They were traveling to find an herb satchel the local natives supplied. Muirgen looked over at the mare beside her. She seemed so down beaten, the weight of the world on her shoulders. Did she look that way years ago? And the vibe seemed so blue, or that was the color she could see from the corner of her eye."Do you know who you are or what you want in your life? I sense a void in you, young one."She could see her question had caught her off guard. A perplexed look crossing the pale mare's features, the walls were starting to form."You can't heal others if you aren't healed yourself. While the basics are good to know, belief is what helps with miracles." She offered a warm smile. "And I may know what you are going through."Her eyes took on a distant look as she told her own story, her own personal struggle, and her salvation.
----------"While the problems may be different, the path to healing is always the same," the alicorn said the following day. "Take how we trim the plants we gather," she said as her ferret companion plucked away the brown dead leaves. "Even though we'll dry the plants, we take the time to remove the bad that has no healing properties left. So too will you do this as you travel down the path to healing."She lowered her head to help lift the ferret up to hang the plants from an oak tree branch. "Airing out the past also helps you overcome it. If you keep it bottled up, it will only fester just like the plants will mold if not taken care of properly."The ferret patted her head so she could lower her back down. "Of course, we'll do all of this in a more delicate manner. Spiritual healing takes longer than medicinal healing," she said as she lifted her head back up to smile warmly at the mare in front of her.
She walked around the mare, eyeing her accessories and general appearance. "I suspect those accessories were for attention. How about we lessen the load and simplify?" Felicity instantly went to work at the bangles around the pale mare's pasturns before scurrying up her tail to the feathers tied there."Please don't remove my family's feathers," she said as they fell to the ground. Muirgen swept them up, tucking them in the new herb bag. "Never fear. We'll put them to good use, dear."The earring was removed as well as the herd feathers. The alicorn stood back surveying her friend's dismantling. "By removing the accessories, I've brought you down to your basics. Don't worry, we'll give you a new look, but remember that appearances isn't everything. It shouldn't matter how you look on the outside but how you are on the inside, which would be reflected in how you treat those around you."
