But before they could go a step further, a hooded figure came to them emitting a creepy howling. Fluttershy and Antoine jumped on Knuckles arms. Rainbow had the courage to confront that thing,

Rainbow: "You think that a hood and some bellows could scar me"

The pegasus flew to the figure taking his robe, under it was an old echidna.

Knuckles: "An echidna? How is possible?"

?: I always be a bad actor. I am Nestor. You haven't nothing to fear with me. I swear it!

Knuckles: Impossible you couldn't be Nestor the Wise?

Nestor: "Nestor the Wise That's interesting I'll have to write that down."

Knuckles: Nestor was the most famous echidna healer, counselor and historian. His chronicles are a legend

Nestor: "I suppose I should be honored! Though I certainly don't feel like a legend! Ha!"

Twilight: "The Twilight Cage, this is the name of this dimension."

Pinkie: "Ha ha ha! This place has the same name of you Twily!"

Nestor: "I suppose that you're ponies"

Applejack: "That's correct folk."

Nestor: "Ix blame the ponies for brought him here, the Nocturnus Clan swore revenge against of your kind. Them took the control of this system enslaving the inhabitants of the planets. I was exiled for speaking out against his attitude. And I got off easy. But I heard that the kron were mounting a rebellion against Ix."

Fluttershy: "The kron?"

Nestor: "Rocky aliens, are harmless if you know how deal with them. If I were in your place, I would going back from where I come."

Sally: "We can't. First, we haven't way to return, second, me must find the chaos emerald."

Nestor: "A chaos emerald here, mmm. So the rumours are true, each planet has a factory where the Nocturnus manufacture their weapons and else technology, and each factory in energized by a crystal"

Rainbow: "But is only an emerald"

Sally: "Probably that guy Ix used the original to make copies."
