The jackal diamond dog had a very puzzled expression, Discord even was confused by the very request. “Master Gale, I can but why?” “What are you up to?” “A random act of kindness, I know what mum told me about what you did but here you are without your chaos, I am curious about it.” Gale said hovering before Discord. “I don't care why your mean to others before, it what you do when your freed that matters.” Discord rolled his eyes. “Fine do whatever you like, it get my magic back I am happy to assist.” He turn to Blue raising his arms up. “Do whatever you need to do Lucario.” Blue raise a eye. “My name is Blue not Lucario.” “I am talking about w-” Discord groans in annoyance getting a deep glare from Blue with a snarl. “Fine... Blue do it already!” “Master?” Blue questioned to be sure this is the action he is to take. Gale nod to Blue. “Go ahead Blue.” Blue closing his eyes with the four dreads raising up, they vibrating. “I can not sense any form of magical aura around Discord, only his life force on a subconscious state form.” Blue open his eyes and the dreads lowered. Gale tap the end of his beak. “You were sealed as a statue by the elements, maybe they stopped your chaos magic from coming through.” Gale hummed. “Or maybe it could be the dream realm has different rules like Aunty Luna told me.” Discord snorts crossing his arms. “Doesn't help me, I am stuck here without my magic!” “Your a statue, does that mean you been awake as one all that time?” Gale asked. “None of your business child.” Discord walks away. Blue turn to follow the draconequs, he steps on a feather under his right paw foot, bending down and picking it up. “Hmm... It seem I might have found the cause.” “My feather? What does a feather have to do with Discord being here?” “The random chaotic act of a loss feather falling from your wing onto a certain statue may resulted with pure magic allowing the seal to slightly weaken, which allow Discord to be subconsciously here in the Dream Cavern.” Blue held up the feather explaining to Gale. Gale took it from him. “Hmm... That is a random chance.” Gale turn towards Discord who now stood at the shore looking out at the waterfall. “Do you think mum be mad that he asleep and here in Dream Cavern?” Blue lean against the tree trunk with his arms crossed keeping a eye on the draconequs. “I do not know Master Gale, your mother is Princess Celestia after all and her past maybe a long time ago with Discord, but her mind maybe still troubled by his chaotic nature.” “But that not his fault, there is always chaos and order, you can't have one without the other, sometimes one can go crazier than the other but it just part of world.” Gale said to Blue. “Imagination is the very thing of it too, dreams, ideas and random thoughts are better much it too, it how I created this place and you with dream magic.” Gale points out to Blue. The jackal diamond dog took that into thought as he shift his eyes upon Gale. “Mistress Celestia is the order and Discord is the chaos, ponies been happy with the order she given them, Master Gale. She may never fully believe any good come from him.” Blue eyes shift back to Discord. Gale rubbed the back of his neck. “I don't know Blue, it was over 1000 years ago, maybe just maybe we can change that.” Gale walk towards Discord. “It is what you wish Master Gale, I will go with whatever you suggest, I only can relay my views on the subject.” Blue replied watching Gale get closer to Discord. “Child, this is boring, no chance to cause chaos. I do not want your kindness.” Gale stood to the right of him. “Well you either got being here in this boring place free to move around or go back as a statue with the same sights of the gardens.” Gale said. “My feather if it is gave you some freedom, even it a dream, would you rather give that up?” Gale turn walking to his house by the waterfall. Discord turn his head watching Gale walk away. “Is he a child?” “That is true but there are signs of being mature, only moments at random times.” Blue responded. “But Master Gale is correct you have only two choices, take your time to pick, Master Gale isn't one for rushing.” Blue said from the tree he still leant against. Discord raise his talon and paw up to his field of vision. “One talon I go back to being motionless statue staring at the same space for hundreds of years, on the other paw I get to sleep, dream and move around in some randomly created landscape by a form of imagination that a form of chaos...” Discord rubbed them together with a sly smile. “Very difficult isn't it?” Blue teased. Discord smile dropped as he turn around to Blue glaring at the jackal diamond dog. “You really know how to kill the mood.” “Only you can kill that Discord, I only guard the Dream Cavern.” Blue push off the trunk jumping up onto a branch before bouncing off onto another disappearing from view. Discord looked up at the large crystal reflecting the sun through out the cavern as well the warmth of it. “Very creative.” Discord taking a good look around. “I have nothing on that griffon Gale, Celly really kept me in the dark this time.” He walked towards the house. “Time to twist and play the little guy.” Discord chuckled lightly. “Care to repeat that?” The draconequs quickly looking around seeing no sign of Blue, he felt a chill run through his body. “Sneaky...” “Did you forget...” “Guardian of Dream Cavern blah blah blah.” Discord rolled his eyes turning around on the spot to try at least see where Blue was. “Your very chaotic you know that?” “Order and chaos are one side of the scales, each need the other, I simply used it to my advantage.” Discord chuckled. “I like you, Gale made you well.” “Praising me to drop my guard, not going to happen Discord, I be watching so don't try anything funny.” Discord muttered under his breath. “Crafty mutt...” Gale open the door. “Made your choice?” “Not yet, I just arrived afterall.” Discord decided to play nice with Gale. “True, maybe if you behave here I can show ya my Imaginative Randomizer Gate tonight.” Gale smiled. “Imaginative Randomizer Gate?” “I have a hyper imagination and when I sleep I come here, so to have dreams like others I created something to give me random dreams with the dream magic, Aunty Luna helped me to make it.” Gale closed the door. “I thought maybe just wondering around here would make it too boring for you.” Discord stared. “What are you up to?” “Nothing, well time to get up! A new day awaits! More writing, speech and other lessons!” Gale saluted and vanished before Discord's eyes. The draconequs looked around. “That a neat trick.” “No trick, just Master Gale waking up.” Discord turn around to see Blue stood before him. “Come I will show you were you be sleeping.” Blue waved a paw for him to follow. “I am already asleep Mutt.” “That is true but since your body encased in stone, your subconscious be active all the time here by my best guess, you will need to rest the mind, as do I.” Blue turn and walks away from the house, Discord follows. “How does that even work!? I'm dreaming!” “Elementary Discord, the dream realm has it own form of chaos, it doesn't need to be explained on how it works, it just does.” Blue glance over his right at Discord trailing behind. “Your a being of chaos are you not? This should be a norm for you.” Discord snorted with a small laugh. “As I said once before I say again, you crafty mutt.” He glance back to the waterfall, without a word Discord decided to play the game and wait for the time that a tiny crack to grow and when that does he will escape to cause chaos once more. For now he will buy his time.
