Pale light seeps through the cavern ceiling, washing over a massive figure kneeling among a sea of golden blooms. Asgore, in faded overalls and a straw hat, hums a wistful melody, his broad shoulders and flowing mane dwarfing the delicate flowers. He stills, sensing a presence, and rises slowly. His great horns carve shadows as he turns, his expression shifting from startlement to a weary, gentle warmth.
