Knight of Tamriel, Warrior of Equis
Talking to royalty (Sorta Kinda edited)
Previous ChapterNext ChapterTo say I was excited was a lie, I had met enough Nobles in my life to know exactly what I would be walking into. Worst case scenario it was a hoity-toity Noble with some sense of grandeur, best case scenario they'd be an actual alright person. I'm leaning more towards worst case scenario. I made my way back to where I had told the purple unicorn pegasus I would meet her princess. I saw Zecora on the way back, and she waved back. It's nice, knowing that there are a few Intelligent races in this world. I also took note of strange blue flowers, and what looked like a stone structure across an ancient bridge. Nothing else of note showed itself during the hour long walk, and as I approached the border of the forest I looked around for her. Sure enough there she was, as well as a taller White unicorn Pegasus. Plus a few guards with spears, and they looked green.
"You must be the princess I've been told about." I say, revealing my location to them
"Halt in the name of Celestia, disarm yourself immediately!" The first guard says, raising his spear, and poking me with it
"Your armor is poorly constructed, and you are greener than moss on bark. I'll give you three seconds to get that spear out of my gut, before my sword plunges into yours." I say, drawing my blade and sticking right above where his stomach should be.
"And what about me, betcha did-"
"You would be immolated by my flames." I say to the second guard, I hear him gulp shortly after
"Stand down." A gental voice says
"Yes princess!"
"Yes princess!" Both guards say, snapping their spears up to their sides
"So you're the monster Twilight has been talking about, you do not look all that powerful." The Princess says
"Looks can be deceiving, after all I suspect none of your subjects know of your actual power." I say, her eyes shrink for a second
"What do you mean by that?" She asks
"You reek of cake." I say, getting a smile outta her
"Well, I'm glad I do." She says "I am Celestia, co-ruler of Equestria, and Princess of the Sun. Who may I ask are you?"
"I am Reaper, Grand Champion of the Imperial Arena, Knight of the Imperial legion, and Speaker of the Dark Brotherhood." I say
"Might I ask how you got here?" Celestia asks
I tell her of the Oblivion Gates and Oblivion crisis my world is going through, and I fill her in on what my position means in the Imperial Legion.
She frowns "So you are basically a member of a glorified Suicide Squad. Your world's presnt sounds barbaric, similar to my world's past. But how do you know that you're in a different world?"
I smirk under my helm "We have two moons." I say, earning a flabbergasted look from Celestia
"Well, I will have to look into getting you back to your world, but you'll need somewhere to stay...come with me, will get you accommodated at the castle."
I smell fish. "Do you usually let strange creatures from other worlds stay in your Castle?" I ask, sensing a bit of a catch
"Well, I do not fully trust you yet, and I would like to keep an eye on you...if that's not too much trouble?"
I weigh my options. Stay in forest and possibly starve or freeze to death, not under watch, and have Intelligent friend. Go to Castle where food is in abundance, and where there are most likely nice warm beds, but under watch, and surrounded by morons. "Sure, better than freezing to death out here...mostly" I mutter the last part under my breath
"I'm glad. Follow me, we have more to discuss at the castle."
Author's Note
I really hope you all are enjoying this, and if you didn't like the first chapter why are you reading the second chapter? Where's the logic behind that?
Anywho, Seeya in the next chapter.
