As you exit the mines, you come closer to the LUNER CASTLE where Sombra lives... in front of you is a makeshift shop; The words “FLIM & FLAM’S ADDISON ALLY” are plastered on a sign. A post is hung; On the left is a yellow unicorn that is clean-shaven, in the middle is one with a large mustache, and on the right... the pony on the right has been painted over with white paint.
“AH, FLIM COME TAKE A LOOK!”
“I see Flam; I see a NEW COSTUMER!”
“Come, my Dragon friend! Come and take a look around!”
“Don’t like taking a look around? You can PAY us to leave you be!”
“Miss looking around?! For a price, we can bother you again!”
...
You walk over to the ponies with caution. You note they’re wearing modern clothing. You ask them how long they’ve been here.
“I’d say about, ney... if we’ve been keeping track of time, 7... perhaps 8 years.”
“It’s sad I know, but that NO GOOD TWILIGHT SPARKLE AND HER NO GOOD FRIENDS- heh... Feels good knowing one of her friends is trapped here with us.”
You ask what they mean. They glare a smile in your direction.
“Why, Flutter Shy of course! Didn’t you know? Before she became a Bat Pony, she was an Element barrier.”
“Sadly, she was stripped of her Element before she was imprisoned here making her useless to King Sombra...”
“Didn’t she come here at the same time as that show pony Trixie and that green-haired freak?”
“I believe so yes... I think they consider themselves family.”
You ask about having an Element stripped from one's self.
“Uh-uh; Info like that will cost ya... say... 500 bits?”
You pay the bits without hesitation. The two ponies look shocked but smile nonetheless.
“Princess Celestia can bargain with the tree of harmony to have an Element barrier be... unchosen.”
“I believe you have to take a life to lose your Element if memory serves me correctly.”
“Perhaps that’s why the poor girl lay down and pretends to be garbage all the time?”
“Any other questions?”
You think for a moment. You point to the poster; specifically on the censored pony.
“Ah... her...”
“We don’t talk about her...”
“She ran into this prison of her own choice.”
“She was scared of being sent back to the mirror pool... Scared of ending up like her sisters...”
“Then one day, she found something...”
“A phone...”
“Say, how about we pay you not to bring her up again?”
You ask them why they’re here.
“Info like that will cost you-”
“We tried to scame Celestia.”
“BROTHER!”
“We accidently poisoned Celestia.”
“BROTHER!”
They’re yelling at each other now...
You place the EGG in with their products.
