The changelings are no longer creatures of violence. They are no longer shady, private, hostile and fierce. They no longer are the acting steel hoof of Chrysalis' will. Time has changed them, and to Pharynx, it has changed them for the worse.
Pharynx won't ever accept these new Changeling customs. He won't ever accept the lovey-dovey ways of his peoples. Even on his death bed he won't ever sympathize for the Ponies like his people do. Maybe he'll tolerate, for the sake of Her.
A permanently disqualified Babs Seed from the Pony Boxing Federation. A down-on-his-luck Button Mash with his heart broken and his future gone, forced move to Manehattan. Babs Seed offers him an avenue to boxing, and she be his coach.
