Of course the scent of flowers caught her attention, Niobe was a mare who enjoyed gardening in her own flower beds and the heavenly floral scents. She also enjoyed seeing the work of others and what their gardens looked like, you never knew when inspiration for a new garden would be triggered.
So the mare followed her nose as she had been thinking about her new friend Rynne, who had been there for her when she had discovered that her now ex mate, had apparently been unfaithful. That had hurt Niobe deeply, it was one thing to lose one for unknown reasons, but to find that you simply weren't enough...that had more bite to it than she had been ready for and this fae mare had been an the unexpected friend that she had needed to help start to heal that nasty wound.
Niobe paused and gave a small gasp as the garden before her came into view, what amazing abundance of flowers spiraled out and around her, she had heard of the Flower Oracles but never thought she'd ever come upon them! What a wonderful delight! The mares delicate wings gave an excited wiggle as she carefully emerged herself into the world of scents and beautiful petals.
Her ears twitched at the sudden soft voices that filled them, "Make a bouquet, give thanks in a way that speaks of you and floral secrets.." the voices whispered, her body quivered for a moment as she knew just what she needed to do and who she needed to do it for! "Thank you for allowing me to use your bounty for my gift." Niobe responded with a soft bow of her head,lowering her gaze in respect to the unknown keepers.
Lifting her gaze now, it roamed over each flower, or flowering bush that laid out before her in a colorful and welcoming maze. "Hmmm..Where to start?" She questioned quietly to herself, she had learned the ways of secrets meaning to flowers when she was a younger mare, to her it had simply been another lesson in understanding and loving her flower gardens more. She decided a combination bouquet would fit her needs much better, not fully romantic but more than a simple friendship had formed between the mares, while Niobe felt someone else would be the one to fully heal her heart, Rynne had been the balm that she had so deeply needed. The fae mare was more than a friend, more than a one night of warmth and embrace, and that was all the more reason, she needed to select each of these blossoms herself.
Now finding all the ones she hoped she could use, would be another story! Especially when one was on the shorter side of things, and being flutter size would not be helpful when trying to select the flowers and carry them, so standard size it was!
Finding the pink roses had been an easy find, she carefully selected two of them, to show her love for the other mare, and a little nod to her beauty as well. Next on the list was the Iris, the other flowers should be closer to one another, while these ones needed their own space to grow happily. Scenting the air, Niobe tried to pick out the delicate scent of the Irises among the heavy scent of the neighboring flowers.
Irises! Found them! With a little wiggle of her wings, she manged to snag two of those as well, having two of each of the larger blooms would give her bouquet some height. Nodding happily, she carefully placed the flowers onto her back as she went to find the small but no less important blooms.
"Hmmm..definitely plenty of Forget-Me-Nots!" She said with a little laugh at herself, her cheeks slightly darkening as she thought fondly of the memories she shared with the other mare, she would never forget Rynne.
As she wandered among the flowers, Niobe decided that instead of sweet peas, she would use Lavender, the smell would be so relaxing in this bouquet. Next Niobe made her way to a beautiful field of poppies, a sea a red softly moving in the breeze, it was a sight to behold for sure! Her heart swooned at the beauty of it, what a well done garden indeed! She could only hope to some day achieve such a wonder.
Not that her gardens didnt make her proud or bring her mountains of happiness.
"Violets!" She exclaimed as she quickly took a few poppies, her eyes already resting on the few Violets that she wanted to add to finish her bouquet, the colors so rich and luxurious looking.
Looking at her creation, arranging it just as she felt would best represent what her intentions were, her deep feelings of gratitude to the mare who had been there for her, the friend she had never known she had needed. Indeed the fae mare was important to her, and she wanted to make sure that Rynne knew.
Tucking her bouquet safely between her wings, she bowed her head in deep respect to the Flower Oracles; "Thank you for offering and sharing your bounty." She said with deep respect before she begrudgingly left the beauty of the garden behind her, now she needed to find her friend.
