Thinking back to what I had done in the library, it went well - except the interruption with Dhanthas - and I had a guide now as well. That Rainbow Dash will hopefully calm down, Applejack remained as one and with a third-aspect point of view, Fluttershy... I'm not sure if she accepted me or Dhanthas scared her too much. And finally, Twilight Sparkle... I think she accepted me to a certain level, just like the farm pony. I wasn't hostile in their eyes, just a mystery... and I was going to remain as one...

So in the end... I came out pretty good from this situation and I decided to beat the crap out of Dhanthas the next night... I could not figure out where my luck came from, given how wrong I was throughout our conversation. Maybe fate turned its gaze away from me for a short time?

But all if this was in the past, and musing about it more would only cause me a headache or earn fate's gaze to flick back to me... and I did not want that after this lucky escape...

Not the best first impression, but I managed to fix it to a better one. Now, they won't be scared upon spotting me... only feel uneasy, due to knowing nothing about me. I used to live my life like this... how much I enjoyed punishing those bullies at school, using their lack of knowledge and my fighting skills. Seriously, why use Energy on Mortals, when ultimate battles had already taught me how to handle myself?

But I'm getting off topic... let me tell you about the present... more like what was happening in the present...

Upon stepping outside, I immediately started following Twilight and told her to not stop until we get to the Mayor's house. At first, she was confused about my ushering, but after taking a few steps and glancing around, she quickly understood why I said that. She thoughtfully regained her composure and to my surprise, she put on a merry smile, like it was the most ordinary thing to do, while walking with an 'alien' on the street. I decided to not question her, finding it fair enough.

I'm telling you, the whole town was looking at me with wide eyes and open mouthes. Whatever were they doing, they just stopped to gawk at me, no matter how attention-needed that activity was. A grey pegasus female even crashed into one of the stands, promoting her eyes to be crossed! Or the shopkeeper dropped the bits from his hooves... and I don't know what was confusing... the fact that he was HOLDING the bits or the fact that I was really that much of an influence in their daily lives of these ponies...

I kept my position next to Twilight Sparkle, not wanting to look like some creep in the citizens eyes, who came to stare at equine rears. Believe me, it came to me just as naturally, as natural for me to not fall behind a Humanoid, in order to not give the impression of a creep. See? Just like with Mortals, it works the same way. The difference is the specie...

Also, I noticed that Twilight was starting to get more and more nervous from all the attention after a while. Everywhere we went, ponies stopped and stared. My eyes preferred the dull colors, not moving seas of rainbows, everywhere I looked or was able to see from the corner of my eyes. I was in the middle of that colorful sea, but I ignored it, just like I ignored the hundred pairs of eyes, watching me. I told myself to look straight forward and not just because of the attention, but because of the colors. Yes, yes, it was exotic to see a town as lively as Ponyville, but I still needed the time for my eyes to adjust to this bright world... that could have been a reasonable explanation for why I was frowning all the time...

It's good that I didn't have Scopophobia... that combined with the blinding brightness...

I heard the whispering behind me and not all of them were about me...

''It's that thing from before.'' ''What is it doing here?'' ''What is she doing with it?''

And many more questions, similar and all of them aimed at us...

Back to Twilight, I saw it from the corner of my eyes, that her neck was shrinking lower and lower. I was right next to her, not one to torture her with public 'humiliation' and to tell the truth... I needed some info...

''How things are going in Ponyville?''

She visibly brightened up, quickly forgetting the gathering crowds around us. ''Ahh, just perfectly. Ponyville just started to get popular among the celebrities and a lot of them have been here. The town is small, as you can see and you can meet with everypony under a few days. A tight community, and the social gatherings are always so much fun to attend at or take part in the preparations. The citizens of Ponyville are really good at teamwork and each days is a joy for us...'' Now imagine that I was repeatedly swapping out her words, to get an accurate picture about my world... just imagine a world, where everything happens completely differently and not as she told me. ''Eh... except a few small accidents and disasters, but we would never give those adventures away for anypony. My friends and I are always willing to save Equestria from danger.'' Now we're talking. I started to get the feeling that I was in some ridiculously peaceful land, filled with smiles and flowers... maybe it was because of my eyes. They were readjusting still, so it could have been an understatement for thinking that...

Anyways, she said danger... and like some sort of action film maniac, I asked her. ''Tell me about these adventures. Want kind of dangers tried to threaten Equestria so far?''

''Huhh... well, this is gonna take a while...'' She warned me.

''Just like our road to the Mayor. Go on, I want to be prepared for these dangers and take care of them, if it comes down to me...'' I told her, JUST leaving out enough detail to not make her ask back.

''Well... alright. Let me start with the day of my arrival in Ponyville...'' And with that, she proceeded to tell me how she became an Element of Harmony, along with that other three, plus two ponies. Internally, I was shouting at the top of my lungs, that it is bullshit... but that magic of friendship? ''Really? They have fun to defeat a lady, who just wanted to be appreciated, but it was still happy end, because she turned out to be Celestia's sister? Let me imagine my fight against Lucifer... Ben and Viki were both there and...'' Ah-ha! Here we go, caught myself in it!

You see... Lucifer nearly defeated me. How did I win? Well, remembering back to what will happen to the world and my loved ones... my Light Power started shining with its full glory. And you can possibly imagine what could that do to a Dark being...

The point is... there was some living proof, that she wasn't talking garbage. And of course, it was Equestria... magic could come from anywhere...

Back to her tale, I remembered back to what Celestia said about Twilight and compared it to what the unicorn just told me. She thought having friends was unnecessary and time wasting. I only disagree with the first one, knowing well that having friends means responsibility... in my world, that is. And responsibility had taught me that I can't just throw away everything. If not for my loved ones, I wouldn't be the Balance anymore... and I wouldn't be alive either, if not for them...

From her little tale, I got to know more about that other three, who were probably having a hard time at registering what just happened. I found out, that the farmer was a respectable one... not like I haven't found that out, but it got confirmed...

The yellow pegasus wasn't afraid of me that much, because of me... she was - as her name indicated - shy. Shy, to the highest levels! But I should have figured that out sooner, given how the others were much calmer...

And the hothead... who had the privilege to experience a sudden relief from a healing Ability. She was an okay figure and if I hadn't figure it out, then now I knew it... I was the one to be blamed for her attitude. Scaring her like that and getting an irritating blow to the head? It is like smacking a bull on the nose, it gets enraged to no end... And when she found out that I wasn't going to hurt them, she felt pissed beyond belief. Why? Well, imagine if an unknown creature, follows you all the way to next town, searching for something... in her case, she thought I came for her, then it turns out she misunderstood the whole thing... embarrassing, I know and that is why I made sure to ignore her venom targeted at me...

What about the unicorn? Well, I found myself very alike with her at the topic of friendship. She was a student and so was I. And while I was in need of information to take advantage on my enemy, she was knowledge hungry by herself. No hidden purposes like taking over the town or something like that... she just wanted to have that great knowledge...

That was something I could not figure out, even after asking her to tell me a reason. She couldn't say any...

At least it didn't end up with her, asking me to tell her what I meant by a reason...

And let me tell you... I was pretty sure that the first thing that I would have said, was this: ''To defeat any foe, whom comes in your way and tries to hurt your loved ones...'' Yeah, not the best thing to tell her. She was good like that, no need to urge her to learn faster or suffering shall be her end. I would say, she found entertainment in learning and it was enough motivation for her to reach her goal, which I cannot name yet...

Back to her tale, Dhanthas, like he didn't know when he should leave me alone and hide himself from my wrath... well... he found a great interest at this 'Nightmare Moon' character... or alter-ego of Princess Luna, who was Celestia's sister and co-ruler of Equestria. There, I understood at last Celestia's final comment about someone, hearing me complimenting the night. She was talking about her sister! And before I could start questioning myself why didn't she tell me about her, I reminded myself that I wasn't that informative either.

And actually... it didn't come to topic and you know how passively we were at Canterlot, only talking about what was in the present or around us...

Before I forget to mention - not like I haven't said it before - , Celestia was a big player. According to Twilight Sparkle, she planned the whole thing out! From sending her here to Ponyville, all the way up to getting Princess Luna back to ruling... son of a bitch! Celestia! I was starting to think that I could beat you in planning things out, but no... keeping a plan in check for a thousand years? That right there, was pure and mighty intelligence, something I would never be able to beat and not just because I won't live for a thousand years...

''Are you alright?'' Snapped me out of my thought the unicorn.

For while, I had fallen silent, putting the information pieces together, with past events. Twilight Sparkle was a better information source than Nurse Redcross!

''I apologize. Dhanthas seemed to find an interest in this Nightmare Moon.'' I explained to her, shaking my head unnoticeably.

''How could he find the evil side of Princess Luna interesting? Nightmare Moon was evil, I just told you...'' She lowered her voice, sounding like she didn't want to cause any panic, by saying her name. I understood her, the same thing was with Lucifer as well. Souls in my world were afraid of him and talking about him, was like calling him to the surface.

In other words, dangerous...

''Eternal night does sound interesting, I admit. But yet again, he talks before thinking. I don't think I have to explain to you, what happens to nature, if the darkness rules their lives...'' I told her, managing to finally lock out the crowd around us...

''I know, yes. And to think that only darkness would rule... terrible...'' She shook her, probably imagining how life would be like in eternal night.

I was about to open my mouth, nearly making the mistake of disagreeing with her. In my opinion, eternal night could be highly interesting. You would be able to see the stars throughout twenty-four hours; would be able to stay cool at night and just not sweat from the heat; be able to stay hidden and recharge your Dark Energy to a sempiternal amount... but the latter ones were good for only me and other Dark beings. The thing is, eternal night wouldn't be a bad future... more like a change in my opinion...

Instead of raising suspicion about the Dark side of mine, I asked further, not letting her to analyze me, like I do it with her and with other things...

''What were the other dangerous beings like this Mare on the Moon?''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

''Are these ponies actually aware of the term of 'war'? Or 'violence' for that matter?'' I found myself asking this from myself... hmm, surprise, surprise...

Let me tell you how I came to this question of mine...

Twilight Sparkle told me about this second great threat, Discord. She told me that he was the God of Chaos and that he made the ponies life 'miserable'. From what she had told me, his behavior was more like annoying, his intentions downright ridiculous and his methods just fucking stupid. That already showed me that it wasn't a serious threat, but when Dhanthas started singing chocolate rain, I further found myself seeing these ponies as an overreacting gang... which left me expecting the worst, when I will leave behind my guide and try to interact with the citizens...

Yes, it would have been a terrible future, but really? Dangerous? That God was like a child, not understanding where to stop! I expected much more from a God, who was the chaos itself. But this?!

There was this name back on Earth, in connection with annoying souls, and the kids called these souls as an A'nforian creature for some reason... I cannot remember. I've never been into this blogging thing and chatting thing, even though I was aware about it and used it at one point...

In other words, I found him harmless. And thinking it over, I was sure that a Mortal could have easily made him run away. I mean, Twilight Sparkle and her friends didn't even try to attack him, when he was directly between them! Only Rainbow Dash was the one, who actually attempted to deliver a strike. Yeah, he was a God and no match to these ponies. But thinking over what would a Human do or at least try to do? Discord would have been running away from flying rocks, spears or any kind of objects, that would have came to the hands of a Mortal...

Also, the thought of me being there, who had spectacular and highly offensive Abilities... Discord was lucky to be imprisoned in a stone, instead of feeling my wrath and anger... sick satisfaction pulsed through me, when I thought about 'giving a piece of my mind' for a disgrace of God like that...

Hmm, when I say piece of my mind, it is like showing a memory of mine, given how brutal my past was... nice metaphor, I should be proud now...

Further analyzing this enemy, Celestia came to mind. She and her sister could have easily killed him if they would have been in that mind state. Seriously, Celestia banished her sister to the moon, traveled to my world and back, pulled me back from the death and taking these into count, I was sure that a foolish God like Discord would not have been a problem for her...

But hearing that Celestia sent Twilight Sparkle's 'friendship letters' - just mentioning, Dhanthas was having way too much fun with all this friendship importance - back to her and she was able to learn another lesson... it did make sense in the end. Again, Celestia just proved herself to be a big player...

However, my question remained present...

Then came that Queen Crysalis, queen of the changelings. Now, this story was much more interesting than the previous laughing stock. Changelings reminded me about Harpies and the queen was like a stronger Harpy... a rather unique Harpy for that matter. Harpies are known to have the Ability to change forms and swindle the oblivious preys into doing what they want. Meanwhile, they suck away the prey's Energy - if it's an A'nforian - and soul. Therefore, the prey will die eventually if he or she remains under the Illusion Ability or Spell.

Now, this queen wasn't just a great Harpy, but a unique one. She wasn't aiming for Energy or longer life, by stealing the soul ever so slowly. No, she was like a Vampire, hungry for love...

Dhanthas immediately shouted: ''Attention whore!''

Her 'children' were no difference and how she planned the whole thing out, was highly to my liking. Finally, I was able to hear a proper enemy and even Twilight Sparkle and her friends used some slight violence against these drones... and by slight violence, I mean nothing serious, just some pathetic knocking-outs to be able to run away...

But what ruined it for me, you ask. Well, it was something, that made Dhanthas laughing even harder, than the magic of friendship... and it didn't stop him from making a joke, either...

''The Power of Love compels you! AHHAAHHAA!''

Comically, Twilight Sparkle's brother and a THIRD Princess, blasted out the changelings from Equestria. And guess what, instead of stopping the couple from finishing their attack, the queen foolishly underestimated the 'Power of Love' and just let them gather immense amount of Energy...

And guess what, it didn't kill the bugs, no no no, it wasn't that easy. The blast sent them flying away, screaming in defeat... They were using violence against the ponies and how they react to that? With love... brilliant...

I kinda respected them for that, because if you can win a fight without using less advantage against your enemy, then that means you are stronger and better than that. In this case, the changelings got defeated by gentle banishment and not with the same amount of violence, like they showed. These ponies were better than those clones and that is the only reason why I just stayed silent and didn't tell Twilight Sparkle, the Element of Magic, that I thought they were and are ridiculous...

So, without asking her if she knew actually what war or violence meant, I found it out myself... they know shit about a proper fight. Celestia was the only one, who tried to put up one, but this queen seemed to be stronger. At first, I tried to figure out what was her intention by letting herself to be defeated... then remembering back how everyone- ... everypony turned back to changelings, I was able to figure it out.

The disguised changelings used Celestia's love towards the loyal subjects, weakening her AND gaining an upper... hoof?

Back to the previous topic... well, you could understand why I changed my mind immediately. From what I had gathered from Twilight Sparkle's tales, Equestria turned out to be the land of equines, peace and harmony. And there I was, a foreign being from a highly dangerous world. My influence in their lives were already too much and to think that I promised Celestia, that I will tell her and some future 'friends' about my past... yeah, ehhee... Fuck. No.

That Rainbow Dash already said it: ''Monster.'' And if I tell them what I had achieved and how, then all of them will be scared to no end... and I think I said this many times before, but you know what happens, when a soul is afraid of something...

Also, leaving out my mistakes would be self-pitying in order to get attention. Those EMO kids come to mind, when I think about complaining to others. I have had and will have a harsh faith, no matter how much I disagree with it or voice out my displeasure. Someone has to be The Avatar and unfortunately... the arrow landed on me...

Before I over-thinking my future, I just settled with NOT telling anyone, anything. And to make sure of it, I asked the unicorn...

''Why is Celestia called Sun Princess and Princess Luna as Night Princess? Is it some sort of belief, that the rulers are that powerful?'' I hoped she wasn't part of this 'religion' of some sort. The only thing I needed is living among religious inhabitants and in all honesty, I cared less about that and wanted to stay away from it. I may have a cross, which could indicate a religion, but it was just the symbol of The Light. It had no connection to any kind of religion... but I had already explained that...

The unicorn looked surprised by my question, but answered nonetheless. ''Uhm, no. Princess Celestia rises the sun each morning and lowers it in the evening, to allow Princess Luna to rise the moon and place the stars on the sky. There is no such belief, Outsider. This is a fact and that is how Equestria works... why do you ask?''

Instead of answering, I remained silent. For the whole time, I just kept on walking, ignoring now each and every equine around me, involving Twilight Sparkle too. My mind was going through a 'stuck' period of time, not letting me to think about anything else, but what Celestia told me one time. When I told her, that I will wake up when the sun does, she said that it is the same like waking up when SHE does...

''Celestia... you ultimately tricked me...''

_________________________________________________________________________________________________

The third time I found myself mentally beating my being. The third time I had to reveal Celestia's tricks' success. And I haven't thought about how she looked like, being afraid and actually, refusing to believe that this land only had equines. No, I denied this and I was not about to think that Celestia was just another pony or the same Alicorn race amongst the ponies, like her sister, Princess Luna. Sure, it would have given me an answer about what kind of thing she used on my forehead to send me away, but I still sticked with that magic wand or some sort...

I wasn't about to ask Twilight Sparkle, either. I wanted to find it out on my own and when I'll be facing Celestia someday, then I'll be pleasantly surprised... and no, in both ending, I will be pleasantly surprised, no matter how Celestia will look...

''Why did you fall so silent?'' Asked the unicorn at last, snapping me out of my internal raging.

''Just drop the topic...'' I told her, sighing to add more passion into it and let her know that I mean it.

To my fortune, she didn't ask any further and instead, declared our arrival at the destination. ''Here we are, the Mayor's house.''

I looked up at the two stories tall tower-like building, with a viewpoint on its top and recalling seeing it at one point, while aimlessly wandering around town. It was close to that square, where I was sitting near the fountain, in the middle of the large area.

This building - I predicted - was some sort of office, given how big it was. Twilight mentioned it in her little tale, saying that this was the place for the Summer Sun Celebration, whatever what that supposed to represent. So, given this fact, it was not a surprise to see how big it was. If it was able to contain nearly the whole town, then Ponyville wasn't that crowded after all...

Two balconies, on top of each other, all around the building and a terrace could be found around it too, with wooden fence. The same wood type was used for the beams, that were holding the balconies and the walls themselves. Many windows, providing a bright environment inside and for all the rooms inside. This building's roof was made from only wood, nicely curved out to the shape of a dome.

Stairs were leading up to the terrace and only one entrance were there as double-doors. Before this rounded terrace and between each staircase leading up to the one meter high terrace, there were small gardens, with some bushes and grass.

It was like the building's area had been placed on grassy grounds, then got ripped out from there and into Ponyville's dusty grounds... maybe it was because Discord...

I followed after the unicorn, skipping a stair to remain next to her and not behind her from below. The reason why equines tuck their tails close to their hind-legs, is because they are hiding their private areas from peeking. Unfortunately, they can only prevent this from behind, from the sides and from the front, but not from below. Even if it's hard to see theirs from below, it is still safe to not let anyone under you, if you are an equine...

I opened the door, letting Twilight Sparkle in first and then moving into the doorway, facing towards the town. To be precise I looked straight into the eyes of those ponies, who had been following us ever since we started our way to the Mayor's house. A group of males, thinking that they could scare me away, by watching. However, they did not expect me to shoot them a death glare, making them to quickly look away and try to act casually. To be honest, they did an awfully bad acting...

Resuming to ignore them again, I closed the door and caught up with my guide, who was walking up the stairs on the left side of the hall. On the far side of this hall, there was a short stage, acting as a spot for speeches. The town probably had a usual gathering, which was expected from a small community like Ponyville. Above this stage, was a balcony and all around the room, the first floor was visible and allowed for the pe- ponies to look down from behind the wooden handrails... hoofrails? From the first floor, it was available to go outside to the outer balcony or to just look outside, given how many windows and glass doors were there.

As of right now, it wasn't decorated for any kind of upcoming gathering, so the beams and brown walls weren't decorated and the wooden floor was fully visible, as no carpet was rolled out on it. On the right, there was another staircase leading up to the first floor again and on both sides of the stage, a crimson curtain covered gateway, probably leading behind the scenes...

I followed after Twilight Sparkle and upon getting to the first floor, she did a one-eighty, approaching the stairs behind us. They were at the front side of the building and the other staircase, that was coming from the other side, merged together with that staircase, that we were climbing. Where they got connected, leading further up were the final few steps in one wider staircase to the second floor. There was a corridor directly before us and two more were running alongside the windows and glass doors to the round balcony. In that way, the office rooms' walls were connected with each other with the Mayor's office at the end of the corridor, in an 'U' shape. Pretty clever work for keeping the 'open' touch for the inside, while using up the space fairly...

Walking past the offices, Twilight Sparkle and I arrived at the main office's door, which had a golden sign on it, saying 'Mayor Mare'. I knocked on the door twice and waited for a response to be heard.

''It's open!'' An old-yet lively voice called out and to my surprise, it wasn't annoyed, bored or stern as I predicted. I forgot that it was Equestria and not Earth, where the souls are doing jobs, which are not to their liking... does that mean in Equestria, every... pony has a decent job if not better? It didn't matter, because I was about to find it out in time...

I opened the door for the unicorn. ''Ah, Twilight Sparkle, what a pleasant surprise!'' I heard the oldish female, apparently sounding really cheerful. Well, sadly, her current mood was about to be changed...

I stepped inside, closed the door and her heartily chuckling died out, as she froze in place. Pale-blue eyes slightly wide behind her glasses and her fore-hooves rooted themselves into her office table, as she was just about to get out of her green office chair. Her curved lips ever so slowly shifted into a straight line and that was my cue to finally speak up...

''Good afternoon, Miss Mayor. I have come to acquire the keys for my new house in this pleasant town. Here is Princess Celestia's letter...'' I reached into my pockets, walked up confidently to the desk and placed it there, taking a few steps back. I had enough of these freaking-outs, so it was understandable to just get down to business and not start reassuring her that I won't bite. If I do everything without having additional thoughts about what is happening actually, then I was sure that they will just let go of the fact, that they're talking to a mysterious creature. You know, mutual feelings traveling through the air; if you do something special without making a big fuss over it, then others will get used to it quickly; sharing the same mood like your partner and all of these were true and I used them in this situation thoughtfully.

It seemed to work, because she only gave me one careful glance before coughing once and picking up the letter in her hoof. While she was reading, I took a glance around, noting the average look of the office. Blue carpet, pale walls, wooden bookshelves and shelves. A simple office desk and chair and behind the Mayor was a glass door to the balcony. The view outside was spectacular, I must had to admit. In the distance Canterlot and the sun was above both Ponyville and the city on the mountain from that point of view. Looking a bit lower, I spotted the tree library and turning my attention lower, I saw the grey maned, pale-brown colored female equine, just finishing the letter.

''Ahem.'' She cleared her throat, before putting on - to my pleasant surprise - a smile. ''Well, the letter's seems to be real and it had our great ruler's hoofwriting and sign, along with the royal seal.'' She leaned down in her seat, disappearing behind her desk for a moment. Coming back up, she placed the a ring of keys onto the desk and taking a few steps forward, I picked up the pair of keys. One was for the entrance door, having the number '97' on it... conveniently... And the other one was a more simple key, having a larger size as well.

''Here are your house keys. The number shows the number of your house and it's used for that house's door. The other one is for the rooms, so make sure to open all of them when you get there.'' She explained, while leaning down again and this time, pulling out a map and some documents... I expected the paper work...

''I give you this map about Ponyville, so you'll always remember where you live. And it's exactlyyy~'' She checked the documents, then picked up a quill to mark it on the map. ''Here! Now, I just have to share the news with the rest of the building and you'll be officially a Ponyville citizen. The Mail Mare won't be dropping any mail, newspapers or packages for a few days, but anything that will be sent to you, will be sent to you somehow. Everything will be just fine!''

I picked up the map and took a look at it. I felt delightful, when I found out that my house was slightly near the end of the town, close to an entrance and on the side of Ponyville, which was closer to Canterlot. The library was halfway down from my house, just like the Mayor's house. The Element of Honesty, Applejack, had her farm on the bottom left corner of the town; the ginger bread house was a bit closer to the center and on one of the sides of that square, where I sat by the fountain. Also, this square seemed to be the market place, given how many tents and stands were drawn around the fountain and in that square. My house was a bit left from the top right corner of the town and opposite to that, on the left side of the town and exactly as far from the top left corner like my house was from the top right one, there was a park and a bit to the left of this park, was a school. There were also shops, restaurants, cafes and such on the map as well, already showing the locations for some useful places, which I will have to visit more often...

''Much appreciated. Are there anything I will have to do, in connection with the paperwork?'' I asked, putting away the map and keys into one of my inside pockets of my hoodie.

''Oh, there is no need for that, Mr. Adam. Her majesty had already taken care of that before your arrival. Enjoy your stay in Ponyville!'' Son of a-...

''W-what did you call him?'' Shit...

''Fucking go!'' ''Leave the building, quickly!''

''Adam, that is what the Princess written down in here. Why, Miss Sparkle?'' Fuck...

''Have a wonderful day!'' I kept my cool attitude and approached the door, taking one glance at the unicorn's expressions. From confusedly looking at the Mayor, she turned her look of disbelief towards me, then watching me leaving with a slightly offended look.

And right there, I experienced what it feels like to be discovered in the most unpleasant and awkward way...

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Illusion: One of the Power Trees.

With the usage of Energy, you send waves of false reality into the mind of your target. Thus, the target's well being will be a disadvantage for him/her in a fight, making your job easier...

- Requires great knowledge. (If you want to learn it, but if you have Illusion Abilities/Spells on your own already, then you just have to Tune them and use them, as a second-nature thing...)

- Requires knowing how to transfer emotions or events into your Energy wave, to give that to your target to confuse him/her. (In other words, your imagination have to be superb, you have to be able to focus on two things at once and your will have to be strong, to actually be able to transfer Energy into something else or something INTO Energy...)

- The more Energy you use, the stronger/longer the effect will be on the target... or both at the same time.

- Certain emotions/events needs more Energy to be done into an Energy wave. (Making the target to be scared from you is a bit harden, making the target to have a hard time at focusing. However, this is soul-depending, since some soul can transfer fear into Energy easier, since that is how they are. OR the target is braver than an ordinary soul, thus making the sent-out fear less effective... or you just imagined the wrong type of fear for that target... not everyone is afraid of clowns...)

- Creating events in front of the target (Hallucination) requires not just more Energy, but better imagination and the longer event you want him/her to picture, the more you need of these to be used...

- WARNING: The sent-out Energy wave's speed could scatter out the transfered emotions/events from itself, thus making the Illusion less effective and avoidable, since the target will realize that it is an Illusion...

- Pro Tip: Knowing the basics of Reanimating, could lead you to learn Possessing. (The two is completely different from Illusion!) Combine Reanimation skills and Illusion skills to Tune Possession Abilities/Spells or learn it from books or from someone...

- Pro Tip: If your target can't realize that you hit him with an Illusion Spell/Ability, then try to keep it as a secret. If he/she realizes it, then the Illusion could break, if your target knows how to ignore the false visions and feelings.

- Pro Tip: Be wary of Illusion knowing souls, because they are usually bad souls...
