    When somepony loses their nature and their element which makes them special, how far can one go to reobtain what was lost?

    Discord was once a feared creature, only spoken of in whispers but now he's in the public eye as a father. But through changes, he realizes what was lost and is desperate to be found in time. But will he have enough time?

    Sequel to When The Wind Changes. I strongly suggest that you read it before this one. Spoilers of both the stories can be in the comments.

    His pony body and draconequus body is two different things. He may be a certain age as a pony in that body, but as a draconequus his body continues on its same age as when it was when he was imprisoned.

    Well, this certainly will bring no conflict!

    ’‘Hello to you too, Era. But do you remember wha your father and I said about running around on your own in the castle?’’ She looked straight into the eyes of the filly, who just looked down at the floor in front of her and kicked the floor sheepishly.

    Your Japanese is VERY rusty, no Offence thought.

    Knows Chinese(MAsters Both Mandarin And Cantonese) so I can understand japanese grammar and sentence Structures.

    French is supposed to be my 3rd language.

    English's First.

    Spanish's Fourth.

    Undestands French = Easy Spanish

    English = Understand a Lil bit German

    In my case:

    English - second language, but I've got bored of it in groundschool because of the level of the teachers and the rest of the class, "reinvented" my love for it after staying for a few months in Finland

    German - third language, love of my life

    Japanese - I've learned it for a year, but after that I didn't had any living contact with it, so it went down to the level of basic understanding

    Finish - too alien to learn

    Swedish/Norwegian/Danish - such a wonderfull mixture of English, German and a bunch of old germanic words that no one else uses nowadays, you have to understand it

    Dutch - like the first part of the explanation above but less beautifull
