Description
"Surf the silver waves on silken highways,
Painting flowing braids in sunken byways.
Spacious flow emboldened, ever climbing,
Gracious form in solace intertwining.
Stay by my side,
Soft songs in harmony.
Stay by my side,
Companions kind now,
You and me.
-MiracleofSound, Stay By My Side
Soothing Song, Asteria of the Dusk, soothsayer, healer, mender, bard on a quest for reconciliation.
Commission done by the illustrious AndromedaDualitas

Soothing Song is a member of the pegasus race, humanoids with feathered, angelic wings that dwell in flying cities shaped of cloud and color, on which they can walk like solid ground, and who's culture and appearance are both heavily based on ancient Greece. Once a ministrel, healer and comforter, someone who would spend her life curing wounds both physical and emotional through magic, song and therapeutic conversation, she took the vow of now banished goddess of the moon two centuries ago, and changed her race to a so-called Night Guard, becoming an unaging daughter of night, lunar mystic and dreamwalker atop everything else.
After the goddess' terrible betrayal that sparked a war in which she shamefully participated she now wanders the world magically disguised as her former self, wandering through the dreams of mortals, fending of nightmares, curing wounds, soothing conflict and disharmony, mending fears and singing others to their sleep where she can, both out of gentle, motherly love for others and a desire to repent for what she has done in the war.
Imagine perhaps a Greek oracle mixed with a Buddhist Boddhisatva, a nurturing, gentle saint, constantly shrouded in mystery yet always warm, smiling and infallibly polite, moving with otherworldly weightlessness and grace (she elects to never actually walk, for once, instead using her feet to constantly hover just above the ground), and yet carrying a deep-seeded sadness that never quite leaves her.
