"A key, to where?" Celestia said as Lotus paced around frantically.
"They took them to the Void. We need to save them." Lotus tried her best not to panic.
She looked down the balcony when she heard a pony. A particular hospital patient stumbled out weakly as the ship disappeared.
"Fluttershy!" He yelled out as he reached his hoof out to the sky.
"A shame." She said. "I will rally the Tenno. We will-"
Lotus stopped and put her hand to her head. She felt something missing.
"Loki." she whispered.
Lotus ran out to see Volt and Excalibur laying on the very edge of Canterlot. The two struggled to even stand up.
"What happened?"
Volt collapsed while Excalibur simply looked at her.
"Who was he, Lotus? They claimed to be one of us. Yet, he murdered Loki in cold blood."
Lotus sighed, she knew the day would come.
"He was right. The stalker is one of you." she said.
"What do you mean?" Excalibur asked.
Lotus closed her eyes and focused. "Tenno, while I know you are questioning what happened to Loki, I will answer your questions."
Ash stopped what he was doing and began to sit while hanging his head down. the ponies saw the rest of the Tenno do this as well.
"You are all being hunted. Not by the Grineer, but something much worse. A lone figure who takes vengeance upon those who eliminate such high ranking officials of all fractions. He has been around ever since the first Tenno, due to a disease driving him mad. His skills are the ones you inherit."
"If you encounter him, a good chance is, you're are lost. He will stop at nothing to take vengeance upon the fallen leaders. Fight him if you must, but he is no match for you."
"For he is, The Stalker."
