Harbingers of Chaos

"So, tell me..." The reflection says, passing through the mirror, shape changing to Discord's at the point of contact, going down her body as she slowly crawls out

"...Tell me..." Discord says, grinning down at her "...Do your legs whistle when you fly?"

Discord's grin grows a little, as he looks down on Arach, who was currently staring up at him in a mix of horror, fear and wonder

"Oh, i'm sorry for frightening you, chum..." He says with no hint of sympathy, teleporting with a flash behind the terrified Arach, body wrapping her back as he looks into her eyes close up, causing her to clench her teeth and move her head a little bit away from him.

"I'm merely here for a laugh... And a little gift." He says, a book phasing into existence on a nearby desk, as he glances over to it.

"A full guide on magic, written by youuurs truly" He says, smiling as two miniature fireworks burst from his back and explode behind his head

Arach just stares back at him, hardly believing her eyes, mouth gaping, fear gripping her over the idea of being a Changeling, and a seemingly non-reformed Discord being loose in the world.

"Speechless at how pleased you are? Oh, you flatter me." He says, turning into a paper image of himself as he says this, straightening out and blowing off with a non-existent wind, beginning to burn up as well "Ta-ta for now, and enjoy your feast." He says, as Arach gets to her hooves and runs towards him as well as she can at this point.

"W-Wait!" She begs after him "Why have you done this!?" She calls, hoping he'd hear, as the paper fully burns up and his voice echoes throughout the room

"Hahaha... Your hive will be fun to watch..." He says in an echo, voice fading out.

Arach watches the spot Discord was in a moment ago, speechless, chest filling with fear and horror at what that implied, pausing before turning to the recently formed book slowly, lifting it up with some effort and bringing it to her bed.

The book was brown, with the outer edges almost looking like a wooden frame, the title being proudly displayed in the center of the frame

Magic

The full Walkthrough.

Also containing pie.

Arach stares at the title for a few seconds, raising an eyebrow at the final line, but proceeding on anyway, turning the page.

"The font's so tiny..." She complains, having to move her face inches from the book to read the first words, which appeared to be comprised of postage stamps and parts of old newspapers, looking like they had been dragged right out of a horror film

"Read aloud: Whyyy...?" She repeats as the page instructs, instantly being hit in the face by a pie, some force behind it as well, causing her to close her eyes and bare her teeth in frustration, pushing it from her face before shuddering at an attempted lick at her lip

"Disgusting..." She curses, delicately picking up the pie and managing to place it on what was once a comfortably high desk, before returning to her book and glaring at the page "...Nice trap." She says with frustration, turning the page to some nicely sized text, growling in rage before suddenly stopping, eyes widening as she sees the title of the page

Magical Feeding

Advanced techniques and efficiency for consuming emotions quickly.

As much as she hated it, she felt desire start to bud up, before a feverous need to learn all she could from that collection of pages. She smirks as she feels some emotions start to get drawn into her from the air.

"Ahhh, my old emotions... Delicious, but... Stale..." She comments "And I don't produce any as a Changeling..." She trails off, before grinning "...After this, a little family get-together sounds nice" She says, chuckling to herself "They'll never know what hit.. them..."

She would pale if her body was not covered in Chitin, looking down at her hoof with some fear. "He's taking my mind as well?" She thinks, horror filling her at that. She'd become as bad as Chrysalis, maybe worse. She would become humanity's scourge, the delicious emotions would pulse through her...

And she'd love every second of it.
