Does a mother not bear the sins of her own mother who gave birth to her?
— Moon Goddess
==============
Tears welled in her eyes, shimmering like liquid silver in the moon's embrace, as she grappled with the weight of her failure.
It was in this moment of despair that the spirit of the forest emerged from the shadows of the ancient trees, his form ethereal and majestic against the backdrop of the night.
His presence was a comforting presence amidst the desolation, a beacon of hope amidst the encroaching darkness.
"The Moon Goddess," his voice carried on the breeze, a solemn melody that stirred the depths of her soul. "Your tears are the echoes of the earth's sorrow, but they need not be borne alone."
The Moon Goddess lifted her gaze, her eyes meeting those of the spirit of the forest with a mixture of reverence and despair.
