>You see a blinding light, this must be it.
>You must be dead.
>You've been from the pits of Tartarus to the peak of Mt. Zion in a week.
>You can hear a voice.
>"I think he's coming to, grab more of that sugar for him."
"uhhhhhhhhhh"
>You see those familiar purple eyes coming into focus.
"Where is Crius..."
>You can barely mutter your friend's name.
>"He's okay," says Twilight.
>You strain your eyes to see the other side of the room. You see that fragile yellow sense of relief sitting with the mighty warrior Titan.
>You look back at Twilight.
>"..what happened?"
>The Titan stands up.
>"I happened."
 
>The night the Zebra shot you, you fell to the ground.
>Your eyes were closed.
>You were out cold
>But Crius's eyes were opened.
>The Zebra was gone.
>He was in pain.
>But he was alive.
>He ran to you; you were barely breathing.
>He lifted you up and began to run.
>Just kept running
>There were lights ahead.
>Did he finally reach the end of the forest?
>Yes, he did. He can see a village in the distance.
>He runs into the dimly-lit town square and lets out a roar for help.
>Some ponies rush to see the dying human and wounded minotaur.
>"Can't you see this man needs help?" he yells.
>"Somebody help him!"
>You were rushed to the hospital.
>They were able to save you.
>Apparently a much higher dose of that poison was needed to kill a minotaur.
>You thank the Lord for this.
 
>You look back up to Twilight.
"How long I was out?
>"Only a couple of hours, and it's a good thing too. If we didn't do anything..."
>"If yer didn't do nothing then Anon would be out colder than a ice sickle in the winter."
>That familiar orange pony makes her way into the room accompanied by her Cyan friend.
>"Ain't that right sugacube?"
>"I still don't understand, Anon," Twilight remarks.
>"Celestia said you went home, what were you doing in the everfree forest?"
>The Titan groans at that name.
>"Celestia!" Twilight squeals.
>"I should send for her right away, let her know you're back."
>You work through the pain to sit yourself up again.
"Could I have the honors of informing her?"
>Twilight magics over a quill and paper.
>"Sure!"
>You smirk and begin writing down your comments to the princess while Twilight summons Spike.
 
>In Canterlot, a letter appears in a puff of green smoke.
>The Alicorn passively reads through the letter, her face growing more red with every word.
>>Dear Princess Celestia,
>>I have returned from my trials in Tartarus, my Lord has insured my safety, as expected.
>>I am accompanied by a Titan; his name is Crius.
>>During this jurney, I learned something about friendship.
>>I learned that you can always count on your friends, especially if you put them before yourself.
>>Now that I have returned, I will continue my mission assigned to me by God.
>>Crius and I are looking forward to meeting with you on your next trip towards Ponyville.
>>Sincerely,
>>Anonymous.
>The princess is almost fuming at this point.
>She quickly magics herself a scroll and begins jotting down a new note.
>Back at the Hospital, Spike belches out a new letter.
>Twilight eagerly magics it over and begins reading it to you all.
>>Dear Anonymous,
>>I will be coming to Ponyville tomorrow to personally congratulate you.
>>Sincerely,
>>Princess Celestia.
