- >You are a magician
- >The best of your kind
- >One of the king's finest magi
- >And you are still confused
- >You are mulling over the last day's events
- >They still befuddled you
- >The towns people complained of not being safe
- >Whisperings of a dragon around the village
- >Your king had sent you to deal with this dragon
- >You had scoffed him at first
- >Dragons didn't exist....
- >Or do they?
- >When you arrived on the scene, your nose smelled brimstone
- >You should have left then
- >You met a foul beast whose breath could have scorched you
- >He looked at you, and roared
- >Swiping at you with claw and talon
- >You feared the worst and that it was over
- >A rift must have appeared
- >And you found yourself not quite where you began
- >You look around
- >It's like this place had been crafted from the finest silks of the Far East
- >All of the colors vibrant and brilliant
- >You have been sent to this place where horses were able to talk
- >And they look...quite odd
- >As if someone had...bewitched them
- >Some of them look like the Pegasus you'd read from mythology
- >Others looked like they had a narwahl's horn attached to their heads
- >And then there were those that appeared as you'd remembered horses...on Earth
- >Or wherever you've found yourself
- >Your legs stretch and you begin walking toward the first establishment you see
- >You are stopped by a pony with a constellation on her flank
- >You bring your hands up and speak your incantation (as if it would work here as opposed to home.)
- >But, a great energy enters your throat
- >You feel empowered, as you speak the words
- Vinctum catenis in!
- >Chains appear around her
- >Her form looks scared, her cloak and hat on the ground
- >She keeps trying to illuminate her horn
- >But the poor thing cannot defend herself
- >You're then wracked with an epiphany
- >An equine that talks
- >And moreover
- >One with magic?
- >You're not sure what's more surprising
- >That a horse is here begging for its...her, life?
- >Or that your magic actually works
- >You reassure yourself that this must've been a fluke of this world
- >So you test the next step
- >A mind reading spell
- >You hope you remember the incantation well enough
- >It is a tad more exotic
- Milí̱ste to myaló sas!
- >And lo, she began to speak her thoughts
- >She babbles on how she fears for her life
- >She looks shocked
- >You decide to listen to what she says, realizing she may well have some sentiment of intelligence
- >Imagine such a thing, a steed that can speak its mind
- >"Please, I don't care what you do, bearded monkeycorn! Just don't hurt me! Is it my body you want? The great and rut-able Trixie awaits your beckon call!"
- >You are intrigued
- >She would offer such a thing to you
- >You wouldn't ever engage in coitus with an equine
- I will not engage in intercourse with thee. But, if you will listen, I'll make an offer to ye.
- >"Anything!"
- >She's on the brink
- Would you like to be my fledgling?
- >"An...An assistant to a great practitioner of magic as yourself?"
- Yes.
- >Wait a moment
- How didst thee know of my position?
- >"Well, it's an antiquated term but-nevermind, I accept!"
- >"What shall I call you?"
- Thou shalt call me....Anonymous.
- >"Alright, I'll stick wiht Anon for short."
- >You chuckle heartily to yourself
- >This was going to be the beginning to a rather length journey
- >You needed to discover what this place is, who its rulers must be
- >There were so many questions to ask
- >And you needed to get as much of a start as was possible
- >You attempted to mount this 'Trixie'
- >She looked at you like you were insane
- Do humans not ride you or your kind?
- >"Hoo-mans?"
- Humans. And, I take it no?
- >"No...look, I hate going to her, but we should see my friend, Twilight Sparkle."
- >"She'll have an idea of what's going on for you."
- >You all start walking toward the nearby village
- >You stop as you remember with odd amnesia
- >You have not got your staff either
- >You will have to make a new one
- >You knock on the door to a tree
- >A tree with a door was a new concept indeed
- >A mare approximately similar in stature to Trixie appears with a beaming face
- >"Good afternoon, my name is Twilight Spark-....what are you? And Trixie, what are you doing here?"
