The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

She nods. "I guess that's true..I'll go get my sword then…where do we fight?"
>>495186
As Indy grabs a few more gems he suddenly grows. He's now a tiny bit bigger than you.
He looks surprised but then hisses and grabs the pile of gold and runs for one of the doors.
>>495184
You're there.
The campfire is burning lightly, keeping a campfire going during rain isn't easy even if you have placed some cover above it. You should burn it higher before attempting to contact Pyrrus.

>>495194
Indy doesn't seem to care and for a moment you could swear he had gem signs in his eyes.
He runs in the 1.right/2.left door with his gold and slams it shut.
'1d2'
>>495195
That's looking pretty good, even though it's a bit muddy.
Time for some mud wrestling.
Star arrives with a shortsword and steps into the Arena.
She holds it clumsily in front of her.
Roll #1 1 = 1

>>495202
You slam it open and luckily for you it seems this was a ,rather large, closet. Indy sits on the other end on top of his pile of gold.
There are a number of bottles on the racks on the closet. Some of them covered with a cloth. Other open to inspect, though you'd have to look closer to see them clearly.
>>495203
You slam it out of her hooves easily.
"Hey! Why did you do that?"
>>495204
It's bright enough.
Begin the summoning?

He growls at you.
"My gems!"
>>495235
"The only real way for a pony to contribute is to live a life in harmony with the Balance. Any great irregularities are not your concern, that is our job to deal with. You should focus your attention towards better understanding the Balance of the Elements, so you can better live in harmony with it.
However, I feel you are already taking steps in that aspect."
>>495237
You try to look grumpy.
Star giggles "Now you're just silly!"
He growls at you.
"My gems!"

>>495244
Maybe you're too qt and shiny!
"I grab my sword and do this."
She swings her sword around.
>>495245
"They are quite different than us. The Breezies are far less prone to violent outbusrst than my servants. But they are shy, very shy. It would take time for one to feel comfortable enough to approach you.
They are a little more friendly towards pegasi and griffons though, because they both love flying."
>>495243
"But I want the shinies!" Indy's voice has changed a bit, its deeper somehow.

>>495256
He grows a bit bigger with the few bottles.
He manages to block you and you're both wrestling for control.
He grits his teeth that are starting to look more like daggers now.
"The shinies are mine!"
>>495257
"Some mages have the ability to summon the Breezies down to the earth. Neither you nor this Warren are capable of that at this moment. However, there is a spell that could bring you up there. A spell that grants wings, your friend should be able to perform it."
>>495258

As you're wrestling for control, the closet swings open again.
There stands Bedrock and if an angry gaze could kill both of you would have been torn to pieces right now.
>>495264
The fire cracks and a small piece of partially burnt paper flies out.
You catch it and see some runes drawn upon it.
>>495266
>>495267
And she '1d10'
>>495271
You both arrive there.
As Amber said, she put the pot of the fire and it isn't burnt.
Vilina looks at it."Guess we should take a bite as well."
She grabs a bowl and fills it with soup.
Roll #1 10 = 10

>>495277
You got yourself a bowl of good soup.
It smells delicious.
>>495279
And she '1d10'
>>495280
He looks at both of you and a hoof goes into his bag.
"Both of you have exactly 10 seconds to explain to me what both of you are doing here."
His voice is rasp and all the usual merriness is gone from his voice.
Even Indy in his current state seems….uneasy.
>>495282
star is sparring against Amber, Mabel is near the fire, Soil is gone, Iris is collecting the books. Warren is eating with Vilina.
Roll #1 6 = 6

"It requires willpower to learn. This Warren will have to concentrate for this spell. Fly into the heavens carrying something as tribute.
The Breezies love colorful flowers. They will come."
>>495290
"Did he now…he must have gone really crazy to think he can get away with stealing from me…and what are you doing here? Didn't you notice the big Do Not Disturb sign out there?"
>>495291
"Why are you with these dorks?"
>>495293
She manages to get the best of you.
She has a cocky grin.
"Amber, stop holding back!"
+2 to Stars next roll because of Snacks cheering.
She attacks with her blade '1d10+2'
>>495294
You cheer on Star who gets a +2 to her next roll.
As for coaching, you'll have to tell her that.
Roll #1 1 + 2 = 3

"Oh, don't worry. I'll handle that." says Bedrock with a grin.
One of the bottles rolls off the shelves into your hooves, there's something inside…something small and moving. You can't see it too clearly.
>>495303
>>495299
>>495311
Amber stops holding back and pushes Star back into the ground.
"I yield! I yield!"
>>495306
"But they're so….dumb, well perhaps with the exception of mister Bedrock. Your talents could be spent far better…"
>>495312
"Do not get emotional in any way. The Breezies might seem random and cheerful but they're creatures of pure reason. Anger or happiness is misplaced in their company. Use logic at all times when dealing with them.
Try to get an audience with either the Lord of the South or the East. I know them and they know me, they'll be more lenient with you."

>>495315
I'll let out a small laugh.
"I suppose they are, or at least Soil is. Amber is simply naive, and Snacks is a bit of a fish out of water. But I wouldn't trade them for much of anything. They've saved my life, and I theirs, too many times to just discard them."
I'll take a bite of soup.
"And as for Bedrock, he's a bit conniving, really, and he's full of secrets. I trust him about as far as I can throw an Ursa."

>>495322
The whole thing is mud actually, it's raining.
>>495320
>>495322
"Thanks, Snacks."
You're both up.
"Yeah, I'll try to do better next time. You're too strong, Amber."
>>495323
The voice fades again.
>>495324
"He's cunning, this Bedrock. You might be right, not to trust him…"
>>495325
You look better at the bottle and there's a tiny griffon inside it, banging against the glass.
You look up again to see Bedrock blowing a powder over both you and Indy.
Roll.

Roll.
>>495336
You sneeze and open your eyes again.
You're in the tent of Bedrock, Bedrock is sitting at his table, you and Indy are sitting in front of it.
You have forgotten what happened when you went into the tent up till now. As far as you're concerned you and Indy just went into the tent. You've also got a sudden headache and feel like there's something missing.
Bedrock looks up from counting his money.
"Yes?"
>>495338
"Do you know where he gets all that stuff from? I've never seen such a collection of artifacts."
>>495339
She blushes. "Thanks."
>>495342
"What a good idea! But maybe not today, one defeat is enough for me for now."
She smiles.
>>495349
He's in one of the tents with Vilina.

>>495358
"What labyrinth?"
>>495360
Vilina, Warren and Mabel are here.
>>495362
"Of course not."
>>495366
He looks it over.
"Mimic eggs. Not really worth much, though they can have fun results when you throw them amidst a pile of books, I once did that when I visited the Library of Cloptantinople.
Always got a few of these in my stash since then."
>>495371
"Right, I should get back to the tent. Are you coming with me?"
>>495373
"Ah, not a lot I'm afraid. But I heard there was something going on, some inner trouble. Called the whole family together, they did."
He pauses. "Uh..well most of the family at least, my apologies."

"You wanted to eat them? That should work. Though I recommend putting some garlic and cheese on the omellette, it got quite a peculiar taste, or so I've been led to believe.
Now, let me have a look at that shield…"
>>495386
"What was it like?"
>>495388
"As do you."
>>495392
"Oh right."
She grabs a towel and tries to rub some off, but can't quite reach her back.
>>495394
You were away far. You expect them to make sure to know exactly where you are in a country that they're prepping to go to war with?
>>495396
Perhaps near the fire?

"Well, have fun with that."
I'll wave her as she goes.
>>495399
I'll think a moment.
"It was mostly long hallways, with curtains over the entrances and an endless number of doors. And it moved while you were in there."
I'll frown.
"But it's not the shifting and getting lost that's the dangerous part. It's what else is in there with you. Or could be in there with you."

"Not just your family of course. The King is, the Great Houses are, as always, well informed. And, while it might be a bit presumptuous of me, but if they did not invite you, they might not want to listen to your counsel."
>>495409
You help pretty nicely.
"Thanks, Snacks. You're so helpful to me. I wish there was something I could do to repay you."

"Confound this."
"I, as much as any other gryphon here, would prefer the ponies be part of Hyperborea. I've been to their lands, each of them lost to lawlessness and whatever strongclaw happens to come by at the time. But, what i'm worried is not about the Equestrians, but of all the beasts their lands seem to be awakening.There have been all manner of monsters that I have dealt with, but even I doubt we could fight off that creature without suffering heavy casualties in a straight battle."

"Pleasant? That would be a first."
>>495424
"Okay, hold still." '1d10'
>>495429
The Lord scratches his beak.
"You say there is a creature there that could stand against the combined might of the Griffons? That is quite a claim!"
>>495430
"We got most of what we need. However, what will we do with those shield pieces? I could fix them, but I seem to recall last time that you made a new one yourself."

Try not to squee.
Please continue to provide me with the divine powers I need to defeat the wicked and heal the wounded. I am but a humble servant of your will, honored to serve you until the end of days. If I stray off this path, punish me so that I may righten myself again. Guide me and my friends among the right path… especially Vilana!

"It leveled a good part of a town without noticing, and even direct blows to its heart with my new-found companions seemed to have given it more vigor."
"As much as I believe in the strength of our people, going after it with an army simply means it doesn't have to go far to cause as much damage in one place. Worst of all is that we can no longer locate it. Every tie we felt like we were closing in, another creature appears."

>>495436
"You're an undead? You seem pretty lively for an undead."
>>495438
Lots of trees here.
You chomp down one about as big as a large house and 3 times as thick as you. But this way you'll definately have enough, right?
>>495441
She doesn't answer in words but you are filled with a feeling of total assurance that everything will work out in the end.
>>495450
"That seems most grave…Dare I ask, I have received some unsettling reports lately. Of an enormous dragon to the south, I didn't put much belief in it. Is this the creature you speak of?"

"I pray to the Ancestors that it is. Another one and I daresay our armies are better suited to evacuating the Equestrians to our land and writing the rest off."
"Perhaps if I could reach my family and request some assistance. Even if they write me off, just explaining it as a scouting mission would be beneficial to everyone."

"Impressions can be deceiving as well. Especially first ones."
>>495454
Of course you do.
Not a big one of course.
"I'll just go to bed now Snacks." She gives you a kiss on the cheek. "And thanks for everything."
>>495456
You've got yourself another shield.
>>495457
She cocks an eyebrow.
"The Laughing One, isn't that the god of parties and clowns?"
>>495460
You should feel happy, paladin!
>>495463
"This is very grave news. You know Pico, perhaps we could do some further business together? Do you return for Equestria soon?"

Stand there for a second before looking back at her.
"Snack is… errr .. ahhhahah…. thanks. Sleep tight Star." I pack what I have and leave for my tent.
Now that we are outside of her tent look around. Is Tulip doing her job or is she in her tent? Also look around on our vicinity if anything is moving.

He's in his tent. And points you to a door on the left.
"There's my mobile workshop put it in there and we'll start."
>>495471
"Yes…I can feel that. There's something of kinship between us."
>>495473
"You see mister Pico, we might be alligned to different Houses, but we are both loyal to Hyperborea, are we not? Your family might think less of you, but I can give you what you need to rise in their graces. Connections within the court and money. With my, silent of course, help, they would have to notice you.
And it just so happens that I am in need of an agent I can trust within Equestria."
>>495474
"That's why I don't like gods. Everything is always so weird with them."
>>495476
>>495483

Tullip is in her tent again.
But everything seems peaceful.

"There's my mobile workshop put it in there and we'll start."
>>495471
"Yes…I can feel that. There's something of kinship between us."
>>495473
"You see mister Pico, we might be alligned to different Houses, but we are both loyal to Hyperborea, are we not? Your family might think less of you, but I can give you what you need to rise in their graces. Connections within the court and money. With my, silent of course, help, they would have to notice you.
And it just so happens that I am in need of an agent I can trust within Equestria."
>>495474
"That's why I don't like gods. Everything is always so weird with them."
>>495476
>>495483
Guess meditation will have to wait.
>>495482
Tullip is in her tent again.
But everything seems peaceful.
>>495494
"It's that look in your eyes.
The look of somepony who's had to fend for herself, whatever the cost, for a long time."
>>495496
Bedrocks workshop is large. And there are all manners of tools and materials.
You also see the hydra brain hooked up to a large number of tubes and guns in the corner.
Bedrock comes in.
"Now before me start, go over what you need again, to make sure we don't make any mistakes."
>>495498
"Can you enter Canterlot somehow and meet with a friend of mine?"
>>495504
You have extremely good dreams about whatever Snacks would dream about.
>>495505
You meditate and clear your head.
Your mission and its purpose become a little more clear in your head.

"I should have no difficulty, unless something else has happened. I have papers for the contracts I've done for many there if they ask for proof of my words or work. If all else fails, did we not have an Ambassador or Consulate there?"
"I hope they are doing alright, since I've left them behind for some time already."

You dream of exploring a large underground cave with Star.
She uses her magic to find gems while you dig them up. You make the perfect team and she's so happy when you dig up another one.
She charges the gems until they shine the most beautiful of colors and you both swim merrilly around in the heaps of countless gems.

[-Leaf Green-
Tha famous shield of the legendary shaman Leaf Green was said to have been made out of wood, yet extraordinarily resistant to all types of damage including fire.
According to the legend, Leaf Green once traveled to the edge of the world where he found a tree the size of a small mountain.
The tree spoke to him and after a brief while, impressed by Leaf Greens wisdom, gave him the honor of cutting his smallest branch. Out of this branch Leaf Green carved this mighty shield.
Others claim the shield was merely enchanted by a powerful geomancy spell.]

Tullip is in her tent, reading a book.
She's supposed to be on watch.

"Yes, there is a consulate there. And that's EXACTLY why I need someone like you."

The scroll details how to cast the spell.
It seems pretty straightforward, except for one detail. The spell requires a certain skill in the Air element.
You can either
>Try to force it (DC8 to cast properly)
>Spend an SP to learn Air element
>Talk to Star or Bedrock about magical trinkets to aid you.
>>496911
"Mistakes? What I did wasn't a mistake, it was society that forced me into that life, branding me with a crime I didn't commit."
>>496912
"I can still hear if there's somepony out there right."

"But I shouldn't have lost it. I was framed. You think I liked leading that drug smuggling ring in Tall Tale? No, but there was no other type of work for ponies branded like me.
And I was pretty good at it, if I say so myself."
>>496922
"Who would trust me? You ponies don't even trust me."
>>496920
"I'm not! I just…do it my own way. Nothing wrong with that!"

"Like you said, some of them aren't quite the brightest brand in the fire, so they tend to put stock in actions. So long as you are friendly with them, they'll grow to like you in turn. It will take a while, certainly, especially for Soil since he's got a rather black and white view of things, but it'll happen. Amber's already trying, after all."
I'll readjust my monocle.
"And let's be honest, do you even want to go back to your hometown? Because if clearing yourself there is that important to you, we might be able to convince Bedrock into taking a detour if we end up going that way."

>>496938
"Well, you know how the sea is really big right. Well, if you get all the way to the end, that's the edge of the world there.
Been there once….Quite an amazing sight."
>>496939
She nods.
"Ponies who can do that must have great control over their body."

I'll stand up.
"Now, I need to see Star about a book, so I'll leave you two ladies to chat."
Tucking the scroll in a spot it won't get wet, I'll head out of the tent in search of Star. If I pass Tulip on the way, I'll say hello.

>>496949
"I'm…not much of a flower pony."

Bedrock facehoofs.
"Okay, let's take this slowly. Soil, you want a shield like this, correct?"

Rolling for Tullip '1d10'

"Well, before going all the way to the edge of the world to go looking for a tree that might or might not be there, why don't we see if we can't enchant and create such a shield ourselves, here, fast?"
>>496974
Amber is pushing Tullip in the mud.
>>496976
You get on top of Tullip and push her face down in the mud.
She grumbles "…sorry."

You don't really get them off each other.

"Are you sure you weren't too hard on little Amber?"
>>497027
Multiple apples for you. Big red ones.
>>497026
You feel a cold shiver running over your back.
It feels like the one you felt from that cube.
But Warren should have destroyed that one by now….
>>497018
You feel a chill going over your back.
As if it suddenly got colder…
There's a noise coming from the bushes.

You choke on one of the apples and yadadada apple prince, blablablabla space yadadada dragon king blabla long story short, you arrive back with your seeds. Bedrock is standing in a small clearing.
In his hooves he's carrying a flask with a bubbling neon green liquid inside.
On it is written "DANGER. PROPERTY OF THE OFFICE OF THE HOLY INQUISITION. DO NOT OPEN."
Bedrock nods smiling. "Got those seeds?"
>>497034
You find him in Stars tent.
>>497035
Everything is dirty, Tullip had a nice bath however…
>>497036
"Sure, what do you want to know?"
>>497037
You look through the bushes…but nothing there.
There's another noise a little further into the woods.
>>497038
You start feeling uneasy.
Your shaman sense is tingling..roll.
>>497039
"Yes. And no. The current situation with Equestria is such that we're not sure if we can still trust couriers entering Canterlot to talk to our consolate. Messages could be intercepted and read. That's why I might need someone like you to carry those messages instead. Talk to my agent there and help if needed.
And by the ancients, don't get yourself caught by the Equestrians."
He corks open another bottle.
"What say you, Queren of the Pico clan?"

I'll hoof over the parchment.
"I was hoping you could give me a few pointers on Air element magic."
>>497047
I'll pause a moment.
"…Excuse me, Star, this will take just a moment."
Leave the tent briefly.
"I tried to dump it in the elemental plane of fire. Unfortunately, it was either the cube, or moving the volcano, so it's still with us. Mabel has it for now, since it started talking to me."

You try to reach the bushes quietly but when you near it each time the thing seems to have moved a bit further already.
>>497046
You can't quite place it.
Vilina continues "But I've seen how Amber looks up to you, and she's so sensitive, she might take it a lit-"
She stops and looks into the forest as well.
She sniffs the air and looks at you worried.
"Do you feel that?…there's something…in these woods."
>>497044
"Good lad. There's griffon called Grimholde in the Consolate. She's my agent. Watch out for her. She's much stronger than she looks."
He grins as he gives you another glass of mead.
>>497045
No answer. The door isn't locked though.
>>497051

"Besides the current plan, has there been any other news coming from the capital? I'm still in the dark regarding the vast majority of going-ons."

I'll nod.
"It told me that I was making a mistake after dropping it in some of the surface lava. In a way, it was right, since that didn't work."
>>497053
Warping forward to after the talk with Shortcake.
"Mabel asked me to cast this spell for her. It needs a wind element, and I was hoping you could help with it."

Bedrock puts in the ground and grasps the cork…
"Wait…I just thought of something. Soil you're like a shaman right?"
>>497056
>>497058
You run through the bushes screaming LALALA. Until you go through another bush and suddenly see Mabel…and a giant black iron pony with green glowing eyes carrying a scythe. It does not seem to have good intentions for Mabel.
>>497061
You push the bushes aside and stand face to face with a giant black iron pony. Its green eyes glow coldly and before you can respond it raises its scythe and hits you across the face.
You are helpless.
Vilina looks in shock "What the…"
>>497062
You did…in the back of your mind.
But it grows silent again.
You suddenly hear movement and shouting in the forest.
>>497059
"A few months ago, a more radical faction of one of the Houses tried unsuccessfully to dethrone our King. Ever since it's all pretty hush-hush. These are dark times, young one. There are things moving, forces at work, not just here in Hyperborea, in Equestria too. Griffons are sticking to themselves. Even in Houses and families, there is little trust."

'Were any of the Conspirators made public? They could be planning a second try, or other forms…"
"Ugh, I thought I had left this all behind in Equestria and I'd have a moment to relax near our lands, but it seems I've just run into the same problems. At least we've been able to keep things stable here. Much of Equestria is ruled by whatever gangs decide to run the place."

You arrive just in time to see Mabel getting attacked by a giant black iron pony with green glowing eyes, carrying a big scythe.
>>497075
You get up. Theforest is screaming at this thing…this abomination…this thing that should not exist. It is against everything nature stands for and advances slowly towards you.
Eyes set on your bag.
>>497071
You find in the bathroom, dripping wet.
"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"
Part of her coat is still dirty.
>>497072
You hit the iron pony masterfully but it does little to stop its advance.
>>497073
"I've heard some names, but I doubt the real ones have been caught. Just puppets, as always. As I said, these are strange times. Don't you feel it Pico? I feel it. I see it.
There's something going on…something big. Something out there is trying to set pony against pony, griffon against griffon…"
>>497074
"Have you ever cast an air element spell before?"
>>497077
"Well, could you try to talk to the seeds? Tell them that this stuff will make them grow and that they should grow big. If you're really a shaman, they'll understand you."

>>497080
"Uh…close but still far…far off. But if it's just one spell, I could try to charge one of your gems for one spell. It would act as a focus for that spell."
>>497082
The dirt doesn't seem to affect the Iron Pony.
>>497083
You roll to avoid its whirling scythe and stab it in a crevice of the outer shell.
It doesn't speak or react but the sparks tell you, you hit something.
>>497085
You try to bring it down but the creature is too strong. It pushes you back.
>>497086
"Indeed. Let me hand you something."
He hands you a seal.

…and tell your employer I'm extremely happy with this timely delivery."
>>497088
"N-no… It's just…this dirt, its clitting my coat and it hurts a bit to get it off."
She glares at you.
"Because you pushed me in that mud."
"How about you just give it a try? If it doesn't work, it won't hurt."
>>497080
"Uh…close but still far…far off. But if it's just one spell, I could try to charge one of your gems for one spell. It would act as a focus for that spell."
>>497082
The dirt doesn't seem to affect the Iron Pony.
>>497083
You roll to avoid its whirling scythe and stab it in a crevice of the outer shell.
It doesn't speak or react but the sparks tell you, you hit something.
>>497085
You try to bring it down but the creature is too strong. It pushes you back.
>>497086
"Indeed. Let me hand you something."
He hands you a seal.
"This seal will show the griffons of the consolate that you're an agent of mine.

"I never met him personally. He just works through middle men mostly. But another griffon traveler who worked for him told me about Zenith and I must say I'm not disappointed."
>>497094
It makes a babylike sound.
>>497096
Its scythe swings around hitting you across the chest.
>>497097
>>497099
You barely manage to evade its whirling scythe.
The forest screams in pain, it's deafening.
>>497096
"I could be able to help sure."
Spend an SP to learn Lightning?
>>497100
You try to sneak up when the Iron Pony turns around faster than you could expect and slashes you.
>>497101
She glares, but then looks down.
"Yeah…I guess I was acting pretty stupid too…"

The axe goes straight through the ethereal form.
And his scythe goes straight through you.
You're helpless.
>>497107
It makes a babylike sound again.
>>497109
It kicks you to the ground easily.
>>497110
"Eh….if you want to help…I'm not used to this…" She looks a bit uncertain.
"I used to have servants to clean my coat properly."
>>497112
You are helpless but get up like a boss.
The Iron Pony form becomes even more ethereal, flickers and disappears back into the Warp FOR NOW.

"T-thanks…"
>>497118
It peeps '1d3' times.
>>497119
Motherfucker, that thing hit you good, your spine feels like the tower of pisa right now.
>>497120
You're too shaken to make a proper potion.
Nature is calming down again but it will take time for the grass to become calm again.
Vilina walks over. "The fuck was that?"

She's a nice clean pone again, but you're not.
>>497123
He's up.
>>497124
You get up.
>>497125
"WHAT? Nonsense. Once he got a taste of this, he'll change his mind."
Bedrock uncorks the bottle and spills the contents all over the seeds.
The seeds make a strange sound. There's pain…and euphoria?
Bedrock quickly throws some dirt over it as the liquid hisses and bubbles and the seeds start expanding.
"Okay, stand back." says Bedrock with a grin."this is the fun part."
EVERYONE
The ground starts trembling furiously.

The ground shakes, tears and faster than can be believed an apple tree grows out of the ground, stretching bigger and higher than any apple tree around. Before a minute passes it already stretches a few hundred meters into the sky.
>>499047
>>499048
Both of you manage to not get swept up by the rapidly growing tree.
And are still on the ground.
>>499046
You are unlucky enough to be swept up by your clothes. You're hanging on a giant branch of the tree, 60 metres in the air.
>>499049
You keep looking at the ground and when the tree finally rapidly emerges you are immediately swept with it. You end up near the top of the tree in the branches.
The tree is now blossoming and full of giant flowers.

Star manages to stay down on the ground.
Indy is at the same height as Soil
Tullip got swept up nearly immediately and is nowhere to be seen.
Iris is on a branch near the middle of the tree wondering what the hell just happened.
Vilina got swept up as well but with some careful jumping managed to stay low enough to talk to you.
Half of the camp tents and equipment got swept up as well.
Bedrock is near the trunk of the tree down.

"I do! Pretty awesome isn't it."
>>499057
She's nowhere to be seen. You'd have to climb the tree to find her.
>>499058
"Ah mister Warren!" shouts Bedrock. "No worries, it's all under control."
Vilina manages to get down "So this is YOUR doing?" she bares her teeth at Bedrock.
Bedrock seems unintimidated "A beauty!"
He grins.

He waves it away.
"Unfortunate and unexpected side-effect of the product. But we'll get our tents back. Now if you'd kindly follow Ambers example to climb the tree. There's only so much time until the Giant Apples blossom and we can harvest them."
He grabs a rope.
>>499060
You ditch your armor and start climbing the tree. You meet Iris midway.
"A-amber? What happened?!?"
>>499061
No response…
He waves it away.

"Talk later, more climbing."
He jumps up the tree and climbs away with surprising speed.
He isn't visible anymore when you reach Iris.
>>499065
You're further up the tree.
Here you reach the blossoms, you're greeted by the intense sweet smell of the flowers.
>>499066
You see Soil and Indy, who's waving at you.

You come across your tent. Roll for its state.
>>499077
You go into the hole, it becomes darker.
Suddenly you start seeing green lights on the walls….
>>499078
He nods. "But…let's be careful…please?"
>>499081
You don't see her. You do see Amber entering part of the tree through a hole.
The blossoms are withering and small apples start to form.

The passage splits 2 ways, right or left.
The green lights conveniently help…whatever those things are. Those lights are even moving a bit…slowly.
You hear Warren calling out behind you.
>>499086
No response but you do see Amber.
The passage seems to be lit by small green, moving lights on the wall.
>>499085
It's in great condition!
There's a small hole in the tree bark close to you.
>>499083
The apple fits in your hoof as you pluck it, the others are growing big however, soon they're as big as you and still growing!
You find the top of the tree and have a marvelous view of the surrounding forest, there's the ruined church with the statue, there's Shardstone, there's Mt. Laurelia with Canterlot on it on the horizon. There's a small village not too far from here you didn't visit before.
And there's something else, something large seems to be moving through the forest towards the tree. You can't quite see what, but the trees are bending at its passage.

You take a good look and see something big, shiny and looks like a bear.
It looks like that Ursa Minor from Iris' books!
>>499088
>>499092
The green lights suddenly jump of the wall and start flying around, one approaches you and makes a chirping sound.
It's getting a bit bigger too, it's starting to look like a small flying ball…
>>499093
You go in and see all kinds of flying orbs in it.
Wait…that's no orb. Oh lawd, it's parasprites.

It's so cute!
It then starts to eat from the walls, and so do all its friends!
Eating quite a lot for such a tiny thing….
>>499096
You get down to the passage they're in a heartbeat. And you shout it to all of them.
>>499098
The things are more concerned with munching on the tree.
>>499097
They seem more concerned with eating the tree for now.
But a group of parasprites this big?
You might want to find Tullip quick before they eat the tree from under you.

Since Snacks hasn't rolled yet to see where he ended up in the tree…
Snacks awakes with a terrible headache.
The last thing you remember is the ground shaking, something bursting from the ground right against your head and then darkness.
You awake to find yourself high in the branches of a giant apple tree.
The apples of the tree are already bigger than you and still growing.
A bit down you see Mabel, Soil, Amber and Warren entering a little hole inside the tree…
Perhaps it might be good of you to follow them.
Rest
I'll type up the description of what is inside the heart of the tree in a sec.
Just letting Snacks get here for a sec.

An apple tree. A huge apple tree.
It sticks out far above the treeline.
———————————————————————
Everyone
After making your way through the tunnel with the fluorescent Parasprites you enter a large room within the tree. There is barely any light but there are massive amounts of fluorescent parasprites here as well, giving you a vague idea of the outline of the room, somewhat circular with a very high ceiling. The shouting of Tullip came from here somewhere but worryingly it seems to have stopped, there's not enough light currently to see this room clearly but you have the distinct impression you're standing in some kind of mud.

Indy lights a torch, the nearby Parasprites stop munching and flock for the torch.
In the mess of numbers of Parasprites flying all across all of you, Snacks notices Tullip hanging on the ceiling wrapped in some kind of jelly.
The whole room is coated in jelly actually, not mud.
>>501351
>>501346
Both of you hear an eerie voice echo through the chamber.

>>501376
She doesn't seem injured, just unconcious.
You can't identify the material, it seems like maple syrup, but much thicker and stickier.

He looks up to the high ceiling and back to you.
"Uh….how?"

>>501386
Snacks grabs Amber and throws her up to the ceiling.
Amber is now holding on to the unconcious hanging body of Tullip, if she falls down it will hurt a lot. Luckily the sticky stuff makes it pretty easy to hang on.

Both hooves are loose. You drop down in Soils hooves and Snacks paws.
>>501439
You manage to get Tullips pod loose. It drop down and gets captured by Soil and Snacks.
Suddenly the world goes dark.
2 jaws close around you.
>>501437
The fire doesn't stop the parasprite at all as he chomps Warren!
>>501441
Not yet.
Maybe you can lure it?

You stick your knife at the walls but the creatures skin is seems surprisingly flexible. Your knife merely stretches it without tearing.
[Saliva intensifies]
Wait…gravity turns, the dark digestive system of the parasprite is suddenly underneath you, you grasp on to one of the thin teeth as it mouth opens above you. This is your chance to climb out.
>>502943
Running against the parasprite is like running into a trampoline. You bounce back, hurting yourself as you bounce against the ground.
Indy scratches at the parasprite with little effect.
>>502945
You smash your hammer. Against the parasprites body with little effect.
>>502947
Seeing Soil and Ambers futile attempts at hurting the parasprite, you jump up and stab the parasprite right in the eye. It shocks up and opens its mouth in a noiseless scream.

You content yourself with slamming your shield against one of the teeth until it cracks off.
As Indy tries to climb to get to the eye on the parasprite shakes again and throws him off.
The tree starts shaking a bit as the parasprite takes flight again.
You hear the tree again "It…is….here….heh…"

>>502974
Your shot is not very effective.
Tullip is still encapsulated, but on the ground, unconcious, but out of danger for now.
>>502972
Amber changes tactics and hit it on the wings. It stops eating and bounces in pain. Shortcake quickly finishes it with a a magical squish big X signs appear in its eyes.
>>502976
"Hehe….That." The tree starts screaming as you suddenly hear a loud scrunch from the bark. As if something is breaking through.
As the parasprite is out of commission, you all hear a loud crunch and a set of giant white teeth burst through the bark, another moment later and the bark is torn away, the cold wind hits your faces as the inner part of the tree is revealed to the outside world.
And then the cold wind turns into a warm stinking breath as the transluscent head of an Ursa Major peaks in. It roars covering all of you partly in its shiny saliva.

And then the cold wind turns into a warm stinking breath as the transluscent head of an Ursa Major peaks in. It roars covering all of you partly in its shiny saliva.

The tree is too busy screaming and laughing.
But what luck, among the splintered tree parts next to you there's one perfect piece, as if it was waiting there for you. Surely this piece of wood is destined to be your shield of legend. Time to take it for a test drive?
>>502992
You get her awakened.
"Uh…what?" She yells as she sees the big bear.
>>502993
Indy inhales and the bear snorts from his nose.
The sheer power blows Indy back agains the wall, doing some damage in the process.
>>502994
You try to aim its snout but share the same fate as Indy and are blown against the wall.
>>502995
You quickly camouflage yourself in the same color as the tree.
>>502996
You share the same fate as Indy and get blown against the wall.
The Ursa Minor tries to reach its head into the hole more placing both its paws near the edge for stability.

You slam him right on the nose. But the bear rubs it off.
You and the shield obviously still need to get to know each other for maximum synergy.

And Sylt (5) and Indy's (8) roll.
As you all attack the Ursa's paws, you feel a powerful energy bubbling up inside you out of nowhere, making your attacks stronger.
Warrens motes of power fire larger and more true than ever.
Ambers hammer glows red with a fiery power.
Even as Shortcake misses her blow, she manages to jump away from retaliation unharmed.
Soil and Indy team up together to deliver an icy Slam that could kill an ox.
>>504528
As you mentally ready yourself for the next blow, you feel a connection across space and time. Perhaps sparked by the divine powers channeled by Amber, you feel yourself once again in the Elemental Plane in front of the Burning Throne, staring into the raw power visible within the eyes of the Firelord. At this moment of connection become one with Fire and you feel your actions guided by the Firelord himself.
Your mere presence carries the Aura of Pyrrus, granting your allies a significant power boost.
But it is when the bear rears its head back in that you strike.
Rialing the pegasi in speed you gallop towards the head, jumping out of the tree and hitting the celestial mass, overloading it red with elemental power.
As the beast roars, it destabilizes and falls down towards the ground.
You are so filled with power that the idea that you're falling with it towards the ground barely bothers you. But then you feel a tug on your back. 2 claws gently grasping your flesh. You turn around to see a familiar Phoenix carrying you, slowing down your fall enough and quickly trying to land you out of reach of the Ursa.
The Ursa has destabilized. As it hits the ground it explodes into a torrent of magical energy. Everyone (except Mabel, for she's carried out by the Phoenix) must roll a dodge to hide away from the direct blast

The blue glow smashes against your shield but you're safely protected from the energetic currents.
When it's over, half of the tree is covered in blue crystals and there's a light blue hue covering your shield, ocassianally sparkling.

So you have.
You better fly over to check what happened to your friends who are in that giant hole in that giant tree….
>>504564
You got fully hit. As you come to you find yourself laying in a blue dust. And you feel different, as you check yourself you realize you have gained pegasi wings!
>>504553
The phoenix screeches and flies you back to the tree.
From here you can see a large circle around the now dead bear has been covered in the sparkling blue dust, all trees have discolored and become an eerie blue. The grass has crystalized.
You're near the others again.
>>504550
You protect yourself with the bag and manage to capture a lot of stardust.

Both Amber and Snacks get down no problem.
Mabel misses a spot and is lucky Inferni bails her out again and softly flies her down instead of letting her fall to her doom.
Soils idea to just slide down on his shield works surprisingly well until he shield gets stuck in a brach and it takes 15 minutes to get it out.
You all make it down the base of the tree where there's a giant open clearing covered in blue dust and charred tree trunks where the Ursa exploded. You find Vilina, Star and Iris there.
Vilina is laying meekly and shaken underneath a blanket while Iris sits by her.
Star runs up "Oh thank the Saviour all of you are okay!"
She gives Snacks a hug.

"I'm still not following. You ponies do that all the time. How many animals have you killed and used the spoils off?"
>>506765
"Because I thought it would be a great way to swat to flies in one stroke."
The feeling is strange but you recognize it as a form of holy power flowing through you. Perhaps you should discuss this with a true paladin sometime. But right know all you know is that it is telling you that the person you're looking at is evil.

"Fine then, if you guys want to have it this way."
Bedrocks body suddenly shakes and his one back leg turns into a zebra hoof, the other into a griffon leg.
"I have many names you know, Bedrock, Nightfeather and a bunch of others. But most of all, I like the titles, the Trader of Terror,…."
His body stretched and becomes more snakelike
"The Merchant of Madness…"
His left front leg turns into a diamond dog paw.
"The Wholesaler of Woe, my favorite…."
His head turns into a griffons with the same bird.

And all the delicious chaos that erupts when they try to contain that power."
He giggles.
"It's hilarious really. And I must say I loved all of you. It has been some time since I've been with such an eager bunch of ponies ready to get the job done and not ask questions."

He snaps his finger and the ground underneath you is sticky gum.

"I rather doubt that, Mabel dear."
He walks over to his tent and starts folding it up until it becomes small enough, and then hangs it on a stick like a knapsack.

>>506801
He snaps his finger and the ground underneath you is sticky gum.
>>506802
He grins.
"I rather doubt that, Mabel dear."
He walks over to his tent and starts folding it up until it becomes small enough, and then hangs it on a stick like a knapsack.
>>506805
You get out like a boss.
He laughs.
"What a feisty pony. If you ever meet Cadance, tell her I had a wonderful time that night, she'll know what I mean…"
>>506808
doublecrit, the only thing that can scratch him as you are now.
You slam him right in the butt.
He jumps up and look angrily at you.
"Oh naughty, I guess I'll just have to teach you a lesson."
He snaps his fingers and nothing visibly happens to you.
Then he stretches himself, takes a bunch of stardust and sniffs it up.
"Well it was fun, but I guess I'll leave you darlings to your own devices now.
See you around."
He snaps his paw and he, the stardust he collected and his tent vanish with a flash.
All the altered stuff by Anarchy in this scene disappears.

"He did have me run one delivery, yes. It was through the Labyrinth of the Laughing One, and it was to some zebra out in the middle of nowhere. A rather large crystal that I was told could restore the glow to a crystal pony who had lost theirs. As there was a crystal pony at the drop-off, I had assumed it was for him. After dropping that off, I came back through the labyrinth and caught up with you all in Tall Tale."

After a few seconds Iris replies. "The word "draconequus" is composed of the High Equestrian "draco" and "equus", meaning "dragon-horse". Droconequi are immensily powerful tricksters who are composed of various body-parts of various beasts. They are universally observed as being servants of Discord, the most powerful draconequus ever encountered, defeated by Princess Celestia and Princess Luna."
>>506968
Star shouts "Bedrock was a draconequus!"

>>506974
I'll nod.
"Now what, I wonder, did he want with our group? If he's as powerful as you say, he could have taken out the bear, or anything else he fancied, without us."
Thinking a little, I'll continue.
"Though, perhaps doing so would make too much noise. Traveling in the shadow of successful monster hunters would mask his presence very effectively…"
I'll nod.

>>506978
I'll nod.
"I didn't get any names, but the Crystal pony seemed rather… emotionally dead."
>>506979
"So now we've got an undead dragon and a draconequis to worry about. Grand."
>>506980
"How could we? I mean, he played the role of eccentric merchant fairly well. Though I suppose having a map of the Labyrinth should have tipped us off…"
I'll nod.

>>506990
>>506989
I'll shrug.
"We'll have to get the real story out of him eventually. Until then, we should focus on moving on to Ponyville. That's where we were going, and we've got to move on to Canterlot as well, to warn them of this new Draconequis."
>>506993
"Where did you pick up that phoenix anyway? I noticed he practically blazed into existence when the bear exploded."
>>506989
I'll shrug.

I look at Star
"If there was no Bedrock pony then for what purpose does that Draconicoil taken up the Bedrock pony disguise? To fool us?!"
I gasp and began rummaging my bag.
Is the runed crystal inside it?
>>506995
"Snack was gone scouting when they told that Bedrock turned to Draconicoil."
>>506996
>>506997

"Bedrock was actually some being of horrible power that is causing trouble in addition to the giant horrible dragon that's gathering power off in the distance. He's also responsible for that giant tree."
>>507002
"If they're still there."
I'll think a moment.
"Ah, yes. Here, Amber."
I'll hoof her the jar of Stardust.
"You can present this to the paladins when you arrive."

>>507001
There is. And a black cube you've never seen before.
>>507003
You have wings.
Amber is so shiny she gives light.
You don't know the one of Vilina yet, as she keeps herself covered in a blanket.
You might have heard Iris has a deep manly voice now.
You also recognize the phoenix Mabel now carries.
>>506999
"WOW" Star looks amazed.

Star looks at it and shrieks.
"I thought Warren had that thing."
>>507019
Vilina opens her mouth.
"WARREN" shouts Star.
she points towards the black cube Snacks has in his paws.
>>507016
It's there where you left it.
>>507015
The book has long verses about the Discord the great Trickster, and him being the reason ponies founded the Empire.
To cut is short, the book indicates only the power of Harmony can counter a draconequus, wether it flows from the Crystal Heart or the Elements of Harmony or the Tree of Harmony.

I sighed.
"Snack is worried that Star was hurt, its good she is not." I pat her head.
"Also good job helping the two of them specially Iris pony." I raise a thumbs up.
>>507075
"err.. alright." Take good care of black cube so it dont go in my bag again.
"Or is it Mabel pony who dropped it?" I give her a sly look.

He stretches.
"Bit sleepy…long day. Tree. Bear. Draconut."
>>507081
She tries to stand up while covering herself.
You quickly set up the remains of your tent a bit away and lead her inside.
>>507086
It's nothing, forget about it.
Wait, did you think that or did you hear that?
>>507084
Of course.
>>507083
"It was the least I can do. I'm glad that nasty draconequus didn't hurt us or you…"
He stretches.

Shortcake is here too and Vilina grabs her blanket a bit tighter…
"I'm…I got hit by that explosion OKAY?!?"
>>507108
You a coward?
You've always been a coward.
That's why you ran away from home, instead of facing up to your family.
Look how pathetic you are.
>>507110
Sorry I'm tired and I'm missing posts, I should sleep soon.
"Crazy forest…zzzzzz."
Tullip is still fuming and sitting near her tent.
>>507111
"NOT EVERYPONY GOT SHINY WINGS OKAY!!"
>>507114
You don't let this thing control you!

Remembering the armored pony I began to stiffen up a bit and get serious.
"Snack see's…. perhaps it is an artifact used… for something."
"Hmmm…. " I sit down and think.
"Draconocoil Bedrock, Undead large dragon, Black cube and that armored pony…. what has it all in connection."
"Well besides from them being bad news and all." I scratch my head.
