Three, Three, Three. All Numbers Are Three

Three, Three, Three. All Numbers Are Three

Three, Three, Three. All Numbers Are Three

The Fourth Is Sheilded Heart

Winter Falls Before Their Eternal Fire

The Fourth Is Violent Lust

Born Of Their Death's Will Be Flurry's Protector

The Fourth Is Love's Birth

For Only Kindness And Chaos Can Birth Love

From Them Shall

Come Those That

Shall Save or Destroy Us All

Bless These Final Words
And Keep Them Hidden
Lest The Enemies At The Root Of All Things
Find The Guardians
Before The Guardians Are Prepared

But Never Forget, For

Those That Wait
Those That Corrupt
Those That Seal
Those That Freeze
Those That Enforce
Those That Hunt

They Will Never Forget

In Forgetting We Fail
In Forgetting We Fall

These Are Those Heresies That Appear Alongside The Red Laments. They Have Been Spoken By Only One DIscordant Oracle. One That Does Not Know The Glory Of The Three That Are One. No Others Have Spoken Of These Things. No Others Have Called Them Into The Darkness.

But He Has Never Been Wrong, Even Though We Hope That Just This Once He Will Be.

The Nameless One, The Prophet Mentioned Above, Also Differs On One Other Matter. Bless These Words, Even As You Fear Them. For They May Foretell The Rise Of The Child Of Rage And Lust. Please Let Him Just This Once Be Wrong. For We Can Not Trust Such A Child With Such A Precious Treasure

One Of Blood Sired
The First From The Mirror Gate
Beloved Of The Self Exiled Daughter

One of Knowledge Lost
The Second Is Held In The Crystal Castle
In Her Remembrance Is He Found.

One Of Shadow Sired
The Third Is Held In Coldest Heart
Feared By Her Summoner

To Friendships Home They Shall Gather

He Laughs upon us all, this Heretic of Our Order. We may not silence him, for the Ladies forbid it, for Luna, Celestia, and Discord forbid it. For The Head Of Out Order Forbid It. What Hold Does He Have? That
Those Most Sacred Of Beings, That Even Order And Chaos Move Not Against Him. But He Has Never Been Wrong And His Words Have Been Decreed To Never Be Forgotton, So Shall They Be Remembered. So Shall They Be Recorded. He Differs As Well In The First Part Of The Red Laments, Those Called The Bloody Laments For The Tradition That They Always Be Written In Red Ink To Honor Them First Being Written In The Blood Of The First Oracle To Speak Them. Upon Her Very Skin. In Her Own Hand. So Of Course He Writes Them According To His Whim And We Are Forced To Record His Version As He Has Decreed It. As He Wrote His First "Installment"
So We Write It.

What Happens When The Elements Die
When Loyalty Falls To Envy
When Laughter Falls To Wrath
When Honesty Falls To Greed
When Generosity Falls To Gluttony
When Kindness Falls To Sloth
When Forgiveness Falls To Pride
When Magic Falls To Lust

What Is Called Then?
How Shall These Broken Heal Equestria After All Others Have Failed?
Who Shall Heal Them That Heal Us?
For All Debts Must Be Balanced
As All Must Be In Harmony

What Can Be Done When Loyalty Betraying Is The Father Of Obsession
Twitch That Shall Be Known As Suspicious Bystander, The First To Be Born Of Three Parents

What Can Be Done When Friendship Isolating Is The Father Of Eclipse
Eclipse That Shall Be Known As Obsidian Nightshade The First To Be Drawn From Changeling Brood.

What Can Be Done When Laughter Is The Father Of Insanity
That Shall Be Known As

Thus Shall The First Of The Seals Shall Be Broken On The Deaths Of Those That Wait And Those That Corrupt.
Their Names Known As Oblivion
Their Names Called As The Wyrm
Thus The First Of The Seals That Keep All At Bay Shall Fracture
And In The Victory Of The Called Shall Be Freeing Of The Doom.

This He Will Mutter And No More. We Know That He Sees Further Ahead, But He Scorns Us, Yelling Of Spoilers. He Scorns Our Ladies As Well. He Scorns All But Celestia, Luna, And Discord. He Is Loyal To Them. He Is Loyal To Equestria Or So He Claims. He Has Never Been Wrong, Nor Has He Ever Lied. But Please By The Ladies Be Wrong Just This Once. For This Reason These Are Declared Heresies, For This Reason They Are Recorded. For In Forgetting We Fail, In Forgetting We Fall
