Later that afternoon Colgate and Scootaloo had everypony rounded up at the base and were going to introduce Brevity Thrash to her entire army. Brevity stood behind the platform Colgate was on until the time was right.
Colgate addressed her forces, "Alright everypony, I am sure you are wondering why I have called such an important meeting with such short notice."
Lyra replied, "Actually yeah, I am wondering why you called us together like this."
Colgate said, "Well, as you know by now Twilight and Celestia have finished their sentences on the sun and Celestia has joined our side, for which I am very thankful."
Celestia replied, "Colgate, I want to do anything and everything in my power to prevent Twilight from conquering the world and casting everypony in chains."
Colgate continued, "Well I have done some research and I have discovered that in the beginning there was not only one Goddess Pony, there were two. The other pony is LaurFa's sister." Colgate motioned for Brevity to fly up onto the platform. Colgate added, "And here is the sister of LaurFa, Goddess Brevity Thrash."
Brevity flew up onto the platform and everypony looked in awe. Celestia and Luna looked stunned as they had always been told that Brevity was an old pony tale.
Brevity said, "Hello everypony. We are very happy to help you with Colgate's cause of preventing Twilight from putting everypony in chains."
Celestia said, "Wait, my parents and LaurFa always told Luna and I that you were an old pony tale."
Luna commented, "Big sister, I told you that they were always hiding something."
Brevity replied, "Luna is right. They were hiding something. LaurFa did not want anypony to know about Brevity's existence. She went as far as to hide all mention of us by altering history books. Only the oldest scrolls that predate Equestria mention us."
Lyra asked, "Goddess Brevity, why would they want to hide all traces of you? That isn't very nice. In fact, it is downright mean and disrespectful. What happened to you to be gone for so long?"
Brevity replied, "Ok, Brevity will tell you everything so that you will know her better. If we are going to be fighting on the same side, Brevity does not want there to be any secrets."
Colgate said, "Well Brevity, the floor is all yours."
Brevity began, "Well ok, this comes from eons ago, not too long after Brevity and her tyrant so-called sister basically flashed into existence on this planet. Yes it might sound odd but the two of us just appeared from nowhere. Brevity knows that she had a history elsewhere before we flashed into existence on this planet. Well onto my past, Brevity and her sister flashed into existence over what is now Saddle Arabia. As everypony knows the main type of equine there is the horse, which does not develop cutie marks. At that time there were ponies that started to evolve from them that developed cutie marks and had special talents. They came in three different types, earth ponies, pegasi and unicorns. It was Brevity and her tyrant sister who led them out of that land to other places in the world."
Lemon Hearts asked, "Really? There was a time when Saddle Arabia was inhabited solely by horses?"
Brevity continued, "Yes, there was. We led the ponies that develop cutie marks out of there. Besides developing cutie marks, they began to think on a higher level as well. It was when we were leading them out that Cloudsdale was discovered, which would and did become home to the pegasus ponies. The unicorns moved to the northwest up to what would become the Equine Empire. The land of Neigh Zealand would be home to all three types of ponies and Equestria was to become the home of earth ponies, which Brevity noticed has changed since ancient times."
Colgate replied, "Yes, there are a mixture of ponies in all territories now. Even the horses have to share Saddle Arabia with ponies and there is an Alicorn who is the queen that rules there."
Brevity asked, "Seriously? Who is this Alicorn?"
Lemon Hearts raised her hoof and said, "I am the Alicorn that rules Saddle Arabia. This pony next to me is Lyra Heartstrings, she rules over Neigh Zealand."
Brevity asked, "Who rules over Alicorn Island and the Equine Empire? Brevity already knows Colgate rules here but what about those places?"
Luna replied, "Well your sister currently rules over the Equine Empire and right now myself along with my mom and dad rule over Alicorn Island."
Brevity said, "Well Brevity is hoping to throw LaurFa out of the picture."
Colgate commented, "Brevity, I think you need to tell them about your banishment."
Applejack asked, "Wait a minute, y'all were banished somewhere?"
Brevity continued, "Yes, we were banished somewhere. This all leads back to after we led the ponies out of Saddle Arabia. We moved to Alicorn Island and made it an island for Alicorns and powerful unicorns. Our sister learned a spell that allowed her to transform unicorns into Alicorns."
Celestia interrupted, "Wait, you are really confusing me. I know you are Brevity Thrash but you speak as though you are somepony else talking about her or you are part of a group that she is part of."
Colgate said, "Celestia, everypony else, Brevity speaks differently than most ponies do. So just know she is talking about herself, ok?"
Brevity continued, "Thanks Colgate. Ok, continuing on, Brevity tried to figure out how the energies involved in that spell worked but she just couldn't get it right. While LaurFa was transforming many powerful unicorns into Alicorns, the one unicorn that deserved to be one the most was not transformed into one."
Pinkie asked, "Who was that?"
Brevity replied, "That unicorn was Brevity's star student, Starswirl the Bearded. LaurFa claimed that he did not understand friendship and that was her reasoning for not transforming him. The thing is, he did understand friendship. He was a shy pony like we were. It was because of her stubbornness and refusal to transform our student, the one who wrote more magic than anypony else, into an Alicorn is what led us to war."
Rainbow Dash asked, "Ok, you and your sister went to war. What does this have to do with you being banished?"
Brevity seemed a bit agitated by this question. She rolled her eyes and continued, "Well both of us had many, many loyal changelings and dark unicorns in our armies. We engaged in a great war that not only decimated our armies but caused a lot of non-combatant unicorns and Alicorns to die as well. Finally her forces were triumphant and Brevity was banished to the moon Titan, a moon of Saturn."
Applejack asked, "What? I don't understand that astronomy stuff much."
Starswirl said, "Saturn is a large planet with rings and Titan is a moon that orbits around it that is shrouded in an orange haze. I discovered both of them when I developed a love for astronomy after my dear teacher was banished."
Applejack asked, "So basically it was like how Celestia banished Luna to the moon and how Luna banished Celestia and Twilight to the sun?"
Brevity replied, "Yes, it is. Why powerful ponies like to banish other ponies to celestial objects is beyond us. Brevity has other plans for her, which we will not reveal at this time."
Brevity then looked into the crowd and saw a yellow Alicorn with a pink mane and tail. She asked, "You with the yellow coat and pink mane and tail, who are you?"
Fluttershy replied, "My name is Fluttershy. Wait a minute. The name Brevity Thrash sounds so familiar. I feel like I should know you."
Brevity replied, "You should. Brevity does know you. We escaped Titan for a while a little over a thousand years ago and briefly took control of you, causing you to transform into us and we made everypony scared of you."
Fluttershy flew up to the platform and said, "Brevity, I hope that after this meeting we can hang out and get to know one another!"
Brevity replied, "Brevity hopes that we can as well! Ok, Brevity better finish telling everypony about her life story and then we can do that."
Brevity continued, "Ok, does anypony have any other questions?"
Apple Bloom asked, "Brevity, so y'all are a goddess? Does that mean you could take out Twilight and LaurFa just like that?"
Brevity replied, "Brevity wishes so. The thing is though, LaurFa, our sister, is a goddess as well and Twilight is a dark goddess so it will be tough. However, we have Colgate, who is also a goddess, on our side so we believe it will be a fair fight."
Sweetie Belle said, "Oh thank goodness, I was worried for a minute."
Brevity asked, "Anypony else have any questions?" Nopony said anything. Brevity said, "Well Fluttershy, shall we go talk since we do have similar appearances and know a bit about one another?"
Fluttershy replied, "Sure! That would be wonderful!"
Brevity and Fluttershy headed over to the cafe while everypony else returned to what they were doing before the meeting. Colgate was thrilled that everypony accepted Brevity for who she was and listened to her life story. She would soon discover that Brevity would be the best ally anypony could ever have.
