The so-called 'zombie animals' found in the Everfree forest are in fact infected with a parasitic lifeform not in any known records. Assumed to be extra-dimensional. We have had great success with synthesizing pesticides that are capable of killing it. However, I recommend we keep samples of this parasite alive. I would very much like to study this specimen further.

Your request has been granted, however, I would like to remind you that the AMICA is devoted to protection, not personal projects, and therefore we cannot afford to waste resources on studying dead ends, so to speak. You are going to be on a very short leash with this one, and if I do not see results, I will terminate the project.

Doctor: "Who? Who spoke to you? How?"

"Granite: "They told me I could not die. Not until I told you. They told me to tell you something doctor."

'The bed creaks as Granite reaches a hoof out towards doctor Synapse.'

Doctor: "What did they tell you?"

Granite: "They said to tell Twilight something. Something important. Something she has to hear. Can you keep a secret?"

Doctor: "Of course."

Granite: "I don't mean you. Can you keep a secret? Good."

Doctor: "Who are you speaking to right now?"

Granite: Tell Twilight. Tell her. Tell her it's the key. It's the key to everything. The only key that matters. It opens all doors and passages. It will let her see. Tell her. Please. When the time is right, she'll know. What. It...."

Commander Summers- This agent is far too valuable to lose to mental degradation. Request permission to administer amnesiacs and enroll in the program as soon as possible.

[Classified]- Granted. And the others?

Commander Summers- A pilot who can survive aerial combat with a dragon for any amount of time is a rarity. But to actually wound it? I want this pilot. And perhaps one or two of the other survivors.

Classified- Your request is duly noted, and granted. I hope you find them of use.

Commander Summers- Every asset is of use to me. It is the scale of their use that we shall have to determine.
