The fate of Solaris and his granddaughters have weighed in the back of his mind for some time. Though he had plenty of children that roamed the islands, his fillies were especially important to him. Perhaps it was because they were females? Worthy of protecting and guarding from the worst of the hardness that the fates could bestow. He thought that sending Solaris to the lagoon with her nameless lover would be protecting them. Cullen was strong, his bachelor stallions wore their marks of battle with pride and dignity. He thought he was doing what was best.... until his unannounced visit showed the golden boss's true colors. Anger, fury, distrust, all emotions ran red with aggression and sorrow. He regretted letting Cullen talk him into sending his daughter to the Lagoon, he regretted trusting the bachelor boss's commander to protect his "mate". In one swift and still ultimately unexplained stroke, he had lost not just his daughter, but the fillies she bore as well. For some time, he left these thoughts buried deep beneath the surface, but slowly, such memories found their way of resurfacing. When first the golden cream woman trotted into view, the name Celestria managed to morph her into the cream and white daughter of his late friend. Like Celestria she moved with purpose, her eyes hard and demanding even as she approached him. Only when she stops in front of him, does the once small filly return. Galexia. Emerald eyes blink in surprise as Rougaru takes a step forward to inhale a deep breath of the mare's skin. It was there. Faint with age and dusted by years apart, the once milky sweet scent of his granddaughter clings to the hard eyes of the young mare before him. "Galexia..." For the first time in years the name slips past his lips as she greets him with a warm smile. Softness glitters in his own gaze as he exhales a long breath against the curve of her neck. She continues on, informing him of her own daughter. Silently he nods as she informs him of Xiomara's disappearance. Though the information had been obvious for some time now, to know that after all these years, Galexia had not been that far away. But she had chosen to stay away. Ears fall backwards as she confirms his suspicions. Dark ears perk amid the cream and caramel tangle of his knotted mane, Ash dusted lips press together firmly as the large hessian takes an awkward step towards her. "If it helps, I am not sure I have quite forgiven myself for trusting Cullen and his bachelors when something so precious to me." he confesses, his multifaceted eyes blinking slowly as he continues on. "I never meant to put you or your mother in harm's way. I only hoped that you would be safer there than you were here. I was wrong. I am sorry." he murmurs, stretching his muzzle out towards her own.
