After falling into the world of Terraria, a mare named Beatrix Belladonna must bring balance to the universe, yet with the world on Hardcore Master Mode, will she pull it off, or will she and those she'll meet fall to the corruption?
“The only problem is that I can’t use my portals anymore! It’s almost as if my mana reservoirs have been tapped out and my connection to my stronger forms has been blocked off! I need to go to that home Midnight, my home!” The unicorn cried out, her horn sparking with magic but unable to fire anything off.
Mana reservoirs?
“Please…” Beatrix begged. “Yes I know the danger, but I’ve faced tougher foes before!” The mare stated, causing the stallion to roll his eyes and shake his head.
Wasn’t that when she had her magic?
“Hmm… I don’t know… maybe fighting somebody who not only was the son of a creator of worlds but who had harnessed the power of the sun itself and was a Vice Lord, one of the most dangerous figures in the multiverse?” The mare answered, causing Midnight’s eyes to widen as he began to calculate just how strong such a figure must be. The numbers he ended up with shocked him to the core.
When did that happen?
“By Terraria… If she’s able to face such a being… then surely the Legend of Cthulhu would be nothing compared to her.” The blue pegasus whispered, making sure that Beatrix didn’t hear what he said. After taking a few seconds to think about it, Midnight let out a sigh as he resigned his position. “Fine, let’s go ahead then. If what you said is true, well the least I can do is put a bit more faith in you.” The blue pegasus said, causing Beatrix to smile.
Is he sure that’s a good idea?
“We’ve just entered a desert biome. Think about how Terraria is made up of multiple endless worlds, but on a smaller scale. We’re just jumped to another ‘world’, a micro planet with its own features, enemies, and materials. When standing between two biomes, it’s like you’re standing in the middle of a portal, letting you see both sides without actually stepping into any of them.” The Guide explained. Slowly nodding and understanding the concept, Beatrix slowly began to walk ahead, moving over large sandy slopes while making sure she didn’t accidentally bump into any of the prickly plants.
So it’s like going to different planets without leaving earth?
“Well, wooden armor and weapons will only get you so far, which is why I’m worried about staying outside during the night.” Midnight said, only to wince as Beatrix wrapped her hand around her shoulder, bringing him into a friendly hug.
I think you mean “his”.
Eventually, the two soon began to become tired, the two resting on the snowy ground, the cold no longer bothering them as they tapped into the area’s natural magic which provided them with warmth.
They could do that?
“I’ve… I’ve never learned how to fly.” Midnight said, much to Beatrix’s shock, her mouth becoming wide open. “I was young when my dad left, which meant that I wasn’t able to learn how to fly and became a grounded pegasus. Not like he could’ve helped anyway since he was a unicorn and my pegasus mother ended up dying or going missing when I was still a foal. As I said, things in Terraria are very rough.” The blue pegasus stated, though his mentioning that his father was a unicorn caused Beatrix to pause for a moment as she remembered some details about the Midnight from her world.
What details?
The mare instinctively raised her sword just when the zombie was about to slap her with the rotten arm, the two weapons meeting in the air, but even though it was rotting away, the zombie somehow proved to be much stronger than her, pushing her back.
That would be a terrible way to die.
Echoes soon began to fill her head as her life began to drain away, and the last thing that she could remember was something grabbing her underneath her arms and hauling her into the air before she blanked out.
10929557 (1) Yeah. Mana reservoirs. In Terraria you can actually cast spells which require Mana. But as a new player you start with like 20 which is really low. (2) yeah but there have been times she didn't have magic to rely on and still managed (3) in her timeline in the past (4) not really but he is a bit more relaxed (5) Kind of. The environment shifts when entering a new biome (6) oops (7) yeah in Terraria you don't get cold in a snowy biome unless you actually step in cold water. Then you get a debuff, but it seems the player is fine elsewhere. This is my interpretation (8) something concerning her version of Midnight (9) yep (10) answer in next chapter
a short but good chapter

1. Wait, so mana is some sort of magic life force? Also, what did she mean by her stronger forms?
7. If that’s true, then why aren’t they cold anymore?
10929654
(1) no. Just magic casting energy
(7) they arent?
Nice chapter, lots of lore and plot development, plus some cute scenes between Beatrix and Midnight! Love the snowball fight!
10929939
Me too!
10929879
1. That’s interesting. What about her other forms?
7. It said that the cold no longer bothered them.
10930208
That would be revealed later.
Oh and yeah entering the snow biome would at first make them shiver but they then adapt using the innate magic.
10929939
Anything you want to ask?
10930258
Nope.
10930281
Alright.
10930257
What’s innate magic?
10930394
The regular magic of Terraria
10930400
So they just adapt to the cold?
10930420
Ye
10930435
So the innate magic is in their bodies and that’s how they adapt to the cold?
10930533
From Terraria
10930542
Ok, I think I see what you mean. So they’re using terraria’s magic to adapt and not get cold?
10930668
Yes
10930672
Ok thanks
