The Darkness of Old

“Jason, have a Lighting bolt!” Sarah yelled

It was just another day, and another Larp sesh. We had no idea what we would uncover, or where it would send us...but we aren’t really complaining! On the contrary, we are having a blast. You see it happened a long while ago, 2000 years ago to be exact, but we were sent here via a book.

“Hey guys! Come look what I found!” I yelled

That book to be exact. The Treoir maidir le Díláithriú as I remember it. I think it was gaelic...maybe just Irish? I honestly do not know the language it was written in. I do know that the inside was partly translated. It said that we could transform into what we wanted to be, but at a cost. A transaction of currency was required in order to do anything. We all traded cash, hoping that would let us do what we wanted.

“So guys, what should we be?” Felix asked

“Nazgul.” Sarah said instantly

“Wraiths” I suggested

“What do you think Nazgul are?”

"I say Sangheili..." Greg said

"Nah man, Cyborgs...we'd be immortal!" Felix stated

"We'd Also be immortal as Nazgul!" Sarah argued

"Yeah, but what about lasers...I bet they don't have that!"

"Nope, just magic...which you don't have to RELOAD!"

"Yeah, what about when you run out of mana...you would only have a sword!"

"Well at least we wouldn't have to recharge our vitals every few years!"

Their argument carried on for a while...and we did eventually put it to a vote. Nazuls won with four, second was Sangheili with three, and tie for last with Robots and cyborgs with one each. After that we had to select a location. What we did know is that we would be there instantly...what we did not know is that it only took one person to think of a location for it to transport us to. So, what happened next should be self explanatory, if not here is what happend. Joe thought of Equestria, so we were sent to Equestria. That’s how we came to be here.
