Ace trotted into the small building. Shining Armor and a few of the Royal Guard cantered over to him. 

"State your purpose." Shining said imperatively.

"Are you recruiting?" Ace asked.

"Yes, but first I have a few questions for you." He stated,

"Suppose somepony's getting detained, but you don't know them, what do you do?" He asked.

"Well, I'd take them from the Mary Sues and get them to a safe place." Ace answered.

"Suppose you've found a Mary Sue armory, what do you do?" He posed the hypothetical.

"I take as many weapons as I can carry." Ace answered.

"And finally, you've been captured and you bear information. Do you confess?" He asked the final question.

"No, it might endanger my friends." Ace answered.

"Welcome to the Remnant." Shining responded, "There's an armory on the other side of the building."

Once there he had found a katana that he levitated into it's sheath and strapped it on his back.

"Why a katana?" Ace asked himself, mostly. 

"I decided it'd be good." A voice said above him.
