From the Journals of Golden Heart, He of Hourglass, Firstclaw of the Clan of Hourglass, Dragon Keeper of Harmony.
Entry #12
(10 weeks after Clan inception)
What is with He of Harmony and delinquent whelps? He went to Strongberg to get the oscillarium ore he needs for the communication matrix in the council chambers. Now he’s coming back with a whelp in tow that apparently has been “terrorizing” the town or should I say the ponies in town for the past few years.
If it wasn’t for the fact that He of Harmony thinks that this may be a dragon that is a natural at Soul songs I would have a problem with the whole situation. He has assured me that he would try to find out the reason for the whelp’s behavior. He already suspects the dragon was orphaned at a young age or has had a past issue with ponies. Either way he had better not mess with the ponies in Ponyville, or he will regret He of Harmony’s mercy. For if that happens and He of Harmony doesn’t punish or punish him harshly enough I will.
Speaking of “problem” dragons I think He of Harmony convinced Quartermaster to annoy me. How he did that is beyond me, given the low level of animosity between the two. For the past week Quartermaster on a daily basis has questioned my motivations for I quote: “Mothering the ‘outsider’ like a wayward hatchling.” Like I’m going to explain to him what He of Harmony means to me.
At least I can look forward to another letter from the Ascended One. Her last letter was a marked improvement from her earlier “reports.” According to He of Harmony she had problems for the longest time being informal with the Sun Princess even after constant reminders to not be so formal. For her letters to improve from “reports” to a more friendly informal letters so quickly… I wonder if I could make the Sun Princess jealous. Sadly, I don’t see that happening. Ruling Equestria for as long as she has probably has made her somewhat immune to such childish notions.
Probably because the relationship is mostly because Spike liked Harmony, and Golden Heart can't actually remember that stuff. I'm not even sure if he can adequately explain it.
Seems that Golden Heart, for all his Golden Heartiness, isn't a particularly good friend to Quartermaster. He's back at "dragon honor" stuff of hiding stuff that might be important.
... Harmony's inability to explain anything in a timely manner is dragon code business, isn't it? He just can't stop himself from hiding things, even things that would be safe or things he needs to tell others (and, like all dragons, would exhibit he actually respects others), just because dragon code says not to tell anyone anything almost all the time.

No he can't... I believe that GH said that in an earlier GJ... He couldn't understand why he was so forth coming with his name...
Um I think you got it flipped if QM knew the importance of Harmony he wouldn't be as disrespectful. I didn't outright say it but Harmony is part of GH's hoard which is something that can end up being explained or taken the wrong way reeeeeeal fast. Also even if they are in a clan together dragons are not going to know everything that is in each others hoards...
GH is just not ready yet to tell QM everything yet not that he is obligated to do so...
Also I did not specify exactly when Harmony set the letter to GH so the lack of info from Harmony could be him hiding info or he may not have had the info at the time that he sent the letter...
As always I appreciate your pointed comments its always helpful...
