somethings aren't meant to be found. Twilight finds a map to a tomb that was sealed for a damn good reason, and learns this the hard way.
Throughout history, ruins and relics have been lost to the sands of time. Most of these are artifacts and places of great value and import, but what if there were some things that were never meant to be found? Artifacts and ruins so evil, their mere presence corrupts the most innocent of souls to the promises of power. One such artifact is sought by Celestia herself, but for purely innocent intentions: The Overlord's Armor. This relic was thought to have belonged to an ancient being, who ruled as god among the ancient races of men, elves, and dwarves, and commanded an army of powerful minions to do his bidding. Needless to say, His armor was said to be the source of his dark power, and has been long sought after by collectors and historians for years, but no lead was ever found... Until now. Now, commissioned by the princess herself to find this relic, Twilight and her friends go two the barren wastelands of the overlord's old tower to find his tomb, and his armor with it... But sometimes, Power and riches can come with a very evil price...
Twilight Sparkle was reading a book on magical artifacts when she noticed a loose inside cover in the back. Lifting the paper up a bit, she saw the tip of a map. "What's this?" She asked no one in particular. Unfolding the paper, it showed a lost landscape and labeling many sundered land marks. Only one landmark was not so. The Tyrant's Gate. At that moment Spike walked in. "Hey twi, Whatcha looking at?" The little dragon asked. "I found this old map. I think it could lead to something powerful. Could you see if we have anything on a landmark called 'The Tyrant's Gate'?" Twilight said. "Sure." Spike said. Spike left to find the requested materials. While spike tried to find the book, Twilight wrote a letter to Celestia.
"Dear Princess Celestia, I have discovered an ancient map that reveals the secret location of The Tomb of The Overlord. I wish to recover the Armor of The Overlord and donate it to the Canterlot Museum of History and Magic. If you could send me any modern maps of the 'Magical Wasteland' region, I would appreciate it.
Your faithful student, Twilight Sparkle."
As Twilight finished her letter, Spike returned With a book on Minotaur myths and legends. "Oh good, I just finished a letter to Celestia. Could you send it?" Twilight asked. "Sure." Spike said. He incinerated the scroll with his breath, sending it to Celestia. "Oh, And here's the book you want." "Thanks Spike." Twilight said as she opened the book and looked up the Tyrant's Gate. As she read the legend behind the landmark, a small detail became apparent. "So the blue ooze creates monsters from everything it touches." Twilight said aloud. Now she knew that. At That moment, Spike belched up a letter and a bag of food and medical supplies. "What's this?" Twilight said. She picked up the letter and read it out loud.
"Dear Twilight, I must inform you that The Armor You seek is not an easy quest. Because the Armor itself predates even dragon kind as we know it, I have given you supplies for your journey. If you can retrieve the ancient relic, The museum Curator would be more than happy with your discovery. Remember though; what ever you do, do not touch the blue ooze. It will twist you, Body, mind, and soul. Please use caution when retrieving The Armor. I have reason to believe there will be six challenges standing before you when you come to the tomb's location.
Sincerely, Princess Celestia."
Twilight was torn between elated and shocked. Now, she and her friends could go on a real quest for the first time in months! However, the danger was incredibly high. She set out to inform her friends, and they packed up for the long quest ahead.
Tyrant's Gate, One week later.
Twilight and company arrived at the entrance to the Magical Wasteland. "Well, here we are girls. The Tyrant's Gate." Twilight said as she and her friends gazed at the Gate like basalt rock formation. "This is so awesome! It's just like one of my daring do books!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed. "Just remember, Don't touch the Blue sludge. It will corrupt you till you are nothing of your former self." Twilight warned. "Okay." Rainbow said. "Alright." said Applejack. "Of course." Rarity said. "Okay." Fluttershy said. "Okie dokie." Pinkie pie said. With that the group set off into the wastes following the map. Along the way, Rainbow noticed something wrong.
"Wait. If the tomb is lost, why is the path to it so clear?" Asked Rainbow. "You're right, it's too easy. It's like something wants us to reach the tomb." Twilight noted. Maybe there was more than the tomb than just a path? Ether way, there were supposed to be six challenges before they could get the armor. Maybe they were in the tomb proper. Meanwhile a pony sized bipedal creature observed the six ponies as they trekked along the path to the final nethereal gate.
"Oh how right you are." It said. The ancient, vile creature sunk back into the shadows, a light on a stick attached to it's back ensuring it didn't kill itself by tripping on a rock. It began a very long trek back to It's home. Back to twilight, She and her friends made it to there first obstacle... a wall and a ravine.
"Fascinating!" Said Twilight. "This architecture is amazing!" she said as she studied the wall. "I don't get what's so amazing, it's just a wall!" Rainbow dash cried. suddenly a rumbling was heard. the six ponies saw a boulder hurtling at them! The ponies screamed and dodged the rolling rock which smashed to peaces against the wall, which, in turn, toppled. The fallen wall provided a bridge across the sludge filled gap. The creature that sent the boulder had slipped away while the ponies were distracted with the big rock. The ponies continued on the path to the overlords prison after agreeing to tone down the volume.
Meanwhile
Gnarl patiently watched the ponies walk the path to the hellish gate. He had to send them a boulder to let them cross a ravine, but it would be worth it if the could bring back the overlord. Knowing heroes, he knew they'd each take on one of the overlords former 'peers' to see what would happen. They'd screw up or win their respective fights. Evil had rebounded from worse. The point of the fights was to 'Discourage' adventurers seeking the armor.
"Evil will always finds a way..." Gnarl said. "Always..." He said again. The one obstacle they had faced was nothing more than a bridge now. The overlord was going to return, and nothing could stop it! He planted the map, he toppled the wall! He now began his long ass trek to the brown hive. Evil had fallen on hard times for close to three thousand years, but now... Now It was Evil's time to shine! Gnarl would see to that...
Twilight and her friends arrived at a dark hollow in a cliff face. Twilight lit her horn so they could see. The hollow itself wasn't very deep for it's medium size but four reliefs were placed against the back wall. The four creatures portrayed by these reliefs were lanky and hunched, even when fully erect. each creature was unique. On the far right from the center of the back, next to the entrance, was a simple creature. It had long, pointed ears, lanky limbs, wore patchwork armor, wielded a rotten arm of someone and had a dead rat on it's head as well. The second relief was not much different from the first. It had a spaded tail, like a dragon, shorter ears, a pair of goat-like horns that curved under, a metal pauldron and metal plate leggings in addition to a loincloth, but it had a flame instead of a normal weapon.
Across the hidden door which Twilight missed, was a different creature, It had a lizard tail, frills in addition to long ears, like those on the first, makeshift, but still consistent armor, a loincloth and a pair of wrist blades. The final creature was some what odd compared to the others. It had leather armor, and frog like feet and hands as opposed to the clawed ones the previous three shared, frills instead of ears, a fish-like tail, and no weapons whatsoever, instead of adopting an intimidating pose, like the other three, It seemed to stare off into space. At the base of each of the reliefs was a circular patch of glowing discoloration. The first had a golden spot, The second a red, Third was green, and the final one was blue. Twilight approached the center of the hollow and jumped back as all four splotches erupted into ash grey stone mounds. each mound had a stone disk over the opening which radiated a small trace of the color it held. Carved into the disks was a face similar to the brown creature's, but heavily stylized. Frankly, It was an atrocious thing to look at.
"What's this?" Twilight more said than asked. She nearly fainted when she looked over it and saw the written equestrian language brutally ass-raped and murdered. But she steeled herself and read the note out loud:
"Der Pecksy ponsis,
IpH yOo weSh tU pruGrus fuRDer iMTu teh masTAh's toOMb, YoO muSHt caUl oWt teh miNUn tRYbes NaMz. hYnt, tEh nAMz Ar bIE Teh StaTuZe. sEnSIrly, GiBLet."
Twilight couldn't believe it. This wasn't all of the tomb? Rainbow Dash immediately began shouting out random colors:
"Rainbow! That's not going to work!" Twilight said. She already knew what colors she had to work with. She cleared her throat and began to recite the colors in the order she noticed them in:
"Browns! Reds! Greens! Blues!" Twilight called out. The secret door opened and the group progressed further. Their troubles were far from over though. They reached a chamber in the back of the tunnel and found some kind of evil teleporter pad. in the center. Around it, Six statues: A dwarf king, a human paladin, an elf warrior infused to a tree, a well past over-sized halfling king, an angry giant, and an envious and prideful thief. Each of the girls touched one of the statues. Rarity, the dwarf. Rainbow, the paladin. Pinkie, the halfling. Fluttershy, the elf. Apple Jack, the thief. Twilight, the giant.
Rarity vs Goldo
Rarity could only watch as the armored figure she became marched forward. Behind it, an army of red minions. She heard a voice speak: "All that mining must have weakened the structure of this place! careful lord, You don't want end up buried in rubble and chunks of dwarf!" She placed her army in front of several dwarven flamethrowers. These minions were completely immune to the fire, but so was their enemy. Rarity's armor used the diversion created by the reds to flank the flamethrowers an it bolted when they started steaming. Rarity stared in horror as the armor swept the minions away from the detonating specialist and all nearby explosives, then swept them over to the next to repeat the brutal process. After she cleared the room, two crossbowmen came out of the next room. she immolated both them in a column of fire. she sent the minions into a secluded area set off from the main room and let them pillage it and take the pile of gold lying in the middle. Once the minions were done pillaging, she marched off into the next room, on one side, there were two pits, one red, one blue. on the right, four mounds which spewed forth the four colors she had seen at the entrance to the tomb.
She swapped out all her reds for greens. She moved deeper in and found a gold clad dwarf identical to the one on the statues. The voice spoke again; "That must be Goldo!" He turned and fled deeper in. She moved to pursue. suddenly a massive machine broke down the doors. Again the voice said: "And that must be Rollie!" The top of the door frame fell down behind it. The army swept leaped on it's back. It used it's flame thrower. Only one or two unfortunate greens were in the way, thankfully. But the greens on the metal behemoth's back all suddenly detached. It then charged forward into the downed doors. It turned around and charged. The armor and the minions took shelter behind a pillar. The machine crashed into it and stunned itself as a bomb dropped from the ceiling. Rarity, rather than use this, deployed the minions behind the stunned steamroller.
They loosed their attack and put the rabid machine down. It started steaming and the exhaust pipes spewed fire instead of smoke. Again the greens detached and the thing charged after the downed door frame. This time, however, It exploded, relieving it to be Goldo within the contraption. He tried to get up. Rarity approached her fallen foe as the minions cried out for his blood. She killed him as he raised his ax to defend himself. The sword she carried swung itself practically, and Goldo exploded into some kind of black substance. The voice spoke as Rarity swept the greens over the fallen kings death bed: "Look at all that Evil Energy, sire!" Then everything faded to black...
Evil had found the way... Because evil always finds a way...
Fluttershy witnessed the slumbering warrior awaken. The tree he was infused to rose up slightly, as if standing. Then he spoke: "Once I deserted my people, my forest, and I have have been punished. I will not desert them again!" He spouted ancient runes as he shot roots up from the earth while Fluttershy ran around to dodge them. Fluttershy was mortified as she sent little brown creatures like the one out side the tomb to attack her foe's exposed torso. As they the beat the poor elf, he spoke again: "You shall feel the suffering of Evernight... Every broken branch, every fallen leaf." suddenly the minions returned to the autopiloted Fluttershy and the elf cried out in agony. "Roots... Boring into my brain. I cannot control it. They are coming... They are coming!" Suddenly giant toads entered the Frey. She dispatched these with the aid of her browns. Oberon resumed his regular attack pattern. "My nightmares... It brought them forth." Oberon said. The minions returned to Fluttershy's side as Oberon's agony flared again and he spoke: "The blackness... The Shadows... Cease! Cease! Leave me!" His agony brought forth two unicorns Who looked vaguely like male versions of Celestia. Their muzzles were stained with blood and their horns were curved. The bloody unicorns charged at the tiny war band only to miss and grind to a halt. On her forced command, The minions charged the unicorns and slaughtered them. As she returned he focus to her foe, the bushes rustled and out came bipedal creatures with bows and features similar to rats and proportionally sized rat skulls for heads. "I cannot control it." Oberon said "It controls me... It controls me!" He hollered in his pain filled agony. The rat skulls were easy prey for her minions. She sent them forth and killed these abominations of Oberon's darkest nightmares. She sent in her minions to brutalize Oberon. "It is weakening... It is weakening!" He shouted as two fat, biped behemoths and two boar skulled monsters marched forward. Fluttershy killed the tattooed beasts first, then the boar skulls, and finally renewed her assault of the elf. suddenly the minions returned to her as part of the twisted tree fell onto Oberon's lap. "Enough. Finish this! Free me from this torment!" The minions cried out for the fatality as Fluttershy strode forward. During the battle, she wanted to cry and now tears fell from Fluttershy's eyes even though they were forced by the automatic force that drover her through this. She struck down poor Oberon Greenhaze. He exploded into black energy and split his prison in half, allowing passage beyond. Then everything faded to black.
Rainbow Dash vs Sir William
Rainbow felt like she was on autopilot as he entered the citadel. It looked more like a place Rarity would enjoy being. She entered with a legion of browns. She then enter some kind of lobby. The guy at the top suddenly spoke: "You! You? Didn't we leave you for dead in that godforsaken tower? You certainly shouldn't be turning up at my party uninvited and flouting the dress code! He fled out a door to the left, deeper into the lavish citadel with a few red robed people. suddenly the remaining 'guests' attacked Rainbow and her minions only to be reduced to gore in minutes. She pillaged the area the strange guy bolted from, then some kind of lobby. she progressed into an unfurnished room filled with red robes. She slaughtered many of them before moving to the middle of the ball room while the fallen paladin made obnoxious commentary. Suddenly the red robes surrounded her with Sir William who spoke: "At least you're good for a little entertainment! I do hope you can stay the distance, Peon!" Rainbow kicked his ass with the aid of her minions. "Ha! I can't believe I spent so long defending the right and the just! I thought fun happened to other people! i can't tell you how good it feels to throw off the shackles of morality and antiquated dogma!" He said as he sprinted deeper in after teleporting out of Rainbow's reach. She and her minions slaughtered everyone between her and the next door. Only one died but it was easily replaced in the next hallway. After pillaging the hall, she progressed to a defiled chapel rededicated to vile acts of depravity. She fought two demons within. She won having lost not a single minion to the vile whore-demons. That's when Sir William the Black spoke again: "Hmmmm, you have a little skill, Peasant! But do not over estimate it... I have more!" She progressed deeper in towards the final chamber. she approached a broken wheel next to a door. A feminine voice in the room on the other side of it spoke: "I'm in Here! And tell that greedy Dwarf king that he can't have his wedding presents back! If I'm not going to have a wedding, I at least want presents!" Another feminine voice, this time in Rainbow's head, sighed. "That's velvet..." It said. Rainbow entered the final chamber. Sir William stood defiantly in the middle. "The wizard taught me how to seek my freedom. I won't let you take it, you uncouth lout... Never!" He said spitefully. This would be the last time The Armor would dance this dance In Rainbow's head. This ended here! Rainbow and her minions charged the king of the red robes. They slaughtered all in their way. Willy teleported away Forcing Rainbow to call back her minions, then she charged the bastards in red. After killing the cattle, she charged after the black-hearted paladin, her teleported back tho the ground and said: "The wizard is watching! He is always watching!" Rainbow chased down and mauled the shameless paladin. "There are no pleasures greater than those of the flesh!" He said. Then He fled and she chased him down and mauled him again. Finally every one in the room gathered around as he crawled to the center of the room to be executed. Rainbow had no qualms about killing this pervert. She marched forward with her minions cheering her on. Then she swung. And Sir William blew up into a black substance and everything faded away into black.
Pinkie walked in to some kind of dining room where evrything was piled up to the side and an over-sized halfling was literally stuffing his face. "Yuck!" one of her minions said, alerting the fat-ass lard ball of their presence.
"Melven ain't so small now!" Melvin said turning around. He then began to waddle towards them. She sent her minions after him eliciting vile commentary from the overweight halfling; "Come 'ere!" He swung his barbecue fork killing one of the minions. She recalled her minions as he was about to jump. As soon as the thousand ton halfling landed, Pinkie sent forth her minions getting more of the gluttonous lard bucket's two cents. "Stay still, tasty snack!" He taunted as he swung his gilded fork and killed another minion. Then he swung again with the same results. Suddenly, the minions returned to Pinkie's side. "Food!" Melvin said as he waddled over to a lowered food dish and scarfed down the food greedily and messily. He turned back around as the tray rose back up. Then he waddled forward again. This time he decided to roll over his 'food'. "Squash food! Eat food!" he said whist rolling around the room trying to flatten his foes. Though he crushed several minions, they got up and were just fine. After he stopped rolling, Pinkie sent her minions after the fat bastard. and launched fireballs at the lard wad. He got back up then rolled after her again. He bowled over two or three minions this time, but they were fine. When he stopped again, she sent in her minions and dove in herself. her minions returned to her side as fatty the living lard supertanker waddled forward to where the tray was to lower. but no food awaited him, and he collapsed on the ground. Pinkie's minions cheered on for regicide as she strode forward.
"Burst him like a balloon master!" A voice in her head called out. She swung the sword and Melvin exploded into a dark substance and an ocean of lard. The voice spoke again: "That is concentrated evil, sire! It accumulates in those of an especially evil disposition!" Then every thing faded away.
Applejack vs Jewel
"What better object to steal than the one everyone wants? Can't Imagine why, it's an ugly looking thing." Jewel said. Applejack had a bone to pick with this brat. Jewel leaped to the middle row and sprinted to the center of town.
"I've managed to increase the energy of that tower gate. But not for long... If you can driver across the gate, I will transport her to your tower. No place to run there!" A voice in her head said. Applejack went right and pillaged the area around the massive statue. She then set out to mop up any raiders Jewel place in the village to kill her and her minions She took to the first roof top and butchered the firebomb raider and his companion. "Block her escape, Master! Drive her towards the tower gate!" The voice said. Then she moved through the village and murdered any raiders that dared to show themselves to her and her minions on her way to the second rooftop. Not a single brown was lost during the horrifying and brutal slaughter. Applejack then placed five minions in front of every single potential exit from the main path. Then Applejack pursued the brat named Jewel towards the tower gate. As Jewel stepped on the pad, something happened. "What?" Jewel said as the ground shook. Then she screamed as a red light enveloped her and shattered a nearby bone wall.
"Good! Our guards are currently incarcerating her. Return when you wish to begin ahhhh... speaking, with our prisoner." The voice said. She returned to the area with the statue after swapping out her browns for blues. She used one minion to grab a tiny beetle to lure a much larger one next to the next bone wall. Then she stuck the massive beetle at least twice and ran as it started to steam and jump. It exploded right next to the wall, shattering it. Then She had her blues take the statue. Hen they were almost to the tower gate, a light blue pad appeared and several elves followed and got between her and the gate they explained they wanted their statue back and so she returned it. She returned to the tower. And saw Jewel in a cage. "The young lady has been restrained, sire!" A withered, gray, and wrinkled brown said. It was the voice from her head! Applejack walked over to the scene.
"Let me go! Do you know who I am? do you know who I work for?" Jewel said as several minions taunted and prodded her. She tried to get as much distance from the minions as the cage allowed.
"Spirited creature. A few days in my iron maiden will sort that out!" The grey one said.
"Look... Wait, I don't do pain. The wizard... He wanted me to pinch the statue. No idea why, He even payed me! Ha, I would have done it for free! There's nothing like the rush of the steal!" Jewel said. Suddenly the whole tower shook violently. "That's Khan! He's coming for me! I wouldn't wanna be you right now!" Jewel taunted.
"That warrior Isn't happy that you've snatched his lady-friend, lord." The gnarled minion said starting for the balcony. "He's attacked spree! You must stop him before he kills all your worshipers!" He said as they made it to the balcony. Then everything faded to black.
Evil Was one step closer to victory... Because Evil always finds a way...
Twilight gasped in horror as the lanky Minotaur like creature ran under the floating eye like creature and died. Her new body face palmed at the sight as if this was just typical of their kind, much to her own horror: Did this body know nothing of mercy, or even guilt? She had an army of red minions behind her as she strolled around, or, rather, her body did, and poised them to attack the creatures she decided to call Beholden, though she knew not why. After killing the creatures and the raiders they produced, she swapped her reds for greens at the odd, glowing pits at the place this nightmare began. At the rear of the town, she found a fiery version of the Beholden, and wanted to cringe at the sight of the ugly thing, but her body just shrugged, and walked toward it. The Ensconced Beholden deployed red-cloaked raiders, which lobbed firebombs, as opposed to the kunai the black cloaked raiders used. After being hidden, the greens leaped from their hiding place and viciously attacked the Ensconced Beholden, killing it in but a few seconds. She walked over to the front of town and was met with the groveling peasantry.
"Um... We didn't mean to betray you, Sire, it just sort of... Happened." One said.
"We were weak... Forgive us... Let us worship you again, Sire." Another pleaded.
"They have the loyalty of potatoes, Sire." A voice in Twilight's head said. "Do with them what you will, but make it quick; Kahn is heading for Heavens Peak!" It continued. Her body, after contemplating its options, kicked the peasants and walked away, to Twilight's disgust. Clearly, this thing knew nothing of decency, and only existed to bully others. Still, despite her feelings, she made her way back to the tower gate and swung by the tower to gather power. Finally, Heaven's peak awaited her, and her body walked forth, ready to face the giant, Kahn. Twilight, in the body of the overlord, made short work of one regular and two Ensconced Beholden with first an army of reds then greens. Swapping the greens for reds, she walked across a bridge and encountered the giant who'd been terrorizing her, or, the overlord's, peasants. Without provocation, and to Twilight's shock, The massive giant jumped into the air, and stomped the ground, killing peasants around him. Then, upon seeing the overlord, the giant focused on Twilight, hatred in his eyes, and spoke:
"You! I know you! You took her away from me! You make Kahn angry!" With a mighty stomp, a building collapsed behind Twilight, and the fight began. She placed her reds behind some rubble and lured Kahn over to it. Once in range, her minions released their attack, and all Twilight had to do now was keep Kahn in range. After a few minutes of this assault, Kahn retreated, Breaking a collapsed building in the process. Then, the giant named Kahn spoke once more:
"You hide her for him! He wants to hurt her!" Twilight did not know of whom he was referring to, but her body did not care. She followed nonetheless, not so much oblivious to the danger, as unable to stop the creature she viewed this scene from.
"She is mine! He can not stop me! You can not stop me!" Another building collapsed. She then sent her minions to turn a wheel, Preventing more raiders from entering the city that way. She kept her reds out of the main fight while she held the mighty giant's attention, and after a few minutes of dodging the titanic blows of the behemoth before her, He fled yet again.
"I will CRUSH! Crush you and the old man! I... Will... Find her!" Twilight continued pursuit of Kahn, though she felt horribly wrong about the whole scene. Yes, Khan was violent, but why? Why all the destruction? Why was the body she was viewing this from doing this? "I Protect! She needs Kahn!" That's three buildings now. She used all her mana to dispose of two Beholden on the sight. She deployed her reds on the ledge in front of the inn above the fighting ring. Distracting Kahn was no harder now than it was two rounds ago, and finally, The warrior fell to his knees, screaming in pain and sadness at his loss... all of them.
"Jewel! Jewel!" Kahn cried, his voice full of pain, and Twlight tried to back out of the vision, but the being kept her there, forced to witness as he slaughtered the giant in cold blood.
"Strike, Master! Finish him." The voice in her head, whom she had seen at the tower once, said. Despite her will, she struck, and Kahn yelled again as he convulsed and lifted into the air. Finally, the giant exploded into darkness, and she was called back to the tower while everything faded to black.
Outside the tomb, Gnarl watched the wee little wyrm sleep on the red minion gate. He was disgusted by the purple thing, but if the plan was to succeed, he needed it alive.
"Ah, such innocence. Sickening, is it not?" Gnarl asked a blue who he swore woke up every day and made it his goal to be as terrifying as possible. Said minion, who was dressed in a large, all-encompassing cloak and wielded a great, deadly-looking scythe, said nothing. Still, he walked over to the dragon and tied it up, obeying the unspoken orders of the overlord's right-hand imp. Two browns then picked it up, and carried it off to the hive. The robed blue stood watch outside as Gnarl walked onward. He silenced his light for when he would make his dramatic entrance, then walked and saw the ponies were not done with their glimpses into the Overlord's memories, so he hid. Once they were finished with the sight they all gasped, and they soon began comparing the fragments of memories.
"Wait. What if this is just to deter us from finding the Armor?" Twilight asked. Unaware of the evil creature in close proximity. Suddenly in a flash of dark red light and a light tremor, the armor appeared in all it's glory.
"The Armor!" the mares cried in unison.
"Don't you mean My armor?" A voice said. The Mares looked to find a familiar changeling queen blocking their only exit.
"Chrysalis!" The mares cried in unison.
"I'm flattered you still remember me." She said as she gave a mock-bow.
"You can't have the Armor! It belongs In Canterlot, not your private collection!" Twilight said.
"You really think I'm just going let it gather dust in my palace? Let me explain why I really want it. You see, This armor was not only the source of his power, but it also gave the Overlord control of his army. I want it so I can control the legions of monsters he did." Gnarl unwrapped his light and interrupted her monologue.
"You should have really check you facts before coming here. Having any overlord's armor doesn't give you control of the minions or his powers. You must be an overlord. And I'm afraid It's a little late for that." Gnarl chuckled as he look up to his master who literally went to hell and back. The Overlord opened his eyes revealing the glowing red-white orbs. He observed his surroundings. There was only silence as the metaphorical targeting system locked onto Chrysalis. The Overlord made a threatening gesture to Chrysalis.
"I believe he's trying to say; 'You have twelve seconds to run before I hunt you down and murder you in the most grotesque and painful way possible, then resurrect you so I can do it again'. That, or he's looking for the nearest toilet. I'm inclined to go with the former." Gnarl said.
"Ha! You think I'm scared of a glorified field commander with no real skill in battle?" Chrysalis said. That statement upgraded her from number ten million on his hit list to number one on his shit list. Sure, he wasn't a paladin, or even a knight but he was as sure as the time he spent in hell a very skilled fighter. And Chrysalis was going to learn that the hard way...
