Preview:
By mid-morning, Ylisstol takes shape against the misty horizon. The pale stone walls that rim the city’s periphery bite into the sky like concentric rows of gleaming teeth. The road the Shepherds travel upon transforms too, from muddy footpaths buried in leaf litter to paved avenues that welcome the horses’ hooves and caravan’s wheels.
Robin is surprised by the effect that seeing the capital again has on her—some pinching in her chest that she wasn’t even aware of loosening at last. She’s not sure when Ylisstol became familiar enough for her to miss it so dearly, but there’s no denying the warm relief that being back brings her now. She missed its cobbled streets, criss-crossed by squealing children chasing after one another; missed the bakery on the corner that slips her an extra turnover each time she pays a visit; missed being cocooned in her bed, her real bed, back in the castle.
Homesickness, a quiet voice within her supplies. She can’t help but wonder if the ache of it is merely new to her since losing her memories or if it is just new to her, period. More than once she’s speculated that the reason no one has ever come asking after her since she lost her memories might be that she never stayed in one place long enough to put down roots…that she never had a home to miss before the one that Chrom gave to her.
Thinking of him draws her eyes back to the castle looming ahead where Exalt Emmeryn is no doubt eagerly awaiting the return of her brother and sister. Words Chrom spoke the night of the assassination attempt echo in Robin’s mind: Emm represents the best of the halidom—the part most worth protecting.

half of an orange.
i don’t need to share my orange.
i am perfectly content
savoring each slice.
giving myself time
to enjoy the peeling process.
but i want to.
life is better shared!
not just savoring,
but contemplating.
fruitful discussions
about the sweetest tasting fruit.
not just peeling,
but teasing.
smiling with the rinds in our teeth
holding faces with sticky hands.
because what a waste
are all these oranges.
with no one to take half.
half of an orange,
one complete moment.
