Sol had finished reading the books and to say he was shocked would be an understatement with how the mares and Stallions are now so different. But to him that didn't matter as he had no plans to get married, at least not anytime soon. What was more important was today and the event's it was going to bring as word about him has now all around Equestria and there was more than a few odd reactions from multiple empires as Discords 'Prank' was global and not just limited to Equestria.

A Mare or multiple as harems were common, would rub themselves all over their lover as a way of marking them with their scent which others could easily smell, indicating he was taken. But to him that didn't matter as he wasn't planning on getting married. Mostly because his Alicorn immortality would only make love with anyone not like him a painful thing. Cadence likely has thought about that with her partner and is dreading the day he passes.

Sol decided to get himself ready for today so he went to take a shower before putting on the same royal wear he always wore. Celestia more or less had the same kind made for him but had them separated and marked one for each day of the week. And a backup. So he had around 14 sets of the same, all in one place.

Putting a hoof to his head, he sighed. It was almost comical they way they were all the same. But he quickly took the set that had the label for today and left his room. As he walked the halls he saw the maids cleaning and some flirted with him as they had a habit of doing, but he learned to block it out and focus on today.

As he made his way to the throne room he saw a 3rd throne that Celestia had ordered to be constructed for him. Smiling, he approached it and sat down and was delighted to feel how soft it was.

"No Sol. Focus. You are a prince. Hold yourself like such and act like an adult." He told himself as he fixed his back and sat upright.

"Well look who's ready for duty." Celestia appeared from behind the throne which made Sol jump.

"Tia! Don't do that!" He said as he managed to stop his Fight response and stopped himself from potentially giving her a bloodied nose or eye. Putting a hoof on his chest he managed to calm himself down.

"Sorry. But i couldn't help it." She said with a big grin on her face as she took her seat next to him.

"So how did you sleep?" She asked happily.

"Quite well. I still find it hard to think i am back after all these years. To be honest, i kind of forgot i was a prince with all those years i lived alone." Sol wasn't going to lie. He was already starting to miss his old house and his old life. But he also remembered that Grand Harvest told him that if he ever did decide to go back, he should spend time with his family as he sadly lost his in a timber wolf attack.

Sol's first taste of immortality came when he was living with Grand harvest. When he was getting taught how to work the land and how to take care of it. Over time he saw Harvest get more grey and weaker. One time which was 4 years before his passing he collapsed in the garden and Sol rushed over to him. By that time Sol hadn't aged in appearance since the day he ran away, but as he looked at Harvest he knew he wouldn't be around for much longer.

Sol spent the last 3 years of Harvest's life as the one who attended the garden. 1 year before his passing he lost his sight and 6 months later he didn't ever remember who Sol was. He was starting to sleep all the time. Only waking up for food, which Sol had to feed him and tell him he was his 'Caretaker'. It was one of the toughest times for Sol as every passing day he would wake up and check on Harvest. Making sure he was still alive.

Around 1 week before he passed he stayed awake more often but he was talking to the air. Taking to those he once knew like they were in front of him and he would also talk into the early hours of the morning. Sol would never forget the day that he passed away. He was trying to get to sleep but couldn't as Harvest was still talking to the air. But as it reached around 2 in the morning, he heard a chuckle from Harvest and then he went silent. Looking back on that moment he realised he likely passed just before he himself managed to get to sleep.

That was around the first time he felt starvation in a long time as he failed to keep the garden healthy by spending time indoors, trying to get over the fact that Harvest was gone. Thankfully he did manage to ration the food he did have until the summer and by that time he was almost skeletal in appearance. About 10 years after that he decided to move to a more remote place.

"Sol?" He snapped out of it and looked up at Celestia.

"Sorry Sis. Just thinking." He didn't realise that Luna too had arrived and was standing next to him. He only realised when he looked to the side to see her smiling at him.

"You still daydream?" She asked jokingly.

"Yeah i do. So what?" Both giggled and took their seats with him.

With that the day begun and Sol watch on as Celestia and Luna delt with their work. Sol still didn't have much to do as he was still learning about what's changed and how he will now deal with the new culture. He could challenge Celestia to a duel to prove to others that he was capable of taking care of himself as a Stallion of old. But they would likely say 'She let him win to be a 'Gentlemare' or some crap like that.

Not only that but the attention he got from being royalty was starting to get annoying. Thankfully Celestia was there to tell them all to leave him alone and that he could do things himself. He thought about running away again but he didn't want to hurt Celestia who had waited so long to see him or Luna who looks like she wasn't even back for 5 years.

Sighing, he got up from his throne and went to the garden. Saying to Celestia and Luna 'I need to take a walk' as he left. Walking in the gardens was something he usually did to clear his head or calm down. As he went into the gardens he was approached by a mare who asked to be his escort.

"I can take care of myself. I am not like 'Your' stallions." He said with a hint of disgust which caused her to take a single step back.

"I didn't mean to offend you." She said as she looked upset. Sol sighed and rubbed his head.

"I'm just tired of being treated like a kid after i was raised to show no emotion and follow logic since i would be a leader. It's not your fault. Return to your duties." He said and left as he entered the garden.

As he walked in the garden it wasn't long until he saw that Discords statue was gone. This made him panic a little as he couldn't really remember much about Discord other than he was not a nice guy. The only memory he has of him was a seemingly 3 second memory of him sitting on a throne, laughing and a strong feeling of fear.

"Guard!" He called in a voice that sounded more concerned that fearful. The mare from before ran up to him.

"Sir?"

"Where's Discord?" He asked as he pointed to the empty place his statue use to be.

"Oh. He's reformed. He's now living with Fluttershy." She said so casually.

"Really? Him? Reformed?" She nodded. "I...see. Thanks. You say resume your duties." He told her as he walked further into the gardens, only to soon be blocked by...a wall of bubbles?

"Oh my, how much you have grown." A familiar voice said from all around.

"Discord?" He asked as he looked around and as he did, the bubbles took shape into the Discord he remembered in his memory.

"Well look who's back. The Prince. Where have you been all these years?" He asked as he then put in a hat and smoked a pipe while looking through documents that he made appear. "Cause i couldn't seem to find you at all when i got out. You were none existent." He then made them all vanish.

"I was away. In my own little adventure."

"1003 years? Some adventure. You must have a lot of stories." He didn't reply to that.

"What? Don't tell me you lived in isolation for a long time?" Sol did the same and didn't respond. "Oh...introverts. No fun at all. Why keep it all in? Show the true you." He said as he flicked a finger against his head and one of these smiling masks you see in Drama signs fell to the ground.

With a look of amusement on his face, he looked right at Discord.

"Oh fine. I get it you want to be alone. But you will come around eventually. Especially in a world like this. Where stallions only make up less than 10% of the overall population." He said with a smirk and vanished.

Sol shook his head with rolling eyes.

"No. I'm happy as i am." He said with a hint if pain in his chest. "Get lost!" He said to himself and steeled himself against the feeling. He knew he was an alicorn and as a result, anyone who wanted to marry would pass away. He would have to eventually bury his grand-foals and all others down the line. What kind of life is it where the elder has to bury and outlive the young? No. He would remain single. He would avoid the pain.

One thing he did wonder was what else changed or what happened besides the culture change and he knew just the place to head to check on that. The throne room.

Heading back to the throne room he looked at the glass windows which Celestia said she was saving for 'Something Special' previously and had a habit of putting up images of stories. One glass window caught his eye. One that he had walked by a few times but up until now had never stopped and looked at it. It was a picture of him...flying down with snow covered mountains in the background and both Luna and Celestia looking up in delight at him.

"When was this installed?" He asked himself.

"On the very day you returned while you were sleeping." Celestia said behind him with a smile. Sol looked over the others. One of them depicting an invasion of some kind. "That's the invasion of Canterlot. It happened recently, about 2 months age." Canterlot was invaded and he never heard about it? He really was living under a rock for 1000 years.

"It was invaded and i didn't even know about it." He said in shock.

"Everything turned out well. Thankfully." She said with a smile.

"Why didn't you fight back?" He asked her. "You have the power of the Sun. A star. Why not fight back?" He asked almost angrily.

"Why do you think? The collateral damage would be too devastating. I challenged the queen and was winning, but then i felt my power boil up...i felt...her speaking into my ear and i lowered my power."

"Her?" He asked with confusion but Celestia looked shocked.

"Oh did i say her haha? I mean...the queen was trying to get into my mind. Yeah." Celestia was clearly nervous about something. "Sorry Sol but i have to go. IHaveCakeLeftOverIfYouWantSomeOkBye." She said in a panic before teleportating away. All he got from that was something about cake.

Sol was left there stunned. Celestia had never acted like that before and it made him concerned for her. But what could he do? He decided he would head to the door to the council chambers and listen into what they were talking about. He had nothing to do so he went there and as he had come to expect, it was all mares.

The rest of the day went slow. Most things that normally happened didn't take place that day and even Luna saw that it was a much slower day than normal.

"So how was your Day?"

"Besides a shock seeing Discord again. Uneventful."

"I know. Strange." Sol had a feeling it was because of him. The days were getting more easier with less mares showing up and when they did they were more...formal and sharply dressed. Perhaps they were trying to catch his eye. "Oh Luna. I was speaking to Tia today and she acted strange."

"What happened?"

"Tia mentioned...her. Do you know who shes talking about?"

"Her? As in just that with no name?" Sol nodded and Luna shook her head.

"Sorry. But i have no clue. I don't think shes talking about mum so i have no idea." Luna smiled at him before it turned to a grin. "Hey Sol. How about we have a bet?"

"What are you implying?"

"We go out disguised and see who can drink the most before giving up. None alcoholic of course."

"The stakes?" He asked with a grin

"If i win. You have to wear a suit and greet mares who arrive tomorrow." He narrowed his eyes at her as she grin evilly. "You never know. You might like somepony." She said in an almost singing like way.

"And if i win?" She lost her smile.

"What do you want to happen?" After thinking on it for a moment he looked at her with a grin.

"For Nightmare night you will have to wear 'That' suit." He said as he hinted to something with a grin and Luna's eyes widened with fear.

"Why?" She asked but he just put up a hoof.

"Deal or no deal?" After a few moments she took it and shook.

"Fine." With that, both of them disguised themselves and went out.

Author's Notes:

I am thinking of Cancelling the FNAF story and making a new SCP crossover story called 'Son Of Scarlet' as i have totally forgot what the story of the FNAF one even was. Also to those who are reading this one. I am mainly focused on my other story TOWTH.
