@Blitz Boom @Illiad Easle Spiral would approach Nexus quietly, looking down at her curiously. She wasn't sure what to make of this - nor was she sure why Aurum was calling herself Nexus. "We freed you - though, one of us died trying to save you." Spiral would say to her, walking up to her carefully. "Are you okay? We are here to help." she spoke, looking off to the others. She would communicate with Briar and Last mentally, "It seems like she has a split personality if I had any guesses..."

@Catpone Cerberus Sombra didn't understand how and why ponies started moving celestial bodies. He never understood that. "If the elements are bound to them as long as they are alive - then the best course of action would be to merely kill them, breaking the binding. Though, I do not know if they are bound or not. I do not feel the way that I do to them, as I do the two sisters. It is likely the two sisters brainwashed them to service their goals without them realizing it, though killing them may just be a good precaution anyway just incase the elements themselves are binded....though one could be killed, breaking the link between all 6? As for the Sun and Moon, that, I have no idea..." he said with a slight groan. There was so much to consider.

@Blitz Boom I wouldn't really be able to get to it until the weekends anyway, don't worry about it!

@Catpone Cerberus Sombra would continue reading, and the same question would eventually come across into his mind. Either way, he had to steal the Elements of Harmony for himself and experiment upon them for himself. Perhaps the idea of them being used as "goodness" was merely reflecting the wielder's desires, framed in the minds of those who used them? He would look to Una, and suggest that it was possible this was the case - and if it was, he could use their own weapons to defeat the so called "Mane 6" and the Two Sisters. Though, he would wish to somehow copy Celestia and Luna's ability to raise the Sun and Moon, before getting rid of them permanently.

Tough to say. Chrysalis and Sombra are the ones I think would be most successful. Humans have a lot of love and conflict to feed on - while the humans are also severely incapable of resisting Sombra's corrupting influence.

They definitely would, most likely. I imagine that Sombra would raise his army of people to conquer the power structure of the world - they wouldn't have the magic to resist his armies, for one. Sombra would rule with absolute power over the human world.

@Princess Silky Has asked me to request a sketch of Star Silk here - she wanted me to request you to sketch her character. At your leisure!

@Catpone Cerberus Of course, Sombra was fully disguised as a regular dark gray stallion so even if they were overheard he wouldn't overtly be noticed by anyone out of the blue - at least, he would accept Una's responses and say that for any one individual to wield the Elements of Disharmony - would probably also have to be the one that created them in the first place. Although Sombra also stated he believed it to be possible that the Elements of Harmony and Disharmony have no known creator and were merely created by existence itself as a natural force of balance in the world - though he added that he had no proof to back up that suggestion. He would then look for books about the Elements of Harmony, and when he found them - he'd return and give them various books to dead on the Elements of Harmony. Though he didn't know exactly what to expect from the validity of the information that was contained within them.

It does have a lack in presence. It hasn't really brought that much activity to the forum/fandom yet. I hope something big can be done that breaks people's expectations in a positive way. G5 has a terrible release schedule. Releasing things biweekly for TYT and every couple of months for MYM.

Pretty much what I expected - which isn't a bad thing.

Am thinking about work tomorrow.

Pinkie Pie, Starlight Glimmer, and Twilight are over-rated. Princess Twilight I don't have much fondness for.

@Blitz Boom Spectra would observe Gronth's reactions towards her armor with great interest. It was very interesting to see others fondle over her possessions - if only it is to exchange them for other possessions. Spectra didn't functionally need to have multiple sets of guard armor like that. She had enough stuff in her collection as it was - and so little purposes for it. The armor sets she had saved for herself? Those were in pristine condition, and right after this - she felt it fitting to infiltrate the guard themselves to learn about the inner workings of the guard. After returning to check on Veil, and hoping that she had something of great value to give her in turn. Looking to the welding mark that was spoken of, Spectra would observe closely and listen as Gronth tested the armor's validity. To his reactions, she would nod in an approving fashion. "It pleases me to see that you are able to verify the authenticity. Proves to me that you know exactly what you are doing." she spoke in a calm and approving manner as she'd see him examine the other various wears of armor. She'd step back slightly, allowing for him to take his time to examine the armor. She remained calm and composed throughout the whole ordeal - not revealing anything about her name or her nature. Spectra wasn't here to make friends, after all. The less said about herself, the better. Upon his final comments after he had taken the time to present further information upon reviewing them further she would nod in understanding. "I want something truly powerful and special. Something that very few have ever had in their possession. To give you an idea of the level that I am speaking of - I want something that is powerful enough for me to walk through the core of a burning star without a sweat across my brow. If this selection of armor is not enough to satisfy such an exchange, I have other things I could add to my part of the whole. But as for right now, I wish to know if you know of such a thing and if it exists, I would like to have it." she said in a respectful, yet understanding manner. "This armor that you see here I have collected over the years and polished to the utmost perfection I could. I am a collector of many many things, and my priorities have changed - so I am looking for something that I could use in extreme conditions that most ponies would consider to be absolutely impossible." she said with a matter of fact tone in her voice. "Of course, if you do not have such armor with you - you probably have something that is of paramount value. If not something that I can wear upon me - than I seek something that is powerful enough to use in direct combat against the most skilled of magical warriors. Deadly artifacts that have powerful offensive power." she spoke, and would step back, allowing Gronth to answer to her statements. Spectra was very curious about how Gronth may react to her statement. "I am very pleased of your assessments of what I have to offer you. It will get whoever buys them very far in whatever goals they wish to achieve with regards to infiltration. An amulet of power, of sorts, is also welcome. I come with great wealth, and great trade to offer Kludge Town. Whatever you have to offer me - I am listening." Spectra would say with a bow of her own. (At the base) Magloria would feel the waves of Veil's emotions approaching her. The fireball would hit Magloria - interestingly enough, Veil would observe the exact same reaction to spells cast on her as with Spectra. There would be a blue pulse shimmering throughout her whole body as the fireball had hit her. A new spell had just been downloaded into Magloria's mind. To Veil's statements, the mare would scoff at her word. Suddenly a blue portal would appear to Magloria's side, and she'd bring out a large dangerous looking Rapier and bring it to Veil's neck quickly. She didn't strike at Veil, though. It was an act of intimidation. Magloria were wanting to find out what had happened. Magloria's icy gaze would look into Veil's eyesockets directly. "This is really the best she has to offer? Guarding her collection? She's even more desperate than I thought." Magloria said with a sneer before her face grew even more cold. "Stand down, if you know what's good for you. Tell me the date - and tell me where she is." Magloria would say, assuming complete command over the situation. She was very direct and right to the point. Magloria had a lot she wanted to know - but the date was the most important thing. How long had she been frozen for? Veil could see the Crystal Armor adorning her elegant frame - she really did look the part of a crystal guard. A lot had been rolling through her mind in an instant, but she had to find her bearings.

@Blitz Boom @Illiad Easle Spiral was silent on the talk about Chrysalis. She wasn't technically alive when all of that happened - nor did she experience modern day Equestria at all. From what she gathered of it, it seemed fairly utoptian and life was peaceful. In a way it was something to be envied - yet the laziness and complacency of the ponies showed that modern Equestria had lived in an erroneous false reality coloured by their easy life. Spiral didn't have much else to say, and simply nodded to Coxa and thanked her for her time. Upon hearing Aurum's word's, Spiral's ears would perk up despite it being a mental affect - "Coping mechanism, most likely. She is repeating what she said earlier...as if in a catatonic state. Like a turtle going back into it's shell." Spiral would say to Last, quietly.

@Catpone Cerberus Sombra would ponder more about the Elements of Disharmony, eventually discarding the idea because Greed, Betrayal, Avarice, Deception, Despair, and Cruelty were the exact opposite of what he wanted. He wanted the populace to be loyal to him and him alone. He did not want a disunited populace who would hypothetically be aware of how he achieved power. He wanted to be seen as the liberator. The one who set them all free - perhaps he could use the Elements of Harmony themselves to achieve that? But, how would he take the reigns of the Elements of Harmony and use it against those who oppose him? He didn't understand that part of it at all, but at the very least the idea of the Elements of Disharmony was discarded. He would discuss this with Una. If Una told him about the idea of the Elements of Disharmony being wielded by one single individual he would find himself curious about that. If such a thing existed, he would obviously want to see it for himself and see if there was a way to take advantage of it - however, he told her that being that one individual would directly go against his goals of being seen as the "liberator" of the ponies from the two sister's rule. While Sombra was a very dark and easily enraged soul - he wanted to be seen in a positive light so that his power may rule for all of them. Using overt oppression and force constantly just goes against that, and undermines the very foundations of what he wanted to achieve. Sombra wasn't a directly morally good sort - but he wasn't someone who just destroys and conquers for no reason.

Very funny episode, I liked it!

Are they really that amazing?

It's a waste of time. I wish humans didn't have to sleep.

High taxes, terrible roads, nothing to do around here, and general depressing atmosphere.

Feeling good, but am a bit worn out from work.

@Catpone Cerberus Sombra head read up on "The Pillars". They were something that was from before his time, though he did not know much about them. All he knew was mere legend, and it seemed that they had uncovered a lot more about them recently. He saw that Starswirl was the leader, which was to be expected. Though this didn't answer his question as to how the Elements themselves were created - the whole location of the tree itself was something that as also unknown. Perhaps he could find a way to harness it's power for himself - but he absolutely needed to get the elements out of the picture if he was to rule Equestria. He couldn't have those around standing in his way. As he read, he would read up more onto what the elements of harmony exactly embodied. It seemed like some over-glorified comic book thing to him, but it was real. He wondered if there was a thing called the elements of Disharmony - and if it was possible to use them against the Elements of Harmony? He would read more.

@Rikifive I am somewhat new to this browser so I don't know how to disable extensions. Ticking the plugin off makes it slightly better though, from what I've noticed.

His charisma, energy, and passion is second to none. Could he be better? Of course. I don't agree with him on everything, but against all the rest this country has to offer - there is zero hesitation in me to say that I would proudly vote for him again. I would say that he is the best president this country has ever had.

@Rikifive @Jeric Disabling the plugin seems to improve the problem a lot. Seeing as it's not seen in anyone else - it's most likely my browser. I use Vivaldi.
