Changeling Trust

Day 87: Reunited

Styx’s POV:
I glide down towards the stands and start shrinking myself to still hold the two ponies, but to fit onto the balcony of the arena where the royals are. I land and the two Saddle Arabian ponies come charging up to me to get their son, Casho. Sombra glides off and then I change back into my normal form. The two Saddle Arabian ponies look at me in shock. “What?” I ask, expecting them to lash out in fear or anger. 

“You are a changeling?” asks the father. 

“Yes, the last dark one of my kind. The others have all turned to brighter colors and look much different than myself. Most ponies do not like me or my kind, let alone King Sombra, who is my husband.”

“Ah, I see. You are amazing and are always welcome to visit us in our kingdom if you wish. We always enjoy company. I have heard of the great King Sombra, however, I did not expect to ever meet him again. Although, I suppose that is the best part about life. Hearing everyone’s side of the story. Afterall, my kingdom chose not to side during that war, we kept to ourselves and only opened back up relations after the war was over. However, I am glad to see you King Sombra.”

“Me too, Haakim. I see that you and Amira had a wonderful son that you always wanted. Quite brave he is too. We will most certainly visit in the future,” says Sombra with joy sparkling in his eyes. 

“Yes, Casho is brave, but you and Styx are the bravest of everypony right now. Thank you for bringing him back, both of you. Will the griffins be bothering us in our lands anytime soon?” questions Amira. 

I answer for Sombra, “No, they should not bother you for a while. If you ever need help with them, please feel free to send me a message and I will come aid you.”

“Thank you,” both Haakim and Amira say in sync.

Sombra and I assume that our task is done, so we both teleport home and relax until tomorrow comes. When Starswirl will learn not to mess with a changeling, especially one set on revenge and one who plans to make his life miserable. Although, I will have to talk to Twilight tomorrow morning to learn where Starswirl is living, and I know without a doubt that he will not be home. Too busy catching up with Celestia to worry about what could happen to his home while he was gone in Canterlot.
