Description This is #11- "Memory" for my 100-Theme Challenge: [link]

One day I was discovering the magical contents of this useful Fire Emblem website, and found the music gallery. I came across some Path of Radiance songs and reunited with that beautiful lullaby that Ike's mother sang to him when he was younger, and it was also a special song called the Galdr of Rebirth-- or something like that, it always changed.

But anyway, I thought about it and how the Herons were involved with knowing the words, and this interesting inspiration struck me. So I got this idea in mind and captured it on paper before it went away like many ideas do.

My friend who watched me work on this whole thing did wonder why I gave Ike wings here. Well, it's more for the imagery of the herons and how they have dreaming-ful wings.

So, this may seem out of character for how I depict Ike, but still he's got an interesting background, and I thought this may be an interesting take on him for a bit.

I'm still pretty bad with poses where people are supposed to be lying down or sleeping like that, but it's the best I was able to do. Not to mention, Ike's bum's a little off somewhere... But still, I wanted to at least make the dream-like expression work out perfectly.

Did it? I'm not sure. ( ` ~`);

Sleep well, Ike. Even heroes in your caliber need this kind of rest. You deserved it.

Here's what that song sounded like: [link]
(The first part is Ike's sis singing, but the rest is the ever-so magical ending of PoR. Enchanting, no?)

"Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when again it's morning will wash away

Here it's safe and here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from all harm
Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true
Here is the place where I love you."

~Rue's Lullaby, The Hunger Games soundtrack

Good night, Ike... Sweet dreams...

Yeah.  Rue's Lullaby is one of my favorite tracks.  It really gives a sentimental feel to the bloody Hunger Games, and made me cry at one point.

Ike's inner consciousness, or did Pit and his mom had an affair one point? :3

Something around the sides of his consciousness, yes.
That, or if Pit and Elena really had an affair, Ike should be questioning. ( ' O')
