The Best Troller In ALL Of Equestria

"Come meet our stallion counterparts!"

Celestia appeared in the library of a different universe, looked around, and saw she was completely alone. Standing up to find the numbing spell was slowly but surely wearing off, she said to herself, "Oh… OH! That little witch! How dare she! I can hardly believe that if my own student had to overthrow me, and take control of the kingdom, she would become a tyrant as well!"

Stretching her back to get the feeling back into her spine once more, she thought about everything that had transpired. She would never be sure of it, but then, she knew with magic comes the utilization of certain characteristics of said magic. It was possible that alicorn Twilight absorbed not only the power of her mentor and once loved one, but also her tyrannical traits as well.

She left the library to go find her lost sister only to see the halls were very different from the way they looked in all the other worlds. The carpet for example had small, though exquisitely designed holes, and the walls were emblazoned with racks of heavy swords, amongst other brutal weaponry. It all seemed more masculine to the Princess.

The more she approached the throne room, or what she believed to be a throne room, she heard deep and booming voices of stallions laughing, and partying. As she got to the door, she saw it to be wooded rather than gold, and a single opener instead of double doors. She pushed it opened, and saw two huge, square table resting inside with at least fifty or so stallions sitting around it. They all were busy with eating, drinking, and having a grand old time. They all had beards, and some had mustaches. A lot of them had rough chest hair, but the only mare Celestia saw in the room was her sister sitting in the middle of the square. The last rows of tables were gone to revile the throne, and this world’s ruler. Celestia thought it rather typical of Luna to fit right in with the chaotic bunch.

As Celestia approached the benches, she heard her sister telling a story of when she battled a Jabberwocky. They were dragon like beings but much bigger. Because of their horrible ways of pillaging and destruction, Celestia and Luna found it necessary to extinguish them, a task they wish they didn’t need to do, but had to if they so wished to protect the kingdom at the time. Luna finished her story, and then saw her sister.

"Oh, Celestia!" Luna beckoned her sister to join them. "Come meet our stallion counterparts!"

As soon as Celestia heard this, she noticed two Lords sitting side by side. One looked like Luna. That was the one to the left, and the one to the right looked like Celestia.

Lord Nocturne

Luna scooted herself next to her counterpart to allow Celestia room to fit. She leaped over the table with grace and lowered herself to sit with the stallion version of herself. He looked at her with a friendly smile, and said, "Hello… My name is Lord Solaris, guardian, and savior of the land of Equestrius. Allow me to introduce my brother, Lord Nocturne."

He gestured to the stallion sitting next to Luna who had some bits of hey in his mouth. He swallowed it rather quickly, reached over the table to get a better view of the Princess, and said, "A pleasure to meet you, and your sister, of course. If I might say, what a grand representation of myself as a mare... I never would have guessed this to happen! Parallel universes in which most every possible outcome could happen in over a thousand different worlds. It’s simply head spinning!"

Lord Solaris got the Celestia's and Luna's attention by saying, "Luna has told us all about your adventure up till this point, and I must say, I’ve heard tales of bravery... I've even heard tales of extensive heroism, but this one is more than that! This one is just… It's down right hilarious!"

He began laughing aloud. Eventually, Celestia and Luna laughed along knowing he was right. The Lords and Princesses ate with each other in peace while leisurely talking and describing their worlds, and what they did there. It turned out that Lord Solaris and Nocturne’s world was just a little more chaotic than theirs. What should one expect, however, when the ruler was a stallion who could be benevolent one second, and merciless when he needed to be? Lord Solaris explained that things weren’t always easy for them in the vast and ever expanding land of Equestrius, and that they had learned a thing or two about alternate universes themselves that the Princesses would probably gain from know about.

"Now, for starters…." Solaris began. "Never change the course of a world. Leave it exactly the way it is, because otherwise, you may be damaging it unintentionally. Second, don’t assume something until you know for sure it’s true. For example, let’s say you find yourself in a world where it seems to be destroyed. One should never make immediate assumptions... I understand you must use a lot of energy to teleport from world to world, too. There’s why you and your sister got separated! Luna hadn’t enough power to match your own, and was sent here, and you were sent some universe elsewhere… By the way, where did you end up at?"

Celestia gulped some bits of food down as she recalled the alicorn Twilight she had just met, and what had happened to her. She said in a nervous tone, "Oh, I wound up finding somepony that helped me reunite with my sister. That’s all…"

Lord Nocturne chuckled, and said, "Well, lucky you. Who was it?"

Princess Celestia didn’t want to tell them about it, and Luna could tell by her blushing cheeks, so to save her sister from embarrassment, Luna interjected by saying, "Actually, forget about that for now! It’s late, and we actually need a room to stay in for the night."

Lord Nocturne smiled at Luna, and said, "You may have our quarters, your Highnesses."

Lord Solaris agreed with the notion, and said, "It’s only fitting you two receive the best during your visit. Besides, what kind rulers would we be if we gave you one of the feeble, rundown rooms? No! You deserve your privacy in luxury."

The throne room, more like a dining room than anything, emptied slowly as the Princesses and Lords began venturing to their chambers. Upon entering, Celestia found it to be just like her room only colored differently. Not as pink, but more sunset red. The lord said, "You may take my bed. I can sleep on the balcony, it’s what I usually do lately, anyway… Don’t ask why, please."

Meanwhile, in Lord Nocturne’s room, Luna hopped on the bed while saying, "Ah… That’s comfy… Where are you going to sleep?"

Nocturne giggled and claimed, "I stay up during the night… Don’t you?"

Luna blushed while saying, "I… Usually do, but I need my rest to regenerate my energy."

Nocturne gave Luna a kind smile, and said, "Then you go ahead and rest; you need it so you may be ready by tomorrow to travel."

As the two mares slept that night, Lord Solaris and Lord Nocturne watched the night sky with observant eyes. Eventually, Nocturne’s brother fell asleep, as did the Princesses.
