//-------------------------------------------------------// elemental journey -by soul writer- //-------------------------------------------------------// //-------------------------------------------------------// arrival by fire //-------------------------------------------------------// arrival by fire *some dialogue will be in French but most of them will be unimportant to the story* I was putting down on paper some of the creatures and characters that I had created earlier in my mind when it happened. I heard an explosion on the floor under and a ball of fire engulfed everything. Let me tell you a little about myself while I was floating in the void. I am a 19 years old student in programming and I have a tendency to think about adventure and such when I am bored. I wanted something to happen in my life that would be different: discovering magic, getting transformed into something or someone else, living eternally (different from immortality in which you cannot die) or getting transported into another universe. I also love to learn from biology to nanotechnologies and astronomy, I read everything about everything. I was also making a bestiary made of creatures I created and my theories on magic. So going back to the matter at hand, I was aimlessly floating through the void waiting for something to happen when there was a flash of light. A voice also spoke to me:” You have been given another chance. However, you will have to choose a new body and you will be sent to another world.” I thought about my last creation, the elemental watcher. The light became blinding and I felt myself lose consciousness again. I woke up in murky water: “Great, I’m in a swamp.” I thought. I checked to see if I was alright. I had no injury but I was now taller, my hair had turned silver, fur covered all my body except my arms which were covered in dragon scales and I had wings. My leg seemed to be a mix between a cat and humans leg and I had the face of a wolf. I also had a Vaporeon (https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT05wkM2O2lO8SHfsv9iXolbeinCgemz94mLV_iXCFWViXoGyy8) tail It seemed to me that I became an elemental watcher, a creature I made myself. To be sure I tested if I had their power. Elementals watchers are the embodiment of every element and have moderate control over them. I tried to move the water and a water droplet rose into the air. I had fun with my powers for a while until I decided that it would be best if I started to see if there was anyone around. I walked around in hope of leaving the swamp when a hydra ambushed me. I blocked two head with my arms but the third one bit my leg. I lit the fur that covered my leg on fire which burned the jaw of the hydra and freed me at the cost of some burning fur. I launched some hot rock pellet at my foe but it only angered him further. Finally, I froze water on my arm to make a blade and cut the three head, not forgetting to cauterize the neck to prevent more heads from growing. Treading more carefully after this accident I finally stepped out of the swamp into a forest. I searched for some food because I was starting to become hungry and I found some berry and roots which I ate in an instant. It was becoming dark and I decided to set up camp. I made a bed with some leaves and I use my control over fire to light a campfire. The moment I laid on my bed I fell asleep. The morning after, I woke up and prepared to leave by destroying my bed and campfire. To be honest, while I was a bit freaked out by the events, I was mostly happy because I always wanted for something like that to happen to me. But then I thought about what the voice said and I realized three things: I was in another dimension I couldn’t go back I was considered dead back on Earth. After those fact set in I cried a bit at the thought of my family and how I would miss them. After this little episode, I walked for an hour before noticing that the landscape was becoming drier. I continued for a bit before reaching a town by the name of Dodge Junction. The town resembled those depicted in far west movies and I quickly found a train station. The train was full of talking colorful small horses with tattoo on their flank. I thought about a show that I heard about back on earth called My Little Ponies: Friendship is Magic. So I knew where I was and I was lucky because I had made some research about the world of MLP a week before I “died” and got transported to this world. I thought about my next steps and after much thought decided that it would be best to collect information, find a normal job and meet princess Celestia to prevent any misunderstanding. I found a job at a cherry farm where my power over water were very useful for watering the trees and I discovered that I was at least a thousand and a half years earlier than the start of the show. Other information that I collected included that the currency was bits, that Luna wasn’t imprisoned yet and that Canterlot was already the capital of Equestria even though the castle of the twin sister was still in use. After a month of working at the farm I stopped getting scared glances from the townspeople. After a few more months, I had enough bits to take the train and still have enough left so that I wouldn’t starve. I headed to the train station and bought my ticket in first class because I could and it would be funny to see the face of the nobles that are assured to be in first class. Thanking the station clerk, I waited for my train to arrive and watched passerby to pass the time. The train arrived and I proceeded to embark and head to my cabin. Well train wasn't really the right word because it was pulled by at least a dozen earth pony. After I entered my cabin, I heard some shouting behind my door and went to see what the fuss was about. A white male unicorn was shouting at an employee: “What do you mean my cabin is occupied? I am a noble! This is preposterous!” Of course I intervened because my instinct told me that the cabin he was talking about was most likely mine. “Well what would the problem be my good sir?” I asked with a slightly exaggerated British accent. He prepared to reply with what was probably a rant about the fact that he was a noble and such but whatever he had to say was replaced by a shriek of terror and he ran away. I told the employee to tell me if he did any more problems and I headed back to my cabin. After a rather uneventful trip beside the noble accident, I finally saw the light of Canterlot in the distance. //-------------------------------------------------------// meeting a princess //-------------------------------------------------------// meeting a princess I disembarked at the Canterlot station and I got quite a few weird looks from ponies around, mostly from the nobles though. I was hungry so I decided to stop to eat somewhere after getting an apointement with a princess. I went to the castle and talked to the secretary for an apointement. "Oh Celestia! what are you! the secretary exclaimed Well my name is Elemental Eye and I am an elemental watcher. I would like to schedule an apointement with one of the princesses. Motives and times? I am here to introduce myself and prevent any future misunderstanding with the princesses. Any time would be fine though. You can meet princess Luna at 10 p.m. I'll be there." With that done I searched a place to eat and I found a place called Haystack. I took a veggie burger with hay fries and quite enjoyed it to be honest even though I missed meat. I found an hotel that was cheap but had nice room and breakfast. I walked around a bit and exploring the city. I also bought some supply including a bag, a catteen and some dried fruits for snacks. I then made a mental note to have clothes made by someone when I had enough money. After a bit more fooling around and doing little pranks on nobles with my power (showering a noble trying to flirt with someone is hilarious by the way) it was time to meet princess Luna. Oh boy that was going to be interesting. I arrived at the castle 10 min early to be polite and waited near the court room for my audience. It turn out that princesses have a good sense of time, because at 10 p.m. exactly I was called inside. Saying that the court room was impressive was like saying the sun was hot. It was clearly on the theme of night with princess Luna sitting on the throne. I bowed down to princess Luna while introducing myself: " My name is Elemental Eye and I am most likely the only representative of my race, the elemental watcher. I came to introduce myself to you and your sister and prevent any inccident that may occur from a misunderstanding. It his most preventive of thou to come forth and introduce thouself before any problem arrise. To be completly honest it is not my only motive. I also came to ask you for help. and what may that request be? The race that i curently am is in fact a creation of my mind. I used to be something called 'human' before I seemingly died and got sent to this wordl as my creation. My request is to know if you or someone can send me home or if not I would apreciate if I could get a job at the castle. We sadly know of no way to return you home. I could provide thou with a place at the castle but we need to know more of thou race before. Alright, as I said before, I am an elemental watcher. Elemental watcher are the judge of the elementals, possesing control of the four elements, the ability to combine them and most importantly like all elemental I have eternal life. I am not very powerful in raw magical power but the magic that I have is extremely refined and provide me with near limitless possibility of combinason. If I was powerful enough, I could compress matter to the point of creating a gravity well or a mini black hole. I can also use my control over fire to generate all kind of energy ranging from mecanical to nuclear energy. I cannot however generate matter out of nothing. I can either transform another energy present in the enviromnent around me or I can use up my magic reserve transforming it into the energy I want. Also, my affinity with earth give me increased strengh meaning I can lift up to 3 time my weight.do you have any more question? What of the human as thou called them? -Well, starting with humans in general, we are a sentient specie wich evolved from apes and thus look alot like hairless tall apes. We research advancement through science because our world is devoid of magic. We explored space, went to the moon and invented weapon so powerful that it became banned from use in wars. I personnally come from Quebec wich is situated in Canada. I pride myself in the fact that we are considered peaceful by other country. As for myself as a person, I was a human male which had almost finished his college  and I was living alone. I had and still have a passion for learning anything new which made the other kid isolate me when I was younger. I never gave up and I finally made some friend. I may be useful to you with my knowledge of my world and his technology, notably chemistry. Finally, if I could I would like a job that would allow me to read in my free time and to learn about this world. We see. We could give thou a post at the royal librairy. It would allow thou to read and you would have a salary. What do thou say? I'd say thank you and ask when do I start? we will have to talk to our sister about it and we would like thou to be present if she has any more question for thou. Can thou come tomorrow at noon? I will be there. With this, I took my leave and decided to visit the public library to see if I could borrow books and take them to the hotel. I still got the starefest that I was expecting when I arrived at the library and I went to the counter. I learned, after calming the mare which was behind the counter, that I could take any book I wanted as long as I brought them back withing a week. I borrow around 10 sizable books and brought them back with me to start reading. Even though I was slow at first, because of the strange writing they used, I quickly went back to my usual thousand word per minute. Needless to say that I am a fast reader.  After some reading, I noticed that it was getting late and I went to sleep. //-------------------------------------------------------// bestiary and theories of Elemental Eye T.1 //-------------------------------------------------------// bestiary and theories of Elemental Eye T.1 *Those chapter are going to be me explaining the creatures I made and clearing up question about how their powers work. Also thye are made use what Elemental know up to this point so don't be surprised if some of these info are proven wrong or added to.* magic Elemental magic: Elemental magic is governed by the 4 elements with each representing a fundamental state of matter and piece of  the sentient being: Earth: Earth represent the solid state and the body. Earth elementals are stronger than normal and are able to lift up to 10 time their weight. At its most powerful form, It can be used to created gravitational field by compressing solid matter. Water: water represent the liquid state and the mind,also known as creativity. Water elementals are very creative and thus most use their power in a form of fight based art. Also, water being a very efficient cooling method, they have a small control over frost even though they are beaten in this field by fire elementals. At its most powerfull, water can be used to control complex compound like poisons or solvents(acid) this effectively provide a poison immunity relative to the power of the elemental. Air: air represent the gazeous state and the soul, also known as open mindness and kindness. Air elementals are easy going and most are capable of flight. They are nimble and most chose to relly on ninja and assasin like combat tactic. At its most powerful, air can be use to create spontaneous explosion and windblast by compressing different gaz and can shield from provectile as well as create tornado. Fire: Perhaps the most attack based element, fire is reprensentative of plasma, which traduct by the control of energy level, and will. because plasma is so hard to find elsewhere than space, most fire elementals are known for their manipulation of energy and the ability to control fire, which is a plasma. At its most powerful, Fire can create a mini sun and stop a nuclear explosion from happening midway. Unlike what most think, there is no such thing as an 'Ice elemental' they are simply fire elemental who've chosen to focus on taking in energy instead of releasing it. Creatures Elemental watcher: Also called neutrality elemental, they are the judge and gardian of the elementals. They have control over each elemental and while they are not as powerful in a single element as for exemple a fire elemental they are master of the art of combining different element to form new one. Be very careful when encountering one for while they are calm and objectionnal normaly, they do not accept disrespect toward their fellow elementals. powerscale celestia: 80 Luna: 75 simple elemental: 10 Elemental watcher: 20 pony: 5 Guard: 15 Timberwolf: 2 the scale work by twofold, meaning that someone with a rank of 3 is 2 time stronger than one with a rank of 2.However this scale is for raw power(magical or physical) and does not account for tactic or creativity which is how elemental magic is used. It still means however that the princess are very powerful. For a way to scale thing 0 is a bunny  and 100 is the equivalent of an all powerful god. Also, except for specified character, the scale state the general strenght of the specie and assume that they all went through a normal life. //-------------------------------------------------------// Meeting Bluedouche senior //-------------------------------------------------------// Meeting Bluedouche senior I woke up at 10 A.M. and after I saw that I had two hour before my meeting with Celestia and Luna I decided to prepare some argument and information about myself and the world. I took the chance to familliarise myself with the equestrian writing by taking all my notes with it. After an hour of thinking and writing I decided to take an half hour walk before heading to the castle. As I was heading toward the market I saw an unicorn that I recognized as the one who had harrassed the employe on the train. Now that I though about it, he looked quite similar to that character who had the reputation to be a annoying bastard. What was his name again? Ah yes! Blueblood! Must be an ancester of his. This fact made it very tempting to laugh at his expence a bit. So I decided to give him a scare again by greeting him by surprise again. However, this time he didn't run while screaming like a girl, most likely because he had an audience. He turned arround and said like he was a brave knight:" I shall saly you foul beast your vile trick may have taken me by surprise last time but this time I will get rid of your chaotic presence." I found funny most of the speech but the last words offended me as elemental watcher are pretty much the embodiment of balance and harmony. So I decided to mess with him a bit. "You arrogant fool! Do you even think before you insult someone? I am one of the most powerful being in this city. I am only beaten by some including the princesses and Discord! You dare to say that my presence is chaos while I am the embodiment of the balance between the element! Now apologize before I decide to take offence and ask for retribution!" While saying this I caused a mini tremor at his feet while absorbing the light around me for a better effect. However, Blueblood senior seemed to be either too arrogant or stupid to see the smart way out of this. He drew his shiny sword and attacked me. Sadly for him though, I wasn't bluffing when I said I was one of the most powerful being in the city. Even though it was only because it was only populated by sobbish ponies and peace-loving guards. I used the stone beneath him to trap him in a cage and used a bit of gaz which I was lucky to find near to knock him out. Still with Blueblood senior in the cage, I went to the castle with an idea to punish him. I caused quite a commotion when I entered the castle with a pony in cage. The guard tried to arrest me and I asked them if one of the princess was able to see me dor I had a problem to solve with the pony in cage. They told me to wait and went to see if Celestia was able to see me. They quickly came back and told me that Celestia was waiting for me in the throne room. I entered and greeted the princess:" Sorry to indispose you at such short notice but I had an emergency Does it involve our nephew over in the cage? -Indeed it does. I was taking a morning walk before my meeting with you and your sister when I saw this pony which I recognized as one I had meet on the train for here. But, as I went to greet him, he greatly insulted me by calling me a creature of chaos even though I am one of balance and he then proceded to attack me without any reason other than me being different. Also, I don't know if your sister told you but I am technically an ambassador of a whole other dimension and I came here in hope of finding peace and acceptance." As I went on with the list of offense, Blueblood senior's eyes opened wider and wider in fear of the consequence and of my vengeance. After a little pause to process everything I told her, Celestia spoke to me:" If it is as you say, this is a grave offense and you are legaly authorized to ask for some sort of compensation At first I thought about making him pay the blood price. But after a little thinking, I realized that this pony's life wasn't the thing he valued the most or else he would have backed down and this accident wouldn't have happened. So instead I think that asking for monetary compensation would be more of a lesson for him. For the grave insult I would ask 500 bits and for the attack on myself I would ask 2000 bits. I think that its a fair price to pay in exchange of me not holding a grudge against his family for the next thousand years or so. It is indeed a fair price but I dont see why you think that 2500 is equal to the blood price you mentionned earlier. -Well, the first reason is the fact that I need money to get a house near and maybe some tools to experiment to see if matter react the same in your world and mine. The second reason is that its more the humiliation from the act of giving money to someone that you just tried to kill that is compensation for it. -Very well then, Rich Blueblood, we hereby condemm thee to pay a fine of 2500 bits to the elemental watcher going by the name of Elemental Eye. Should thee fail to pay this fine, Elemental will be allowed to take the equivalent in goods and sell them to cover the price afformentioned." At the end of Celestia's speech, Rich was looking like he wanted to kill me and crie and the same time. However, I knew that he wouldn't dare disobey the princesses and attack me again. After he left, Celestia told me to stay and told me:" Well me and Luna are already awake and you are there so let's begin with the discussion regarding your situation here." //-------------------------------------------------------// Meeting of the Eternals //-------------------------------------------------------// Meeting of the Eternals I followed Celestia and entered what must have been a meeting room. The walls were stone but they were covered in paintings. The floor was made of rough wood planks that were polished and evened out. In the center sat a gigantic dark wooden table which was surounded by cushions of all size and shape. The room gave of a sense of peace and unity which put me at ease. After everybody sat down, the princesses began to ask question. We talked about almost everything ranging from physic to politic even though I was careful to not reveal any technological clues that they could use. After four hours of talking and discussing, Luna told me me:" We sense that thou didn't lie to us but thou didn't tell the whole truth either. It is a fact that I didn't tell you everything on purpose. There is a good reason however, my world has technology greatly beyond your's for a lack of magic and I do not want you to repeat the same error as my race did." I shuddered when I remembered the picture from the aftermath of a nuclear attack I saw." There is also the fact that I have to simplify alot most of the thing im talking about because chance are that only a scientist from your world could even hope to understand the more advenced stuff I know. Well this seem a bit arroguent from thou part. Do you know about the four fundamental force of physic? Not really... Then you wouldn't understand most of the stuff I haven't told you yet and a big part of the rest is either too personnal for now or is just theories on my dimension." After this clarification on my intent, we discussed for another hour and finally ran out of thing to discuss."Before we part way, I would like to make you hear a song that demonstrate the view some of us have of our world.
