The echo of clopping hooves on white marble floor, alongside the clattering of heavy gold armor were the only sounds that followed your descent to the lower levels of the castle of canterlot. Each step you took down the winding stone stars your body dragged and shifted, a side effect of the armor that wrapped around your body which made it difficult to keep proper balance. Reaching the bottom of the stairs, you find yourself occupying the lower quarters of the great hall. The walls were endless in height and length. Stained glass neatly filled the openings where rays of sunlight would occasionally show. The windows depicted pictures of Equestria’s history and encounters through different colored glass or painted panels. Most of which showed battles of long ago wars and recent victories won by 6 mares who bared the elements of harmony.

As you walking down the long corridor, you keep your guard up and your muscles do not rest. As a royal guard and servant to Celestia, you are sworn to protect her and the castle, with your life. Reaching the end of the long hallway, you enter what appears to be the main dining area. Non stained windows covered most of the wall, revealing the outside of the royal gardens. Looking out of the overly large windows you notice the early morning sun rising from behind the Crystal Mountains. It was a wonderful display from Celestia herself. The sun’s warm orange light suddenly drowns your body and armor In a yellow glow. You close your eyes to cherish the sun's comfort.

“Private first class!” The holler of highly skilled vocalist announced from across the room. His voice was deep and abnormally loud.

Your turn your head to face the higher ranking officer with a blank expression. The male was cased in gold armor, iron leggings wrapped around his hooves, and medals of different deeds decorated his left shoulder.

“Report to Captain Shining Armor’s office at once! He wants to speak with you!” Again, the officer yelled.

In one swift motion the officer turned around to face the large gold doors behind you and readied himself to leave the room.

Question reasoning?

Remain silent...

Question authority!
