Salas shivered, trying to spark a flame that would not catch. His own ability to breath the fire that burned him, also was ment to save him. He looked at the emerald laying on the other side of the cave. The feeling of hate towards his mother was drowned the need to contact her. His body was undergoing strange bodily fluctuations, one moment he is as big as a mountain, another he's as small as his full blooded draconic friend.

It was a strange feeling, as he became closer to the ponies his body changed. It was nearing winter, it was also two weeks from the Grand Galloping Gala. He was made a suit that was made of silk, as most cloths that Rarity owned somehow left red lines on his body. They burned him, causing him to curl up when the pain got too great.

The suit was a lively white color matching Celestia's coat color with a deep emerald green undershirt and green gloves. When he looked at himself in the mirror, he almost smiled at how much he'd changed. His memories focused on the far bottom right of the mirror. He saw, standing behind the doorway of the room he was in, was Twilight. Why, he didn't know, but she was infact smiling at him.

A cool breeze in side the cave caused him to try clicking his jaw again, a small green flame burned the inside of his mouth as he tried to keep himself warm. He stood up, walking over to the crystal he would soon call his mother.

Picking it up, he threw it to the tree, muttering his mother's name, the crystal exploded showing his mother's face.

"M-mother!" He shouted with a stutter in his voice.

"Salas..." Her voice was much calmer than his. "It's been many days since we've last spoken."

Salas nodded, shivering loudly enough for his mother to hear it.

"You are weaker in the cold my son, not like your father and I...which causes me to question my ancestor's past transactions...."

"Mother...I need your blessings..." Salas bowed, and it was clear she felt his need. "Just some strength...please..."

She chuckled at his request. "Have you made peace with the ponies yet my son?"

"I-I....I've..." He struggled to find the right words. "Tried...I have made two or three friends. Fluttershy the Pegasus and the element of Kindness, Spike the Dragon, and Rarity the Unicorn and the element of Generosity."

She hummed for a moment, before her head nodded. "I see this now my wonderful son. I look inside your memories as we speak. As the connection between us are by blood and magic. And as your mother, I also see why you call me so close to winter's height. The cold harms you as like fire, and you struggle to find a perfect medium in a world at that either too hot or too cold."

"Mother, please..."

"I was getting to it!" She snapped. "Yes, I will bless you with warmth until seasons end for stepping so far from your greed and hate towards the rebirths of your captors."

"What do you mean? Rebirths of your captors?!" He asked. "Are you saying-"

"Yes, but their souls are in their fourth rebirth. They somehow saw the light after they died." The crystal began to shrink. "The line is weakening Salas. Please, I know I....grief...." The crystal shrunk down finally.

Salas, angered, threw his fists down on the ground as a light enveloped him. Warmth at last he screamed out at the top of his lungs.

"DAMMIT TO TARTARUS!!!!" His jaw clicked violently sending sparks flying through the air.

His wings erupted from his back as his entire body grew. "I TRUSTED THEM!!!" His voice grew deeper as his body threatened to suffocate the cave. His crawled out of the cave just as his tail could fit like a shoe of the walls. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Celestia shifted upright like a bullet, a horrifying scream woke her in her bed chambers. She threw her doors open to the balcony she often stood upon to look over all of Equestria. Far, deep in the middle of the Everfree Forest, stood what may have been Salas. His claws were the size of the spike on top her tower. His body, the size of Canterlot. Tinier screams below were of the town's panic, and she swore to herself.

"Tia!" Luna screamed, flying over. "Is that Salas? I thought he was struggling to move in his cave!"

"That is sister, and it seems as though the damn has broken..." Celestia sat down, her mouth agape. "Mother of me...Tartarus hath no fury upon the tormented soul of a dragon who lost his love..."

"And cities will burn far above..." Luna finished. "Sister, we must go and help the elements."

"R-right..." Celestia hesitated to stand. Far off everypony could see the giant with great blood red eyes that had flames pouring out of it from the sides.

Fire seemed to pour like liquid from his mouth as he screamed. "I TRUSTED YOU ALL!!!"

The princesses gasped before flying off. "Tia....we think he knows..."
