One Teleportation Spell later.

Henry was recuperating from the shock of being teleported. "Sweet Celestia! That is something I will need to get used to." Henry said in suprise as the sensation of being teleported by magic and all his theoretical discussion and the meaning behind it with his friends came flooding in. After a few seconds he noticed they were in a study, Books and scrolls and bookcases as far as the eye could see and even a bird porch next to a beautiful oaken desk standing on a beautiful white marble floor.Yep most likely Celestia her private study or workroom or something of that nature Henry thought calmly.

Celestia laughed at her name being used like that "It's adorable to see your responses to such simple things Bluey." Celestia said with a smile.

Henry just sighed and notices Luna standing near the Desk "It's not adorable. Honestly I wish I could focus on learning magic but considering the current situation of my lands , my previous bad management and foolish spending sprees my hooves are tied" Henry said a bit worried and down only to be cheered up by both Philomena and the bat rubbing against his face cheering him up slightly. As Luna noticed the bat her expression turned to one of worry but the smile that formed on Henry's face made the worry die down a little."Thanks Philomena and you too sky doggo. Well we better get to work Spellslinger hand them the scroll I wrote previously. This is going to be one unpleasant meeting" Henry said bracing himself for the possible backlash of his situation.

Spellslinger handed the scroll to Celestia who walked towards The desk where Luna was standing and opened it, they were quickly joined by the prying eyes of Midnight and Spellslinger who themselves were unaware what Henry wrote within it.

Plan to handle current situations.

It has come to my attention that the land I manage their denizens have it hard therefore my private abode within Dartmoor which is large and seems to have way to much staff will be opened to the public as temporary housing to ensure the Thestrals in my managed region have a good abode to reside in aswell as a location to get food and drink to ensure their well-being.
My local servants or those who attend to me at that location will cater to their needs with the same loyalty and dedication they should show me if not more.

Whilst this is a temporary solution my own income of bits will be made available to use to ensure to revitalisation and construction of required infrastructure within the area of Dartmoor. I only require enough to pay my servants and aids to continue their work and enough income to be able to ensure I can eat highly protein filled food whilst I recover my strength.

This might currently lessen the direct issues at hoof but there is an issue of disappearances and possible corruption within the area I manage for this I would like to temporary use part of the Equestrian guard to accompany me whilst I head to nearby cave systems to look for signs of corruption most likely diamond dog slaving rings and smuggling within the area. But a probability of a nearby dragon is possible because of the high amounts of missing denizens a large diamond dog mine or slave ring might have attracted a dragon in the area.
This military intervention is of high importance and must be inacted before other changes in the area are pushed to not warn any of the corrupt individuals in advance. Though I understand neither of you would want me to risk myself to accompany such an expedition this is final either respect my desire to fix the mistakes I've inherited from my previous foolish self. Or state that I am a prince only in title and I will look for other means to root out the corruption within the area which will be less legal and hospitable. Considering this there is no middle ground to achieve with me and if Tender Care proves my method of healing magic works and you would have decided to not let me take the required actions for the best of the subjects I'm responsible for. I'd gladly part ways with both of you and renounce any title or connections to Equestria and it's royalty so I will be able to act without it affecting royalty directly but it would require me to alter my approach considering the next subject on this plan.

Third important approach would require cooperation of both of my Aunties which is public decree of amnesia and getting so called aid managing my land if you give me a sudonym that will be acting like a false regent to my responsibilities while I could remain secluded whilest I relearn most things and to draw suspicion away from me whilst the execution of other aspects of this list would ensure stability and growth within the Dartmoor and the surrounding region I'm responsible for under the non existent regent's name would be a good lure to get to the bottom of the underlying source of corruption that led to my assassination attempt where it may come. Ontop of that the amnesia part would be explain my weird behaviour and would explain the desire for education and knowledge of course I'll combine this with a rather kind and naive front which would result if I was someone's previous pawn to regain some semblance of autonomy and say while also giving me a easy public reason to undo my previous mistakes if they should arise which would lure anypony who had a semblance of sway over my decisions to try and revert or manipulate me since I'd be to useful to be discarded as one of the only leads for them to the nonexistent regent. I'd most likely also need to be taught how to wash myself and care for my coat mane and tail.

Fourth goal (optional) using the knowledge of my insanity, hallucination or what could be a pre-merging of personalities it's knowledge to turn fasten the recuperation of my lands and ensure a major growth for ponykind. Though not all knowledge will be applied if magic is flexible to the point that Tender Care is able to recreate my previous feat with the wounded cook. I fear for the fate of everypony if certain knowledge escaped and of course I wish to capitalise on the knowledge to be able to fund further research and turn Dartmoor into a blast furnace of innovation.

Vladimir Blueblood

The mares looked in shock at the written scroll. Luna was the first to speak.

"Has thou completely lost thou senses Blueblood! Thou want us to lie to our ponies and let thou wander off with innocent ponies to the lands thou manages to deal with something thou thinks is there without having any evidence of the sort even going so far to state if thou doesn't get thine way thou would drop thine title to use other methods and to top it all off thour insanity has thouself believing thine mind is affected by what thou used as a crutch. Thou has also told thine physician of thine delusion fueled spell when we told thou not to share it. " Luna said angrily at Henry but was quickly calmed down by Celestia. Who promptly turned towards Henry with a worrying gaze.

"Blueblood tell us what do you mean by pre-merging of personalities or what you think is affecting your mind and be honest with us. We want to help you." Celestia said sounding like a worrying mother

Henry just sat there nervously hugging and petting his animal company to try and steel his nerves. Then after a little while he spoke "I am scared. I've woken up as something I don't remember being in the medical wing. Only having tid bits of information to go with and those come from sources that makes no sense. The fear of hurting you two if the reality of the situation is what I theorise it is. " Henry said nervously this made the mares looked more confused then worried or angry. Then Henry spoke again tears coming from his eyes "I am either possessing your nephew slowly merging with a suppressed remnant of his personality, a messed up fever dream from his Psyche or having a very realistic coma dream. Honestly it doesn't matter either way what is going on with me. I'm either going to completely regress into my foal like mindset , the mentality of the previous Blueblood before the incident , some weird amalgamation of those options or something entirely different. My most trusted tool has always been my mind. I can't trust it now." Henry said almost breaking down but Philomena and the bat comforted him while the ponies looked at him with a mixture of shock and Compassion.

Celestia stepped towards Henry and looked down at him with compassion. Henry looked down at the ground his tail instinctively going between his hind legs and his ears drooping down.
Celestia stepped closer putting a hoof on Henry his shoulder but as she wanted to speak Luna interrupted.

"Thou believes thou art either possessing our nephew or thou art having a psychosis. If thou truly are possessing our nephew why does thou refer to us as aunties?" Luna said in a calm compassionate tone as she looked at the distraught stallion.

"Luna! Now isn't the time to question him. He is having a breakdown no matter if what he says is true or not. He is confused and scared" Celestia said sounding motherly but Henry pushed Celestia her hoof of his shoulder.
Both Spellslinger and Midnight looked at Henry with compassion the same stallion that previously seemed either calm and in control now looked seemed broken.

"No she is right." Henry said in a calm tone as he dried his eyes with his hoof and tried to appear more brave standing firmly. "Luna or well auntie Luna. I have recently been hearing the voice of a little colt in my head the same colt of the memory you watched me go in. I'd expect him to talk to me now because previously he did talk during emotional moments. He told me to call you both our aunties. He's a good little colt which only makes this entire situation more messed up."Henry said as his calm tone shifted to anger. "It just bucking sickens me that such a nice seeming kid turned into the arrogant stupid mismanaging noble I hate. I know bad nobles aren't born they are made considering how he was as a colt. But I can't let him deal with all this.I feel his attachments. I felt emotions with those suppressed memories and I can't just let a kid deal with this all that isn't who I am. As for those responsible who put us in this situation. Wether I am just a personality born from madness or I was truly ripped from my home or this is just a comatose dream doesn't matter one bit. I will make those responsible pay not in blood or coin but I will make them lose all their power. Use the rebuilding of Dartmoor to fuel innovations that will run them out of their economical or governmental power. Whilest I act as a amnesiac using the false regent to execute that plan and then when they and their cohorts lie powerless, I'll disarm them one by one letting the proof leak to the public and when I finally find the one ontop I'll make them tumble whilst showing to our citizens and them publicly it was my plan all along and leave them at the side as the living waste of space they are. I might never forgive them but to me they'll be insignificant and powerless when I'm done with them. They'll be able to better themselves but no matter I would have won. I'd have won the hearts of the ponies by stamping out corruption where I can find it whilest better the lives of others. And those who tried to kill me for being in their way or if it was motivated out of being a useless pawn in their eyes will understand one fundamental truth. That they made a large mistake and are dealing with somepony who sees them as not worth a second afterwards. They might have caused me alot of harm but they aren't worth my vengeful ire. And it's better for ponies like them to lose credibility and power and fall to the wayside as dust forgotten by the march of time but if they wish to better themselves the option is there. In all truth I would gladly ensure they fall to the wayside and have no hoof to stand on or rebuild from but it's not my right to take their freedom and possibility of a future away but as I stated before they aren't worth the worst I can dish out. For even if they caused me much turmoil with their attempt they unexpectedly did something that might be better for all." Henry said angrily seeming like a plotting predator as the normally large pupils were smaller and focused.

The gaze and Henry his words made both Midnight and Spellslinger quiver but Luna looked at Henry in understanding while Celestia looked in worryingly at him unsure to worry for her ponies or what the poison had done to her nephew.
Nephew what has happened to make you switch so easily from a joyful confused stallion that pranked the guards not to long ago to this. Celestia worryingly thought but then Henry his advice to the guard sprung back into her mind advice sounding like it would fit from the time when Equis still had major conflict or when the tribes were divided then she realised something the mentality maybe was strange in modern Equestria but back during the days of her mentor and even the pillars such mentalities were more common in Stallions.

Spellslinger shakingly spoke "If an attempt at murder and what happened to you isn't worth your worst then what is?" The mare asked worryingly this caused Henry to cough slightly.

"Simple it's the destruction of possibilities of others their futures. I am of a firm belief that helping others uplifting them, teaching them with kindness and sparking their interests theirs spark of life to want to learn and make new discoveries to innovate but remember what I said about the healing spell Tender Care is trying to replicate. I can already see multiple ways to use it as a weapon. It's a double edged sword. Buck give me a rock and telekenetic magic grasp and enough time to learn and adapt and I'd probably figure out how to accelerate the rock towards somepony at deadly speeds that it would be lethal to almost anything but even if I can doesn't mean I should. I am no Grogar or even Sombra. Yes I can cause maybe even worse pain then them but I care about ponies. I have ethics and honestly I do not want to spoil the peace my aunties have built. Because I know what that would bring and I don't want to see it. I don't think I even have the right too." Henry said emotionally shaking his ears and tail moving rapidly as Philomena climbed on his head and the bat layed on his back.
"I do not know what to say I'm probably sounding completely insane and from whatever point of view you look at the situation it is insane. But I will tell you something to think of whether Its a form of insanity or not I've been able to heal somepony when my magic should be the strength of a foal. And understand that magic wasn't a resource I had before."Henry said but as he was about to continue talking Tender care barged in the room completely excited holding the scrolls Henry wrote.

Celestia her gaze shifted to Tender Care" Tender care, Why have you barged into a private meeting is something the matter?" Celestia asked in a motherly tone.

"No well Yes your highness. It's about Prince Blueblood his notes he gave me." Tender Care said trying to hold back her excitement.

Celestia kindly smiled at Tender care trying not to show her worries about her nephew."Well then Tender Care what has my nephew's notes thaught you?" Celestia calmly asked while periodically hazing towards Henry.

"Our prince isn't insane his healing magic was potent way too potent and precise. I've never seen anything like it. I've used the explanation on how the body attacks foreign objects in the sick bay for ponies or other illnesses after the basic test with his methods was done. It worked out so precisely and It didn't even use much magic with this knowledge those not talented in magic could help ponies in emergencies it even could reconnect detached limbs. Who knows what more he wonders he gleamed in his situation" Tender Care said completely esatic causing the other mares in the room to look in shock at the mostly calm Tender Care. But their shock was quickly broken by a deep laughter. The mares quickly moved their attention to the source of the sound but it quickly died down.

Henry noticed the mares looking at him after he had a laughing fit after realising what the results of his understanding of medical science and biology ment. All but Tender Care looked at him nervously then he smiled at her. The flicker of ambition in her eyes was only a small ember compared to the blazing inferno in his own but he continued smiling and then spoke.
"I'm sorry I just can't help but admire a fellow determined soul you gleamed a bit of what I know and just like any smart pony you already seek to use it to improve others their lives rather then harming them. It warms my heart to do something familiar again but you should be wary with knowledge. You might have not ment it but you taught me whatever knowledge I hold if it originated can be replicated and worse of all you taught me about how simple it is to replicate. Now even if I might not be the most sound pony of mind I'd be a bad if I told you not to be careful with what It. I want to better ponies their lives and love the enthusiasm, determination and happiness in your eyes Tender but as anypony with power I need to think of others their well being. So please do not experiment with it. I'd rather not see any of the subjects harmed. If permitted I will explain more in detail of what I know I am planning to use my knowledge and it's kind of poetic justice that it comes from either a poison induced dream or delusion or on the other hoof a species of dreamers. Considering I am to use it to undo the harm and make Dartmoor a haven for auntie Luna her Bat ponies and all those who would look out at the world and want to make the stuff of dreams real." Henry said sounding like a inspiring leader. His sincerity causing the first wary then confused and now worried mares in the room to calm and smile.

Both Celestia and Luna stepped to Henry with a tender smile and Celestia was the first to speak "You might not be sane of mind but we see you care for our subject Bluey." Celestia said in a kind motherly voice.

"Thou said thou believes that corruption is within the domain thou manages and thou said thou cares for our subject Nephew but what would thou do if what thou thinks is true?" Luna asked only to be met with a worrying glance from Henry.

"That depends really I care about ponies their well being but I care for others races too. My plan was to use the bond of shares suffering the possible captives have to form a unity and mixing knowledge of those who reside there. As for those who are corrupt it depends what they do if it is slavery and nothing worse I will make their fate depend on their transgression. But without to many words I will handle the situation and try to make the best of it. But I shall not stand idly by which is why I stated if you don't agree to aid me I'd break all ties to royalty not to distance from you but so my actions would not harm you two politically. Since being a member of royalty holds responsibilities and rules one must abide. Before you ask how would one weakened insane seeming pony harm possible slavers or corruption I'd cleanse them in a river of blood and turmoil if I have too. One guilty conscience is worth the prosperity of others and if you wonder if I'd be capable of it you need only glance at the results of Tender Care or maybe ask my two guards to report on how far my mind wanders and observes." Henry said calmly.

Spellslinger calmly spoke "Well we could give our full report of the week even before your little incident but you said you didn't want to hear that. ." Spellslinger said but got interrupted by Henry "Yeah no. I'm going through enough. I got too much to do and way to little time." Henry blurted at the idea of sitting through their entire report of Blueblood his actions even from before the incident.

Celestia looked at Henry with a disapproving scowl "Still impatient and trying to get out of your work nephew?"She asked disapprovingly.

Henry looked at Celestia "No auntie I." Henry quickly noticed he was responding like a little colt and calmly spoke again. "I merely have to prepare no matter what choice you make concerning my situation I'll need to learn and train myself so I do not bother our subjects or my aunties too much. I've got a duty. I know it's hard to understand and I seem like a mad pony but even so I got a duty and lessons of life even if that live might have and me as I am now is a side effect of the attempt at my live. But that doesn't mean the lessons from that life don't apply it made me who I am now." Henry said nervously under Celestia her gaze. I know violence isn't in her nature but that scowl and the intonation of her question shit. She controls the freaking sun and it feels like I've done something I shouldn't like I got caught stealing the entire cookie jar by somepony probably more powerful then multiple nukes Henry thought nervously and partly frightened.

Celestia have a soft smile and tenderly asked "Nephew what are those lessons? Why do they make you want to avoid hearing the report?" Celestia said as she softly at Henry who was nervous and wrapped her wing around him to calm him down giving the bat on his back a happy snug place to hide causing it to squeek happily.

The wing hug calmed Henry and caused him to smile a tender honest smile"There would be to many to tell but there are two lessons life have thaught me that I'll never forget."Henry said emotionally as he remembered two moments in his life that stuck with him and he let out a few tears "The first story might not seem much to you kindness, tenderness and care is common in Equestria but not where it happened. It was a normal week day. I was head of IT for a company near a grocery store I had just left the building where I worked and outside I saw an elderly lady carrying two heavy bags now this is a normal sight nobody cares much about the well being of a stranger on the street." Henry said reminiscing everypony in the room looked at him in shock.
"I myself saw her struggling even if I just came from a rather irritating day of work but before I could over the old lady any help she fell from the weight of her groceries. I quickly rushed closer and asked if she was alright and needed help. She looked at me with surprise and tears in her eyes I helped her up and supported her wobbly legs till she could stand on her own. She was overcome with emotions that she was crying. I simply comforted her and asked her if she needed any help if I she was hurt or if she needed help with her groceries . She was taken aback by this. As I said kindness, compassion and helping eachother is something that is not to common there. The old lady said she wasn't hurt and said she didn't want to bother me that I had done enough but I calmly looked at her and said I had just gotten of work and that I didn't need to be anywhere. And that I couldn't just see her attempt at carrying the rest of the heavy bags on her own. It isn't how I was brought up in that life. My grandmother raised me. I told her that I couldn't in good conscience let her carry those bags so I took her bags which weren't to heavy for me and stood next to the old lady so she could support on me after her previous fall. We walked for a while time towards her home and we talked. She told me she lived alone and her children and grandchildren lived far away and that nopony ever tried to help her. She said she only came out for groceries and was lonely if not for her dog she would have moved to a old people's home." Henry said tears in his eyes. "We arrived at her house it was one of the larger houses in the town of where I worked. She opened the door and I helped put her groceries inside put them where she told me they had to go after I asked and even pet her little dog. After I was done she handed me well let's say bits so you can follow. I refused them and said that just her being alright and the smile and of course petting the sweet little dog was more then enough. She offered me a drink I said it wasn't needed and the old lady said it would make her happy so I reluctantly accepted. I then thought of what she said before living all alone in that house and hardly coming out and felt sorry for her. She came with two beers one for her and me now I normally don't drink alcohol I enjoy it but I only drink it at festivities or special occasion. We talked alot about her live and hobbies. She said she used to be a bartender when she was young and missed socialising. I listened on about her tales and history of the town I worked in and she then pointed at an old large broken radio it had previously gotten my interest and she noticed. She told me it was something she had gotten from her late husband and used to stand in her bar. Now we continued talking and laughing till it became late so I have her a way to contact me since I don't think Equestria has the equivalent of a phone number and said if she ever needed help with her groceries or wanted company she could call. After that we meeted up a lot. We sometimes sat and talked or baked together. After a while we went outside to the bars in the town where I worked. We drank laughed but I was never allowed to pay for myself she always forced the ultimatum of leaving if I dared pay for myself I felt guilty for having her pay. After a while other elderly people and some of my friends joined our little group. We drove or walked around having fun. The elderly people we met while with her became our friends. My younger friends and me were quickly treated like their grandchildren it was something unexpected but oh the wisdom, fun and tales of them and just taking it slow enjoying time with them was the best moments of my weeks. We even drove them to see their children and grandchildren. We were treated as family and the happiness and smiles on their faces I can't describe how much that was worth. It sometimes became a habit to visit the old lady her abode during lunch breaks at work. Still whenever I think back I'm happy that lonely old lady for the joy she brought and to watch her socialize and enjoy life once more it still brings me to tears" Henry said emotionally crying.

Everypony in the room looked at him now not with shock but a kind smile.

Celestia looked at Henry "Continue Nephew." She said kindly.

Henry smiled and nodded. "It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows for that old lady I remember she had to be hospitalised a few months after one of our fun moments in a bar with other elderly people singing songs and talking. She was worried about her dog and her house so I offered to take care of her house and dog. Now I did that but also did more. I remembered her old big wooden radio and the songs she loved. So with some of the other elderly who taught my younger friends and I alot we fixed up her old radio in secret. The old lady her family knew about the suprise for her and decided to drive her home from the hospital. Where the entire gang was waiting and surprised her. It was my idea but we all agreed we had to show that kind old lady just how much she ment to us. When she arrived she was in tears to see us all there. We had prepared her favourite meals for her and as last suprise for her we put on the vinyl record of her favourite song in that radio and the pure joy on her face will always stick with me. I told her about how much she means to us and her response left me embarrassed. She compared me to an angel that God had sent. Now I am not the most religious or saintly person but hearing that from her brought tears to my eyes. And even till this day I think about how it all started how a random uncommon act of kindness brought out that much joy." Henry said in a emotionally strained voice as he dried his eyes.

The mares in the room stared at him and smiled and teary eyed. Celestia just looked at Henry "I can see why she called you that. When you were a small colt you used to be called a little angel. I understand why you don't want to hear of your actions before the incident." Celestia said with a smile drying some of her own tears while making the wing hug more snugger and the other mares stepped closer looking as they dried their tears. Even if it's just insanity induced by the poison his mind lived an other live. I hope he will be able to adapt. The only good thing is that the lessons he learned but he is scared that the memories of his foalhood which according to him have manifested in a split personality will make him lose himself more. I'll need to ask Luna to help him calm his mind and if it truly is possession holding the shambles of what was my nephew intact then I will have to help him. Either what has happened to him he needs help. Celestia thought as she kept wing hugging Henry.

Henry just looked at Celestia "That I used to have that nickname here is just a coincidence. Still thank you for understanding. Sorry thinking I left them behind if it was real is well a sad thought. But it's out of my control. All I can do is prepare and ensure that the land I manage flourishes so if I regress into the mental state of a foal that He won't have to deal with the troubles caused by the our previous mistakes." Henry said sounding tired and worried but then sighs. "Which is why I must deal with the current situation at hoof. I'd rather have time to loiter and laugh or play with the animals or enjoy the company of others but I can't do that in good conscience. Now that I told you why can auntie Lulu maybe effect my dreams to include books on magic since if you agree with allowing me to weed out the seeds of corruption I think are in my domain I would leave at early light." Henry said calmly.
Maybe calling her Lulu was to much. I hope she isn't angry. Henry thought

Celestia stopped the wing hug causing the bat that was enjoying being in-between Henry his back and the warm wing of Celestia to squeek in protest. While Luna looked embarrassed at the nickname only causing Celestia to snicker a bit before Luna regained composure.

"So thou aren't planning to let this go nephew? Luna asked worryingly.

Henry just raised his head and looked Luna straight in her eyes "Sorry I'm as a stubborn as a mule " He said jokingly

Spellslinger and Midnight snickered at Henry his comment.

"Your highness you said there were two lessons you took heart can we hear the other one?" Tender asked expectantly if not to make a psychological profile of Henry then to wonder what more wisdoms he could impart.

"I'm sorry Tender I can't thinking to much about it hurts. Either it was all in my mind or I got plucked away from my world, family and friends. I rather not put myself through such torture." Henry replied causing Tender her ears to droop and her expression to turn apologetically.

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have asked that. Most stallion's would already be breaking down. But you act so openly about it." Tender said.

"That doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. I talk about it because I don't want to leave you in the dark. It's hard to speak about it believe me. But I trust you and hope you don't speak of it to anypony. And please promise me something if I seem to become a danger to others or worse. I want you to ensure I do not harm anypony and that you do whatever it takes if it comes to it. I'm in a semi right mind now but if I'm not later I'll need a fail safe." Henry replied seriously.

Both Celestia and Luna seemed to understand why somepony would ask such a promise. Even if it isn't an easy thing to follow. The mares in the room looked at eachother then at Henry and nodded. And mimicked the motions of a Pinkie promise.

Meanwhile in Ponyville Bakery

Pinkie was first jolly giving Derpy some muffins for on the road. When her Body went wonky because of her Pinkie sense and she had a big smile as he handed Derpy her muffins and bounced back into the kitchen of the bakery.

Back in Canterlot Castle.

Henry smiled at the mares "Thank you. You don't know how much you making a Pinkie promise puts me at ease. Now I better get to training and preparing." Henry said as he trotted towards the door.

Luna quickly trotted towards him "Nephew we haven't given thou an answer why would thou go prepare? And why art thou so driven to do this?" Luna asked as she stopped Infront of the exit of the room blocking Henry his way.

Henry calmly smiled "I told you already no matter what you decide I have to ensure the best for the ponies under my responsibility even if my mind might get affected. It's literally stamped on my flank. You might not understand but a cutie mark can have multiple meanings. And mine can be interpreted as many things. Where my current personality came from it can symbolise a lot like guidance, orientation, independence, Safety , protection, traveling since it's a compass star and the word com the Latin word meaning togheter and passus meaning journeying togheter not just in the literal meaning of journeys but paths in life and choices we make but that isn't the most important meanings it holds. The most important meanings it holds are Luck motivation and inspiration. Luck for it will guide a lost creature to where it needs to be. Motivation because it helps one move and show you and others the way to keep going and last but not least inspiration for it always A compass shows the path north which symbolises progress and innovation. Or did you think the saying things going south when things go bad was but a way of words auntie." Henry said with a smile.

Luna was shocked by the words Henry used but she remembered the symbolism of a compass but then Celestia spoke interrupted in a kind voice.

"Those are the meaning of a compass but a the compass star has other meanings aswell nephew." Celestia said with a kind knowing smile.

"Sister art thou accepting his behaviour?" Luna replied

"I don't sister I would prefer our nephew would be kept under guard and not act so foalish and stubborn but he has made his points. Even if we try to stop him I fear he might just escape and do what he desires anyway" Celestia replied giving a knowing glance at Henry.

"Auntie Tia is right. I would attempt to escape." Henry said rubbing his head causing Philomena to fly to Celestia while the little Bat still remains relaxing on Henry his back.

Luna just stared at Henry "But thou art not well. Thou should see this is foalish." Luna said sounding like a stern mother.

Henry just laughs "As I said I'm stubborn. And well what happens happens. I'm far from a perfect role model and if I do regress into a foal or my mind alters further I do hope some of my less favourable traits won't end up remaining. I might be kind to many but I can be a rather big risk when angry which is why your promise from before means a lot to me." Henry said and then he glanced at Tender care "Tender while Midnight and Spellslinger give their report could you stay with me I know you aren't a soldier or guard but It would be better to have somepony keep an eye on me whilst I am going to ramp up the training to regain my strength and having a medical professional nearby would be best. Considering no matter what they decide the training will happen." Henry said before trying to leave the room but Celestia asked a question that caught him off guard.

"Bluey why are you so driven even if you hold some knowledge or are a mixture of my nephew and what creature got pulled from his home. Why are you so driven and what do you plan to accomplish?" Celestia asked kindly sounding like a tender mother watching over a child giving a knowing undertone of worrying care for the wellbeing of said child.

"I'm so driven because of the what there is to learn and to teach others. Sure I want to build Dartmoor into a revolutionary power house but it's not just for myself as I stated before I love to see the spark of passion in the eyes of others. So I am driven for if I do what I can with the knowledge and limited understanding of the few things I have. I can spark a flame of cooperation and innovation which first will be a used to burn out the roots of corruption and seed the desire to learn and dream. To see how things work to advance and learn. It's a normal instinct for what I was during the poison induced state. For they are a species of dreamers sure they can make what you probably would see as miracles happen without magic but they could also bring the stuff of nightmares." As Henry said this everypony but Celestia flinched. "My goal is to use the knowledge and also look at the knowledge of the past and magic. I want to make Dartmoor and it's residents embody dreaming, creativity and ingenuity. I think it's kind of poetic and I wish to use magic it's flexibility and all other races who would make it their home to create a golden age of innovation, cooperation and harmony. We need only look at the past at the tale of the friendship fire to see what wonders can be created using cooperation. And if I truly am possessing or co inhabiting your nephews body causing the personality you see before you what better place to make then a place where dreams , innovation and cooperation is the centre of it all. Even if my knowledge fades or my personality would be affected much more it would lay the bedrock for a safe haven and the possibility to undo what has been done even partly and even if that doesn't happen the lessons I hold if I were to fade could be taught to the foal I hear within my mind so he might learn and grow into a wise stallion. In any of those cases if you help me or not Dartmoor it's revitalisation is key. And when a stable income is created to continue to fuel the fire of cooperation and innovation then I will no longer need to hoard my knowledge like a dragon does with it's treasure. And it would be up to those who come after me to do with as they must. Through innovation comes prosperity and through abundance and prosperity comes luxury. Enabling others to be lifted up to follow their own talents in more ambitious approaches which will if build on cooperation and friendship would make improvements bettering others their lives beyond even your wildest dreams and when they look back to how it all started they won't look at me their ambitions and new way to view the world will make them run off and continue onwards. Of course I'll teach them what I can warn them of certain dangers as I did with Tender Care but when a kid sees a rainy puddle only a blind mother would pull the foal away for not jumping in it. For the spark of curiosity dims everytime it's denied. And a mistake many make is denying others that exploration and the ability to learn on their own. It is better to let them learn from their actions and mistakes so that spark of curiosity remains for a quote I hold to heart says What is a scientist if not a adult who hasn't lost his childish curiosity. And it's true in so many ways for those who still carry that spark of curiosity are the movers and shakers of the world by the knowledge they uncover and share with others." Henry said calmly while smiling.

Celestia also had a pleasant smile on her face as she is a teacher and leader to many she recognised the truths behind Henry his words. The other mares in the room just looked in shock once more it started to strangely become natural to Henry causing Celestia and him to laugh. "Nephew I might not know what happened to your mind but you aren't in a wrong mind. I see you aren't acting foalish but thinking far ahead like your ancestors dreaming for the betterment of everypony it does make me wonder were you a teacher in the state the poison caused?" Celestia asked with a hopeful smile.

"Not really. I did help others with little things and enjoyed helping kids with fun little projects during my down time but no I wasn't but I always shared my interests with others and some might call me that but I've learned more from others then I have taught. But life is like that an endless wave of lesson's past even the days of youth. But I really got to go now I need to use the time I have since depending on your decision I still must ensure I can do what I have to do. Come along Tender Care I'm going to put myself through rigorous strain during my training so it would be best if you were near incase of an accident." Henry said before leaving the room quickly followed by Tender Care leaving both the Princesses and guards to discuss their report on Blueblood for that week even before the poison incident and afterwards.

Author's Note

Sorry if it took long for this chapter I never got it a hundred percent like I wanted. I hope everypony enjoys it. I've reread it multiple times and tried my best to ensure it isn't to bad but well English isn't my main language.
