Oof! Goodness, but that is heavy...
linkIngridvolume_up
Could you grab the feed over there, Mercedes?
linkMercedesvolume_up
Yes, of course. Give me one moment please...
linkIngridvolume_up
Please don't push yourself if you're tired. I can do it.
linkMercedesvolume_up
Well, we managed to finish. I'm so sorry for leaving the bulk of the work to you.
linkIngridvolume_up
Do not worry about it. You're always helping me with so many other things.
linkIngridvolume_up
Besides which, I'm used to taking care of horses. It barely even feels like work anymore.
linkMercedesvolume_up
I suppose House Galatea is famous for its pegasus knights.
linkIngridvolume_up
Yes, though they are costly to care for, so we don't keep many.
linkIngridvolume_up
When I was a child, I often helped my older brothers tend to both our pegasi and our horses.
linkMercedesvolume_up
I forgot that you have brothers.
linkIngridvolume_up
Yes, my eldest brother acts as our father's advisor, while the other serves a different family as a knight.
linkMercedesvolume_up
You must have been very close. It's wonderful.
linkIngridvolume_up
I suppose, though we hardly ever played together. The age gap was just too great.
linkIngridvolume_up
My eldest brother in particular was incredibly strict with me. Whenever I would try to go horseback riding through the hills, he would say...
linkIngridvolume_up
"How dare you do something so dangerous! What if something happened to you?!"
linkIngridvolume_up
What's worse, my father agreed with him. It kept me from getting out on too many adventures as a child.
linkIngridvolume_up
Thinking back on it, I understand their concern. I was the only one in the family to bear a Crest, after all.
linkMercedesvolume_up
I'm not so certain your Crest was the reason for their concern.
linkMercedesvolume_up
I think they were worried simply because they love you.
linkMercedesvolume_up
You're the youngest, yes? It's only natural for them to want to keep you safe.
linkIngridvolume_up
Well, it is true we had a mostly good relationship, but I don't know if I'd go that far.
linkMercedesvolume_up
I'm not so sure. They would have treasured you all the same even if you didn't bear a Crest.
