Genius, mad scientist or simple unicorn who caught a lucky break? Starswirl's journal shall reveal all.
(Continued from previous page)
The king says that with the threat of war looming overhead, there are very few ponies he can trust, not even his own personal guard. But he knows that he can trust me. When I asked how that was, he replied with the fact that my family had served his for countless generations. There was a loyalty deeply ingrained in our familial relationship that could not be replicated or betrayed. And because of this, he wants me to become his new personal guardsmen, in addition to my occupation as court buffoon. Amazing. The king of the unicorns, entrusting his life to a simple jester. I never thought I'd see the day. I never thought I'd think of seeing the day. This truly is a great responsibility.
Addendum: Apparently being the king's personal guardsmen means I can never leave his side, even while he sleeps. Further good news for me, as while I watch him sleep, I can both guard his life, and gather data for my sleep spell!

Orich Alcum... Have you been playing Skyrim?
Otherwise, very clever on Starswirl's part, using his bodyguard status to observe the sleeping king.
wouldn't in this situation it be handy to have someone adept in magic guarding you? like i dunno.... a court wizard?
4143924 I'l explain it don't worry. Also, in the courts of the unicorn royalty, court wizard is just code for Royal fool, somepony who does little more than parlor tricks. Plus, the way I'm writing this, most unicorns aren't capable of any magic greater than levitation (aside from combat magic of course.)
4143878 Actually I've been playing final fantasy. Their version of Orichcalcum is much hardier stuff,
4143978 yes a kingdom of unicorns who's spellbook is severly limited, having a living encyclopedia of magic around seems like it would be smarter then hoping that the closest guards one spell helps the situation. hostage situation and the closest guard happens to be 'big bang' with an explosion for a cutiemark... yeah my point is made
