    Chapter 56 Promo!

    In an isolated, abnormally large, hollowed-out tree might not be the typical abode for megalomaniacal n'ere-do-wells. Though, there was a reason both of them had opted for current accommodations over the typical kingdoms and castles, in one form or another. The area was absolutely inundated with dark magic. From the eerie glow that some of the plants gave off, to traces of black aerenth crystals

riddles and puzzles tend to do that to people

2900814 hey i never got our response for the "useless" thing, remenber?

This isn't a riddle so much as it is a bunch of abstract colors and images mixed with what looks like what happens when you let a cat sleep on your keyboard. The only thing I can distill from it is that Lightning Dust might make an appearance (what with the yellow and teal colors) and Rarity might play a big role in the next arc. And space. Space and bubbles. :twilightsheepish:

2900852

You matched up the wrong colors, I'll make a little tweak to make it more obvious :ajsmug:
As for the text, theeere is something there alright. You just haven't gotten the right direction to notice it :trollestia:

Sorry if its annoying. These are some old riddles I used to give a forum I was the admin on when new content was coming up, or to solve a mystery in an RP story arc that was going on.

2900867 OMG! :pinkiegasp:

That mustard yellow, that shade of green... Snails is going to be one of the next chapters big heroes isn't he!

I must prepare for this brave new attempt at fantasticness! :coolphoto:

2900944

Oh god! It hurts! I'm laughing so hard it hurt! AAAAAAAAHAHAHAA
Aaaaaaaaaaaaahahaaaa- would you like to know I've considered killing him several times now? :rainbowlaugh:

But you two are on the right track on thinking about color schemes

The text is in Leet (1337) speak, where you swap out letters for numbers or symbols
it says

!flesruoy morf nur tnac

... _____ (no clue what this word is) morf ron

2900867
You enjoy messing with people way too much.

2900867
Oh no worries, I'm not annoyed, I just suck at these kind of puzzles. :rainbowlaugh:

Honestly the tweak confuses me even more because now the colors aren't touching, and hence don't look like they signify a pony. Now I have no idea what the colors might mean. I'm still convinced space bubbles are somehow going to play into it though. Unless the space means the purple is Xenilla, because Xenilla is from space, and the teal means Junior because he's from the... ocean? Seriously, my brain isn't set up for figuring this stuff out.

And the gibberish still looks like gibberish no matter how long I stare at it. :derpyderp1:

Nightmare Moon and or Rarity get's together with Godzilla Jr and stuff explodes, as one of the Kaiju powers up to full form hence the bright blast of white in your face.

2900992

Author confirmed for troll

It seems we're drawing something relating to water (notice how the bubbles are trickling upwards and there seems to be beams of light on the top? Kinda reminds me of underwater) and outerspace. Other than that I got no clue other than the weird Leet speak. There are fiveish colors on screen, maybe they go together weirdly? What if the black goes with the gray or yellow? Then maybe the green goes with white and the purple? idk ick DAMN IT TARBTANO

2900980 "!flesruoy morf nur tnac"

cant run from yourself.

Is someone going to have identity issues again, Tarbtano?

2901120 Godzilla & team vs. Xenilla and something else, idk. Underwater because Godzilla came from below the ocean, and space because Xenilla was "born" in space. Just my idiocy though.

2901191

Ah come on you're not an idiot =)
Might be onto something, but then what's with all the flashy colors? Vex and Poetic thought it might imply someone's color schemes, but none of them match those two.

2900959 Please do, and his stupid friend too. No wait that would mess up the cannon. DAMN IT!

2901197 I got nothing there. Just writing what I thought up when I could see it, though perhaps the gap of black on both sides means the widening of a metaphorical gap between two characters who are one the side (in other words green-mothra and orange-rodan or whatever the other guy's name is, kinda forgot him :P), but as stated earlier, they dont really match color schemes. And the white in the middle is something forcing a seperation between G Jr and Xen, maybe Celestia? Whatever. Too much thinking, too little sleep.

Well, the leet speak means, !flesruoy morf nur tnac --> Can't run from yourself. So, I'm thinking Monster X and or Xenilla will be having existence issues. Maybe Lea will play a part as well looking at the green. Xenilla was born in space, from the blood that feel from Mothra Lea's mother after fighting mentally insane Senior with Battra in the ocean. Probably some sort of conflict with Rarity involved if we look at the dream she had in conjecture.

Can't run from yourself.
Nor from (I have no idea what this word is. I would say Ingen, but I wont for 3 reasons.
1. Ingen starts I, not E.
2. It has nothing to do with godzilla or my little pony.
3. Of course you can run from Ingen! They can't even keep dinosaurs in their pins, let alone giant 500,000 ton kaiju!)...

2901336

Nor from

Wait a minute, is there even an 'M' in that second line of leetspeak? I don't see one. I see a 'W'.

2901375

Some versions its interchangeable, the kind I was taught was. I'll make it more clear and yes it is an M

Black... white... purple... outer space...

When I look at the right half, I can't help but think of Nightmarity.

(But then what would the left half be? Gaaah.)

2901420

Maybe the purple and green somehow go together with or without the other colors or contrast?

A single bean in the middle, a reference to Senior's demise?

2901423
I keep thinking that maybe I'll figure something out if I look at it while keeping my eyes unfocused. But so far that's not working. >_>

Can't run from yourself.
Nor from enjin...
Should I know what that means? Is it a referance? If so, I feel stupid for not knowing it. If not, I feel stupid for thinking it is...

I'm intrigued by this art piece. Whatever is being teased, said event is probably going to have a big effect on events in the story.

2901645 I don't intend to sound mean, but I had a good chuckle at your comment. "I suspect that this mysterious art piece will have an effect on events that occur to the characters in the story." haahahahahaha. Again, I know it might sound rude, but I swear that's not my intention.

2901692

No offense taken. I just didn't phrase my comment the way I meant to.

2901517

That word looks familiar. Anyone recognize it?

2902260 Best I was able to find was that it was the name of a guild or something.

2902703

Hm... well that can't be it. Did give me an idea though.
I did a search using keywords 'Enjin' and 'MLP' as well as 'Enjin' and 'Godzilla'.
Got nothing with the former and the latter's first few results only got me more weird guild stuff. However I did a bit more looking and found this.

http://www.tohokingdom.com/web_pages/lost_projects/the_return_of_godzilla_ver1.htm

In his first attempted cinematic appearance, Bagan was composed of three different kaiju that fused together. No concept art or descriptions other than some small stuff but the trio was your basic 'Land, Air, and Sea' group. The air and sea ones were called Doragon Reijuu and Mizu Reijuu. The land one however was apparently ape based and called Enjin Reijuu.
We did have a mention in one of the early chapters Bagan can call up three beings to fight for him. Maybe Bridge's main villain is an amalgam of all the Bagan incarnations, 80s included? He's pulled obscure references before.


So the troll leet says

"Can't run from yourself!
Nor from Enjin..."


Fucking colors still confuse me to no end though.

2902781 You know Tarb is probably laughing his ass off as we squirm to try an figure this shit out.

>> VampyGirl43
Thre kaiju you say? Three colorful Rays of doom? I got it! It's the CMC...

2902844

I am a troll sent from the future meant to rustle jimmies

I typed in "enjin" and got a minecraft server specifically for clans not sure if that helps.

Since the words are backwords, and from the symetry of the image, I'm thinking Mirror verse. Space reflects sea as Xenilla is a reflection of Godzilla. The rest... no clue. Any ideas? which characters are Green and purple as reflections of eachother (unless that's the Mane-iac, possibly echoed by a sane Mirror!Mane-iac?) Who would be shades of yellow and shades of grey?

2903560
Clearly, KG and X.
There's been a dichotomy of ghidorah and almost-ghidorah going on since ever.

2903560
And I'm not sure but maybe green = Lea and purple = Irys?

I just realized that purple is the color used for Destroyah's dialogue, maybe she has a part to play?

2905538
So, sea (Goji) reflects space (Xen), Green (Lea) reflects Purple (Destroyah), Black reflects black (no clue) and Gold reflects Grey. The last two , I suspect would be the Gehdoras (King vs Kaiser) since Monster x is black and white while Kaiser Gehdora was a mix of shades of grey in the movie.

However, since the Mirror!verse is likely to be involved, one side should be the Mirror!versions of the characters. Which begs the question... which side of the mirror (the white line) is Equestria and which side is the Mirror!verse?

2906520 Perhaps it is just mean to showcase how certain Kaiju reflect each other, though I can't figure out why Keizar Ghidorah's colors are on Mothra's and Godzilla's side since I always felt that X was not evil, just antagonistic. perhaps it is also meant to show us that X is usually fighting for the wrong side. Another reason that supports the X, Keizar theory is that the code translates to you can't run from yourself since we have seen X tormented by images of him turning into Keizar G.

Or maybe Tarbtano is an asshole who delights far too much in our suffering.

2906636

It's worse then that. It's the gold on the same side as the green and sea, the color of the ever-unrepentedly evil Grand King Ghidora, not the questionable Kaiser Ghidora/Monster X.

Unless of course the it's the Mirror!verse King Ghidora, aka the one from the movie Giant Monsters All Out Attack. The one that was (for the first and only time) a heroic Guardian Monster that teamed up with Mothra to stop Godzilla.

... You know what, that is probably what that psychopath's Mirror!verse counterpart would be like. I think we can now guess which side of the line is the Mirror!verse.
