Sky, fluttered off a little way unsure what to think, it was impressive, and beautiful, she really didn't know what to say.
"This one flower is the only one that will grow where you plant it, but it does not need to be planted in order to survive for that is one of the great gifts of the Eldar." says Rashall smiling
Clef looked at Rashall with a kind a jealous look but he went back to his original face "whao this place is awsome," he said. He looked around the garden keeping on of his eyes on Dusk Lilly. He stopped at a pond it was so clean he could see his reflection he sits looking at the whole garden "man Rashall has everything a pony would want in this garden," he thought.
Dusk Lily looked at Rashall quizzically. "So, it will never die?" As she spoke, she caught a glimpse of Clef from the corner of her eye. He was checking out the pond; she decided that she would have to explore this place more after her conversation with Rashall ends.
He turns his head to see Dusk Lilly still talking to Rashall he started to mumble and went further to the garden to where all the animals was staying and got out his violin and started to play hoping that Dusk Lilly would come. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLR8...UCGXQYbcTJ33bR66x74mTpDYDdqYYxa49C2Ek_CP2EXLE After he played that music he went face first on the grass floor hooves throbbing and breathed heavily.
Samuel had stayed near to the other ponies but had kept quite. Something just felt a little off to him. He had never seen something like what they had witnessed just a few moments ago and then for everyone to split off away from one another. Samuel was concerned for his friends and their safety. The corners of the walls had spiderwebs with dust caught in them and everything seemed to be tossed out of it's place. His gut told him to not let his guard down. Samuel flapped his wings and got himself off of the ground to get a better angle. He hoovered over to sky not saying a word, but keeping his eyes flicking back and forth between the doors he saw, and feeling much safer the more of them that were within eye site.
"You sense it to don't you Samuel? A stain that has been left here for years, eleven long years. You see I have been hunted very far and wide, for I am a Eldar High Lord and I fear one of the last." says Rashall.
Clef lifted his face from the grass and heard what Rashall said "wait what?," he said in a confused tone, "so your the last of the Eldar something something,". He looks back at Dusk Lilly but back to Rashall "so now we have to protect you now," he said, "but dont worry Rashall all of us will have your back,".
"What exactly dose that mean?" Sky said, flicking her eyes back and forth between Samuel and Rashall, she kept her wings folded but ready to flap open and fly away at any moment.
"In essence a High Lord of the Eldar would be equal to a King or some other high authority. Which means the I do not need to bow when in the presence of your princesses, it also means that I am a very valuable target for lets say opposing nations or ancient enemies." says Rashall
Samuel looked down at the floor around them shapes of vases, lamps and statues were covered by dust. His body tensed as he thought of the ponies that could do this. Samuel landed next to Sky and he kicked one of the vases to reveal it was golden and adorn with jewels. Samuel scoffed, "Well whatever pony did all this was not looking for money." His eyes darted to Rashall, "They must have been looking for something or rather some pony." Samuel took a few steps back his gut now even more uneasy of this place. "No one has been here in a log while. I'm sure we are safe, unless," he paused for a moment, "That they end up sensing you some how. After the terror of Nightmare Moon and Discord, I'd imagine something like that isn't improbable with a strong enough unicorn pony." Samuel was worried he was scaring the other ponies but they all needed to know what to expect.
"Practically impossible, as you say moments ago the runes I was born with protect me from any such thin. I can understand if you all do not wish to help me for this is a dangerous thing, but there is a task that I need to do either alone or with help." says Rashall
Sky sighed, she had no idea what she had gotten herself into and had half a mind to leave, but she decided to stick it out for now, "What is is it exactly that you have to do that's so dangerous? 'Cause I really don't know what's going on."
Samuel watched the other ponies as Rashall spoke. He wasn't going to abandon someone who had been so pleasant to him, but he was worried the other ponies resolve was not like his. "Friends he is asking for our help isn't that enough?" Samuel asked in a calm tone. "Each of us have something that makes us special and maybe those talents can help us during the journey Rashall must make." Samuel nudged Sky and smiled, "Having another pegasus would be nice, and the earth skills from you clef will help if any trouble arose," Samuel smiled and looked toward the last two ponies, "Dusk Lily your knowledge of flowers will surely help as we go deeper into the dark forest and Johnn your traps and stalking skills will undoubtly come to use should anyone come after us." Samuel took a spot next to Rashall, "He needs help and that's what ponies do for their friends. What do you say?" Samuel looked at Rashall and smiled then watched to see if the ponies would join the two or not.
Clef smiled at Samuel about the speech he just spoke he turns Rashall and starts to walk over to Rashall "im with Samuel friends should help!" he said. He looked at Dusk Lilly hoping that she would come also "come on we should help Rashall he is the last of the Eldar king or something," he said. He turns to Samuel "dont worry i had Rashall's back from the start," he smiled.
"I'll come along," Sky sighed, then trying to sound tougher then she was continued "But I wouldn't say we're friends, I pretty much stalked all of you up till this point, and I'm always up for an adventure."
Dusk Lily, after a moment's hesitation, stood with the other ponies. "I-I'm here for you, Rashall. And Samuel..." she said, turning to face the pegasus, "I don't just have a knowledge of flowers. I can...enhance their growth patterns, if you will."
"Thank you all it means a lot to me, now if you notice there is a piece of my armor that is missing." says Rashall dropping his cloak for what seems like the first time in years. You all notice an oval shape in the center of the chest armor, the rest of it is intact and is the color of the night sky when no stars can be seen. There is also a light that seems to shine from within the armor which seems odd.
