That’s the plan :D
Don’t worry, We couldn’t touch her if we wanted to… ;)
*The orb leads a winding path through the forrest. The terrain becomes increasingly difficult to cover. One final step and the ground gives way, leaving the little filly neck deep in a mire.*
MUA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!
*The orb vanishes with a slight pop, leaving the filly in pitch darkness.*
We suppose you did technically complete your end of the bargain (even if you ruined Our plans), so it would be in poor form for an Empress to violate Her agreement.
In related news, We just fiddled the numbers in your bank’s computers around (where would an incorporeal pony get bits anyway?). If anypony notices and blames you, be sure to tell them “Nightmare Moon did it!” That’s totally a believable excuse ;)
Don’t you wish it was like how it was before? We were so powerful together, so strong, so beautiful. Everypony looked upon us with the awe that Our night should have always inspired.
I’m a spirit pony guide. I know the safe way through the forest. You can trust me. Follow me!
*A glowing orb appears where the pony shadow once stood. It starts to slowly move away.*
Yes, yes, We are wonderful, glorious, All Hail Nightmare Moon, etc.
Why did you charge Gilda shipping now, hmm?
Umm…. We must admit confusion. What are you doing running around all free willed, and not back in your box?
She was supposed to think the element of loyalty wanted to be friends with her again. She was to fly with all haste to Ponyville, but when her former friend disclaimed any knowledge of the gift, and continued to act in animosity, she would be sure to fly into a rage. An enraged griffon would quickly rid Us of the current holder of the element of loyalty (and possibly of the holder of the element of laughter).
When the elements are gone, We will be one again. WE MUST BE.
But you could take Us back before then… LUNAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!
No, no, We require a LIVING puppet…
If anypony wishes to volunteer, We can promise the required lobotomy will not be unnecessarily painful.
