"I said to Sweetie Belle that tree sap doesn't really do anything other than get you all sticky, But she just can't stop getting it all over her coat whenever she goes out crusading." The white mare had said. Conversing in front of me were two equine animals. Brightly colored, with large eyes, and I can understand them. This felt incredibly unnatural to me.
"Ah'll tell ya Rarity, Applebloom gets into all sorts of mess. I swear, them girls get more dirtier than me in one hour than the time it takes me to buck half my orchard." They still haven't seen me yet as they walked towards me, I try to move out the way, to hide, but my legs would not budge.
Immediately my mind began thinking of all the possibilities, whether they were hostile or not, if they weren't hostile I will simply present myself in proper manner, after all, all those years of training it couldn't hurt to learn proper etiquette. As was the case when the village told I had to learn how to read and write.
And if they're hostile? My mind began a sub-thinking like process on how to fight and possibly kill the two. Noticing the white one had a horn, could be used as a mean to impale. The orange one with the odd hat had no horn but mentioned bucking trees in an orchard which probably meant that the orange one was tough.
I had no weapon but being the size I am and with my strength and training compared to their height and numbers I believe it'd be a wrestling match. I also have hands, the advantage is mine.
The whole five seconds of thought suddenly came to a halt when I noticed them staring at me with wide-eyed expressions.
I stare back, my helm blocking their view of my face. Milliseconds pass.
"Hello." I managed to stammer out.
Rarity and Applejack took in the sight of the large figure before them. Rarity couldn't help but admire the intricate design of the armor it had on, not only did it make the large figure imposing but also elegant. Applejack on the other hand was admiring the sheer size of it thinking this thing is the same height as Celestial if not taller.
"Hello?" Sir is said agai.
Rarirty upon hearing his somewhat distorted voice quickly lifted a hoof to adjust her mane and stepped forward to address herself. "Oh I'm terribly sorry um..." Rarity realized it never mentioned it's name.
"Oh! it's Siris, excuse my manners, I'm a bit, out of it. And you are?" Siris never really had the chance to speak proper seeing as he was too busy being slaying daerils and when someone did talk to him it was usually a deathless talking down to him and always ended up in him killing it.
Rarity squeed in delight upon hearing this Siris had some proper etiquette. "Pleasure to meet your acquaintance , my name is Rarity and this is my best friend Applejack." The white pony, or Rarity as she said, gestured toward her orange friend Applejack.
"Pleasure tah meet ya Siris." She reached out one of hooves, possibly for me to shake it, I reached out my hand to her hooves and give it a quick one-shake.
"Pleasure to meet you as well Applejack."
Applejack let out a whistle. "You sure do have a strong grip there Siris, maybe sometime you can come over to mah farm and we can put that strength to good use!" Good use thought Siris, killing the deathless was putting strength to good use.
Siris was beginning to like these ponies, very friendly, guess it would be better to actually make some real friends instead of the occasional enemy and whatever Siris considered to think Isa is to himself.
"Please excuse my rudeness but if you don't mind me asking Mr.Siris, what exactly are you? I've never seen a species like you before." Rarity asked shyly.
"I'm..." I would say human but then I'd be lying. I'm a forsaken Deathless. I don't consider myself one of them, no, I'm as human as the next person. I will not be a monster.
"I'm a human, male by the way just in case you were wondering." They tilted their heads in confusment, obviously not knowing what a human is. No humans, just great.
"Ah okay then, I've never heard of a human before but I believe I know somepony who just might know." So far everything was looking bright! No daerils, though I had my thoughts on whether these creatures were some kind of Daerils made by some odd Deathless. Maybe where ever these two are taking me I can find some answers as to where I am.
