Shadechaser looked over the horizon that she once could feel, but now seems blurred. An image, not of an object but of a concept, was starting to come into her sight. Was it from which this voice rang, or is this something that one can only hope upon? " If the voices that I hear are from a calm subject, then I want to see this calm. Unless the voices are from madness, I will follow." She looked toward the suspect source, which of what she could see was deeper than the outer ring of the forest. Her steps where as cautious yet as quick as one fire walking. Never too fast, nor too slow. These voices are not from my followings, but from something that desires those of a special nature, if I am not mistaken. Shade picked up the shard she uncovered and stored it in her shadow pack, then she started for the source of the voice. Sekashi bumped into Shade by accident its neither she wasn't paying attention to whats in front of her and or the Virgacorn didn't see shade Sekashi looked at Shade as if she was expecting her to attack " oh umm sorry" she said in a caution tone.****** Moonlight simply kept walking there's nothing much to do now that master lost his interest with her she Moonlight tried to ignore the pain as much as she can and just keep walking.

Shadechaser looked at the Virgacorn, took a mental note, and seemed to stare into her eyes. "If you know not the dark, you shall fear not the dark. If you know not the light, then fear not the truth. This dark sees no threat within you. Find your reasons, and find your place. You should know this land more than that just entered." With those last words, she turned back to her path and started back at a full gallop. That being was something I have yet seen before. Could it have been a product of the chaos within this land? Should I even question 'his' logic?

Bane stops and listens to the rustling and panicked breathe. Wait a minute, no pony sent by discord could be like this, unless. Bane opened his door slightly and sees the tree-pony. No, this isn't any of Discord's Minions. He opens the door fully and walks towards her. He notices she is trying to break her leg off, or something. "Excuse me, is there something the matter?"

" Excuse me, is there something the matter?" after Shade galloped away Sekashi went on her merry way then she heard rustling leaves the Virgacorn followed where the sound was coming from until she saw Bane and the tree pony she looked at the two curiously. " what seems to be the matter here?" she asked curiously.

Willow stared with hollow eyes at the plain-pony from the dead-den, she was going to be splintered to pieces by this being and his strange tongue, chanting a mantra of sorts to bind Willow further? Like a cockatrice uses it's gaze to hold their prey! Willow called to the trees in desperation, a deep rumbling sound seeming alien to such a light and fragile body. She then snapped her head to the side, her branch-like horns sweeping quickly across the plain-pony's path. If he wished to destroy the guardian of the forest then Willow would make sure he paid for it! Each swing of her head created a flurry of sharp twigs that denied the pony further access whilst Willow worked on splintering off the stuck leg. --- The message was received, and the trees responded. Branches like clawed hands snatched out at the Cloaked-One and the Striped-Horn, these who dare put their guardian in danger! Roots began to snake their way through the ground towards the two, fully intent on binding them as the forest reacted to this insult against one of their own!

Chrysteel nods in understanding. For the first time in about 500 years she uses the language taught to her by cadence, (Spoken in an ancient tongue)"Then I will do my best to make sure Harmony comes back. We have waited 1000 years for this and now the time comes. I will set out immediately to find the chosen. It would be good to invite those you can sense, if I do not find them first, to the hidden city." (In normal tongue)"I will take my leave and see to it the chosen are found. Good luck mother. Please keep me informed on her if I am unable to. I may have to face her. I hope it doesn't mean I have to fight. I dislike fighting and you know it mother. Till next meeting mother." Chrysteel and Rendia bows before heading out to the main gate of Avalon. the only known true way to leave and enter the Hidden City.

For Shade, it was a path of gentle shadow. It reminded her of a time when there was such a thing as night, when the shadows were not something to be afraid of but embraced. There was a clear, fresh smell in the air, orderly, harmonic, free of the bewildering, chaotic smells that plagued the world outside.
There was an arching of vines and branches before her that could almost be a gateway, or a door. Though beyond it the trail seemed only to continue on without end, she now knew without doubt that it was indeed a doorway. What lay beyond? It was her choice, whether to enter, or turn back.
Then, as she contemplated this door, out stepped a changeling that shone like Love, yet was not of the form of any changeling she had ever known, angel-winged and without hole or blemish...

Chrysteel saw the shadow pony and gazed into its heart to see if the being belonged to Discord. When the being did not she said warmly, "Welcome to the Door of the hidden city. I am called Princess Chrysteel. Chosen of our mother Queen Cadence. Who may I ask are you, young shadow pony?" Chrysteel holds her place but does not stop the shadow child from passing, if the being doesn't wish to talk. "Make your self at home here. Discord's reign does not hold here."

Shadechaser seemed to be within a trace after the sight of the archway. If there was a gentle breeze, one could see her sway gently with the breeze. Her words were not coming until she seemed to lift her front left hoof. It pointed towards the mountain range, even if out of sight. It lowered then she spoke, "As the dark returns to day, the light comes from gray. The shadows lost within chaos, and none find near us. When nothing is logic, the format is lost. If the sorrow is morbid, it's at its highest. Nothing but symbols can describe the beauty that I once saw. Nothing but lies can hide such pleasure. When logic is lost, when reason is yet to be found..." Her words seem lost, her voice seems clear, and her mouth remains closed. Her eyes seem fixed on the archway. "If the lost find a sanctuary, hope recovers. As the world becomes more corrupt, the hope becomes less within the corruption."
Her eyes seem to slowly look toward the shadow of the being once known as a changeling. They stay there for a moment, then she says, "How long has this land been under 'his' rule?" Her hooves seem as still as four posts rooted to the ground. She seems to have something to hide, but no one can be certain.

"He has ruled for a thousand years. but still there are places his chaos has not yet reached. Our Avalon the hidden city is but one of them. Please pass this archway if you wish to see harmony at work again and chaos not hold sway. May I know your name? The chosen are soon to come. I must get looking for them. Their hearts will allow me to find them as I have found you at our door. mother cadence awaits within for the chosen. If you be one but not know it, seek her out inside and you will learn that answer." Chrysteel says and asks as she waits for the shadow pony's choice. she holds a welcoming hoof towards the archway. Rendia waits next to her lady and remains silent for now.

Through the leaves of the Everfree Forest, a lone figure wanders through the dense undergrowth, moving quietly and quickly in search of a decent meal. Hours of scavenging resulting in little to no return. All that the colt had to eat was a mushroom. It might even be poisonous, he thought. His strength failing him, he surrendered his hunt miserably. He ran a hoof down a scar located along his eye, as if recalling a long-forgotten memory...
No... No, no, no! Yes... Do it...
The unicorn snapped out of his vision, not daring to look any further into his mind. If my luck does not pick up, I am going to starve. He begged, Please... Help me... Anything, anypony... I am dying... Sleep-deprivation, malnourishment, and physical injury began to take their toll. Starfall began to stumble a little on his path. Please, anypony... Help me...

Rendia waits next to her lady and remains silent for now. Moonlight was wondering closer and closer to chrysteel. the pain became more worse as she gets nearer to her Moonlight really tried her best to ignore it she kept walking until she saw chrysteel she staggered a bit and grunted in pain. ***** Sekashi gasped she galloped towards Bane " we have to get out of here!" she shouted.

Chrysteel notices a being stagger and hears her grunt. With her heart sense she can tell the being is in allot of turmoil and pain. Partly from her aura which she quickly suppresses. Heart Sense -Passive ability- With her Valor's Love aura Chrysteel is able to see into the hearts of others as if they themselves were a open book waiting to be read. This ability is blocked when encountering true minions of Discord. Namely the Chaos Six and Discord Himself.
Aura Magic: Aura Suppression This ability Suppresses her aura. Effects: 1. Aura magic functions at 50% strength 2. Can't use major aura powers. 3. Aura special abilities only affect Chrysteel while suppressed.
Chrysteel's Pristine Harmonic Valor's Love aura energy suddenly vanishes. her aura which was once shown to all around her and encompassing them as well, that showed the grace and beauty of one well beyond her years, is now just a minor glow around only her. Chrysteel then rushes to the creature's side and asks, " Are you Ok? May I help you in any way? Are you from here or elsewhere?" Chrysteel's concern is seen by Rendia who reaches into her pack and pulls out a first aid kit. " Here, let us at least treat those wounds. You will die if you leave them untreated." Rendia points with a hoof to the knives stuck in Moonlight's body.

Rendia Begins treatment on her knife wounds. Chrysteel asks, "Where are you from? Did Discord do this to you?" Chrysteel says with worry on her mussel. "I am Chrysteel, Princess of Avalon. This is Rendia my personal attendant and one of my best friends. What is your name?" Chrysteel seams to care more for her well being and who she is then anything else right now.
