Going to the Veins wasn't something that I did often. I found that the place held a certain melancholy feel to it that made my heart ache. I knew why, though. I couldn't go there without looking at the Earth God's shrine. And I couldn't look at his shrine without thinking about my brother. I couldn't think about Hototo without reliving the events that lead to his death. I could still see Gaucho in my mind as he attacked my brother, I could still hear my mother's scream and her pleas to take her instead. Obviously it wasn't something that I liked to think about, but in the times where I found myself missing my brother so badly I would go there and I would stand in front of that shrine and I would think about Hototo. Sometimes I would talk to him like he was really there and it wasn't just a slab of stone that I was talking to. And I would always end by telling him that I loved him and I would ask the Earth God to tell him for me just in case he couldn't hear me.
Normally I would fly up and land at the shrines, but for some reason I didn't this time. I walked up the path and as I did I thought about the very last time I'd walked up it. I'd practically dragged a very reluctant Cathun with me because I'd wanted to save him. He'd disappeared shortly after and I still wondered about where he'd gone and hoped that he would be okay. I decided as I walked up the path that I would pray for him even though I knew that he would hate to know that I did. He was such a jerk, but he was still one of my friends.
"Show me the way."
"Oh!" Never before had I gone to the shrines to find someone already there. Even when I'd met Cathun he was already on the path leaving the shrines. "I'm sorry, I didn't know there was someone already here." I apologized. I knew that prayer was something sacred and so very personal. "I'll ... I'll come back later." I offered before glancing at the Earth God's shrine. It would be there later, so i didn't mind waiting. I didn't want the mare (why did she look familiar?) to cut her time short just because of me, but I also hoped she'd say that she didn't mind and that we could share the shrines.
