Hayseed Swamp has never been a pleasant place to visit, safe or fragrant, the swamps here may have taken many careless travelers by surprise, yet the area had something that really attracted some selected ponies to this place, and it's not about a treat, jewels or anything similar, this time this place attracted ponies seeking knowledge, overnight old ruins full of interesting hieroglyphs and symbols emerged from the depths of one of the silted pits, anyone who looked at the strange symbols once knew that they are not normal and are much older than what any pony might know.

It is well known that Equestria was never a permanent home for ponies, it became a home after the arrival of these creatures many years ago while escaping from Ice Age and culprits called Windigos, at the time of its discovery, Equestria was uninhabited, but the discovery of the lost ruins at Hayseed Swamp could disprove the theories once in a while. always and since Equestria was inhabited once, the question was by whom and when, unfortunately, dating such an object was not easy even for the navy blue Alicorn.

The first and leading expedition was Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Equestria and successor to the now retired Sun and Moon sisters, she, as an adult Alicorn, stood on a pile of rubble by the only perfectly preserved wall of an unknown object, examining every hieroglyph and etched images, trying not to overlook the smallest detail. For many it would certainly be strange that the princess and the ruler deal with such matters personally, but the long-known thirst for knowledge and knowledge meant that Twilight, having heard about the unknown past of her house, had to personally discover so far unknown secrets and a secret from the past that she was hiding from her. Equestria, her curiosity was so great that she did not notice any visible changes in all her companions after the past day and the strange shock of magic around the world. Rug Twilight Sparkle glowed with magical power, sliding the remnants of mud from the surface and revealing more layers of silty sand, revealing more drawings, but not only its power helped in cleaning and cataloging the new discovery.

Starling Glimmer a unicorn with lavender hair and a slightly curly mane in three shades of berry to purple, with the power of its horn helped to further clean the carvings, standing close to Silverstream pink Hippogriff with pink hair and blue mane together with tall and adult dragon Spike light purple scales and green she cataloged the spikes, outlining newly discovered images and cuneiform writing unknown to anyone, and standing with them, a mare with maroon hair, mane and tail in two shades of red in a black outfit, acting as a guard, observed the surroundings, wet terrain and dense forests, Tempest Shadow considered this task as a personal one. it is a duty to protect the princess because the local swamps were not a safe place.

Despite caution and work in a wet and muggy place, the flares lasted from the very morning, now the sun began to slowly fade below the horizon, it was already well in the afternoon and the work was actually about to end until the working Twilight stopped before the last hieroglyph.

- So what do you think Twilight, what could it be and who built it. Starling Glimmer asked, looking with interest at the entire object that looked like a building lying sideways.

- Well, I have too little data, first of all, but I can say that it is older than everything we know and it is amazing. Twilight said as she adjusted the golden crown before falling as her eyes focused on the strange half muddy picture.

- one thing is for sure, this structure is older than anything we know, you have to take a few samples, Spike you took one of the flakes.

- yes, I have it in my backpack. Said Spike, as a tall and adult dragon after a great battle, he could do things he had never done before, including carrying very heavy and big things.

- but these hieroglyphs do what they say, what stories they tell. Silverstream asked, placing her fore claws on a strange hieroglyph that showed the breath of power from three poisoned finger hands.

- why never any of the drawings shows any figure, only poison fingers, or some power from the heavens, perhaps lightning. Starling Glimmer and Silverstream asked, examining the strange drawing.

- it is very interesting, this and other drawings are as if the builders did not present themselves in the drawings on purpose. Twilight Sparkle said, examining the strange drawings with the hippogriff.

- one thing is for sure, I don't know a creature with three fingers, as if these creatures died out long ago. He found navy Alicorn returning to the last half-cleared drawing.

- how is it !, they became extinct?. Tempest Shadow asked, stepping down from her guard for a moment.

- they are gone, they are extinct, perhaps they were so magically gifted and careless or reckless that they contributed to their own downfall. Twilight explained.

- so why decipher the knowledge of a fallen race that could destroy itself, and if there is some dangerous spell here, what then?. Tempest Shadow said, getting everyone's attention.

- Tempest Shadow may be right, hey Twilight is really worth the trouble, and if we decipher something here that will destroy us. Silverstream asked with a little apprehension, backing away from the rocks and cuneiform writing.

- Hey, there is something in it, why I didn't think of it. Starling Glimmer said, also stepping back uncertainly.

- hey Twilight so what are we doing, maybe instead of wanting to know we should be careful and responsible. Spike asked.

Twilight Sparkle debated for a long time, it was a real war in her head, for and against, responsibility for her country fought against the desire to discover, justified by the fact that it is better to know and protect the world with new knowledge than to let it fall into the wrong hands.

- we will decide about it later, Tempest you are right, we must be careful but we must not let this knowledge fall into the wrong hooves, so. Twilight said with a little regret that the new discovery would have to be destroyed and no one could disagree with the idea.

They all returned to work together, and in the meantime the subject of the last day and the magical shock was raised.

- Twilight, tell me how you read yesterday, that shock of magic. Starling Glimmer asked.

- I do not know what it was, but I know one thing, this thing shocked the magic of the world, it was and is very strange, because I feel somehow different, as if I was younger. said Twilight, looking at herself and at her friends in particular, focusing her examining gaze on a tall dragon that seemed to be slightly shorter.

- Well, I don't know how to explain it myself, after this shock I'm a bit smaller, it's as if something rejuvenated me. Spike said showing his reduced size as evident on closer inspection.

- in fact, Spike you look like you've lost thirty centimeters. Silverstream said, looking closely at her dragon friend.

- you are also different. Spike said coming closer to the pink hippogriff.

- and how do you feel?. Starling Glimmer asked hurriedly.

- otherwise it's first. Spike said.

- and most importantly, younger, Starling, you also look different, as if you lost two years!. Silverstream said, looking with Spike at the pink unicorn and her curly curls that looked better than the day before before the strange shock of magic.

- younger, I don't know what it is but it's great !. Shouted Tempest Shadow, who had lost four years at the very first glance, her reaction to the past day and new strength was visible from a distance, even though Tempest Shadow was alert and ready to fight, keeping watch in the great swamps could not otherwise show the feeling of rejuvenation that she felt after yesterday.

- you think that this something was caused by yesterday, a shock of magic, maybe instead of looking for knowledge about ancient times here, we should all go back to the capital. She suggested Starling Glimmer was the only one to be wary of the strange fact that had come about the day before.

- but if it were wrong or anything else, I would probably have gotten a letter from the princesses by now, right Spike. Twilight Sparkle said as she gave her last words to her dragon friend.

- the truth is that so far no letter has arrived, no letter spit out so we have nothing to worry about. Said the light purple tall dragon.

- so we shouldn't worry about what the shock was and whether it really rejuvenated us, and if only us, we'll deal with it later, for now we have nothing to worry about. She added Twilight Sparkle, proceeding to further inspection.

- maybe not this, but look at this, we should be worried about it. Silverstream said, showing her newly discovered drawing with her claws.

The strange hieroglyph showed three unknown figures, the first and only one showing a figure, but the sight was strange and even frightening, they were three bizarre figures, the first was a bicorn, a creature with eight hooves, the second was a pony with seven heads, and the third was there was a strange jagged cloud, half crazy navy blue and stormy and in the other half white and calm, all these three figures were kneeling in front of the strange light of the reflection of the elements.

- what is this. She asked a shocked Starling Glimmer whose eyes widened uncontrollably.

- can it be real. Silverstream asked, scratching the blue mane on her head.

- What could it be. Tempest Shadow asked, coming off the guard again.

Meanwhile, Spike was silent and was making quick sketches adding the image to the notebook, and at the same time Twilight found the impossible.

- these three beings are probably a manifestation of former powers, a bicorn is a being of good and evil. Hydra-pony It is the essence of light and darkness and this cloud is a manifestation of chaos and harmony, could everything ever be in such unity, it is impossible. Twilight Sparkle said, unable to cope with such a great pressure of new knowledge if it was true.

- and there are six of them kneeling in front of them, isn't that what?. Spike asked but was quickly cut off.

- no Spike are not gems of harmony, they are something more powerful, they are aspects of the elements without which life in our world would not exist, water, ice, earth, air, fire and lightning. Twilight replied, fully engrossed and delighted with the new knowledge she discovered that day.

The new knowledge, new discoveries, were so absorbing that no one paid any attention to what was just coming, the first twenty centaurs emerged from the bushes, the same number of scarlet snake archers sat on their backs and in the sky more and more vultures began to block the sunlight.

- what is already going down the sun. Tempest Shadow asked, looking back at the strange phenomenon in the sky.

- attention!. Tempest Shadow managed to shout to everyone as twenty ice arrows fired from the left flank and hit everyone standing under the ruins of the old building.

At the same moment, the sky swarmed with winged attackers, scarlet vultures, holding fiery claws, squawked in an unknown language, as did the new centaur ranks, carrying snake archers on their backs.

- what's going on here, what are they. Panicked Silverstream said.

- take it easy maybe they aren't angry maybe they got it wrong. Spike said.

- Spike you are crazy, these monsters attacked us and they are charging at us what we do. Tempest Shadow asked, looking at navy blue Alicorn.

- whatever it is, we must fight!. Twilight shouted, accumulating the enormous power of her horn.

Come on, Twilight had many adventures and battles fought against various tyrants, she never wanted to see another such fight, take part in it, silently believing that the last completed war would give many years of peace to all of Equestria, but the sight of the advancing squadrons of scarlet vultures and hordes of centaurs destroyed all hope Twilight come on.

Twilight Sparkle fired a powerful beam of power from her horn, which rolled along a long line, carrying many centaurs in its path, all ended in a strong explosion that destroyed eight trees in its path, but the centaurs seemed endless as they kept coming to soothe the soothing charge in an empty emotions in their scarlet faces, and with each second there were only more of them.

Tempest Shadow standing next to it, seeing the turn of the matter, led everyone to attack, she fired a small but strong fire from the broken corner, resembling the fall of stars, subsequent explosions torn the soaked earth, destroying and scattering from twenty new attackers, and finally, when the Centaurs were close, Tempest Shadow jumped forward and rammed scarlet shields with their own head, hitting every third blow left and right, each blow smashed massive shields and centaurs falling to the ground crumbled into rubble of broken steel shards, when centaurs surrounded a unicorn with a broken horn, Tempest jumped high into the air, stopping almost in space between the centaurs and the quick kick from the hind hooves she broke the circle of centaurs in half, but that did not stop their snake companions who started firing, but no shot ever reached the horn-broken unicorn.

In the back, Starling Glimmer walked slowly ahead, firing her magic horn like a machine gun. The effect was the same, magic arrows pierced the steel skeletons of serpent archers turning them into rubble of steel, Starling turned her head to left and right, continuing her fire and knocking their archers off the back of centaurs.

- and what's the only thing you can do with cymbals!. Screamed Starling Glimmer, jumping up and down, mocking the icy arrows.

- I am resistant to arrows, and you have cymbals. Starling Glimmer, dreams began shooting. magic missiles starting with a big and powerful shot.

A huge bullet of pure magic exploded from twenty centaurs behind Tempest Shadow, giving her friend a moment's rest, then Starling looked at the incoming vultures squadrons and turned all her attention to them, more shots flew and with them and the ensuing in the form of cracking steel on dozens of flaming claws fell on the ground, the squadrons began to split into two and then into three smaller squadrons which slowly began to surround the five defending heroes. Starling tilted her head and turned around trying to catch as many of the attackers as possible. Soon her effort was reinforced with the help of Spike and Silverstream.

The strong dragon ejected one of his strongest breaths, absorbing one of the three legions of vultures, which, though not completely burned by their steel structure, was enough to melt their bodies and make them tumble to the ground, where they felt a thermal shock to the touch of soaked water and their bodies they crumbled to pieces, drowning in thick water and soft mud, Spike ejected another breath again, strengthened by the force of the wind. Spike took effect, shards of broken scarlet steel falling from the heavens.

Meanwhile, Twilight, standing in the center, fired successive beams of the strongest projectiles of power hitting the shadowy areas of the swamps and the approaching legions of scarlet legions, where only explosions, the roar and the sound of shrapnel colliding with the shields of successive charging centaurs, come all the defenders in their power, even Twilight Sparkle's blows seemed to contribute little to the battle.

Suddenly there was another quick and massive attack when one hundred centaurs, forming a wedge, jumped out of the swamps, the centaurs with all their strength and indescribable speed plunged into the Tempest Shadow sending a unicorn with a broken horn under Twilight's hooves, seeing it nearby, Spike shouted loudly, grabbed the broken tree limb and pulled him out of the ground, then he spun him and he smashed two ranks of charging centaurs on his way, what a small, tiny dragon once did was surprising for everyone, no less for the Tempest Shadow, whom Spike showed her strength and courage.

Spike whirled through the air again, log in hand, to land in the middle of the great mess, swinging the log like a massive hammer, his log racing left and right guided by dragon hands, colliding with massive forty centaur shields, for a moment this one the dragon amazed everyone, practically for a few seconds he fought alone, finally the next centaurs began to burst with the power of serial fire from Starling Glimmer, Silverstream air support and the strength of the hooves of Tempest Shadow standing next to the dragon and started beating with him like an experienced karate master.

For a moment, fighting against countless hosts, five heroes managed to push the attackers five meters from their position, the strength of Spike and Tempest Shadow kept the charging centaurs in check. And fire support Twilight Sparkle, Starling Glimmer, and Silverstream dropped broken pieces of scarlet vultures and snake archers from the sky. At first it seemed that they would win, but the enemy hosts had no end, and after a while another thousand centaurs emerged from the forest, which charged the enemy without fear, and from the heavens appeared countless crowds of vultures.

- is it endless. Silverstream asked, staring up at the sky.

- I don't know, I don't even know what we're fighting. A unicorn with lavender hair and a tricolor curly mane cried out.

- Starling, watch your right!. Screamed Tempest Shadow of the game kicked two centaurs into the air.

It was the moment when from the sky the vultures, hitting their claws, launched a volley of fire missiles, the fires hit the Starling Glimmer causing it to fall loudly. At the same time, a hundred centaurs jumped on Spike, pinning the dragon to the ground, their strength and weight completely paralyzing the light purple dragon. Suddenly the entire centaur mound glistened with the power of lightning, and a scream of dragon pain pierced the area. At the same time, a hundred snakes jumped out of the centaurs, and they immediately targeted Tempest Shadow, but the unicorn with a deep red coat did his best to avoid the fire of the ice arrows. the moment when as many as a hundred arrows fell from the sky, the first three arrows hit the unicorn with a broken horn in the head, then on the back, knocking the unicorn to the ground in a slightly frozen state.

Another wave of the enemy sprang from the sky, and a squadron of vultures like a comet struck Silverstream at the same time, knocking it down to the muddy ground and was about to sink their claws when everything was torn apart by the force of a great magical explosion, everything that stood within a hundred meters was destroyed, everything that had scarlet signature and it was bad to the core, scarlet shards soared into the sky and the storming hosts of centaurs, snakes and vultures were blown away from Tempest Shadow, Spike, Starling Glimmer and Spike, who slowly raised their heads looking at what had saved them.

It was Twilight Sparkle, and using her immeasurable power, she managed to free her friends from the hands and attacks of the scarlet hosts.

- I will never let you hurt my friends!. Twilight Sparkle screamed, and launched three more projectiles of even more powerful power from her horn.

Three missiles hit the darkness of distant trees, causing another three explosions, one stronger than the other. Another broken steel rolled over the battlefield and the broken trees showed a sight that chilled the blood in the veins of even Alicorn, Twilight looked with drooping wings at the enormity of the endless army emerging from scarlet veins and a great monolith, successive hosts crawled out of the veins and the great scarlet pedestal, Hundreds of centaurs and snakes rose on the earth and thousands of vultures rose in the sky.

- what is it, is it the end of the world. Twilight muttered as her friends approached her.

- yes my princess!. shouted the familiar voice of the evil centaur who led his vast army.

- Tirek!. She spat out Twilight Sparkle, staring angrily at the magic thief's red centaur.

- how could you break free, how could you!. Starling Glimmer asked, staring in disbelief at the evil centaur who should still be turned to stone.

- I am no longer a stone, oh no, our master freed us and gave us a chance for revenge!. Tirek shouted, and he released a mighty beam of power from his horns.

Twilight's reaction was immediate, releasing its own beam of power that clashed with the evil centaur's power, for a moment it was a struggle resembling a tug of war or two thugs jostling, with every second Twilight gaining ground, pushing the evil centaur's power beam away, even though Tirek began to lose no it kept his expression of contentment and certainty in him, suddenly the evil centaur raised his paws up to signal his squadrons from the heavens, scarlet vultures rubbing their claws on the claws shot out fiery rays, amplifying the evil centaur's beam, helping him push back the beam of purple Alicorn.

- hey that's not fair. Starling Glimmer shouted, supporting Twilight in the unequal fight.

A ray of lavender unicorn, a unicorn with a broken horn and a dragon's fire strengthened the power of Twilight so much that she again began to repel the evil centaur's attack, standing on the side of Silverstream also helped in the fight by generating quite a strong wind come her attempt was rather symbolic yet she did not want to stand aside and look. As the beam of the five friends neared, Tirek swung at them all again, giving his legions another signal, and successive squadrons of vultures hordes of centaurs from their maces and claws unleashed a powerful beam of fire and a bolt of lightning in support of the tyrant's beam.

Wrestling began to tear the earth at the point of battle and with every second Tirek, supported by the power of part of his army, began to push down the beam of Twilight Sparkle, come Twilight, supported by the power of her friends, was unable to do anything. She could only grimace her face to extract the last ounces of her power to try at least to stop the enemy beam and, in a final gesture of friendship, move her friends out of the battlefield, as if anyone knew of such an idea, no one would have agreed to such a move.

- you see princess, you will not save yourself and your friends, accept defeat. Tirek said, stepping forward, contented expression on his face.

- I will never give up, I will never stop fighting, you hear me Tirek!, I will not give up!. Twilight Sparkle screamed, taking the first step forward herself.

- so you will lose the painful way now!. Tirek screamed, and from behind him two hundred arrows fired and hit the evil centaur's beam, forming a huge missile rushing in the very radius.

The missile, rushing with dizzying speed, hit Twilight, causing a powerful explosion, sending all her friends around and leaving the princess herself in the great crater. Twilight Sparkle needed a few seconds to get up to her feet in spite of the pain and look fearfully at her fallen friends, Spike, Tempest Shadow, Starling Glimmer and Silverstream all lying half unconscious groaning from the feeling of the bullet.

- you see, nothing will stop us!. Tirek shouted, and he activated the power of his horns again, enhanced by the fire from the three elements of his legions.

Twilight could only close her eyes when another bullet struck her, knocking the golden crown off her head and sending her into the unknown until everything was shaken again by a powerful explosion and the sound of collapsing cracking earth.

- Twilight doesn't!. Screamed Spike, standing up like the rest, despite his bruises and pain.

- please, not this one!. Starling Glimmer screamed, unable to believe what she was seeing.

- is this our end?. Silverstream asked, terrified.

- no!, we'll kick that bastard his stupid and empty head first. Tempest Shadow said.

- you will pay us for it.

- I'm scared, wait, I think we have another thing here!. Tirek shouted as Discord emerged from nowhere.

The spirit of chaos looked around and was suddenly shocked to see the evil centaur and the huge army of scarlet legions emerging from the scarlet spire.

- for all the chaos that I once brought into the world, what is it. Discord asked.

- this thing gives birth to inexhaustible legions. Tempest Shadow, limping, said, first pointing to the scarlet monolith.

- I see, I think I saw something like that today. Discord said looking among four friends and a fifth who should be with them.

- what!, something like this has already appeared elsewhere!, where. Starling Glimmer asked.

- it doesn't matter where Twilight is.

- she was knocked down there somewhere. He pointed to Spike, shocking the spirit of chaos because that was not what he expected.

- yes, your princess has fallen, before I finish with her you will be the first to feel my anger, destroy them. Tirek shouted, sending his army into battle.

Meanwhile, at the bottom of the broken rock regiment lay a semiconscious Alicorn, right above the broken and razor-sharp rocks, Twilight only managed to open her eyes to look into the darkness of the cracks and the light of the sky that had been suddenly covered by a squad of vultures, the bruised princess refused to accept it. what happened was not her defeat, but visions of the return of an evil centaur to someone even worse, someone who summoned countless troops and his army seemed endless. For a moment, the memories of her entire life flickered through her mind, the image of her friends all she wanted and could do to protect them, and yet she lost today.

The groan of the bruised princess pierced the crack as the rock ledge finally cracked and a hand with the outline of a green sweatshirt emerged from the shadows.

- What!. Twilight might have mumbled as she felt a warm hand on her front hoof.

It was the moment when everything started to rush, the portal suddenly opened, a strange hand threw Twilight straight into the portal and the bruised princess found herself in the middle of the battlefield, right in front of the chaos spirit and everyone looking at her with surprise.

- what's going on. What is this portal?. Silverstream asked as she watched the portal vanish in less than a second.

Discord at the front knew what it was.

- this, this thing, in a moment it will start to head down. Discord shouted at which everyone looked at him confused, even Tirek, but everything was suddenly interrupted by a strong rumble, then a shock wave and something that shot out of the collapsed rocks soaring high into the sky in less than three seconds, a strange wave shook everyone, even an entire army the scarlet ones and the very evil centaur.

- what is this, it's a trick!. Tirek shouted in sheer anger as the wave shook his squadrons of scarlet vultures.

- Discord you know what it is. He asked the confused Spike along with Tempest Shadow, Silverstream and Starling Glimmer looking at a small point in the sky.

- whatever it is, and if it's good I'll show you all in a moment, I'll show you how it will destroy an entire army by itself. Discord said sincerely hoping that something would help them, which has already happened twice.

- Discord what are you saying. How this thing can destroy an entire army. Tempest Shadow asked.

At that moment, the entire sky where the vultures squadrons flew, the sky glowed a strange red and in less than a second all the vultures, more than three thousand vultures were pulled into three small spheres two meters in size, when the red power disappeared, the balls exploded, covering the earth with a wave of steel for a moment covering the image of the setting sun . But then it was no better for the scarlet legions, at least, from the heavens from a small distant point four arrows of ice missiles of indescribable power fired, missiles struck the ground, at scarlet centaurs and snakes, and their power tore everything in its path.

There was no enemy who could survive such great power, the strength of the ice arrows was so great that at a distance of two hundred meters the scarlet legions broke like fragile glass, and the force of the explosion was so great that it threw a terrified tyrant twenty meters high. Tirek crashed to the ground and everyone, including Twilight Sparkle, looked in total shock at the unknown in the sky, fearing his reaction, but why would he attack them if he saved her, this thought pierced her mind until another, even larger arrows fell from the skies. twenty meters long, the ice missiles struck the scarlet monolith, punching all the way to the shuttlecocks and deeper that the point of the arrowheads emerged from the other side.

It was another moment of silence broken by the terrible bang, and what was once a great monolith now was only a pile of blackened steel, and the destructive wave after the fall of the monolith destroyed every last of the scarlet legionaries. Seeing this, Tirek rose unsteadily on his even hooves, staring at the sky at the unknown, and then, using the power of his scarlet amulet, he disappeared into the unknown. Meanwhile, the standing Twilight took the first step forward to check the unknown who saved her life, but she was never able to do anything else because the unknown flew west with dizzying speed, dragging most of the nearby clouds with it.

- what is it, has it come up once?. Tempest Shadow asked.

- in fact, yes, in Manehattan and New Hive. Discord said.

- What!. everyone exclaimed except the still-silent Twilight.

- it's not the time to translate, we have to go as soon as possible, the princesses are waiting for you, Twilight you hear. Discord said, paying full attention to Twilight Sparkle, now silent and staring at the sky.

- Twilight you're fine. Asked Spike worrying about his friend.

- Yes, Spike is fine, I'm fine and I heard you all, but it saved me, it was something that had a human hand. Said Twilight, remembering the moment she saw and felt the hand of a man.

- What!. They all screamed simultaneously again.

- man here, but how!. It is impossible. Silverstream quickly stated, familiar with the stories behind the portal's magic mirror leading to the human world.

- I say what I saw myself and now Discord take us, Canterlot expects us, I suppose. Twilight said, directing her attention to the spirit of chaos.

- yes, yes, no!, again!. Discord shouted in frustration as his attempts, this time, were blocked not for five minutes but for good.

- unfortunately I am not able to take you, this something seems to be breaking my powers.

- so what do we do, we go on foot when the whole world is at stake. Starling Glimmer asked.

- maybe it will be better if we stay here overnight, the journey through the swamps at night is not safe. Tempest Shadow said.

- Yes, I know, the importance of the matter requires action but we are weak, tired and damaged throughout this fight so.

- alright, we'll stay here until tomorrow, Discord maybe tomorrow your teleportation abilities will come back. Better to wait until tomorrow with this. She told Twilight to which they all agreed with her word.

- hey, maybe this supposed man is guilty of last day's power tremor, what caused the now documented rejuvenation processes. Discord suggested, looking at each one carefully.

- so it's not a joke, it was the trembling of power that caused rejuvenation!, but how. Starling Glimmer asked quickly.

- so this trembling has reached the whole world?, and we are all younger. Silverstream asked looking at her pens and her friends.

- so it's true, that's why I feel so great, so young. Tempest Shadow said.

- exactly, Star Swirl is currently conducting intensive research, you will also be examined. Come on, looking at you, I do not need any tests, your rejuvenation can be seen without a medical examination. Discord said looking at everyone.

- but wait a minute, Discord, you said Star Swirl was doing research, right. Spike asked.

- thoroughly, examines, checks and has already drawn up the so-called logical intuitive system, i.e. a diagram of the years of rejuvenation, something told me that those at the age of Spike, CMC, were rejuvenated by a year and a half, older ones like you, Starling, Silverstream and Twilight were the rejuvenation period is two years, and so on and on, this will surely be told by Star Swirl who, like the princesses and the rest of the pillars, have been rejuvenated a full ten years, as well as I am. Discord said, folding his hands behind his back and displaying a grotesque beauty that only Fluttershy appreciated.

In the flood of new information, curiosities and discoveries all the time, only one listener was still silent, come new information should make Twilight deeply moved, curious, interested, she was still silent looking at the sky.

- hey Twilight you feel really good. He asked Discord, and everyone was surprised by the constant silence of the princess's usually curious new information.

- what!, I mean yes, I feel good, all of this is too much. Twilight Sparkle said constantly and most of her recollection of the moment she was saved by a human hand.

- for sure?, So what were we talking about here. Spike asked hurriedly, wanting to check on his best friend.

- if it was a human, and certainly because I saw his hand, I doubt that he personally caused the rejuvenating quiver of magic. Twilight said looking at her friends this time.

- you think so, you know everything is possible now, but the least that it was a human being, but if it was actually a human, then do about it. Starling Glimmer asked.

- we'll worry about that later since he, like Discord told us. Twilight said they exchange a glance with the chaos spirit at which he nodded.

- since he appeared in two other places and saved us all, we can hope that he will be our hero and friend.

- and if not, and if it will target us too. Tempest Shadow asked with a slightly trembling voice, what, what, but it never happened to her, and yet the image of the completely destroyed army of scarlet legions did its job.

- we must believe, I believe. Twilight Sparkle said smiling at everyone, remembering that one moment when a human hand had saved her from a terrible fate.

NEW ABYSS.

Meanwhile in New Abyss, the head of the six-eyed elemental lord stared nervously from the fracture of his three pillars which indicated only one thing, someone had stopped his plans, at least for now. And the words of Cozy Glow, Chrysalis and Tirek confirmed what was already obvious to him.

- So it happened, the one who shook the magic of the world appeared on the big board between the pawns and the pieces, why, why he took us on his target, why!. Akeron screamed and his voice caused the three pillars to burst, giving way to the new six, causing a sudden outburst of fear among the four evil tyrants.

Suddenly Akeron looked at the cautiously crouching Sombre, when the eyes of the monster, the elemental lords, fell on the black pony in silver armor with a cape always sure and angry an underground prison was able to destroy them all with the power of his army.

- you, Sombra, you will start a new attack, they already know, they will reunite soon as it was five months ago.

- you want to let them. Sombra asked.

- because thanks to this I will collect the essence of their power, I already did it twice when my cocoons and Manehattan and New Hive took power from the tethered, they do not know that my monoliths are able to assimilate the powers of magic, so let them come.

- and if he does, then something will also come to help them. Tirek asked quickly, and Akeron looked up at the sky uncertainly.

- then she will try to get along with him, he is a creature from another world, so he does not know which side to take, he is wandering, but soon, yes.

- out of curiosity, Mr. Akleron. Cozy Glow asked nervously, standing uncertainly in place.

- I'm listening.

- You say that the scarlet towers can absorb the powers of magic, so why didn't they absorb the powers of this something.

- because this thing is something completely unknown to me. Something that shook the magic of the world, I don't know what its power is, so I can't absorb its power until I meet it. Now go ahead. White Tail Woods, that's your goal, we'll be seen there and our enemies will come to give me power!. Akeron shouted, confidently sending his four chosen ones, come himself, he had a certain fear of what had come, what was unknown from beyond this world.

\

in the end, the mysterious man came out of the shadows, both literally and figuratively, and the mere suspicion that the mysterious stranger is a man will shake the world as much as scarlet legions, soon even the vicissitudes of destiny will be broken and demolished.
