Author's Notes:

Folks, im not sure if to call this chapter artsy fartsy, or a little tough on the brain. But it's kinda supposed to be. Also, it has no Xenos, but it's still good!

Dainn finds himself in a void that's neither hot nor cold. It almost feels like a place devoid of any form of temperature, or any form of feel for that matter. He can't feel anything. How did he even get here? Not even half a second ago, one of those demons was about to tear him to shreds along with Daring Do. What by the gods is going on!?

"This is Discord's work, the traitor!" Dainn tells himself.

"Now, who is more of the traitor?" Discord asks, despite not being physically present, "Before you asked me to give you the power to make the Caribou one empire, everyone was fine with being a constant war. Don't you even remember that you worship war gods? Originally, you're kind lived to fight, and kept on fighting in the afterlife. Everyone was excepting of it. And no one other than your own kind a got hurt and killed."

Suddenly, Dainn is floating over a battlefield of sprinkled the bodies of water and islands. Ships are everywhere, Caribou are everywhere; all armed to the teeth, all laying waste to Caribou in different colored clothes. But Dainn finds himself floating over to a nearby town, where there's a clan that has decided it to fight today. All of it looks rundown and horrible. Nothing could possibly live there happily... But one female in particular couldn't be anymore happier right now. How could she? She's engaging in lovely sex with her handsome husband. And there's an extra thicc passion in the surrounding air that you couldn't cut with a butter knife. And for good reason. The two Caribou are actually married, and the sex between them is happening romantically. The two love each other, and their passion is truly showing it.

"Things like love existed! True passion!..." Discord said in excitement, but his tone goes dark, "But you decided to put an end to it." The town becomes attacked by brass armored Caribou, and the two lovers are separated with the male being brainwashed and he runs back filled with loveless lust. He grabs his wife by the hair, yanks her down, and violates her ass in public with a soldiers joining in and filling her other holes, "Guh!... Even I know that's wrong, and I've turned entire species into gasses and gelatinous blobs."

"So You're Having Your Son Release Those Monsters As A Lesson!?" Dainn yells out in anger, "Sexualized Or Not, I Still Care For The Well-Being Of Most!"

"Oh, please. There are many other worse things I could've done." Discord threatens, "I could've sent an entire military of armored humans out to wipe your entire empire away, but instead I send my very young son to deal with you. He's not as creative as me, and at most you'll lose Canterlot... As well as it's inhabitants."

"My Best And Brightest Live There!!" Dainn says, his anger growing.

"And you are not the best, and nowhere close to the brightest!" Discord says in aggressive disappointment, "You were to bring Caribou like you away from the constant war!"

"And I Did!!" Dainn protested.

"No, you brought it to everything else!" Discord said, getting more aggressive than he usually does, "I thought that you were the right choice because you could bring ponies together so quickly, and you regurgitate it at my face by abusing that ability! You invaded when I thought you would join Celestia's fair rule! She would've been more than happy to help your kind out! I should know first hand, as she had the Lord of Chaos approved for Equestrian citizenship! Imagine how much she could've helped your kind out!"

"THEN WHY DID YOU GIVE ME MY POWER!?" Dainn demands.

There's a silence as the surroundings become a courtroom and Discord disappears... And then one man walks out to a center podium and sits down. He's dressed in black and red robes that cover all but his face and his red gloved hands. Dainn looks around to see that he's at the center of the room standing on a circular platform, and behind and around him are stands filled with ponies of all kinds, griffons, Caribou, and various humanoids, everyone being of all different shapes, colors, and sizes. The crowd is all talking with each other and pointing at Dainn occasionally. Discord reapers in his human form, in Caribou armor with a clan symbol that's very familiar to Dainn. The man picks up a gavel and taps it on the podium three times, addresseing the crowd that something is going to start.

"Good morning, Worm your honor." Discord announces, "The crowd will plainly show the King who now stands before you. A Caribou male who was caught showing feelings." The crowd begins loudly booing, "Showing feelings of an unfavorable nature..." The crowd continues booing, "This will not due."

The man behind the podium shows a look of disapproval, and the noise of the crowd goes quiet.

"Bring Out It's Teacher!" One of the denizens in the crowd demands. A large and bulky Caribou in armor similar to Discord's marches angrily into the room, drawing his large double-headed axe.

"I Should've Put You Down Long Ago, Dainn!" The Caribou claims. Dainn knows exactly who this bulky Caribou is.

"This is impossible, Bryan's Dead!" Dainn cries out, fearing for his life.

"I Am Dead!" Bryan shouts at Dainn, "But the gods themselves have brought me forth to allow me the time to tell you how you've abstained from what I taught you! I showed you how easily you could lead others, it was like a primary nature to you."

"You beat me!" Dainn claimed, the crowd chuckling, "He Did! He Would Stab Me And Cut Me When I Was A Child, Along With Many Others!" The laughter in the crowd only grew louder, "He Tortured Us Because We Were Weak!!"

"And The Others Became Warriors!" Bryan claims, "I was being harder on the others, unlike the soft treatment I gave you, so that they would become warriors! But instead, you remained the worm you are today... Worm, your honor! Let me reteach him in my ways so that he may return a true Caribou!"

"Bring Out His Breeding Female!"

The crowd silences as Bryan walks out to the sidelines as a female Caribou walks up to Dainn. This one appears to be filled with stab holes and looks like something pulled her apart... And she's pregnant.

"You little shit, you're in it now!" The female pronounces to Dainn, and loudly enough for the crowd, "I hope they lock you up away and throw away the key!"

"Who are you?" Dainn asks, seeing something that is so familiar yet so not familiar.

"The one who you should've talk to more often than you did, 'honey'!" The female claims.

"But you were found-"

"Torn in half willingly by a black creature that took one of your exotic Crystal mares, and slaughtered the rest." The female interrupts, "It looked like it had Kane's antlers, the warrior I should've perused instead of your twisted mind! Now there was a Caribou! Only cared for glory and not what was around his cock, unlike you! No, you had to soil the land of beauty!"

"I thought you would be proud of me for such a prize!" Dainn calls out, "I have succeeded where others failed! Gods of destruction, lords of chaos, even power-hungry kings-"

"Now There's The Pot Calling The Kettle Black!!!" Bryan announces, the crowd back to laughing their heads off.

"I AM NOT POWER-HUNGRY!!!!" Dainn cries out in anger.

"Oh? Do you really believe that?" Discord asks while snapping, causing a tear in time and space to reveal the very moment he was going to conquer Equestria. It was the day the very council he assembled disappeared to the knowledge of Dainn's empire.

"Gentlebucks, we have conquered most of our own land." The Dainn from the past says, talking to a group of tacticians and old kings inside a large tent with guards holding torches, "However, I think we should expand."

"Agreed!" An old king says, "I say we take Griffonstone! Their kings are no more and the Cyclops fell into the abyss, so they will hold little resistance towards us!"

"No, I think we should be taking on something bigger with a better bounty." Dainn says, waving his hand a disagreement over a table with a map on top, "Besides, Griffons are rather ugly."

"Dainn, Griffonstone is the only place we can conquer." A captain clad in warn armor, "It's either that, or we intrude into the Dragons' Country. And the rest of the world is covered by other warring races that make us Caribou look like we're having a picnic."

Dainn draws a knife, and plays with it along with tossing it into the air.

"I know. I know that surrounding us, the Griffons, and the Ponies is complete chaos. And even then, the enchanted forest known as The Everfree resides in the Ponies' lands. Our world is only kept alive because of a powerful magic... And it comes from here."

Dainn throws the knife, and it stabs into the table at a place that makes all inside the tent gasp in surprise.

"Have You Gone Mad!?" An old Caribou warlord yells out while getting out of his chair, angered by Dainn's choice, "The Land of Beauty is strictly forbidden to war! And even if we did takeover, the gods themselves would open the jaws of hell to release yet another scourge unto this wretched world!... However, you did call us over to the first Caribou Leaders' Council Meeting. All against Emperor Dainn's mad plan, say 'Aye'."

With that, all the leaders but Dainn say "Aye"...

"Well, here's the thing. I didn't call you all over for that reason at all." Dainn waves a hand in the direction of the thrown knife, and it levitates back to him, "I've called you all here to submit to being my slutty slaves that always beg for my cock."

The council all panics over Dainn's words and the fact that he now has magic power.

"W-what by the gods!?"

"How did you come about such black magic!"

"BASTARD!!!"

The last call out caught Dainn's attention.

"What did you call me?" Dainn asks in an angered tone.

"You are the bastard son of Dainston!" An unseeable voice says, "The child that was found in a Deer barge. Said to-" the unseeable voice changes to a completely female one, and a one of the guards falls, the guard next to her grabs her torch. "You can change my body and gender, but that doesn't make what Bryan said about you wrong!"

Dainn pulls down the front of his pants, letting an erecting cock flop out onto display.

"I'm going to say three words, and you are going to do so." Dainn says with a strict voice, "Suck. My. Cock." The changed guard struggles to run away, and ends up crumbling as she crawls towards Dainn's fully erect member. Her mouth quickly covers Dainn's dick, and Council gasps in horror, "In fact, all of you." Dainn waves his hand over the crowd while six Caribou monks walk into the tent and surround the council, "On your knees, and give me pleasure."

The tear closes while the past Dainn pulls up a chair to sit in white entire council becomes sex crazed females all hungering for Dainn. It revealed what really happened.

"Well. It looks like the only one having any fun at that time was you." Discord says, looking at the current Dainn's heavily concerned face with an intimidating smile, "They don't call me the Lord of chaos for no reason."

Bryan and the torn apart female both look at Dainn with anger.

"Just five minutes, Worm your honor..." The torn female asks rather calmly, "Dainn and me alone."

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

An older female Caribou runs into the room, crying. She hugs Dainn tightly as she gets to him.

"Oh, Dainn! Why did you have to leave home?" The older female asks.

"M-mother?" Dainn asks, his mood deeply changing to one of disgust, "What the hell are you doing here, I let fifty of my horniest soldiers have their way with you!"

"After only after you claimed her as your second personally owned female!" The torn famale points out, "First me, then your own adopted mother because you hated her!"

"She Kept Me Coddled In Her Overprotective Ways!" Dainn yells, "She would never let me see the world because she thought I was supposed to be some miracle child!"

"Oh, I know I probably kept you inside too much!" The older female cries out, "But it was for your own good! Now I know I should've been even more protective!"

"You knew his potential, yet you didn't take my suggestion." Bryan said, "I warned that if he would ever leave you, that I would take him in to make him the mightiest leader... If only I knew that my suspicions were right.

"I knew that he would lead something big, but I never wanted him to get in any sort of trouble!" The older female cries out, "Worm, your honor, let me take him back home!"

With that finally said, The crowd goes as silent as death... And the male at the podium removes his hood to reveal Dainn, only his antlers have been cut off and sanded down. In addition, the robed Dainn looks down at his non-robed counterpart in disgust.

"You're Impossible!" Dainn yells out, "You must be another one of Discord's tricks! In fact, you must be him!"

"Don't be so sure, Dainn!" The antlerless Dainn retorts, "I am you! The very room you are in now is one devoid of time or space! It is beyond those planes of existence. Right now we are inside the Q Continuum, The only place we would be possible for me to judge my past-self without harming time."

"Judge myself!?" Dainn says loudly in disbelief, feeling mocked, "Why would I do such a thing!? And Why Would My Antlers Be Removed!! That's How I Know That You're Not Me!!"

"You will find out in your future." Future Dainn says, "And when you do come to that point-'

"I Will Never Reach Any Point Of Defeat!!" Dainn interrupts in a great fit of anger, "I Am Dainn, King Of The Caribou Empire! Nothing Can Stop Me, Especially While I Am In My Prime!!!"

There's a silence for a time. It's lack of sound goes beyond anything ever not heard... Until the Dainn from the future shatters it.

"The Evidence Before The Court Is Incontrovertible! I See No Need For The Jury To Retire!" The room goes dark as the future Dainn seems to become the largest part of the room as he looks down at his past-self and grabs the podium, "In All My Years Of Searching, I Have Never Found Before! A Version Of Myself That's So Deserving Of A Full Penalty Or More!" The future Dainn points down at his past-self, and stares into his own soul, "I Will Make You Suffer, And The Fact That You Ignored Your Wife And Mother!..." D\the future Dainn once again grabs the podium, and fills with more anger, "Such An At Fills Me With The Urge To DEFECATE!!! But Since I'm You I Will Reveal Your Deepest Fear!" the future Dainn gestures to clouds that develop into a wall made of white bricks, "I Will Reveal That You Feel Fear In Front Of Your Peers!!! TEAR DOWN HIS WAAAAAAAALL!!!!"

"Tear Down The Wall!" the crowd chants as they all run to the white wall and tear it down brick by brick. And with every removed brick, Dainn feels his fears surfacing as he falls to his knees and begins to shed tears. He begins to shiver under a newfound pressure that's spreading throughout his body.

"Make It Stop!" Dainn pleads, "Please!!! MAKE IT STOP!!! PLEASE!!!!"

The future Dainn and the crowd only laugh as the world around Dainn fades away. Dainn breaks into tears as fear surrounds his mind and strangles him...

With the blinking oh his eyes, the King of the Caribou finds himself in his newly built castle in Ponyville. He's in the bedroom, laying on the floor and sweating profusely. Dainn gets up unsteadily, and rushes to the bathroom to throw some water on his face. He splashes his face with cool water and the sight of his antlerless future self appears staring him in the eyes, causing Dainn to fall to the floor.

"Remember that I am your future, Dainn." the mirror image says as it reverts back to the current Dainn, "Remember..."

"... What the fuck is happening to me?" Dainn asks himself.
