private Just an RP (1x1 with LonnaKitty)

She giggled and nodded, she understood boredom, too well. When she heard about the gossip though she perked up. She hadn't heard about too much gossip, too busy with other things. Her wings fluttered in anticipation, she normally wasnt a gossiper but hey, when presented she supposed. "Go on."

Dark's facial tattoo's glow faintly as he speaks "Well there's a few things I've heard. A couple I've actually seen happen. Anyway, I've heard that Princess Luna and that Royal Watcher fellow are together. Even though it's against certain rules. Another thing I've heard is that Princess Twilight has a secret chamber under the castle for... *ahem* studying creatures... I've also heard that Discord's been trying to get closer to Rarity for some reason. Which doesn't really strike me as the thing he'd normally do... And the last thing... A pony named Trixie has a HUGE crush on Twilight... Which is weird, because usually when they're together, Trixie acts like she hates Twilight to her core..." his markings stop glowing as he stops talking.

 

(OOC: Just in case it's not clear, the glow is to show that he's using magic so that only him and Argante can hear his words.)

"Huh, I only really know Luna, and I have met Twilight and her friends once before." she pondered a bit, trying to remember who they were and how they acted. "Is Luna really going out with one of the Watchers?" she didn't know what that was exactly, she assumed it was like a guard so to speak, so she knew there are certain rules against that sort of thing. Much like it was here.

Dark sighed "I guess being forgotten for so long, and cut off from other civilization deprives you of social knowledge... But to clarify, there is only one Royal Watcher in all of Equestria. His job is to, as his name suggests, watch over everything. Around 900 years ago, he attempted to recruit more Watchers, but no one had neither the time nor patience for it. So I think it's safe to say he's been the only one for... at least 1295 years. But all that time alone with his thoughts made him quite the loner. Don't think I've ever seen him 'hang out' with anypony. So him being with Luna is quite shocking, honestly. And I'm pretty sure reading somewhere that Luna and Shining Midnight, that's his name, are related... Oh wait, that was Twilight..." He looks at Argante's bracelets, scans them with his magic, and makes a mental note to get her to take them off sometime. "Now that I think about it, actually... Them being together isn't against any rules... The rule applies to royalty and non-royalty... Luna is obviously royalty... And Shining may or may not be of the long-lost bloodline of the Royal Scopes. Those damned unicorns..." He spits at the mention of them. "Should've killed them when I had the chance.." He says sighing deeply.

She nodded interested in his story. The part about killing ponies shocked her a bit, she kept a bit of a poker face though. "Killed who exactly? What is the story on that?" she tilted her head as Orange Blossom brought over the things they ordered. She thanked the mare and sipped on her cider, waiting for him to carry on.

Dark's markings glow faintly, as an image floats next to him. The image shows and dark-purple unicorn standing in the highest tower in Canterlot. "That would be a Royal Watcher. The... 15th Watcher. His name was Dusklight. He is the last known descendant of the Royal Scopes, and he caused too many issues with me. But for good reason. That was back when I was randomly changing sides. His service ended around 4200 years ago." The image then changed to a pure-white unicorn, also standing in the highest tower in Canterlot. "This would be the first Royal Scope. Her name was Sol, named after the goddess of the sun in some foreign religion. Her service ended about.. Damn... 10540 years ago. She was the nicest of the Watchers, I have to say. But she did have a dark side. Her I wouldn't have killed. That was back when I hadn't lived here long, and kept my distance from everypony. But she was friendly enough to come say hi to me. I kind of miss her... Could've lengthened her life span with my magic, but she wouldn't let me... Anyway, Sol, one other pony, and Dusklight were Royal Scopes. To be frank, Sol was the only friendly one. The other ones would try to either capture or kill me. Never got me, but they tried. Though they were some of the best Watchers in history." He says as the image disappears, and takes a drink. "And I mean killed Dusklight. He was... evil. He really was. Infected with some kind of magic-resistant disease that turned him evil. He fought it, but after a while it won and he lost control. Should've just killed him, but instead I allowed him to destroy quite a bit. Not on purpose, I was fighting other battles." He says with a sigh.

Argante frowned, looking down. She could sympathize, in a way. Things one could have done but didnt. "I guess...thats just one problem that one deals with, when you are immortal...." she glanced away looking at the smiling ponies around them. After what has happened her citizens got a taste of what being immortal was like. Now that everything was back to normal, well, the cycle will continue, and the ponies she knew would be gone, new ones replacing the old. She shook her head trying to clear away the thoughts that were passing through her mind.
