The elders came back at the table but they had guests with them. six creatures made of pure stars, I heard about the ursa minor and major but I never through I would see a similar creatures myself.
Author was the first to speak. ``This is the guardians of Equestria, they each represent a natural element present in Equis.``
The first one to introduce himself was a giant dragon his skin made of green stars. ``My name is Deodar I’m the Azure dragon of wood, I represent East and Spring.``
The second one was a tall phoenix made of stars that look to be made of fire. ``My name is Nuriel, Vermilion bird of fire, I represent South and Summer.`` She said in a powerful feminine voice.
Another dragon present itself this one was yellow and look more feminine in nature. ``I am Xantara yellow dragon of earth, I represent the change of seasons.``
The fourth one was a tiger made of white stars. ``I’m Silver the white tiger of metal, I represent West and Autumn.``
The fifth one was a giant sea pony made of blue stars. I never through I would see a real one, technically it’s a god with the form of a sea pony but I don’t care. ``My name is Ula, I’m the sea pony of water, I represent North and Winter.``
The last one was was a big bear made of purple stars. ``I am Isis the Ursa Major of mana, I represent the life and soul of Equis. And the six of us protect the world of Equis.`` That a Ursa Major? I heard they were suppose to be as big as Ponyville this one seem to be the regular size of a bear. Kira was the next to talk.
``Since Equis is their world to guard they were suppose to protect it from Discord but when Discord opened a breach betwen Equis and Earth the magic of the world began to leak making them too focus on reproducing mana to begin a fight against Discord`` Gaia was next to talk.
``The ponies are not made to survive withtout magic, it’s would kill all of them to be in a magicless world for a few months and since mister here through it would be a great idea to make everyone immortal they will die repeatedly over and over again.`` Me and my family were all horrified at the prospect Meek Sky even began to whimper hiding herself behind mom.
``Don’t worry the world shouldn’t be that empty of magic for at least five years, so you have to close this breach in the next four years and six months and the ecosystem of Equestria shouldn’t suffer to the point of no return.`` The white tiger reasure us.
``But how do we fix this putting duck tape on it?`` I ask dumbly, they almost all snickered at my response except the yellow dragon who had a stoic expression that would make the royal guards jealous.
``No, no we will fix it ourself of course, but we need to know where it is first.`` Said the ursa major. ``You see when we are outside of the veil our size is greatly different and we could destroy a lot of civilization just by searching for the breach so you and your friends must search it and signal us after thaqt it should be a piece of cake to close it.``
Whoa because Discord we have tons of things for us to do, beat his tower, find the elements of harmony, defeat him and his allies, keep the ponies safe from the players and finally find the breach and save the world, we’re lucky we have plenty of time.
The door open to let enter a new pony- I mean person, at first I through she was human but I quickly realise she was not, her skin was a little different than Dave and she had pointed ears she had a long blond mane, or is it hair? I don’t remember. I think she was a high elf from Tamriel if I remember corectly what Cherilee told us about them.
``Ah! Phoebe my daughter this is the ponies you will help in your next quest, you need to help them to defend Equestria agaisn’t Discord and his minions, if the ponies want you’re help do it, ok?`` Gaia said with a lot of authority, poor girl I wouldn’t imagine how it would be to have a mother with a stick in the butt, I’m happy with my mother.
I smile as I look at mom she smile too but was a little confuse by my display. The elf took position quietly alongside us I notice her back was half full of books the other half was personal object we usually bring on vacations.
This is the girl who suposely go to bed with everypony? She seem more like a nerd than anything else at first glance. ``Hello fillies and mare my name is Phoebe and I’m very happy to see all of you.`` She said her last word by petting slowly mom mane.
If she try anything with mom she will see the joy of being a ice cube. Mom is not interest in mare I should know I ask her when I reveal myself to be a fillyfooler. I remember it like it was yesterday.

Two years ago
``Mama, e-est ce que j-je peu te parler?`` I ask awkwardly as my mom was making some soup.
``Sure sweetie go wait for me in my bedroom we can talk in private.`` I folow her sugestion and wait for her from a few minutes, finally she arrive closing quietly the door behind her.``So honey, what do you want to talk about?``
My hear beat faster and I began to sweat as I look around there was no way out without making this awkward now. ``I-I, you know about Golden Pie?``
``You mean Carrot Top and Soarin daughter?`` Fluttershy ask slowly and quietly.
``Y-yes, I think I have a....`` I muttered the rest imcomprehensibly.
``What was that Winter?`` She look at me encouragely, it must been weird for her to see me as shy as that I’m not like that usually, I’m more along the lines of. A little arrogant like aunt Dash but also a geek like princess Twilight and a little antisocial and a love for nature like mom.
``I-I thinkIhaveacrushonGoldenPie!`` I said really quickly hoping to be over with it. I was really embarassed, not only because she was a filly but also because that was her I had a crush on. Golden Pie was certainly beautiful a lot of colts had ask her to be their fillyfriend in the past.
But lately she’s been a little more... Pudgy than most fillies and some made fun of her for that, I think it’s because Soarin finally retire from the Wonderbolt and pass a lot more time with her than before and we all know how Soarin like food, but I’m not sure if it's the reason.
``Am I weird to like fillies instead of colt like you and Meek Sky?`` I ask nervousely, Fluttershy smile desarming my nervousness instanly.
``Of course not Sweetie, it’s perfectly ok to like other fillies.``
``It is? Do you like girls too?`` I ask innocently, mom blush at the question and shook her head.
``No I do not sweetie, but that don’t mean it’s not okay, my mothers were lesbians too and your aunt Twilight was dating a mare once too. Since the begining of time there been homosexual couples and there have been bigots of course, but no one care about them, there will always have ponies who will judge someponies that are different from them because that make them feel better about their own problems .``
``I don’t know what homowhatever is, but I’m happy you’re not weird out by me`` I said in relief.
``I would always love you Winter Song no matter what you are and what you want to become.`` She put me in a warm embrace and I hug her back I put my muzzle on her mane she always smell like grass for a reason that smell always reasure me.
``Hush now quiet now.
It’s time to lay you’re sleepy head.
Hush now quiet now, It’s time to go to bed.`` As mom continue to sing her lullaby I become sleepy and fell asleep in her arms.

``Eh, Winter I’m happy you like me but it’s not really the place for hugs sweetie`` I blink in confusion and look up and realise I was hugging mom. I flush and put my four hooves back on the ground.
``Ok ponies and Phoebe you’re all ready? Once we send you back in Equestria there will be no more back up, Discord will detect our spiritual signature if we do and that would make your search for the breach harder, we’re good at hiding it but there limits especially with someone like Discord.`` Said the loud multiple voices of Author.
We all nod in responce, a large barrier of light was formed around us before we again dissapear in a flash of magic. It felt like days since we were back home and yet it was only a few hours. I hope they handle themself well back there, don’t worry everypony we’re coming back with help.
