"Thank you, your highness," Miles said, playing into the dream a little but also keeping in mind that Petey was in fact a Prince. "You simply experienced a minor telepathic overload and you temporarily can't connect to your hive. It's a simple fix really, and it doesn't hurt, you can ask your other mother here, I just did the same for her," he replied to the child, whose vocabulary definitely improved from when he was awake. Maybe he was cuteing up? It's typical of young changelings do do things like stumble around or mess up their grammar in order to get a little extra affection. "By the way, I'm not a 'medically trained professional,' I just helped get him here." Charlie didn't like the idea of allowing Petey to believe something that wasn't true, not that he had any concept of what lying was, he just didn't like the idea of being wrong and didn't think Petey would either.

"I woudl prefer it if these headaches would cease to be a bother. Proceed then, and alleviate us." Petey said as he grabbed a bottle of a red substance, and proceeded to pour it onto Last. With one paw, he proceeded to lift her up and shake her up and down rather vigorously. He did this for about 30 seconds, before setting her back down. Her coat and mane were now more pink in color. He went back to slurping out of the bendy straw that came out of her head.

"Okay, just stay still, this will all be over shortly," Miles said calmly. He began to do the same thing that he had done earlier, extending his telepathic field to Petey, from whom a weak strand of energy appeared connecting him to his 'other mother.' Slowly, strands of energy stretched outward from Petey as Miles repaired the damage. One small strand extended to Charlie, but it was a fairly weaker strand than the others.

The strands of energy continued to stretch slowly, getting stronger as they did until, "And we're done." After he said that, the energy strands disappeared, his work here was done. "You two should get some rest, I'll check back on you I the morning. I've got to go back to my dream and wake up so I can treat Priestess. I can find my own way back to my dream, so Charlie, you can stay here with them. Although, Queen Allure, if you would like to stay asleep, I would recommend stepping out into the hall for a few moments after I go back. It will be harder to wake you while you're there and we will need to move you to a bed." Charlie chimed in, "If you have any questions, feel free to ask me."

Upon seeing the trees and acquiring the seeds, Syo was reminded of something.

 

"Oh, yeah... Seamore, what do you want me to do with the spider?" Syo asked as she landed and started to help with the seed harvest. "I mean I don't mind storing it in my personal space but I am wondering if you want the corpse for something?"

The disk of *earth* they rode on came to a halt and a gate opened in the thin air. Out of it, they could see the look o the main road in Ponyville, along with a half dozen or so jumpy ponies who had not expected this thing to just suddenly show like that out of nowhere. Or perhaps they thought it was an attack. Considering Ponyville's history, it wasn't an unreasonable guess if it were really.

 

"Follow fast. I will close it after."

 

She wandered slowly and calmly out of her home realm, a guide as ever, though stopped when she was halfway out and spoke a few, unsure words through the whispering voice connected to Senlin's head.

Ah, such a peaceful task to start the day off with.

 

Slowly getting to the seeds and clearing them from the wood were not the usual way he found seeds in plants, but nevertheless he had approached it carefully and going as exact as he could from what he had heard and felt Seamore do. His own speed was slower than both Syo and Seamore because of that lack of a complete visual, but he did his part in the task at hoof, and he had to admit that it was a rather soothing way to start this thing off with.

 

But alas, few things could remain well. As Syo had mentioned the spider he had at first not thought much about it, thinking that perhaps it was part of the venom or something that she refereed to. Or, when the mention of its corpse came around, that it was a good deal away, as it would surely not be an easy task for any creature to just lug that thing around.

 

He had not been there when the remains were put into another dimension for safekeeping, and as such he unfortunately couldn't shield the so far silent Brittle from seeing not only another example of Syo's magic, but also the giant spider. It might be dead, but frankly it did nothing to change the size, and it overall actually made the sizeable creature look more terrifying at first glance.

 

All Briar managed to hear was a shriek and the scuttling sound of  backing away from the sight at great speed before turning around and becoming running, though for what reason he didn't know. He wouldn't be able to notice either what the others might have seen if they focused some on her, which was the fire engulfing her in first green, then black in rapid succession over and over like at the click of a button whilst she tried to escape what she had seen.

 

The changes the flames did were random at all the time, ranging from a change in size and colour to species, mixtures that wasn't meant to work, and once a spatula seemed to have replaced one of her legs, though she would have taken off too fast to really get much of a view of anything.

 

"What in- Brittle! Oh dear..."

 

Briar turned to Seamore that was taking the last seed out of the wood he was working on with a confused and worried look going over his face.

 

"I'll meet you outside, I just have to find her and... I don't know. Find out what happened I guess."

 

With that heturned around and followed to sound of Brittle he could faintly hear going down a random hall to further into the castle.

Senlin quickly jumped to the other side and while reassuring were Omen's words, he still had to move fast. He looked around and the town that he expected to be bustling with the routines of everyday life came to a halt. Ponyville fell silent just like the other towns he visited before.

"Of course," Senlin sighed, a hint of defeat and affirmation in his voice. He turned to Omen and continued: "it's bad enough that I look like a monster but to come out of that place and into view of the townsponies, now everyone thinks they might be under attack."

At this point, the oddities that were Omen and Senlin were alone and somehow, Senlin began thinking about some neighbourhood watchpony would come and take them to a jailhouse for questioning. It was much better than having everyone avoid him like the last few times he stopped in a town.

Still, there was no reason to give up just yet. The two of them were here to find someone; it might as well be Discord first. Senlin approached a nearby flower shop and knocked on the door. 

"Um... Hello? Look, I know you think I'm a monster but you don't need to be afraid. I'm just asking if Discord lives around here. You don't need to come out, just tell me where he lives and I'll be on my way."

Back in my original hive, I was found to have a higher aptitude for magic than the average changeling, so I was trained in medical magics. I liked the field so much I expanded my education to non magical treatments to cover my bases so I could become the professional physician I am today. I intend on using the stick's magic to heal the wound shut. I've been studying Everwood magic for some time and I believe it to be the best option in this case. Actually, I would say she's quite fortunate that it's Everwood as anything else might cause an infection or could even rupture something causing her to bleed out."

"That's a dangerous question to ask around here."

 

The somewhat gruff voice didn't come from the flower shop, but behind Senlin, where a large, older bat pony stood and looked at him with a slightly tired look in his eyes, mixed in with the careful glimmer that tended to be there. One could say that it alone pointed to him as some sort of guard or watcher, but the belt of medals around his waist and the Night Guard helmet did a better job of getting that point through really. He didn't have the armor that usually fitted with it, but it was early for a bat pony, so might be he hadn't bothered just yet.

 

(This is how he looks.)

 

"Mind telling me why you're looking for Discord?"

 

"For me."

 

Stargazer cringed slightly as he heard the whispering voice projected into his head. He didn't enjoy anypony being in there, and considering he didn't know that this was something that everypony around could hear like it was regular speak, he couldn't help but instinctively think of this as a bad omen as he turned around to the other weird character he had seen exit from that portal thing before.

 

The mare there was rather odd looking, but he had seen much and started to get jaded a long time ago so it hadn't really registered with him as much as the unknown quantity that this... Longma, was. He wasn't entirely sure if that was the name, as he had only met one of their kind before and it was a somewhat hazy encounter, but they'd see. Senlin didn't look to be violent and was knocking on doors instead of barging them in, so he didn't think this was an attack outright, but more innocent things had shown to be dangerous before, so he'd take this as it came right now. Currently, that meant with some caution whilst trying to remain mostly neutral until he knew otherwise.

 

His gaze didn't last long on Omen before he returned it to Senlin, thinking that this one was more fit to speak with right now and frankly seemed less unnerving than the odd mare did.

The gem was taken from it, but that wasn't why she focused on that one. No, she wanted it to compare to the other signs on the books to see if it would work better than knowing one sign. It had sounded like before as if this was close, so it would work better perhaps?

 

Her tongue free, she moved over and wrapped around the book before raising it up, near her face with the majority of her prehensile tongue free in front.

Some still looked a bit on edge over the odd pair that had shown, but the presence of a guard that wasn't actively trying to lock them up seemed to have helped put things somewhat at ease, though for the time being, Omen and Senlin were still given odd looks by the few who didn't scurry along to whatever they had to do.

 

Back over at Senlin, Omen walked calmly over to him and looked between him and the old pony wandering away.

 

"If he can help, we follow? And what does *Reformed* mean?"

 

It was Senlin and his hunt for his sister that the Night Guard had wanted to help with, so it seemed like something that the Longma should have to decide and not her. She'd follow him more than the guard no matter the choice though. For her, it didn't matter.

Senlin nodded at Omen as they went on their way with the night guard. "Reformed means... oh." For a moment, the idea of explaining how reformed works for the embodiment of chaos was a perplexing thought.

"Well, reformed means someone or something changing for the better. From what I heard and understood about Discord's reformation, he would use his powers for good this time instead of evil, or at least that's how it's supposed to go."

The two followed the guard but kept their distance, about one pony's length away. Senlin still had some suspicions despite the guard's collected demeanor. Elsewhere, the townsponies stayed away, ran to a back alley, or hid in their homes or stores. Their faces were barely visible but the look on their eyes still showed fear. They had their reasons to stay away and Senlin would respect that; there was no reason to break off from the current path.

As the eyes of the longma were trained at the night guard and his house, they were then distracted by facade of an odd, tree-shaped castle. The exterior gleamed of deep purple amethyst with crystal branches holding the structure up against the morning sun.

I guess that is where this 'Princess Twilight Sparkle' lives. I bet she can help.

Talking to himself was Senlin's way of thinking should he feel the need to conceal thoughts unnecessary. Unfortunately, this almost always led to accidents.
