I stared off into the distance for what felt like eternity until the squeaky door hinges brought me back. When I blinked to re-adjust my focus to see whoever decided to enter the room I occupied I came to see the other unicorn/pegasus slowly entering. Looking at her I would say she was trying to be very quiet while entering the room. She made her way toward the comforter in the corner of the room.
Well I was hoping to not wake either of you, but it would seem like I fell short on that, but this works out. (Relaxes her head on the arm rest) If your feeling up to it (Name) I’d like to converse with you.
Their it is again...I have nothing but time so I’m fine with conversing though I’d advise you to stop speaking my name like we're acquainted. I have never meet you until now after all so if you would be so kind as to tell me your name we can move forward. Also you did fairly well in silencing your movements though the door hinges were one you overlooked along with your rather sloppy movements that would require more practice.
(Silently chuckles) I see. I’ll try doing better next time (name). Sorry, old habits. You may call me celestia and the one sleeping is my sister luna though I’d prefer tia and she lula. After all we are very familiar with each other even if you can’t remember. In time I do hope you will.
(Rubbing my chin) Well I can’t say for sure if what you're saying is true, but I’ll postpone my doubt for the time being Tia. Ah, Almost slipped my mind. You can call me marcus or marc for short. I’ll let you decide. Anyway please to meet you.
Now that introductions are out of the way would you be so kind as to tell me how you know me personally and how I’m before you when I know I should be buried eight feet under.
Well Marcus that is a rather long explanation expanding over a millennia ago. I can’t be certain if I could recall every detail though I’m sure you may ask my sister since she has been by your side more so during those times. I can say that you came here by rather unfortunate consequences when the one known as discord toyed with magic that should not have been missed with in the first place. When he did it caused a chaotic ripple which destroyed everything within its path.
I honestly can’t say how you truly got here, but I can say the part of what caused you to get here was that chaotic ripple. Our mother and father then brought you back to the castle and had you treated for your injures which left you bedridden for three in a half months until you reawakened from your injures. Once that you were questioned then when everything was good they left you to do as you please. You’ve stayed in the castle for the better part of your time.
Hm, not what I was hoping for though it is something at least. Still a millennia...I can’t believe I’ve been dead for over a thousand years....Might you shed some light on how I died?
(lightly coughs) You’ve dead by over exceeding your powers. If I recall you told us that once you reach your limit it’s either stop there and then or chose to go over in the result of letting the very power you possess corrupt your presence. “A mind is a fragile thing in which you can only process so much information before the mind starts to crack under the strain along with the body of a mortal if his/her body is not quite suited to contain or channel the overwhelming strain,” That’s what you’ve said when you headed off toward the war effect of discords reign.
(Looks out the window) I couldn’t quite lay my hoof on the information you’ve passed to me, but the day once the war effort ended was also the day it hit me. It was the day I lost a very close friend, but it was also the day luna lost something more than just a friend. You know every since that day of your passing luna became discontented from the world. Everyday she mourned for your loss; she did after all spent a majority of her time with you since our parents never gave her the time of day. They had been more focused on training me to become a ruler then trying to be parents.
That’s rather harsh to do to a mere child...It may lead them to believe they are less important. I guess I became somewhat of a important figure to luna if what you say is true since I did spent a lot of my free time in the castle possibly leading to our paths to cross one day then I would say she started follow me out of boredom and before we knew it our presence with each other filled a empty void. (sighs) though I can’t believe my power killed me after I over exceeded my limit allowing the corruption to consume me.
Well not necessarily how I would say it happened, but I wasn’t there so I can’t say. You did become a important figure to her though because unlike our parents you did what they ignored in which was being a parent to a filly. I dare say you had raised her more than our parents. Oh my, it would seem I spent a little more time than I thought. Well sorry to cut things short marc, but a princess duty is never done. Be sure to watch lula for me...she stills trying to adjust to modern times. Also don't let your past mistake define you(x2) did do what was necessary to end a war before things could go any further; even if you had to sacrifice yourself in the process.
I simply nodded my head in understanding and waved her off. When she was gone I slowly lifted luna’s head off my knee then placed a pillow under before getting out of bed making sure to take it slowly until I felt comfortable in standing on my own feet without the fear of falling and headed toward the bathroom to get some much needed cleanliness along with being presentable. I looked over my shoulder one last time at luna letting my mind process the new information I was given by Tia on our closeness ages ago before deciding to continue on.
Hopefully I can remember my life from a millennia ago and figure out the answer to the "Why?" as in why was I brought back from the dead and what is this foreign power I poses. I may have used it during the encounter, but that was out of anguish more so then knowing also I need to deal with having to handle luna. "sighs" back from the dead and already having task pile up...What's next?
