The Terrarian Sun and Moon
Rebirth of the draconequus
Previous ChapterNext ChapterThe two spirits raced outside the city, morphing back into their humanoid forms. Their wings gracefully let them hover, and they thought about the situation at hand.
The thing is, they felt as soon as they entered this realm that there was an unbalance, this one being between harmony and chaos. This may not seem to be a bad thing, but every time the scale gets to weighted on one side, it will have to equalize itself, and it cannot take weight away from one side. This means that it can only add weight to the other side. The scale will only do this if the keepers of the balance do not fix it fast enough. The keeper of this realm was nowhere to be found, and chaos was only imprisoned and contained in this world, taking away its chaotic aspect.
The two spirits knew this well, and they knew that they had to equalize the scale. They had an idea on how to do it, but they would need to combine their efforts in a way they hadn't ever done before.
"So, do you think we can do it, Sol?" Asked Mon, worrying of the bad things that could happen.
"I believe so. You can control the Corruption and I will control the Hallow. With their combined abilities, we should be able to remake the chaos in this world." Sol responded, looking for an area to start.
"Okay then. If you think we can, then I will try. I think I found an area by this forest." Mon said, looking off into a distance and pointing a shadow finger towards a dank forest.
"Ah, yes. I believe, if what I have read is true, that is the Everfree forest. I think its one of the only chaotic placed in this world. Yes, that would help very much, as that will give energy to the biomes." Sol said, wondering how to enact the plan.
"It shouldn't be hard. We are reviving a race, a small amount of them at that, so we won't need that much space. That, and they have not only the land, but above them as well. Although a strange chimeric species, they are resourceful."
"Then we must start bordering. I'll start the half sphere for the Hallow, you do the same for the corruption. We shall use a glass wall to separate the two halves. Your side will be farthest from the settlement, and mine will be closest. That way we will both be near the chaos center in some way. Now, let's get to work!" Exclaimed Sol, and the two spirits connected their minds and went to work, using pearlstone bricks and demonite bricks respectively.
It was night time when they landed.
Canterlot. The royal palace.
"Sister, the two are building some sort of sphere near the Everfree forest." Luna reported.
"You mean a half sphere." Celestia replied, feeling as though she corrected Luna.
"No, I mean a sphere. They brought out a tool of some kind and cut into the dirt and place bricks there. They haven't finished that yet, but it seems to be circular."
"It still could be a half sphere." Celestia said, then giggled.
"That is beside the point..." Luna complained. "What is though, is that I have noticed they have some kind of liquid in their possession. The containers hold an unlimited amount of a strange liquid. I feel the containers themselves are strange, but the liquids seem to be excreting a shadowy force and a bright force. The first for a purple one, the second for a blue one."
"What are they doing with them?"
"Let me check once more." Luna said, and walked off.
Celestia waited in here room patiently for Luna to return. She had no idea why Luna liked privacy when she performed divination with the moon, but she didn't really mind. Luna eventually came back into the room, confused.
Luna straightened herself, and spoke. "They have already finished the half sphere," Celestia giggled at the word, knowing she was right. "But now they seem to be building a type of castle walls around it. Half of it one color, half the other color. That, and there is a clear thick glass wall dividing it into two sections." Luna explained, then found herself in deep thought once again.
"That is strange, they are building a kingdom from the ground up, literally, and they are doing it in such a short time." Celestia stated, and snapped Luna out of her thinking gaze.
"Sorry, Tia, but the shadowy one had started covering the ground in his area with the purple water. The light one doing the same with the blue water. The grass seems to be changing with it, showing signs of light and dark, and a passive chaotic war. I believe this needs to be investigated." Luna stated, but Celestia did nothing, just thought.
"Now." Luna said, a bit louder. Celestia remained silent. "By us, the guards wouldn't be able to do anything, we could." This snapped Celestia out of her thought, looking at Luna with a worried face.
"Okay then Luna. We shall go. I hope nothing to bad is going on, but these two showed us what they could do, so I feel we need to search this ourselves as well." Celestia said, and got up off the bed she was laying on.
Celestia walked over to the balcony, and Luna followed her. They both silently took off towards the place the event was happening, accelerating faster and faster out of worry.
Near the Everfree forest.
The two spirits had finished the two biomes, and came up to the glass wall. They looked at each other, and started speaking.
"Have you finished the Corruption?" Sol asked.
"Yes, and you, the Hallow?" Mon asked back. Sol nodded.
"Yes, yes, but there is a more pressing matter at hands. Have you noticed the divination from the moon? Or did it go away with the sun."
"No, it is still there, but I don't think there is anything we should do about it. We have nothing to hide." Mon said. Sol smiled.
"Exactly what I was thinking. Now, do we have enough energy for the procedure?"
"Yes we do, I have actually already started it. We had enough DNA from the universe to make it all random. There will not be a single draconequus that is similar!" Mon said excitedly. Sol just rolled his eyes playfully.
That was when the two princesses came into earshot. Sol knew that they could hear and see much farther than any other spirit, due to the mixing of terrarian and spirit DNA, so he sighed, and turned to face them, right before they landed.
Right onto the Corruption.
"Mon, stop the corrupting of the spirits, we don't want any trouble with this empire." Sol asked, and Mon nodded his head and quickly fixed the problem. Sol and Mon then forced some of their energy into them, making them immune to the affect of the biomes.
"WHAT HAS THOU TRIED TO DO TO US!?" Luna yelled in her royal Canterlot voice. Of course, this didn't even phase the spirits. Luna coughed, then regained her posture. "I mean, what did you do to us?!" She said again. She still yelled, just not as loud.
"We are doing something that you have rejected to do, and with it stopping something to drastic from happening." Sol said calmly, and waited for their responses.
"What do you mean more drastic?" Celestia said, curiosity peaking over worry for her nation.
"And what do you meen rejected to do?" Luna added, more crossly, not bothering to show any respect.
Mon turned to Luna. They were all face to face now, only 10 meters apart from each other. Mon was next to Sol, in front of Luna, and Sol was in front of Celestia. "We would answer you, but we will ignore annoyed and dis respective attitude."
Luna started fuming at this, she was to used to being respected without question, and wanted to hit him for being so defiant. Sol turned to Celestia, ignoring Luna with Mon. "We mean that we are balancing the scale, before it does so itself." Sol simply said, and followed for his brother to get to work on what they were doing. Mon nodded, and went far deep into the purple grassed area. "Oh and I assure you, it was your fault for stepping into the Corruption." Sol added, and walked off.
The princesses flied after them, doing everything to get their attention to continue to questioning. They even went right in front of them, only to be pushed back up by the grass itself. The sisters were completely confused by this, and needed to question it.
"How did the grass do that?" Celestia asked.
"It is a living thing. This is a biome, a type of nature held area like a mountain or forest, but living and active." Mon responded, then raised up to a very shadowy and evil looking temple made of demonite bricks. The sisters hesitated, but followed behind the two brothers. Mon's hands started to glow of a dark essence, and a creature Mon dubbed as an eater of souls rose from the ground. One more followed it, and floated near the entrance.
"You are not to enter as we do what we need to. We don't want to be bombarded with questions, and you will no doubt object. This has to happen, and you won't get in our way." Mon said, then walked into the temple, followed by Sol.
The princesses tried to fly in after them, but were stopped by the soul eaters. "GET OUT OF OUR WAY!!!" Luna shouted. The soul eaters didn't flinch. Luna was fed up with this. She wanted to know what was going on, and this creature got in her way. She had enough of the disrespect.
She shot a beam at it.
The creature noticed quickly that it was being attacked, and closed all of its eyes except for one in the front, and rose up a few feet. It's tendrils on it's end started sending off vibrations. They were sent back into the ground, and 10 more soul eaters rose up from the ground. 2 very big versions of soul eaters rose from the ground. A corruptor, as Mon yelled from the temple. The brown creatures floated to the entrance, and moved the soul eaters aside and took their place. The 12 soul eaters then sent more vibrations to the princesses, saying something.
"Do not attack again. We are to protect the temple, and if you try to break in once more, you will be punished to the extent of the darkness."
It was a dark tone. A warning one, but an evil one. The princesses stepped back, but the soul eaters didn't move. They seemed more at peace than anything, in fact. Celestia remained silent in this, she knew that Luna was much more powerful in this are than her, she could sense it. She didn't know how, but she didn't want to guess.
Luna, however, marched back up to the eaters. "Do you know who I am? I am one of the rulers of this land! Princess of the night! You will move aside!" She yelled, not as loud, due to shock, but with the same force. The eaters did nothing. The princess growled in frustration and shot another beam at them. One of them moving in front of it, and ate the beam. Literally. The princess was in complete shock at this, but then shock turned into anger, then anger turned into fear. She backed away slowly, glaring at the creature that caught her beam.
It charged. Three more with it. They all went for Luna, ignoring Celestia. Big mistake, Celestia shot a light beam at one, and it was completely destroyed. 2 of them in the force ran towards Celestia, while one of them charged at Luna.
Right when the soul eaters were about to reach them, they disintegrated into the ground, and a worm as thick as their legs shot from the ground, an eye on each segment. One worm was destroyed by Celestia's beam, but the other wrapped around Celestia's body, and another did the same to Luna. The worms wrapped up and around their horns, making them unable to use their magic and wings. The princesses were stunned, and were helpless. The worms rose out of the ground more, and located a purple leaved tree in the thick forest in the Corruption, and flung the princesses towards it.
The princesses themselves didn't go very far, and regained balance in the air, but decided waiting it out would be best. If these things could just be remade with the essence of the Corruption, there was no point.
Inside the temple, the two spirits marveled at what they had created, ignorant slightly to the commotion outside. They marveled at the beings as they flew out of the temple from the bottom. 200 of them.
"And thus marks the new draconequus species and empire!" Mon said proudly, and Sol nodded to him.
"Yes, one step to balance is complete."
The two spirits watched as the new chimeric species flew from the temple onto the ground, playing with each other in the corrupt forest. The two spirits smiled to each other, and made their way to the glass wall.
