FlashMod: Been on a drawing funk lately and have had trouble keeping myself motivated on getting ideas on what to draw.

Have a Page instead.

“First Encounter”

Page, while heading over to interview Ember Skies, accidently is met with Flash Wind (Her Son). After an awkward moment, she finally gets a chance to meet Ember. 

This is one of the few moments that she got to speak to her son in person. Many thoughts rushing through her head.

I apologize for the crappy background!

Diary Entry #32

Date: 04/14/2011

 So… My journey on learning more about my Napfény continues. I’ve been on a deep search for any that know of him. Whether it be friends, or maybe family members that adopted him. To my surprise, I managed to discover that he was adopted by a mare named Soaring Skies. She lives in a small town called Irwind, just a little south from the common towns in Equestria.

 I decided to take a trip there. A reliable source helped with the address to her place too.

Upon arrival, I was able to visit her. Luckily she was home for me to ask my questions.

Here’s some of the interview.

 Me: "I think I'll go into the first question to at least start the subject. As I just heard you mention. You said you are his mother?"

 Soaring: "Yes...well...not entirely...My actual Son, Ember found him throught the town as he was causing a ruckus as he normally does...can never stay out of trouble that boy, but he found Flash Wind wandering and decided to invite him to our home. Well...he stayed with us for so long that I eventually decided that maybe I could adopt him as my own, by what he told me he never really knew his family...the poor boy..."

 Me: "So next question. What was his lifestyle here? Was he more outgoing? Open? Friendly? Or was he something different in his younger years here?"

 Soaring: "Well...a bit of both...he was a very quiet Colt when he was brought to our family, spent a great deal of time staying away from myself and my husband, though he spent great deals of time with my son, they hit it off pretty quickly....though...he still doesn't really speak to my husband...not that...he speaks a lot as is"

 Me: "I heard from a source that your son was the one who taught Flash to fly. Could you maybe describe his dream or career path? Maybe your past career as well?"

 Soaring: "Well...Ember is still finding himself, he's always spending large amounts of his time off the ground if it's at all possible...and as for my occupation… are you familiar with the 'Marlem Cloud Trotters'?" 

 (At that point I mentioned about hearing of them during my stay in Equestria. She mentioned to me about how they did a lot of daring maneuvers and stunts for their shows. She seemed like she enjoyed it up until she had to retire from a major wing injury. At that point I was filled with excitement on knowing more about my son)

 Me: "Now that you mentioned your past career. Do you think Flash got inspired by you to do his air shows?"

 Soaring: "Well...if you'd like my honest opinion...I don't know...Flash was always a but of a distant child, even when he opened up to me and my family, however he did take large interests in my old career when he found out...I'm more surprised my own little Ember didn't ask about it sooner honestly. He's a good kid...and I'm glad to have had him in my life for as long as I did ma'am"

It seemed like her past influence most likely sparked that love of flying that my son now has. Afterward, I asked a few more questions. I even asked her about his scar that he has on his left side. That story was hard for Mrs. Skies to explain to me, even harder for me to hear.

 My Napfény sure is an interesting one. So many stories about him that I missed out in.

I’m now staying the night at her place, since it had become very late. She provided the room that Flash had. It’s amazing to see all these memories of my son in this room. So many stories to be told.

 It’s made me ponder for a bit though… Should I… … tell Mrs. Skies the truth?

 Should I reveal to her about Flash being my son?

 I’ve had this heavy weight on me for years now. Even more about having a child in the first place. I wonder how my Beloved would respond to this if he were in this situation. I wish he was still here.

 …

 …

 …

 Tomorrow…

…

 …

 I’ll reveal the truth tomorrow…

 She deserves to know it.

 With love,
