Disharmony and changed fates

One year and a half after Marksaline and Fluffle Puff came into Celestias and Cadance life, did a lot change. For example did Cadance made a with the help of the Solar and Lunar Guard a picture book with all kind of pony coitus position's and even give out invitation's to other citizen of other races the chance to contribute.
Abesinian get excluded.
Cadance made a friend with a unicorn mare that helped her a lot to make her passion project very detailed. Cadance / Hearts Desire had wondered about one third of the content, but her friend with benefits Crystal Heart Bug had made a mindblowing job.
Her friend had a large social network and that was spanning to her surprises all kind of creatures. This 'Exotic Sutra' as they named it, was selling like no book before. The general Dictionary not counting. Cadance made jokes about her becoming the future 'Princess of Friendship with Benefits' she only laughed at that and told Cadance to leave the Princess stuff to others than herself.
That slightly dissapointed her.
Cadance was also learning many languages in record time. Almost as if she took up a hobby from long ago and her remembering it...
She would be a greater Ambassador for it.

Celestia had become a sharper leader. Surprisingly did the Nobels seem to avoid her and rather spend money for representatives to waste Celestia time in court with ideas that are obsolet or down right stupid. Surprisingly did that allow for many more applicants to come before Celestia. She managed almost double the audiance's, while having the weekends to herself.
Also half the paperwork seem to lessen rather than increase more to this point. Apparently giving finds out for wasting valuable time with unnecessary long request without head and tail helped a lot. Raven Inkwell reinforced the new refined measures with unpresidented glee and efficiency. Celestia started to call her Princess of Paperwork. Raven just called Celestia Princess of Cakes as retort. Their friendship grow bigger with time.
Fluffle Puff started to become smarter and her playful nature lead her to more creativ and random jokes that seem to be out of anyone's context.
What was concerning, when Fluffle Puff started to make drawing of herself and Marksaline, did Discords statue apper to be hiding in all her pictures. Some as subtile as he being hidden in a tree or being on walls or the ceiling. Sometimes in Marksaline shadows.
When asking the royal garden patrols for sightings, did they reported that Marksaline and Fluffle Puff alongside the Necromancer of Light members seem to like to picknick near the Chaos gods statue.
Nopony seem to want to reinforce the clearing of the 20 meter restricted area outside of brief visiting groups for educational purposes and some artist making picture or miniatur statue copys of Discord.
When Celestia a day later left court early to join for a picknick in the royal Gardens, did she feel a presents she feared for most her life. To her surprise did it was no longer in any form radiating malices waves or as mutch as a unpleasent sensation.
Rather it feeled welcoming. As if she visited the grave of a long lost friend.
Celestia confronted Discord statue the coming night and discovered something unexpected. Discord was actually free. He just posed as statue for reasons he would not disclose to her.
He told Celestia that he was freed by Fluffle Puff. Since than they kinda become playmates. Marksaline might have tried to eat him ones or twice for real, when he took playtime with her sister away, but they become a lot more friendly since he keep feeding her with special Candy.
Before Celestia could go full on Solar Nova on him, did he told her something that give her pause.
He was more content with having a familie of his chosing, than being alone and unlimited in his actions. Acting so he would please his little girls was more entertaining, than turning the world into modern art.
Perchance Celestias daughters had been archiving the impossible. Giving sanity to a Spirit of Chaos.

With a huge event coming up, did things keep to change for the unexpected. The coming summening of all leaders of nations, a event that come at the least every 10 years.
They all seem to find a excuse to send a representative. Discord made their attendance mandatory with a individual snap of his Griffon Talon.
Also very unexpected was Discord insisting them all to play with Marksaline and Fluffle Puff. He did not explained why, but because they are fun to play with was a to weak of a excuse, did he insisted them playing around would greatly increase bonding among the different leaders.
Cadance friend a unicorn mare by the name Crystal Heart Bug was by Discords insistance, also a honored guest and playing with the fillys.
By the end of the summening event, seem they all to have been bonding with Marksaline and Fluffle Puff alongside with one another.
Beside the Abesinian Kingdom did most of the Nations rather unpleasent relations improved.
Perhaps next time... even the bipedal cats would become something more.
Also Cadance seem to take the assasination half a year ago tougher than Celestia herself.
Discord seem to mellow out with everycreature that joined Marksaline and Fluffle Puff playtime and mock devouring.
For but a moment did she wonder, if Marksaline and Fluffle Puff had done to him what they had to her... Filling their former empty heart with their presents.

Discord was having a blast. He spread disharmony and chaos, while noone noticed it and the Tree of Harmony would pretty mutch get a nervous break down soon enough.
Marksaline and Fluffle Puff alongside his chaos magic spread free will and a certain degree of Harmony magic resistance. With that the Tree of Harmony would lose its Pawn's and rather have very lose acquaintance's at best.
He would have his revenge against Harmony. It might have killed the old Discord, but this one had found a chaos crystal of all it's memorys.
The truth was so terrible that Discord wondered, if Harmony wasn't evil incarnated. Or that for some reason his chaos bring more balance than Harmony could ever archiving on its own. That was a tasteless joke he could only cringe on.

Discord discreatly lured non Canterlot population toward the Castle, where Fluffle Puff and Marksaline could make contact with them.
Just focusing his disharmony on leaders would make his manipulation and the very real and ice cold calculated counterstep to obvious.
When Harmony would be distracted with Equestria would he sneak into the other Kingdoms to spread Marksaline corrupting saliva into population water places.
Free will and resistance to Harmony magic would not be limited to Equestria of his area.
But his Equestria and it's connect counterparts would be treated first.
Discord dreaded that he would have bring uncontrolled order to this world. But the way he did it was chaotic enough, so it hurt him less than he feared...
What entertaining idea that he might fulfill the Scribt Harmony followed better, than his insane counterpartner. What better way to get revenge than making it's Project a reality on his terms. Perhaps giving this world back it's hope for a better tomorrow without the fear of Harmony destroying it. One mindcontrolled individual at a time...

Discord seem to geniuenly want to help Celestia. They way he did it was absolutly brilliant, but also born of lunacy... perhaps both are closer by nature than expected.
He would help get closure to the Royal families longest running drama. While he said he loved a good drama, was one without unexpected turn of events to cliche for him.
So he would do for them, what Harmony messed up. A resolution in the familie conflict almost a millenia ago.
First he give Cadance a idea of re-establisment of contact with the moon. They would build a city out of Lighthouses. Than they would use it to send light signals to the moon via mare code.
While the sister of Celestia seem to have only stones to make huge stone text messages, seem Discord to have even for that a resolution.
He would give Celestia a translation of the alien ships language and a way to restore it to a degree. Not to make it capable of returning it to Equus, but so they could answer back.
Celestia was confused about Discord willingness to give them a step by step guided path to their goal, but insisting Cadance and Celestia taking full credit for it and not so mutch as whisper a word of his involvment to anyone. Exception was Fluffle Puff, Marksaline, the Princesses among themself and him in the royal Garden when noone was around.
This project would absolutly have obliverated Equestrias economy unsupported, but Discord even had a solution for that.
What came out of nowhere was the fact that her mother Faust had apparently big cashes of materials and coins of different material hidden in places noone could find them without his help.
This was the first time Celestia hugged the stuffing out of Discord. Literally, what a silly chaos god...
Within 10 years would they hopefully re-established communications. Discord would not disclose any other steps, until that was archived.

Many nations suffered economy crisis do to one line of bad luck or the incompetence of some rulers or their nobel class.
Equestria would unexpectedly help them out.
High Princess Celestia of Equestria and Princess of snu-snu Cadance, helped other Nations out by giving eatch Nations a way to earn material and coin, that was rather badly to obtain in their individual Nation. While the coins lose some value over time, did the higher access to it increase economy stability.
Griffonia get to build fine modified lighthouses with expandable livingspace, while Minotauria supplied metalic raw material and rough blueprints. The Abesinian supply with sandglass, while Diamond Dog tribes mined manastones and gemstones such as rubies and sapphires.
This 'global' effort bounded the cooperative Nations. The only exception's seem to be the Yeti wasteland/Arctic Tundras and the Caribu Colony's.

Marksaline and Fluffle Puff improved with Discord as 'Godfather'. He insisted on the titel rather than father figure, because of the brilliant pun...
His special Candy keep Marksaline for half the day in a happy mood. It seem to give her time for self development and had the side effect to make Fluffle Puff less of a out of control fluffball of energy. Apparently Marksaline coming to her own seem to balance Fluffle Puff out. In turn did Fluffle Puff seem to help Marksaline to enjoy life more.
The Necromancer's of Light members seem to become less obsessive with them over time.
They seem to spread membership out to non magic user or practiconer's. Teaching philosophy of balanced life's and not to fear death of old age, but to embrace the gift of life, as long it would bless the individual.
Celestia really regreted having once upon a time planed to basicly mass murder their members for simply giving everyone and everything a fair chance. Redeeming over death sentance would be something the Sun Goddess would start to preach herself soon enough.
Not just because of her familie returning within the next three decades...
Celestia would never stop being a hypocritic, it seemed. But she would at least try to self improve in that regard.
Marksaline started to immitate her younger sisters speech patter even when she was more timid about it.
To everycreatures surprise did Fluffle Puff's random noises seem to have purpose. When one off duty guard followed the sisters around and write down their noises with patterns, did he see partial mare code in it. Two days later as if struck by random inspiration, did he added hoove languages and it's different accents to it.
Fluffle Puff an Marksaline where now understandable about half the time with the records.
Strange how the guard come to the idea and understand it, despite never completely having mastered the course.
Discord just gifted him a rainbow rose colored dinner that tasted like fishsticks with cheese toppings. For his guard's own random brilliant genius.
Celestia apointed the guard the duty of royal foal speech transcript and future translator, helping other to understand the foals to make their growing up smoother.
Author's Note
Hope you excuse my exploit of Discord, but taking adventures of a source that makes no sence to expect help from was to ironic that i could not resist. I shall keep his future actions be less direct.
Stay snuggly ![]()
