Galmúr tilted his head at Artemis's question, and he slowly shook it "Honestly, being here has felt more home than any other place... but i'm still not sure" he said quietly. Did he want to grow up in this herd, where Stormflash would doubtless be Lead Stallion in the future? he was unsure to say the least. At Sugar's sudden response he gasped, his eyes almost shooting out of his head as he stared at her, speechless for a few moments. "But.. but healing's been your thing forever!" he sputtered in disbelief. "You learned all the techniques and herbs in like three days, and you obviously care a lot about your herbs and patients, and i've even heard my mentor mention something about you having the makings of quite the healer!" he said, his eyes wide as he glanced over at Artemis. Where was this coming from?

Artemis nodded, ''yes I feel the same, I really like it here yet...... '' She looked quickly at Sugar, speechless, ''you...you...what?! You don't want to heal any more! But...why!?''

Sugar looked down at her hooves again. “Ever since Stormflash told me I wouldn’t make a good scout or guard…I’ve been thinking.” Sugar said. “And I see how much fun you guys have when you get to go on patrols….I get bored.” Sugar whispered. “And…Cinnamon told me that….if I wanted to be a healer I couldn’t have mate…or a family” Sugar said. “Now that I know Gus likes me….I want to be with him….but I want to heal….I just….I just don’t know what to do anymore” she said.

Galmúr just had to let out a snort. "Sugar, being a warrior or a scout is not fun. Yes of course it's fun for me, as I have always wished to be such. But it is such hard work. It is grueling" he said quietly. But as she spoke again, his eyes cleared. OH of course! Gus! Hmm... well he certainly didn't want his friend growing up to be an old spinster healer.... he reached over and hugged her. "I don't know either Sugar, but we have so many years ahead of us, maybe you'll find your true calling soon! I'm sure that if you requested to be switched to some other role, it would be respected" he said. ALthough he really wasn't sure at all.

Artemis looked at Sugar, the idea of the young filly being a warrior do not sit right with her, a scout maybe, but definitely not a warrior. But after hearing her explanation Artemis softened, no wonder...... ''Galmúr's right Sugar, there is no hurt in asking to switch rolls.'' She glanced at Galmúr, she too was very unsure of how this would go.

Sugar sighed. "Then I'd have to take the entire test all over again....by myself" Sugar said. "And the only real reason I got this role was because of my abilities with herbs" Sugar said. "I mean, I suppose there is still some more things I need to learn" She pointed out. "A lot of things actually" she admitted.

Galmúr shook his head quickly "OH i don't think so! You already passed it and proved yourself to be worthy of being in the herd! I don't think you'd have to take it again" he said, almost completely sure. Then he tilted his head "Well of course you do have things you still need to learn, it's only been a few days!" he said with a chuckle.

''There definitely will be A LOT for you to learn if you are going to be a scout,'' Artemis said with a smile, ''Wait has it really been only a few days? It feels like we've been here for ages.''

"I know!!" Sugar exclaimed to Artemis. "I honestly really like it here, and I'm glad we took hat test, but it defiantly was hard." She admitted

Galmúr chuckled and nodded "yeah! I know so much has happened... but it really only has been a few days!" he affirmed then nodded again "That test was awesome" he said with a grin.

''It was,'' Artemis responded enthusiastically, ''by the way Sugar, when are you going to make this job change?''

Sugar sighed. "Honestly, I don't know if I am anymore" She said. "Maybe I can still be with Gus, secretly if thats even possible, but I think I realized how important healing really is to me"

Galmúr frowned slightly and shifted "or maybe the Lead Mare will change the rule?" he suggested hopefully.

''Hmm,'' Artemis said in thought, ''well we know that it is never good to do anything in secret, but maybe Galmúr's right. No herd can stay with orthodox traditions forever,'' she pointed out.

"Will you guys come with me?" She asked, hopefully. "After what happened with my last encounter with the lead mare, I don't really want to go alone" She admitted. Suddenly, she pawed at the ground. "And...maybe one of you could ask her for me?" she asked
