Purple Foal: Thats a Great idea! I'm so smart! Teacher will be so happy he will give me a great big hug =D *horn glows, taking the memory, holding it up to the magic stream* Teacher Teacher, look what I got you! *orb shoots up and vanishs into the magic*
*Amethyst somehow managed to escape the guards, but now is utter lost in the Everfree forest, when the signal come* Hrm... whats this? -Amethyst
*The orb contains a copy of Nightmare Moon’s memories from the time she spent inside the abyss beast. Amethyst is flooded with memories that were enough to drive even Nightmare Moon temporarily insane.*
((ooc: No, I won’t tell anypony what actually happened to her in there, but whatever you imagine it was, it was worse.))
Purple Foal: *the foal blinks, then smiles wide* I can make Teacher happy? =D Yes! Yes tell tell! Teacher will be so happy with me when I share secret! *the magic is constant to him, but wavers every now and then with the passing health of the creator*
*Nightmare Moon puts her hoof to her forehead, and pulls out a small sphere, a representation of a series of memories.*
Here. *She hands him the orb.* You know, he might like it even more if you pass it to him without looking at it first. That would show him that you’re loyal, and not greedy and wanting the glory for yourself.
DD: *blinks, looks up, eyes widen* Dream!!! *rushs over and hugs her leg* Oh my Dream... I have missed you so. *nuzzling, glares at the Bowtie one* He though it would be his precious Twilight, but no, your our savior, I knew it! =D
Old Stalion:... they of course represent the portions of his love... the main ones... the older the more mature the love is... yours and Twilights have been even for a while... but that one... *the small Arcel standing slowly from its sitting positon*... should have never been more then a childhood cursh... *it turns to her, eyes glowing*
Purple Foal: You hurt Teacher! *stop, voice distorted, stomp actually causes a shaking* How dare you hurt our Teacher! We love him!
Hmm… *She ponders the situation carefully.*
*Thinking to herself.* We could simply erase the thoughtform, but We don’t have time to work out what the repercussions would be to Arcel’s psyche… We should have asked Philemon to come with Us, he’d know what to do… But perhaps… Yes!
*Out loud, to the purple foal.*We’re sorry, We handled that badly. We would like to make it up to you. Would you like to hear a secret of Ours? It’s about something old, the oldest thing anypony has ever heard of. Your teacher likes secrets about old things, doesn’t he? We’ve never told it to anypony. If We tell it to you, you could tell your teacher, and impress him with your knowledge, and he might like and respect you more.
*Normality seems to end there, the area she enters is a huge red area, the door and door frame being alone, no sign of the hall around the sides of the door, but the most prominant feature is that the area looks like some giant red stone Colloseum, where there are 3 Arcels, the Old Stalion moving in Behind Nightmare and closing the door, one Arcel looks normal enough, though he is wearing a purple bow tie, beside him is one that actually shares the coloring of Dark Descent, except the hair is not flaming, both of these two are huddled on the floor on one side, In the center is what looks like a little colt version of Arcel, his coloring being purplish, but with a beam of magical energy pooring onto him from above, orange in color, like the Amethyst's eyes, the resulting magic feeding into the small colt is making him look far more dangerous then he should*
Old Stalion:... a spell that doesn't trap the mind.... it conquers and twists the heart..... a more horrible spell I can not think of then that.
*She faces the colt in the centre.*
Amethyst… Amethyst, can you hear Us? We know you’re there, Amethyst. Are you afraid to face Us? *chuckles.* You should be.
((OOC:... *face hooves but laughs* Silly Nightmare Moon))
Old Stalion:.......... did you just really talk to a door? *shakes head, walks over and turns the handle* Your making this more complicated then it has to be.... Arcel's mind trys to follow some rules of normality... expecialy the hallway.
It’s always better safe than sorry. We might have offended the door by trying to open it without it’s permission.
*She steps through the door.*
*Is staring at the two in their trance*
Munin: Caw! *Translation:10 bits they both come out crazy*
You're on!
((OOC: Ya, I suppose... =( ))
*the spell works, in a flash, she finds herself in a long plante white hallway with non-discript doors, and a single pony sitting there, looking like an older Arcel, with a pipe, an old white Stallion that looks near the end of his days almost*
Old Stalion: *bows head towards her*.... Your not going to find what you seek in the hall of the mind.... Mistress of Shadows..... your destination is deeper... *looks to left, door with a heart symbol on it* This is a spell and taint of the heart... not of the head...
Thank you for your advice.
*She walks over to the door.*
Door, We would like to open and walk through you, if that’s all right.
*She waits to see if the door responds.*
((OOC: Sorry! I had gotten distracted by some other stuff... yes, clone #4 got poofed away in the cloud of magnetite.))
((ooc: Okay! Plot hole repaired!))
*Alarmed at that but torn between memories of the harsher side and the newer side of Nightmare Dark Blitz gives in to the thought that maybe this would get on her good side and takes off. He follows the pony from above, reporting his position to the guards to keep them on track, though not as well as other pegasus would. If there's pegasus among Nightmare Moon's guard they likely outstrip him by a wide margin.*
((ooc: Nightmare Moon’s guards (in fact, her entire castle staff) are anons from Anonvania (the underground settlement of anons she built to harbour refugees from the Great Scootabuse War).))
*coughs a bit, then clings onto her*.... I... I think... Gah! *holds head* He... he's still in there... *tears, hugs onto her again, crying* Make it stop... please make it stop.... ((OOC:... I am somewhat wondering where Twilight Clone #4 went xD))
Arcel!
*She pulls him out of the fountain, then lays him out on the floor. She begins scratching spell lines into the floor with her horn.*
We hope We remember properly how this went…
*She touches her horn to Arcel’s, attempting to enter his mind.*
((ooc:IDK… If Twilight doesn’t want to play her, I guess she got caught in the magnetite cloud and poofed away…))
