Edward and Twilight run out of the Illuminare Consortium panting heavily as they stop to catch their breath. Suddenly the street lights flicker as the nightclub is plunged into a complete blackout and Vivi is heard yelling very loudly.

"That was... An interesting encounter." Twilight comments before looking up at the starry night sky.

"Crowler is... A very acquired taste, normally he is harmless enough." Edward states looking up with Twilight.

The night sky is vividly clear with very few clouds around, even the moon is big and clear. Twilight can be heard sighing deeply as she marvels at it all.

"So, seeing as the nightclub is a bust, I suppose home is our destination?" Twilight asks glancing at Edward.

"Not exactly, the night is still young and there are a few places we could go." Edward states in reply as he begins to lead Twilight through the quiet student village.

Twilight looks around the student village as they walk past the various houses and shops which, during the day are more lively compared to the night.

"This village is very peaceful at night, reminds me of the many nights I spent walking around Ponyville to clear my thoughts." Twilight states sighing deeply.

"I imagine you miss your home?" Edward asks glancing at Twilight.

"Yeah... I've been to another world before, but I always had a way back. This time, I have no idea where to even begin figuring that out. We are stranded in an unknown world with no way back home." Twilight stares back up at the sky as they walk past Glimmers.

"If it's any condolence, I was once stuck in another country before with my family and had no way home at the time. What is your home like? You've been learning about our culture since getting here, I'd like to know about yours." Edward states picking up a random rock to play with.

"It's not exactly the same, but thanks for the thought. My world isn't that different in regards to landscape. Some of the people we have met here are counterparts to those back home. It's weird, but not entirely uncomfortable." Twilight comments levitating the rock away from Edward.

The two eventually reach the village entrance before Edward leads them on the left path towards the Wyvern house dorm.

"What's the magic like in your world?" Edward asks folding his arms.

"Again, not much different from this world. To be honest, it's fortunate we came to a world with magic otherwise, it'd be much harder to find a way home." Twilight states levitating the rock around idly.

"What about you specifically? As in more about you." Edward asks levitating the rock back to him with his own magic.

Twilight chuckles a little and sighs before taking a deep breath.

"I'm not too much of an interesting subject, honestly. I used to be a Unicorn before finishing one of Starswirl's spells, I then ascended to become an Alicorn. Like I might have explained before, Alicorns are princesses. In total there are five Alicorns in Equestria at the moment." Twilight explains as they continue walking towards the dorm.

"Where did you learn to do magic?" Edward asks throwing the rock off the road.

"At a young age, I went to Princess Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns. I was then sent to Ponyville to continue my teachings where I met my friends and managed the library. Then I became an Alicorn, had the library blown up by an evil centaur which led to me getting my own castle." Twilight continues to explain.

"I wonder if Alexander could apply to get a castle for his families last house." Edward comments chuckling.

"Wait, Alexander's house blew up? How did that happen?" Twilight asks coming to a sudden stop.

"It didn't blow up." Edward replies as he keeps walking.

"Oh, that's not so-" Twilight starts to say.

"But it did burn down." Edward interrupts.

"How in the name of Celestia did he manage that?!" Twilight asks catching up to Edward.

Edward chuckles as he leads Twilight past the Wyvern house dorm and towards a cylinder building in the distance.

"It's a long story which he'll have to explain as I don't know the full details." Edward states as they walk the new path.

"Where are we going exactly? We have been here a week, but hardly explored the campus itself." Twilight asks looking around at the trees.

"It's a surprise, but trust me it'll be worth it. There are quite a few facilities at Kilgharah we shall have to take you both to at some point." Edward states as they approach the cylinder building with a dome on the top.

Taking her over to the building they eventually find the double door entrance and proceed inside to see, what resembles a makeshift astrology museum. The cylinder shaped room they enter has exhibits, diagrams and dioramas of various astrology based models. On the right side of the room is a curving staircase which leads to an upper floor.

"Wow, this is quite the collection of astrology works. I used to stargaze back home at the Canterlot observatory and my own balcony." Twilight comments.

"Where I live is a very nice open hill where you can view the night sky very well." Edward states as he leads Twilight up the stairs to the upper floor.

The upper floor of the observatory has a large rectangle slit in the roof where the large telescope sticks out of. Looking up, Twilight can see the night sky is magically projected onto the roof of the observatory dome.

"This is beautiful, it's different to the night sky back home, but it's still beautiful." Twilight states looking past the telescope at the starry night sky.

"There has to be something around this academy about interdimensional travel." Edward states frowning.

"If there was, I'm sure Starlight and I would have found it by now. Though, we have yet to explore the forbidden wing." Twilight states sighing deeply.

"They really need more security on that place..." Edward rubs his forehead.

"I can imagine if you and Alexander were able to steal from there... Still, it might yield some results if nothing else." Twilight folds her arms.

"One way or another I'm sure we'll find a way to get you both home, hopefully before anyone finds out you're not actually familiars." Edward states smiling.

"We can but hope, thanks for being supportive. Speaking about Alexander though... I wonder where he and Starlight ended up from the club." Twilight ponders that thought for several moments.

"Knowing him, he had some escape plan. We'll see him in the morning no doubt." Edward states.

"Hopefully he can keep Starlight out of trouble till we reunite." Twilight states, but hears Edward chuckle.

"This is Alexander we are talking about... Don't count your chickens just yet." Edward states sighing.

"Fun..." Twilight deadpans.
