You should. Only drink water and fruit juice, only put in your body what's healthy for you.

@Blitz Boom Magloria let silence in the air reign after he admitted his defeat. For a few passing moments her eyes simply just seemed to stare within his own as the occasional cold breeze blew past them. He could see the occasionally pulsing blue strands of her mane move slightly with the breeze. At long last however, she smiled distantly. "It pleases me you have some semblance of common sense. Now that you have surrendered - I am going to confiscate all of your belongings on your person. They belong to me now. Especially this..." she spoke as her blue aura grabbed the baton and she looked it over for a brief moment. "I find this most interesting. You are going to teach me about it and you will comply with granting me all knowledge you have about your magic. I'll give you a hint - I only used the magic I did in this area because of my surroundings." she spoke as her magical aura would sift through his form and take anything that wasn't tied down. She wasn't going to take his cape though. "Now that I have my possessions from you, you will comply and tell me everything you have heard about me and what missions you have played in the past. I need details. Who you work for. Who you are. All that, right this instant. Now that you've surrendered to me you are going to stick to your word. Any offensive actions taken against me will be dealt with swiftly. Do I make myself clear? I believe I'm offering you a great deal of tolerance, more so than what you deserved for what you've tried to pull against me here." she spoke, her voice lowering a little bit in it's octave to make her point clear. She was definitely one for clear and concise wording and wasn't taking no for an answer. Above all else though, it wasn't likely that she was going to be harming his cats. "As for my name, if you're so curious? My name is Double Duality." she spoke. Little did he know, this was not her real name. It was an alias she used sometimes. She'd consider herself foolish to reveal her real name.

@Samurai Equine The two of them would walk down the long gravel road leading from the tunnel. As they walked they can see some buildings come into view. The buildings themselves were not what he would expect of the usual construction. Every building had at least three floors and had various shades of red and brown, with a sort of oriental vibe to it. There were plenty of flowers about. He could see some ponies walking about the place, also of the same colors and shades. Most were Earth ponies. "You already stand out here. Not much I can do about that."

@Samurai Equine Ilania looked into his eyes with a predatory grin as she let those words sink within his mind. "I've asked myself the same question a few times. But then I'll ask you this - whatever the case, do you really want to trek all the way back to Equestria, when you've came all the way this far?"

All of them, would definitely be an uneducated person if I couldn't. Everyone in the US should be able to name all the states, period.

Just woke up. Am feeling good.

@Samurai Equine "That means that our society doesn't like to interact with outsiders and we prefer to keep it that way. Believe me, I suggested the idea to her but she is not interested in that. It is a risk far too great to open our society up to the outside world, as we don't know if our stability would allow for that." she replies in a logical fashion.

@Blitz Boom Magnolia silently took in what Soul had spoken of. Such things many others would consider fairy tales but it was clear that they were real. Real just as everything else was in the world, or perhaps even more real because they dwell beyond the boundaries of life and death itself. Whatever the case may be, she definitely understood what Soul had spoken of Mourner's Puppet. When the minotaur had shown himself she'd end up shaking his hand without hesitation. The look on Magnolia's eyes and the way her posture was enough to show that she was no average mare. "I am Moonlight Sparkle. The older sister of Twilight Sparkle. I am here to have my heritage confirmed so that others may believe me, and so I may find guidance on re-uniting with my family after all these years. I understand the situation with Puppet, it is not anything I am used to but it is something that I am prepared to deal with in order to speak to my ancestor, Alluria Sparkle. I heard she was somewhere around here. I don't know where exactly but it seems it's up to Soul to lead me to her or find me someone who can." she then looked into his eyes and would speak, regardless of the minotaur's presence. "Perhaps if you don't feel yourself being respected - You should do something that earns respect from others."

@Samurai Equine (Don't worry about that, it happens.) Illania looked to him as they finally exited the tunnel on the other side of the mountain. He sees something he likely didn't expect to see - that being a large massive plain as far as the eye can see populated by many buildings, with roads leading to various places. The river flows between, and the mountains seemed to curve beyond the edge of the horizon, inwardly. They were now out of earshot of the guards as they walked down a series of steps on the other side of the mountain. "You do not know anything about our society. Our society is to be frank - Xenophobic. That is not to be dismissive of our values, but as a fact. We do not interact with outsiders to any significant capacity. Although I...I work directly for the one who rules this land. I am her eyes and ears of the outside world. I can tell you that Hats aren't a thing here though, oddly enough."

On my stomach with my arm tucked around a pillow.

@Blitz Boom Magloria would stand there and await the results of her attack on the three of them. Upon seeing the snow filled air clear she could see that her attack had somewhat succeeded. Now that the ice had held him down - she had a hold on him in many ways more the one. The special thing being about this ice was that it was a magical construct. Not only that, but it was a construct that she had designed with her own spells after combining aspects of various stolen magics from various avenues. Magloria would march forward, her eyes looking at the three of them with a dead silent glare. Magloria could definitely feel the weakness coming on and staggered slightly but her resolute mind pushed through the fatigue and illusions she were feeling. It took her a considerable amount of effort to do so but her horn would glow. The ice would that had already hardened itself around him would begin to harden and begin to grow. As she stepped forward Magloria quickly took note of the scroll. Magloria didn't quite have enough time to recognize the runes themselves but she stepped forward closer. A push of her telekinesis would keep his feline companions from touching her at the moment. Although her force of telekinesis would only end up shoving them back a ways, it hadn't done anything to hurt them. Magloria didn't believe in hurting animals that didn't pose a significant threat to her at the moment. Magloria's eyes would seem to flicker a bit as she forced herself to resist the magic he was doing on her. Clearly, he had managed to affect her but it appears her mind was strong enough to resist it. With her magic she grabbed the scroll in a motion to rip it in half. It was possible that he could have done something to stop her though, but she was determined to see this to victory in her favor one way or another. "I give you a chance to lay down your arms to me and surrender honorably. The alternative is not so honorable. You fought respectably and I commend you for that. So offer me respect in turn and surrender to me. I am apt to be more lenient on you should you do so." she spoke in a clear authoritative manner, and was not willing to take no for an answer it seems.

I just woke up. Am feeling good for a new day.

@Ragland Tiger Suri panted and looked on over to Bluebell and nodded. She looks to Bluebell, before glancing up at the clear blue sky. The forest was way off in the distance by this point. "I find that if all of this is a ruse I will not be pleased, so let's just hope this is worth it..." she narrowed her eyes.

@Blitz Boom As they walked about she notices that Soul was looked at favorably by the other ponies. For the looks he had gotten elsewhere it was likely pleasing for him to be accepted, even if it were only among his own kin. It was something that she was glad for and she smiled ever so slightly. To feel compassion for another in a manner that wasn't suppressed anymore - that made her smile fondly at that. Her smile was serene in multiple ways. But alas, she forged on. The mare they approached was interesting, and while she didn't say anything she was quite curious as to exactly what was spoken there. She didn't know what to think of what the mare said but it was of clear concern to Soul. Whatever the reason may be, it may be something that they would have to deal with. Hopefully not yet another obstacle to Magnolia's ultimate end desire. But some would say the journey is just as important as the destination. The doorway they had entered through was of paramount interest to say the least. The way it had been designed and crafted was no doubt impressive. She wonders how long it took to build such a door - and who's skull it was on the door. "I have to ask though, what was that mare talking about? What does Mourner's Puppet mean? I also wonder who's skull is on the door. Very interesting place. Also of note, you are well renowned here I can see. A shame that isn't the case everywhere." she remarks.

Down with the megacorporations! It pleases me to see another titan fall. The bigger they are, the harder they fall!

@Blitz Boom Magloria was more than pleased that she was able to distract Operata by snagging his legs with the shards. At least she knew that she was capable of doing that. Of course, he is a pony just like her. Every pony has faults and weaknesses that she could exploit. Magloria was no exception to this but the difference here was that she were on her home turf. Close to her magic supply, in the ideal environment for her, and that's not even considering the amount of combat experience she had. The claw beams had managed to slice away a bit of her tail as she had ducked. However that was of little concern to what had happened next. Right upon feeling the force of the voice coming towards her she quickly raised a good deal of of ice from the ground with her magic to block the majority of it. Although with the way it had been positioned the force of the voice was able to knock her back a good ways up the hill. It seems she was using his attacks to fuel her own tactics. However the ice had also shattered all in front of her and was blasted back as well, making it harder for them to see her through the snow filled air. A few of the shards had impacted her fur and left some cuts. But that wasn't something she were a stranger to. Besides, when it was cold out the blood would clot up faster due to the cold. Though they couldn't see it but she was grinning wildly at her position. Not only did she have the higher ground but she had the advantage due to them currently being within the snow filled air. Quickly she forced herself up and dashed off to the right to avoid them predicting her movements. Magloria had quickly surged her magic. This was the most amount that she had performed in her draining, draining from 4 of her captured unicorns to fuel her next attack. Her horn swirled with multicolored magic. It wasn't only blue this time, but it also combined varying degrees of other types of magic. The beam swirled into a triple helix of blue, green, and white. The 3 different parts had spun off into the air rapidly before splitting off and attacking the lot of them from 3 different angles. The blue one had struck squarely in front of them and exploded in a similar manner as before, kicking up even more snow in the air. The white and the green ones had attacked from other side. The white one was similar to the blue one although the crystal shards if they had managed to ensnare anyone would be slightly harder to deal with, while the green one was just a less powerful version of the blue one. The attacks themselves individually weren't all that impressive, but the amount of them and how she had planned it out and used her terrain for the advantage was quite something. She could do this all day on her own turf. The question was - How long could they withstand?

Peanut butter. I'm basic.
