Bane closes his wooden door, it creaks, then a silence barrier (if seen by any high level magical user) has been activated. "I am Bane Emural, it is nice to meet a friendly pony around here that isn't influenced by Chaos. What I wish to discuss is the matter outside. Can you tell me any such activities Discord or any of the Minion 6 has done in the past 1,000 years? Being stuck in this place because of the secret I hold makes me blind on what is happening, and I believe its time I stop waiting and do something. What has happened outside?"

Sekashi looked slightly confused " i came from Zebraci so i do not know much about what happened in the pass thousand years but i can tell you if you go strooling in ponyville knife storms would be very common but i am trying to look for this called Avalon where princess Cadence lives in"

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?") Rendia stops and smiles at the wood bound unicorn. Rendia nods, fanning one of her wings out and first pointing towards where the old castle of the Everfree once was and then to Asterian. " It is there in Avalon. I know you have questions. Our Lady, the concept of temperance, Cadence will answer all of them. I speak to your heart right now because it looks to be the only way we can speak to each other. My friend, Princess Chrysteel, awaits our arrival. Come, follow you will like the hidden land. It is a place where storms of blades and exploding things will not harm the forests and we the winged ones care deeply for the land and its well being. This one needs help I can not give with what I have. It will take one moon for him to recover once there. Follow and I am sure our lady will know of you and why you were invited to our home. May we continue on our way? It is important the one called Asterian be cared for with rest, food, water and healing treatment." Rendia looks to North Wind and says, " It is safe. She is one of the forest's children. She is only curious about something I told her heart. I spoke to her heart so she could understand me better but it seems she knows not some of the words I used and has asked about them." Rendia waits for the forest child to let them continue, with her following or not, on their way to the hidden land of Avalon.

Bane looks at Sekashi confused. "Avalon? I have heard of the place before, but its location is unknown. Head towards the Everfree and look for Avalon. It's your best bet at finding it there. Anything hidden can be found in the Everfree. Though be careful where you step, you may not know what lies within the Everfree and respect it if you can."

" My parents have told me about everfree forest before and after discord and i have learned to respect and be caution in it and that pony tree thing i remember my parents telling me about those i dismissed them as crazy adult rumors to make Virgacorn foals well that crazy rumor is true" she said somewhat cheerfully.

Willow's head tilted back upright, and was about to let them pass until something made her ears perk upright...that sound...it was... No'trh'vhk...r'hostu'rva! (The sound of...hide!) Calling to the trees, the canopy abruptly shifted to shield them as something moved overhead... Shurd'ah...shurd'ah...tra'h Kraul'uh... (Hush...hush...the Cruel One...)

Shadechaser resting under the shade of something feels a different power similar to her's move from its resting spot. Her head twitched a little but not really noticeable.
Necroscale looks outside of his cave in the mountain toward the forest. "The forest looks as out of place as it looked before, but..." turning to see the plains near Ponyville, "Ponyville seems to have been hit by a chaos bomb." He looks to the sky, then looks back to the land. "The celestial bodies seem to be out of the celestial sisters' hooves. Should I look for an answer in Canterlot, or should I try to find my shadow friend...?" He starts to walk out of his cave only thinking of what to do as he went down the mountain path that was too familiar to him. The only thing he brings is a satchel with only two books.

Bane heads towards the door, but before he opens it, he looks at Sekashi. "You can go and look for Avalon, or you can join me in search of this Everfree pony. There is questions I wish to ask of her, and she may for me."

"The Everfree pony is the pony of the trees. We shall go now in search for both Avalon and the pony of Everfree." Bane opens the door and breaks the silence barrier. He walks into the Everfree forest, mindful on where he steps.

He walks into the Everfree forest, mindful on where he steps. Sekashi followed Bane she wasn't all to mindful of her steps " whats that secret is it some kind of ancient weapon? a spell book? a underground city of ponies? Celestia and Luna? the not corrupted elements of harmony" she asked curiously.

Necroscale heard a whisper of magic in the air, an ancient thought-voice, perhaps familiar, perhaps not, but a voice he recognized as that of an Alicorn, an Awakened Concept...
...Temperance. A "Cousin" of his Lady and Goddess-Queen, Tiamat of the Five Heads, and Her consort, God-King Bahamut of the Flame.
Son of Tiamat, I greet thee. Wilt thou come to the Hidden Land, and learn of that which came to pass, here in this World of Chaos?
*****
Chrysteel saw... CHAos, deLECTable CHAos, OH yes, such PAIN and SUFFERING from a SOUL that is just TORN with-
Something, a feeling of warmth and comfort, the feeling of a mother hugging a foal, or of a colt kissing a mare, welled up from within the changeling in answer to the spell, and the grey that had been building up on the Chaos-Twisted creature that was once a pony reluctantly withdrew back onto Moonlight, seeming to become translucent, such that the soul within shone as through a glass, darkly.
Torn. Broken. Shattered to bits, ground to dust, burned to ash and remade in mockery of the very idea of life. Every emotion, every memory a shadow of reality, a figment of chaos, of emotionless obedience and utmost hate for the Love Herself, a creature built for no reason other than for the twisted pleasure of a mad god.
This was... sadly... not unexpected. And not altogether rare either, as the case may be.
*****
((Bane, Sekashi, Willow, Rendia, North Wind and Asterian have their own conversation for now.))

Necroscale heeds this call, and states, "Something never seems to fit right when I feel something out of place. I wonder why that is. I never could recall where I came from but I know that the magic I learned has shrouded my past. If I were a son of this... Queen Tiamat... I think that would stand out, though the darkness seems to be able to shroud anything it desires." He continued to ponder on random topics that seemed to get his attention as he walked in a seeming random direction. He doesn't know the path to this hidden land, but that would change... slightly.
Shadechaser continues to rest under something that feels good on the inside. She remains uncertain of the land around her, but she is certain that she is near no threat to her soul.

"If you speak of Avalon, it is a city hidden within Everfree. A haven from Discord's reign of chaos. I never pay much attention to it though, too loud and crowded." While walking, Bane closes his eyes and tries to sense the location of Willow using sounds. A pony like that running through the forest should make some sort of sound, and if not her language is of use as well.

Calling to the trees, the canopy abruptly shifted to shield them as something moved overhead... Shurd'ah...shurd'ah...tra'h Kraul'uh... (Hush...hush...the Cruel One...)
Rendia nods and remains quiet holding a hoof to her traveling partner's mussels. " The cruel one can't hear heart speak. She dislikes it so. We will be safe as long as we remain in the forest. They seek Avalon again." {Hive Mind To Chrysteel} "My Lady, We have incoming your way. I think you and the other should either hide in Avalon or move from you current location." Chrysteel replys, "I cannot yet risk this one in Avalon. She has been torn so. It will take much but I need to get her to the dragon one. Maybe I can mend her partly with Mother's Gift. But for that to work I have to use my Aura and it will indeed hurt her."
===Near the gate to Avalon=== [...] Chrysteel saw... CHAos, deLECTable CHAos, OH yes, such PAIN and SUFFERING from a SOUL that is just TORN with-Something, a feeling of warmth and comfort, the feeling of a mother hugging a foal, or of a colt kissing a mare, welled up from within the changeling in answer to the spell, and the grey that had been building up on the Chaos-Twisted creature that was once a pony reluctantly withdrew back onto Moonlight, seeming to become translucent, such that the soul within shone as through a glass, darkly.

This was... sadly... not unexpected. And not altogether rare either, as the case may be. [...] Chrysteel saddens at what this one's heart shows her. " I know it may hurt, but do you trust me? We have to move either from here or into Avalon. But to go to Mother in Avalon I must mend your heart from what has been done to it. even if I partially mended your heart, you should be able to with stand mother's aura. Her or The dragon Queen can heal you more then me." Chrysteel waits for Moonlights reply. Chrysteel also hides herself and moonlight under one of the trees. She watches the sky just in case one of the minions show up. {Chamilion Changeling} This ability is able to hide up to two beings from sight. This ability is not a true deception. By covering the targets in the colors of the natural world around them, it uses the natural environment to hide the targets from sight.
