Sandro first person narrative:

"so were was i ah yes i left twilight's castle in a storm of rage not my best moment but i will think of a way to salvage this.
For now my goal is to explore this everfree forest for some reason i felt some familiar presence from this dark woods a presence i felt in the Invisible Library".

everfree forest:night time

It was a long walk from ponyville to the forest but sandro made it and he felt raw magic all over the forest it made him have a small nostalgic feelings to the time he was in the spider cult. Sandro kept walking to the forest and then he stop looking at the woods and began to speak.

"Who ever you are come out of the shadows i will prefer to speak to my stalker in person". Sandro said to no one.

From the dark woods a pony came out well a very short zebra wearing golden trinkets on her body that remind him of the shamans of the orc tribes.

"You are far deep in the everfree are you lost pony or is it danger what you seek?". She said to him in form of a rhyme.

"Great she talk in rhymes". Sandro said to himself.

"So i will once more are you friend or are you foe". She ask him for an answer.

"I will answer your constant query if you stop this insufferable rhyming". Sandro said to her in her very own form of rhyme speech.

"Very well so now if you don't mind i what to talk to your true form it will be more pleasant". She said to him a smile on her face.

"Well you are full of surprises little shaman, very well just don't scream in panic". Sandro said to her his eyes glow in a a sick green color and no more a pony stood but the former human now stand before her.

"The name is Alejandro Dela Segadora but since you saw through my disguise you may call me by my common name, i am the great Nethermancer sandro. And what is your name shaman?". Sandro ask her.

"Well i'm impressed you know i am a shaman you my call me Zecora and if i my ask you great Nethermancer sandro what is a Nethermancer?". Zecora ask him in respond.

"Well i will answer your query zecora and please just sandro, anyway a Nethermancer is a necromancer studying and practicing the magic of the void. Nethermancers come to be from the very skilled Necromancers distinguished for their perfection of the art of raising undeath. However, they manage to take Necromancy to a whole new level by venturing into the Void of the death and searching to bind its powers to their own bidding". sandro explain her the answer to her query.

"I know of necromancy but to bind the power of the aether to become something more is well". Before she said another word sandro spoke. " I believe the word you are looking for is well "evil". Sandro said to her.

"To some yes the aether is an unnatural power that corrupt all that use it but you mange to bind and master over it." zacora said to him in response.

"Yes well i will love to tell you my story and maybe you will tell me about this forest but do you know a place that is more not in the open?". Sandro ask her and looking at the woods at the same time.

"Yes we can go to my hut and talk more there". She said to him

"By all means lead the way". Sandro said giving a small bow.

On the way to zecora's hut sandro notice some one is observing them. "We are being watch by something". Sandro said to her. "Keep moving my hut is close". Zacora said to him.

When they reach zacora's hut they heard the howling at very close and appeared before them a large pack of 30 to 40 wooden wolves.

"Timberwolves and many of them i never saw so much at one place". Zacora said in the open.

"Great more puns". Sandro said to himself looking at the wooden wolves.

As the wolves began to move zacora spoke. "Well it was good to know you necromancer but fate wants us dead". She said to him terrifying that she will meet her end soon.

"No i have a plan a long shot of a plan but it can work". Sandro said to her.

At this moment the wolves began to run and at this point sandro spoke to them. "By the will of Sylanna i invoke the act of truce between me and the will of the forest". After sandro said that the wolves stop at their place and a huge wooden wolf came in front of him and began to talk.

"You dare invoke the will of the mother of the earth, you who spread the taint of the void in her lands why should we accept your words of truce". The large wolf said to sandro.

"Because you large pile of bonefire i was sent to this world by The Spider Queen her self". Sandro said to the spirit of the forest.

"The all mother sand you here. Then we know where you must go from here to the old ruins of the children's of light and shadow". The spirit said to him in respond to his words.

"What is your name warden of the forest?". Sandro ask the wolf.

"We have no name but you my call us the Watcher of the everfree, but the shaman will not follow we will send a small pack of 10 wolves to guide her out of the forest till your task is done". The watcher said to him in demand.

"Very well lets go to this ruins of yours but before that zacora when you leave the forest go to miss twilight and inform her that she must order her ponies to not go to the forest til the next week understand". Sandro said to his new shaman companion.

"I will sand her the message, and may the spirits protect you Sandro". She said to him in respond.

And they part ways zacora and a company of 10 wolves to ponyville and sandro along side the rest of the wolves to the castle ruins. It was a long walk sandro notice the wild life making way and running away from them out of the forest like they know something bad is gonna happened. At the and of the long journey they reach the ruins and they began to talk.

"From this point on we will not follow you Nethermancer you must go to the end of the ruins and seek the the lost prisoner he can tell you of what is the purpose that the mother creator send you to this realm". The watcher said to sandro and left to the woods to return to is eternal vigil of the everfree.

"Well then lets see what lies beneath this old ruins". Sandro said to him self as he enter the castle.

castle of the two sisters:

It was dark, old, full of dust and full of magic sandro was impressed after this search of the truth of this world maybe he will move to this place it will fit the undead atmosphere in a very good way.

"Come out from your place of hiding i know you see me and the forest Watcher said you can help me clear something about way that foolish dragon sand to this place". Sandro said to his new stalker in order to provoke it to come out of hiding.

Suddenly a blast of shadow energy came out of all the castle and a huge shade came to be and a voice so deep came to.

"Do not dare to insult the will of the Multifaced Goddess for you are a "defiler" of her work". The shade said to sandro in anger.

"I am no loger bound by the dogma of the dragon gods they can't do anything to me, and you talk so high and mighty for a prisoner in this world like me so why are you here "Faceless of Malassa". Sandro said to the Faceless, he know of the ancient race he got to know them when he enter the Invisible Library after all.

The shade then turn to a floating body it had dark purple skin and wings and he had no legs he had long tendrils of mass shadow and his face was only a mask like the one sandro was using.

"You know of my kind "defiler" but i am more powerful then the rest of my kin for much like you i all so use the power of the void but i did it to aid my kin against the celestial cohorts and by doing so i was condemned by Malassa to this realm to protect her child of shadow". The faceless said to sandro.

"I see and by child of shadow do you mean lady luna?" sandro ask him.

"The one they call luna is one of the children of the "Keeper of the deadly secrets" but luna is her herald in this realm and i was send here to guard her chosen the "umbral king" but the ponies know him by the name king sombra". the prisoner said to him.

"So why the dragon of Darkness need some ponies to be guard by a faceless, by the way what is your name? My name is sandro and yours is?". Sandro ask him.

"I am the lost prisoner but before that it was judeais. And the reason why i am here is bound to me in a seal of silence but beware if you break the seal the warden of my cell will come and will see me dead". Judeais said to sandro in a warning words.

"Its a chance i wiling to take now step back". Sandro said to him in respond.

At this moment sandro lift his staff and void power came out of it and shutter the seal and the lost prisoner was a prisoner no more.

"Now tell me what is our purpose in this world". Sandro said in demand.

Suddenly a huge roar came outside the castle and then judeais said to him,"the warden has come to this world ". He told sandro.

"That is no warden, come on getup and lets go meet our new gust". Sandro said to him.

As they exit the castle they see a giant Dragonwraith the size of a mountain staring at them.

"Well we meet once more sandro". The Dragonwraith said to sandro.

"Yes its good to see you to Archon Belketh". Sandro said in spite he now knew this will only end in battle.
