Sandro first person narrative:

"after i finished the story i revealed my creation to the ponies and they will what an explanation. To think i will have to explain my self to horses what i do for the art of creation void take me".

marrowgrave castle:

"WHAT". The three princesses said at the same time.

"what is the matter with you ponies about overreacting to every small thing that is happening in your life". Sandro siad to the princesses.

"well how you had reacted if you heard that a criminal of the first degree will some how appear outside her imprisonment". Celestia answer to him in anger.

"what you describe as imprisonment is the basic function of a cockatrice. I mean petrifies some one to stone that is so stupid and more then that why are you keeping them in your garden like a lawn ornaments no wander my agents found her so fast". Sandro said to celestia using a disappointing and sarcastic tone.

"why did you free her at the first place!". Luna said to sandro in demand.

"well once you see the new chrysalis you will know that she is not what she used to be. In every aspect of life or unlife in that matter". Sandro said to luna.

"so where is she?". Twilight ask him.

At twilight said that music started to be heard and from the large door to the court she enter the room the former queen of the changelings but she was not the same is was taller then what she was in the past she had on her body a combination of a armor and a dress, her former crown was gone now she had a larger black and yellow crown on her head part of her face and her skin was pale black like the rest of the dead, and when she set in the throne all the dead except sandro bow to her and then chrysalis started to talk to the princesses.

"we meet again princesses of equestria i hope you are treated well in our necropolis". Chrysalis said to them.

"chrysalis what happened to you...you look like you are". Twilight said to her but was interrupted by chrysalis .

"dead, well a small price to pay when you become the will of the spider". Chrysalis said to twilight.

"so are you going to seek out your vengeance upon equestria now that you have the power to control the dead?". Celestia asked the former queen.

"is that all you want to know, disappointing but very well i will give you an answer. No i will not seek vengeance on equestria that was the goal of queen chrysalis and she is gone from this world". Chrysalis said to celestia.

"what do you mean when you say that she is gone from this world are you not queen chrysalis?". Luna asked chrysalis.

"no, queen chrysalis and all of her deeds in world of the living where gone the moment i was reborn as a Namtaru and my only goal now is to serve the spider goddess as her will and voice in the necropolis". Chrysalis answered luna.

"but how and when all of this happened?". Twilight asked her.

"oh i can answer that for you young twilight, now come close to me my little ponies i have a story to share with you about how chrysalis turn from a living queen to an undead priestess of asha,now this story starts after i give luna and celestia the reason why i build this necropolis at the first place and after they want off back to canterlot i told them that i will send a message when young twilight will awake from slumber but when all of that was happening i had send my agent judeais to recover something in canterlot that got me intrigued you see when i first came to this land i want to ponyville after the bad formalities me and luna started to talk and she told me what happened in your kingdom six months ago about a small pegasus child,a magic eating centaur and and a bug like creature that can shapeshift that you call a changeling. But that was interesting to me since i know that a changeling is not a bug in my world so while i gave you a tour i told judeais to bring back this changeling to see if my theory is correct and i told him to cast a strong illusion on the stone prison so no one will notice and when you left to canterlot i want to the lower crypts to meet this changeling. And from this point our story begins". Sandro told them and he began to tell them the story about his meeting with chrysalis.

two days ago:

marrowgrave castle lower crypts:

"no i will have my revenge!". Chrysalis shouted as she awoken from her slumber.

"i was in cast to stone and was placed in canterlot with cozy glow and tirek. Damm them all i will have my revenge on the ponies, but first how did i got out of the stone prison and more important where am i this is not canterlot this place is drowning in dark magic". Chrysalis said to her self but was shortly interrupted when she heard a something coming to her.

From the darkness she heard hissing sound a familiar hissing sound of changelings and she had enough of changelings not obeying her commands. "you dare hiss at your true queen show your self cowards!". Chrysalis was yelling at them and she lit her horn and shot a strong ray of magic at the sky to show her power and to see the fools that hiss at her.

As the area was cover in light from chrysalis horn she saw the ones that disrespect her. But what she saw was not some hiveless feral changelings or the peace loving traitors of her son thorax. No what she saw before her were not changelings but monsters in changeling form they were changelings made of bone and tattered flesh, some were cover in dark green glow and some in dark purple glow like living nightmares. Even chrysalis started to show fear and started to run only to find that she was not in some cave or hive but she was in a large tomb with no doors she started to fly up in order to find some way out but she then saw them they were like the dead changelings on the ground but they were larger and faster then her and their body and legs were not of a changeling but of spiders and bats. When the new horrors saw her they hiss at her in a form of a screech so loud that she fell down to the center of the tomb.

"don't come any closer stop now!". She yell at the monsters but they did not stop.

Chrysalis was afraid she did not know what to do she stared at her death and in the panic and fear in her body she was desperate and she said four words she never said in her life. "somepony please help me!". She yell to the tomb in hope that somepony will hear her.

"well since you ask so nicely i will help you". A voice came out of nowhere and the sound of something snapping was heard and all the dead changelings stop moving and where staring at chrysalis with their dead hollow eyes.

From one of the archways of the tomb a dark green portal was opened and an unknown bipedal creature. From his voice he was male but he had a strange mask on his face, he was wearing a dark green cloak and small bits of armor on it, on his neck he had an amulet in the shape of a skull,his finger had a ring of similar design and he was carrying in his hand a staff that chrysalis felt the strong dark magic from it.

"You are welcome by the way". He said to her.

"Who are you i am ordering you to tell me where i am and how i got here". Chrysalis said to him.

"How cute you think you have any power in this place, if you did not notice you are surrounded by your dead children after i resurrected them and did some modification on them, but we will have time to talk about them later now lets introduce ourselves to each other my name is netherking sandro ruler of the undead kingdom of marrowgrave. And you are?". Sandro asked her.

"Chrysalis queen of the changelings and what did you mean undead kingdom before i was cast to stone no such kingdom of the dead existed how long long i was in stone?". Chrysalis asked him.

"About six months at least that is what miss luna said to me when we talk when i first came to this horrid land". Sandro answer to her.

"You are friends with princesses!". Chrysalis yelled at him.

"First stop yelling its not complementing on your royal attire, second i have no friends only means to an end". Sandro said to her.

Chrysalis stop yelling at him and she had a little blush on her face and she said to him. "Oh you like my royal complexion well i can show you more if you will help me in some things involving some six ponies". Chrysalis said to sandro in a seductive tone.

"Are you trying to seduce me my you sure work fast but i have to ask you to stop your powers of seduction will not work on me and you know it you eat love don't you so try to find some in me". Sandro said to her.

"Well then since you give me the ok i will don't blame me for what will happened". Chrysalis said back.

She then started to eat love but she met something else not love but something dark,lonely,ancient,powerful but most important it was empty no emotions of love or hate and then she herd a noise.

The voice said and chrysalis started screaming but it was in her head.

On the out side sandro looked at her and saw she was crying and not moving so he snap in fingers and chrysalis started to crawl into a ball and she asked him. "What was that?" she asked him between her tears.

"That my good queen was an ancient power source i am using when i casting spells, every living using that power will go mad and die but my kind are immune to madness or death". Sandro told her and help her up.

"And why is that why are you immune to that thing". Chrysalis asked him.

"Well i was hoping you will ask that". Sandro said to her as he was taking off the mask.

"Allow me to introduce my self again my name is necromancer sandro all so known as The Shadow of Death and i am here to offer you a gift chrysalis former queen of the changelings to become something more powerful then a changeling but to become the wielder of fate and dreams of the living and dead, and you will become a hive queen again a hive queen to every undead on this planet. Now i will give you time to think about it and ask any questions you have". Sandro said to chrysalis.

"I have only two questions". Chrysalis said to him.

"Ask away". Sandro replay.

"One in order to become that powerful i will have to die?". Chrysalis asked him.

"Yes a small setback but you will feel nothing all the way". Sandro said to her.

"Ok and two will i be stronger then the elements of harmony?". She asked him.

"Chrysalis my dear you will have the power to command the dead what can harmony do to a legions of undead that will kill all they see when you command them". Sandro said to her.

"Ok i made my decision turn my into an undead so i will have the power to get my revenge". Chrysalis said with a grin on her face.

"That will not do chrysalis in order to become what your Mother wanted you to become you most let go of the past and except the necromancers code". Sandro said to chrysalis about the path she will take.

"You new my mother". Chrysalis said to him.

"Well not your real mother i met your ancestor the first of your kind and let me tell you this chrysalis from the moment i saw you i new what you are and you are not a changeling you are a Namtaru". Sandro said to her.

"I am a what?". She asked him.

"You chrysalis are a Namtaru let me explain: Namtarus, or Fate Spinners, are emanations of the Mother Namtaru, an avatar of the Spider Goddess, a truly divine reflection of the Death aspect of Asha.They can either assume the form of a spider-woman hybrid or that of a female humanoid with two legs and six arms.Worshipped by the Necromancers, who use their venom to sustain their ranks of Liches and Vampires, Namtarus will often be present at the founding of a Necropolis, like the queen of a hive, to fortify its foundations and nurture its growth.The Namtarus regularly counsel their devotees through whisper, rhyme, and even dream.Under their protection, the Undead comb the region for lost souls which they then recruit to swell their ranks. The moment i saw you i new you are like your ancestor the Great Namtaru or Mother Namtaru after all i did try to kill her and all of her kind of the face of ashan but i failed i did not kill them i mange only curse them. But you most understand if you don't clear your mind the process will destroy your soul do you understand". Sandro said to as he prepared the ritual.

"Very well tell me what i must do". Chrysalis said to him.

"Say what i am saying in the same order". Sandro said to her and he began the ritual of asha's kiss.

"Life is change, chaos, filth and suffering. Death is peace, order, everlasting beauty". Sandro said.

"Life is change, chaos, filth and suffering. Death is peace, order, everlasting beauty". Chrysalis said it after him.

"Asha ruler of life and death let this one join your rank as one of your most devoted and made her in your image". Sandro said to the chamber and then nothing happened.

"It did not work". Chrysalis said to him.

"No the ritual is not finish one more part must be played". Sandro said to her.

"And whats that?". She asked him.

"Well you are smart so answer me this what do you think is the last part in a ritual named ritual of asha's kiss". Sandro said to her.

"Oh OH you mean you and i need to kiss". Chrysalis said to sandro.

"Yes is that a problem, a moment ago you wanted to sleep with me for power and now i give you the power over death and all you need to do is to kiss me". Sandro said to her.

"Fine kissing a skeleton won't be the worst thing i did in my life". She said to him.

They came close to each other and they kissed after the kiss a dark green glow surround chrysalis and for ten minutes she was in a strange cocoon and seven hours later she emerge out of her cocoon but what came out was not chrysalis the changeling but what came out was chrysalis a Namtaru fate weaver. She had the lower body of a spider and the upper torso of a human but in the color of a changeling,she had a dark carapace armor on her upper body,two pincer arms and a huge crown in the color of yellow that got to some parts of her face. When she open her eyes they where glowing green full of necromantic power. And when sandro saw her he started to talk to her.

"Welcome back to the world of the living or dead if you want how are you feeling". Sandro said to her.

"I feel better no hate or love only the will the serve the spider" chrysalis said to him.

"Well i am glad you are ok but i need to apologize to you". Sandro said to her.

"Why is something wrong with me?". Chrysalis asked him.

"Well no but i need to inform you that you are not a Fate Spinner you became a fate weaver allow me to explain: The Fate Weaver is Asha's compliment to the Fate Spinner. Where the latter unravels the fragile threads of life and death from the substance of void, the Fate Weaver incorporates them into its very fabric, following the pattern that the Spider Queen has ordained. Asha has also given them the power to control time whenever their purpose warrants". Sandro explain to chrysalis.

"Well that is an upgrade so what now?". Chrysalis asked the necromancer.

"Now you rest and tomorrow i will introduce you to your new hive and to some of our neighbors but for now sleep chrysalis Namtaru of marrowgrave necropolis". Sandro said and he exited the crypt and let chrysalis have her rest.
