The biting cold air... It only served to make matters worse for Asterian. With what strength he had left, his body began to twitch and convulse, desperately trying to stay warm. He seemed to lose contact with the world around him as his body went into shock, unable to handle his situation.
"Help..." he cried silently. "P-Please..."

North wind noticed the other pony twitching, and dispelled the fog as soon as he summoned it.

Shadechaser crossed the gateway... and found herself in the beautiful vale of the Hidden Land of Avalon.
The gentle wind sighed in the leaves of many trees, bringing the sweet scent of flowers and fresh, clear, clean water. A gentle glow, like moonlight in the depths of summer, illuminated the many quiet pathways running here and there. It was neither hot nor cold, but comfortably warm and cool at the same time. Many fruits, edible leaves and other good food grew along the pathways, ripe and free for any to pick at their leisure, for the land here was ruled by Harmony through the grace and power of Queen Cadance.

North Wind heard something coming. Out of habit, he used his power over cold to suck the heat out of the air around him, causing water in the air to condense into a thick fog cloaking him and the other pony. North wind noticed the other pony twitching, and dispelled the fog as soon as he summoned it. After North Wind's cold fog was dispelled they could see a black and pink colored pony full of color with angel-like wings and a med bag come over to them. " I know you where only trying to protect him and yourself but I can sense your hearts and that is a guide post for me to reach you. My name is Rendia and he looks like he could use some medical aid. It is one of my specialties as Lady Chrysteel's Attendant. Now, May I help this one or not. He looks as if he will die if he doesn't receive medical help soon." Rendia goes over to Asterian and pulls out a few medical items. The biting cold air... It only served to make matters worse for Asterian. With what strength he had left, his body began to twitch and convulse, desperately trying to stay warm. He seemed to lose contact with the world around him as his body went into shock, unable to handle his situation. " Help..." he cried silently. "P-Please..." She examines Asterian and says to North Wind, " You must return the heat at once or you will kill him. He is also malnourished and heavily dehydrated. We need to get him top Avalon at once. My med kit can treat his physical injuries and make him able to travel but not malnourishment and dehydration. He will need to be carried for a bit so I must ask you to carry him. Do I make myself clear, North Wind?" Rendia tends to his physical injuries and says to Asterian, " Do not fear I am only here to help you. We are going to take you to Avalon and get you some help for your lack of food and water." Rendia Motions for North wind to pick him up and carry him then follow her. She head back towards the gate of Avalon hopefully with them following.

" I can sense your broken heart my dear. Please may I know who this master of yours is?" Chrysteel asks. before moonlight can even answer Rendia says, " My lady This one was a toy of Discord's. Just look at what he has done to her heart. I know we both can sense it." Chrysteel nods and says, " Now I know why you were in pain from my valor's love aura. Discord must have corrupted you nearly all the way through. Well maybe I can help, but I must ask one thing of you moonlight. Will you be my friend and open your heart to me?" Chrysteel looks to Rendia before saying, " Rendia there is two hearts near each other. I know you can sense them as well and three more near the heart of the Everfree. Please check first on the two. One feels like they are in need of your skills and the other is trying to help him. I will stay here and help moonlight. Bring all of them to me or to mother inside Avalon. When you encounter the three make sure you are kind to the forest or it will try to hurt you." Chrysteel waits patiently for moonlight's response. Rendia replies, " By your will princess. I will see to them at once. I also think you should call your guard to you just incase discord detects you while helping his once bound toy." Rendia sets off looking for the two, one of whom is hurting. She uses her heart sense to locate and travel to them by air. Chrysteel does not call her guards because she feels it is not necessary and it would draw attention to her by discords minions. She is hoping Moonlight would allow chrysteel to be friends with her. Moonlight stared at the ground then looked at Chrysteel then back to the ground again thne finaly settling on looking at chrysteel she stared at Chrysteel for a long moment before slowly nodding " yes i'l be your...... friend" she said slowly.Chrysteel nods and says, " Okay. As a friend who knows hearts better then most anypony and any changeling, for that matter, I need to look into your heart to know how best to help you." Chrysteel uses the ability 'Analyze Heart' to see how best she can help Moonlight and how far Discord's corruption has claimed her. Aura Spell: Analyze Heart With this ability she stares into the heart of another and analyzes what is wrong with it and how best to help them. This ability is at 50% Strength due to her aura suppression ability. She can only find how much the heart is hurt and What needs to be done to make it so she can analyze further.

Asterian's quaking ceased. He lay motionless on the ground as Rendia tended to him. A few moments later, he felt himself being lifted upwards, presumably by one of the figures by him. He could see shadows of moving things just outside his comprehension. Asterian let out a soft, scratchy wheezing noise and a low moan as he felt himself moving. Despite being nearly blind, whatever was happening, he trusted it would aid him.

Running...running as fast as her hooves could carry Willow as the mare ducked and weaved between trees and roots towards the forest's heart, leaping shallow brown-water streams in a single effortless bound before galloping up a trunk into the canopy above. There she stood, trembling as the leaves enveloped her in comfort. Why had she ran? The pony was going to show her things, things unimaginable and unseen to her hollow eyes... ...and she ran... ...tears would come if they could...but made of the same flesh as trees did not permit her to taste the rainwater, as it were... ... ...voices? Willow straightened, bounding over the trees until she was over the top of them, unseen and unheard. The world grew cold after that statement, almost too cold for Willow to bear, frost creeping up the side of her kin from one of the two ponies. The other looked sick...dying even... The frost could kill her if she got too close, but... Maybe she had no need...
Leaping to another branch, Willow bounced upon the thickest part, making sure only the ripe of the pinkish sweet-sweet fruits fell to the ground. Down five or six went as Willow watched them land around the sick-pony and the frost-pony...

Laserbolt stood up, covered in scorch marks. The first thing he saw, was the ground. Dark, covered in strange plants he'd never seen before. "Dang it, Bertram. You goofed up good this time."
Schakolad continued trekking through the Everfree. Far from its original glory, but still a good hiding place. Somehow, Discord still hasn't noticed his escape. Fine by him. I suppose he wouldn't notice one missing servant.

As Shadechaser walked along the path, she slowly closed her eyes. Her mind was not affected by time, but her body still remained linked to the land of space and time. She looked toward the first time she felt this at ease. There was nothing more than a fog. Nothing more than just a silhouette beyond the mist. Something that felt good, but was nearly more threatening than Celestia the first time she saw her.
Her body was following the path seeming to be in a trance. Her mind occupied, her soul guided the 'husk' to the largest, darkest area within this sanctuary that had life of a 'still' nature. Few words exited her mouth. Some read, "Lost be found all around." Others spoke, "As fall turns the land, fear comes to command." Her voice was altered slightly to recall that of the shadows. Her body would rest under the veil of the shadows until her mind returns from its occupation.

Clockwork Rendia looks up to willow and says to the creature's heart, where words and thoughts were as one and one need not understand them to know their meaning, "I sense you there in the tree. I am a friend. Come follow me to the hidden land. You are needed to repair this world. Our mother, Cadence, invites you. Thank you as well for the fruit. We will use them to help him."
Mind Games Rendia looks to North Wind and says, "They are gifts from nature. Let us take them to the hidden land where some may flourish away from Discord's taint. The rest will be used to care for our injured friend here. If the wood bound one above would follow, only two remain before we are ready to start the healing of the chaos 6. Lady Chrysteel awaits at the gate to the hidden land. Now let us go I will show you the way. if you are wandering who and what I am, My name I have already given. I am an changeling cured by our mother the ancient known as Cadence. She is the concept of temperance. She is our mother and our queen. We are her angel-winged changelings. the name she gave to us after our purification. More will be made known to you when we reach the hidden land of Avalon, our home."
Rendia picks up two of the fruit and places then carefully and gently in her bag with the care and touch of one who knows how to respect nature and understands its gifts are not meant to be wasted. Rendia then continues on towards the gate of Avalon.

A...friend? What is a friend? She knew of kinship with her fellow trees, that much was certain, but... ...friend... Another word she inexplicably knew! Cadence. What was a Cadence? The voice said it was "our mother", but...for as long as Willow remembered she did not have a mother. Fathers aplenty but never a mother as most animals had... The voices below began to move away, and Willow thought that perhaps she should follow. So many hard-questions, what was friend, a Cadence? A Mother?
A branch creaked as Willow fell gracefully, leaping between the vines and twigs until she bounced from a trunk onto the grassland before the Winged-Pony, standing opposite her and blocking her path. Willow tilts her head in curiosity, hollow eyes staring nowhere in particular. "Koth'tl'ak...nuv'aa dr'oth?" ("The Heart...live there?")

North Wind saw the strange unicorn, and hid behind Rendia, muttering, "ohmygosh, we're dead."

Bane watches as Willow leaves, hearing the language he has not heard for a while. "We shall speak some other time then." He faces Sekashi and beckons her to come in. " We will leave her for now. First we must speak. I would hate for the words to travel to Discord's ears."Sekashi followed Bane inside " oh and my names Sekash and what do you want to speak about? is it about discord?" she asked curiously.
