Is been a month since Robin returned back to life and to his friends, he felt very happy to be able to live as his own person ready to face anything life would throw at him except one thing: fatherhood.
Having a family with his wife Lucina was wonderful but not even being the greatest tactician in the kingdom could help him with his little girl Morgan. Taking care of her was harder than planning strategies against massive armies or fighting an evil dragon, such as: changing her diapers, waking up in the middle of the night to calm her cries, feeding her, etc.…. Lucina told him he shouldn't overwork himself to death because she can help too, but he still felt bad about leaving her alone to raise their daughter when she was first born and he wasn't there. He wanted to make up for his mistake because he just couldn't stand to see his wife carry anymore burdens like she had in her future past and when she came to this world.
While resting in the library after completing trading documents between Ylisse and Valm, the blue haired princess came to check how her "beloved" was doing... "Dear you're overworking yourself too much. I'm starting to get worried" she said with concern to her husband's wellbeing.
"It's ok, I'll be fine" he said with a false confidence knowing he was overdoing himself.
"Yes, being a father is still very new to me but I know I'll get better at it. Improving is another part of being a tactician".
"Cause I know when you're lying, so tell me what is truly troubling you"? "Is this about Validar again or Grima?"
Seeing Lucina with eyes filled with worry broked his false smile and decided to just come clean with his feelings "Neither, is myself do i have what it takes to be a good father? I lost my memory when Grima first tried to possess me and only got 3 years of knowledge."
"Is true that you lost everything of who you were but even after how everything played through, you became a wonderful person who helped all of us including me." she said in a sweet tone while taking a seat next to him.
His wife's kind words made him remember the first time he first met Chrom the man who changed his life, who give him a place to call home when he had nothing but a sword, tome and war tactics. "It's true i may not remember who i was before in the past but i know who i am and what's important to me"
"See? Don't worry about having regrets from the past like I did, just do what you showed me".
"Showed you? What do you mean?"
Look towards the future.
"The future…?"
"Yes not to be stuck in the past or be filled with frustration or regret but to be positive and work to make tomorrow better. That was my strength during the war as a princess fighting to save the world. But is also something precious to me cause it allowed me to have a good life now and become a mother".
"Lucina..."
"Thank you I really needed to hear that."
"You're welcome dear love you"
Love you too.
He felt extremely relieved hearing his wife's important words, reminding him that even back when he first started being the Shepherd's Tactician victory was only obtained cause he had everyone to support him. Just like he had Lucina to support him in having a good future with their daughter Morgan.
