Valara was sitting along with her friends, holding her staff with both claws and resting her head on it. She could tell that the other were tired as well and can't wait to get home after this maelstrom of a conflict. But that was what stopped her thoughts, where were they? She looked behind her and looked through a window and saw that they were still in a forest. But as she does a magical scan, through her connections through nature, she felt a different type of magic surrounding them, as well as finding more magical signatures within the room they are in. She looked to where the strong magical signature was, and six colorful beings on the floor, resting. She decided to expanded her magical senses, even through the tiredness, she did this just to make sure that her mind was not playing tricks with her. After a few moments of scurrying, what she found disturbed her greatly, so she decided to tell this to her team. But decided to tell it later, since Lunar is trying to call for the others.
Azzy was having the best day of his life. He actually fought someone who can fight in a long time, it might be a race he does not know off, but at least it did put up a good fight. He was relaxing on one step of a stair, lying down on it with his eyes closed, when he heard a voice call him. He sat up and opened his eyes to see a black kobold looking at him.
"Sir Azzy, we need to talk to the others, I have something to tell and it might shock you as well." The black kobold said to his friend, as Azzy stood up and walked towards the rest of his team.
"I wonder what he's going to say?" Azzy thought as he sat crosslegs between Greilyn and Valara, with his spear resting on his shoulder.
"So, what are you going to tell us, Lunar?" Xandoo asked as he sits on a broken stone pillar, not bothering to look up as he meddles with his crossbow for anything to be concerned about.
"I did a magical scan a while ago when we were fighting Nightmare Moon" Lunar said as he sat beside Xandoo.
"Uh... Nightmare who now?" Greilyn asked the kobold sorcerer confused about the name given to them.
"Um, the one we were fighting a while ago, that was her name. Anyway, like I said I did a magical scan awhile ago and I noticed a few things." Lunar said
"We got teleported?" Greilyn said
"We defeated an evil creature?" Azzy said
"There's four legged creatures that look like horses?" Xandoo said as he pointed towards the now waking group of colorful creatures
"Well, yes, that, but also not that. You see, we might be-" But before he could continue, he was then cut off by Valara as she gives her insight to the problem.
"We might be in a different part of the world or in an unknown part of a forest. I also did a magical scan as well a few moments ago, and I noticed that there are different magical signatures in the area, not only that the magic of the forest outside is different from what I know off, there is a big difference in the magical atmosphere." Valara explained to the others her findings.
"Well, yes, you are correct, but I do not think that we are at a different part of the world or a different continent at that. We might be in an entirely new world from what I observed." Lunar said, and soon the faces of the other kobolds were filled with shock. They tried to question him but Lunar raised one claw to silence them so he would explain.
"Let me explain. What Miss Valara said was true, when I did a magical scan, not only did I notice a difference in the magical atmosphere, I also noticed that it is an entirely different magic from the once we know of. The magical atmosphere that surrounds our world is like a hot fire or a rushing wind of steam, meaning it is wild, it's harder to control and stabilize. While the magical atmosphere here seems to be more docile and calm, much like a stream of water or a gently flowing river, you could control it with no difficulty. The other thing I also noticed is the alignment of the stars and its patterns. I do not recognize the different constellations shown above the sky. And being a Lunar Sorcerer, that says something." Lunar explains to the rest, soon the others calmed down but it seems that something was on Xandoo's mind.
"What do you think sent us here?" Xandoo asked and after a short pause he asked another question. "Do you think we could go back?" He said as he looked up towards the ceiling, looking thorough the broken roof towards the starry sky.
"I think it has something to do with the pin Greilyn found, I am not sure." Lunar replied with his head hung low as he recalled the glowing pin that Greilyn took from the ground. "As for your second question, I do not think we could go back, there might be a small chance if I were to study the mechanics of the spell and look for someone who could cast it for us, but even then, our chances are close to none."
Everyone was holding mixed reactions, for Azzy it was a new opportunity to go on adventures and explore the new world, meet new people, learn new stuff, and fight more monsters. Valara was going to miss the friends she made in Ace Draco and her family that she left behind, but she knew that unexpected things would happen the moment she decided to leave the village and be an adventurer. Lunar was feeling down, but being a Lunar Sorcerer, he knew that their goddess would not abandon them, even in an entirely new world. For Corgda Xandoo on the other claw, this was just one of the unfortunate events that happen in life, one of the bad days that he experience's, the unlucky outcome of in a good bet, he knew that no matter the action made, there are always consequences, it just so happened that the request that they took from the guild master led them on another world. Very unfortunate. As for Greilyn, he was affected the strongest, for he would not be able to see his younger brothers and sisters any more, now that he's on a different world. His family would wonder where he has been and where were the letters and funds that the blue kobold was sending, only to receive a letter from the guild that said kobold disappeared without a trace, leaving the family in despair. Greilyn knew that crying and despairing would do nothing, he knew that if he kept the sadness in it would break him, and he knew that even in the toughest situations, his family would tell him to move forward and never forget them. He wishes that someday they would be able to return, but he could not help but cry silently for the loss of his family, even if he knows that they are still alive.
The sun started to rise from what Xandoo could see through the window. He sighed and stood up, took his crossbow that was lying on the floor and slung it on his shoulder.
"Come on, nothing going to happen if we just sit around. We better make use of what we have now while were still alive." He said as he picks up a bag of supplies from the floor.
Azzy sat up, took his spear and jumped upwards and dusted himself. "Xan's right, and since Lunar said that were on a new world, that means there's new stuff to explore, and even new people to meet!" Azzy said with a cheeky smile as he tries to lift the spirits of the others up.
Greilyn didn't respond and only kept quiet as he prays silently to the gods to protect his family. Lunar was praying as well, but in whispers, as he prays for their safety in the long road ahead. Valara on the other claw, thinks about what Azzy said. They are in a new world, that means she would be able to further expand her knowledge on alchemy and plant life.
Xandoo sighed again as he crosses his arms, while Azzy scratches the top of his head, as they look at the rest of their friends not move for a few moments. Xandoo looked behind him only to notice more of those colorful strange beings, but only two caught his eye. A tall white one with a horn and wings, and a multi color hair an tail, and a dark blue one that is also the same and seemed to have stars for their hair and tail. He also observed that the dark blue one looked similar to the one they fought a while ago, the two seemed to move towards where they are, and the smaller ones following behind the two. The purple one with a horn seemed ecstatic about something as well as the pink one, both with large smiles on their faces. The light blue one with the wings was somewhat glaring at them with suspicion, while the white one with the purple hair seemed to be looking at one of them, and he was sure it was Lunar. The orange one was looking at them with curiosity and caution, and he seemed to notice bits of pink and yellow behind the orange one, he wasn't sure.
Xandoo then decided to alert the rest of his team as these colorful beings approach them. "Hey, get up, we got company." He said to the others as he nudges Greilyn on the shoulder. Azzy saw this and readied his spear just in case conflict happens. The rest then saw what Xandoo was talking about and stood up as they prepare for the on coming group.
Twilight saw the small dragons get up and take their weapons. She was following Princess Celestia and her sister, Princess Luna, who was shying away from their group, along with her new friends. She recognized Lunar in the group, due to their short interaction when facing Nightmare Moon, he seemed to be meditating or something similar since he was still and his eyes were closed. She noticed that the small dragons seem to be tense when they noticed the princesses, Twilight and her friends approach.
"Princess Celestia..... I think we should keep things easy? It looks like that the dragons seem to be in edge of all things." Twilight said to her teacher.
"I will keep that in mind Twilight, thank you." Celestia said to her student as she made a quick nuzzle to her. Luna saw this and wondered what the purple unicorn's relation with her sister. But before she could wonder more, her attention was drawn again towards the small group of young dragons as they approach them.
Celestia stopped infront of the group and looked at them with a critical eye. She saw that they are indeed well armed, but she what surprised her the most was that she felt that the small dragons infront of her each have different magical signatures, unique in their own way. This interested her and piqued her curiosity about the dragons,but she would have to reserve it for later, for now, introductions were at hoof.
"It is a pleasure to meet you young ones, my name is Princess Celestia, ruler-.... Co-ruler of Equestria, this is my younger sister, Princess Luna, and this is my student Twilight Sparkle." Celestia said to the young dragons . "I thank you for the help you gave for my student, although I would wish it was made with better circumstances and not violence." She said as she looks down to her sister with her ears down. She saw that the dark blue dragon was about to speak, but was then stopped buy the heavily clothed black dragon.
"Hi, as you recall I am Twilight Sparkle, and these are my friends, Rarity, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Fluttershy." Twilight said as she pointed to the respective mares.
Lunar then walked forward and spoke. "Greetings, I am Lunar, a member of the-" Then he stopped and sighed, "-Lunar Sorcerers, It is a pleasure to meet your acquaintance." As much as he hated having his name similar to the name of his profession, he could not complain, for he has learned multiple things from them. Lunar then continued to talk. "We would gladly receive your thanks, but as of right now, there are quite a few problems at hand and some of them are severe, but we should talk about this in a more.... well suited area." Lunar said as he looked to the group infront of them.
Luna was shocked to know that a small dragon was named nearly as she was, as well as an organization all about her night. Celestia on the other hoof was still cautious about the new arrivals that helped in her sisters reformation. But their thoughts were then interrupted by a pink mare popping out from nowhere infront of the small dragons.
"Hey!!! You guys wanna' know something?!?! This calls for a PARTY!!! Not only did we save Princess Luna Celestia's sister from the evil meanie pants Nightmare Moon, we also have SIX new friends to have a party with!!!" Pinkie Pie cheerfully said and then smiled widely at the ponies. The others were giving her confused looks, except for those that knew her for a long time now.
"Very well then. It would be an honor to give a warm welcome for my sister." Celestia said as she smiles and uses her magic to to teleport the others to the entrance of Ponyville.
In the town of Ponyville, the party is on full swing to welcome the return of the Sun Princess's sister. Although reluctant at first, the ponies of Ponyville slowly opened up to the new princess, although some of the ponies were skeptical about the fellow dragons with weapons, that the Sun Princess brought with her.
All in all, everyone enjoyed the party, some ponies tried to talk to the new princess, and even fewer tried to talk to the dragons, as they were curious. But most kept their distance from the dragons, as they are afraid that something might happen to them. Soon the party finished, and Twilight was able to stay in Ponyville to study about friendship, but before Celestia and Luna left the town, they had to address the small dragons first, along with the newly entitled Element Bearers.
The party finished, and the kobold crew were now following the white winged and horned horse towards a tree, with a door and windows installed in it. This threw the kobolds off seeing as it may be a literal tree house, but as they entered the tree house, their thought were changed immediately. Greilyn looked with awe but also cringed at the amount of books the tree has, Azzy gagged at the AMOUNT of books the tree has, Lunar was immediately running towards the nearest shelf, starry eyed, at the prospect of seeing bountiful knowledge, Xandoo put a claw on his face and shakes his head at his teams antics, and lastly, Valara touched a surface of the tree's "wall", and was surprised to find that the tree was still alive, even though the body of the tree was carved hollow.
"Now, I think your introductions are in order, and after that, we can start questioning each other." Celestia said as she sat on a couch. Her sister sat beside her, while the other mares sat around. The kobolds looked at each other, Greilyn and Azzy shrugged and sat on the floor, Lunar took two stools for him and Valara to sit on, while Xandoo chose to stand up and lean on a wall.
"Well, I should start first, since you already know me. As I said, my name is Lunar, I am a part of a sub group called Lunar Sorcerers. The main group is called The Lunari, and we follow the teachings of our goddess Diana." Lunar said as he introduced himself.
Greilyn then quickly stood up and introduced himself to the others. "Hi, so my names Greilyn, The Adventurer, just 'The Adventurer', I don't have fancy titles or part of a group as a matter of fact, well, except the group that I made, and-" He said, only to be cut off as a light blue kobold slings his arm around the neck of Greilyn.
"And my names Azzy!!! The coolest, strongest, and all around best fighter you would ever meet!! I'm called the Lightning Striker, and I'm a Lightning and Combat Arcana user, and the most handsome ko-" Azzy said proudly, only to receive a blue fist to the back of the head.
"OI, OI!!! Didn't you see that I was introducing myself, Eehh!!!" Greilyn said to the light blue kobold who was holding the back of his head. Greilyn was about to say more only to be interrupted again by a headbutt to the snout.
"You bastard! That freaking hurt! How bout' I punch you at the back of your head the see how it feels huh!?!?" Azzy said as he gripped the collar of the blue kobold, who was holding his hurting muzzle.
Greilyn then held on to the collar of his friends light blue ocean patterned vest and yelled back. "How bout' I teach your water lizard butt some manners instead, through physical force!!!" He yelled as he pulled back a fist ready to punch his friends face, as well as Azzy doing the same thing. But the fight was over even before it began, as dark blue claws held each of the conflicting kobolds head, that was soon smashed together, making enough force to knock both the hard heads unconscious.
"Could the both of you stop fighting every moment you can!?!?" Xandoo said. He then sighed as he put his claws at the bridge of his muzzle as he shakes his head over the two unconscious kobolds. Xandoo then looked at the colorful horses and spoke, "My name is Xandoo, Corgda Xandoo. And I'm the teams Ranger, the green one that's sitting on the stool is Valara, and she's our teams healer and nature expert. She uses Nature Arcana, while I use Combat Arcana. Now that we've introduced ourselves, lets get on with the questions and answers." Xandoo finished saying, only to find the most of the horses faces in shock and only a few were amused.
*Sigh* This is going to be a long day huh? Xandoo thought.
