[While inside the orb, it probably looked a little impressive but nothing to write home about, on the outside however, the cut ice refracted the bouncing lights into a multitude of rainbows, casting them onto every surface. The tree, the people, the grass...
And the bugs that flittered to and fro, transporting wishes diligently, their wings caught that light, reflecting it back as flashes of red or greens or blues, making the entire thing even more spectacular. Around them, a crowd was quickly gathering, mrumurs of interest growing with the occasional gasp and clapped hands.
It was a pointless bit of magic, if you looked at it from the pragmatic lens of a battle-hardened mercenary. But as Byleth looked about himself, seeing the happy faces of those watching the spectacle, he couldn't help but feel that it wasn't pointless at all, wasn't a waste of time and effort...
It filled him with a satisfaction he'd never find on the battlefield.]
