“Now,” Twilight began, levitating her cup back down on to the plate in front of her. “We should probably get back to…”
“Princess Luna!” Fighter suddenly exclaimed, with his arms in the air, suddenly appearing next to the Princess of the Night.
Twilight had to fight the urge to facehoof, but thanks to her calming tea, it’s a fight that she won this time.
“What is it, Fighter?” Princess Luna asked the brave no-longer-a knight standing before her.
“For sooth and anon, fair Princess. This humble subject merely asks for a moment of your time and to request a boon for services rendered,” Fighter began, speaking once again in his ye olde English.
“Is that so? Speaketh then, noble Fighter, and I shall hear and ponder this request of yours,” Princess Luna responded, in the same speech patterns.
“I admit that the true purpose of this excursion to your kingdom was in fact an epic journey, which has admittedly been fraught with danger and peril, has all been in search of the legendary Armor of Invincibility, which has been the subject of mine pursuit since I was but a squire, and now I have finally found it to be in your possession.”
“I see. So you wish for me to bequeath unto you my mythical suit of Armor of Invincibility, is that so?” Princess Luna pondered upon the fighter before her. “Sure, go ahead and take it,” she suddenly responded in a much more casual tone, levitating the armor into his grasp. “This armor, as invincible as it may be, has only negative memories associated with it for me, so I would be happy to part with it and to see it go beyond my reach, so that I may never use it again to harm innocent ponies.”
“Score!” Fighter exclaimed, finally claiming his long sought after prize.
Across the table, Black Mage observed their conversation. “Oh great, Fighter’s actually invincible now; as if I didn’t already have a hard enough time trying to kill him.” He then cupped his hands together and looked down. “Then again, I like a challenge, and if I can’t kill him instantly, then that just means that I can experiment with more painful and drawn out methods of ending his life, which always puts a smile on my face.”
Twilight then clonked BM on the head with her hoof. “We’re moving on.” She deadpanned.
