Story fourteen in my Twidash Challenge: Alternate Universe

History is a mystery to even those who know it well. For no matter how deep we dig, there will always be another layer to uncover. For every mystery solved in the texts of time, there is another that is quick to take its place. Ruins are discovered, monuments resurrected, or maybe just an old text finally having the dust swept from it. There are so many ways history can be found.

But sometimes, those few dark times, there is a history that truly is better off forgotten.

After an ancient ruin is uncovered, and its finders missing, it is up to the Elements of Harmony to answer the mystery of the ruin's history. Or else they may fall to the same mistake again.

A love/apology letter to all my Pangur Ban and One Last Game readers. Focusing on Karl from Castle of Nations/Law of Talos, I hope to make him every bit as terrifying, powerful, and charismatic as he was before. I hope you enjoy.

P.S. If this story embodies any tropes, it’s Bloodless Carnage, Exact Words, and Power Source.

Octavia was always one for planning ahead. Whether it be dinner that night or her career years away, she always had an idea of how to get there. The right amount of practice, the proper performance to the right pony, and she could see her life progressing exactly as it should.

However, suddenly turning into an alicorn kind of put a damper on her plans.

Twilight has always loved mysteries. Researching them, dissecting them, and finally, solving them. Almost nothing could compare to the joy she feels when finding an answer to a question no pony knew.

But there are mysteries with answers better left unheard, truths that aren't meant to be known. Now Twilight has solved a mystery with an answer she doesn't want, an answer she can never forget.

Looking back, it should have been obvious. It wasn't at the time of course and they knew that, but it was now. All those brief moments they spent together, the close encounters, it was like they were dancing around the subject.
And it all began with something so very small.

Set during season two.
