>One long winded explanation later, you have a few answers, but not the ones you're looking for
>The first immortal was said to have unlocked the secret of eternity after discovering the place it later painted
>Legend holds that it gave the gift of immortality to two beings, who became the first alicorns
>Then it vanished without a trace
>Many tales exist as to what happened to it, many focusing on a battle with a being of destruction; of the void
>There were even some who claim that in its vanishing, it left a piece of itself behind, in case it returned
>But these folk tales were from before the crystal empire
>However they originated, the only piece remaining to support the legend was the painting before you
>It was treated like a relic before it too vanished into legend
>Looking at it now fills you with a sense of awe and mystery
>If this really is the original, it's beyond priceless
>Then you remember why you ventured here
>You walk over to the nightstand, and just like before, there's a picture
>It shows you and a certain unicorn in front of this very castle
>You look happy in it
>You show it to Chrysalis, and she looks shocked
That's... You...?
>You can only nod and set the picture back down
>Then a thought strikes you
>If this really was once your room in your own castle, then you would have made a secret passage
>And it would be directly under the center of the bed
>...
>Sure enough, there's a trapdoor, right where you'd always wanted one
>You enter down it, climbing down a ladder
>When you reach the bottom, you grope around for a light switch
>...
*click*
>You find it, and a vast room opens up before you
>Full of whiteboards, tables, and drawn posters
>And an open door on the far end, flooded with light and too far to see out of
>You wish that was it
>All the whiteboards were smeared and splattered in blood
>Papers were everywhere but on the tables, thrown everywhere from a struggle
>Between the tears and bloodstains on the posters, it was impossible to discern what was on them past some sort of design contained in a circle
>You walk down the room, icy fear gripping you tightly
>If you wanted to scream, you probably couldn't
>So you walk further down the long room
>The same thing is around you
>Blood and signs of a struggle
>Some of the whiteboards were cracked in half
>You reach the door, and outside is the Crystal Empire gardens
>The fear and panic still have a hold on you, but you wonder how it looks from the other side
>This door may well be hidden in a hedge
>Shaking your head, you decide to go back to Chrysalis and get away from this place
>When you do, you look to the right
>There, in the corner away from the door, is a body
>It sat slumped over, and had a streak of bloodstained floor in front of it
>You start trembling from the fear now
>But something compels you to get a closer look
>Maybe it was because the body looked human
>You get closer and start to notice things
>Like the fact that it was a human
>And its clothes looked familiar
>But the final shock didn't come until you get close enough to see the face
>That's when you try to scream
>You try, but no sound comes out
>Shaking violently, you do your best to run away, falling over many times in the process
>You don't even look at where you're going, and run into a dumbfounded Queen Chrysalis
>She looks down at you, and immediately backs up
>Which is good, because now she's out of the way
>You race up the ladder and back into the bedroom, where the bed had been moved over into the corner
>You scramble onto the bad, and back yourself into the corner, curling up into a ball
Nononononononono
>You mutter to yourself
>It's all you can think
>What you saw was just so...
>Wrong
>How can it be true??
>It can't
>It can't be you
>It's wrong
>Wrong, wrong wrong
>That can't be you down there
>You're here
Nonononononono.....
