-TERRARIA, CAMELOT CASTLE: DINING ROOM-

The morning continues to progress as Twilight, Starlight, Shadow thunder, Linn, Queen Amore, and Princess Cadence were enjoying their breakfast.

A number of maids, waiters, and kitchen workers were currently exiting and entering the dining room; various food items placed on the rectangular-shaped table. From spires of fruit sat upon a fountain-like foundation, to well-cooked eggs, bacon, pancakes, nearly every breakfast item one could ever think of.

Both Shadow thunder and Starlight Glimmer sat next to one another, while Twilight and Linn sat on the opposite side of them. Queen Amore sat at the width of the table, easily capable of looking at them with a forward gaze, as Princess Cadence sat beside her.

Of course, this wasn’t truly The Princess.

With a satisfied ‘mmm’, Starlight comments:

“This is so good!” The unicorn currently has a slice of pancake floating before her muzzle, “You’re lucky Pinkie Pie isn’t here, she’d be raiding your kitchen.”

Shadow Thunder chuckles, “Given what she’s capable of, I would be surprised if she hasn’t already.”

Both Linn and Twilight laugh in response.

“Knowing Pinkie, that’s all too true,” Twilight comments as she has multiple bananas present before her. However, her eyes widen with a sense of fear as she sees what Linn is eating: A breakfast Quesadilla.

The alicorn shudders, “I-is t-that a Quesadilla…?”

“Mwmf?” Linn responds with chunks of her breakfast in her mouth. A stream of melted cheese was dangling from the Quesadilla, a result from Linn’s recent bite. She swallows her meal, “Of course. It’s a breakfast-”

“I’ll save you, Linn!” Twilight interjects. The alicorn fires up her horn, tears the pink-haired terrarian’s meal away, and throws it high into the air before vaporizing it with a small lightning spell.

Everyone looks on with dumbstricked features as the ‘ashes’ of Linn’s Quesadilla falls onto the table.

“Phew,” Twilight says as she wipes her head with a forehoof, “That was cl-”

“What the hell, Twilight?!” Linn exclaims in annoyance, then grabs onto the alicorn’s cheeks with both hands, “That was my favorite type of Quesadilla!”

As this goes on, Starlight, Shadow Thunder, and Queen Amore starts to laugh in response. Princess Cadence simply stares on, but forces a laugh without anyone noticing.

“Buf Quefafillas arf so cheefy,” Twilight tries to say as her facial cheeks are pulled away.

Linn lets go of the alicorn’s cheeks, “You wrecked my meal simply because it was covered in cheese?! What kind of fear is that?!”

Twilight raises a forehoof, “Quesadillas are the absolute menace of the world! Not even the Crimson Biome could compare to it!”

“Whaaaaaat?!” Linn questions in absolute disbelief.

Starlight was now laughing hysterically as she leaned onto Shadow Thunder for support, who was also laughing.

“You are a very interesting individual, Twilight,” Queen Amore comments after giggling to herself, “You’re such a refreshing presence here, and I adore every last bit of it.”

Twilight laughs sheepishly, “Ehehe, um, sorry about that.”

“Tell that to my Quesadillas’ ashes…” Linn responds while pointing at the ashes in question.

The Queen then sighs contentedly and rises off of her seat, “I’d like to see you all in the throne room once you’ve finished your meals,” She turns to The Princess, “Shall we be off, my dear?”

“Sure thing, mom!” Cadence responds.

The two royals bow respectfully to those still enjoying their meal, although Linn stares at Twilight with a pout, as the duo leaves the dining room together.


-TERRARIA, ACROPOLIS-

Fluttershy, Athena, Echo Silhouette, Rarity, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie, with Shroom in her grasp, are currently flying high in the skies of Terraria. The cool breeze fluttering their manes and hair.

However, when it came to those without any natural means of flight, what was most interesting was the fact that they weren’t using their Rocket Boots. Not this time.

“I absolutely adore these wings, daaarling!” Rarity exclaims gleefully. “I look just like an alicorn! Ohoho.”

Fluttershy was currently positioned next to the winged unicorn as she comments:

“I’m really impressed with how easily you and Applejack were able to adjust to them.”

Both Echo and Athena were flying in the lead, but Applejack and Rainbow Dash were positioned behind Fluttershy and Rarity.

“You’re doing awesome, AJ,” Rainbow Dash comments; flying beside her marefriend, “I’m right here if you need me.”

“This is ah’mazin’, Rainbow,” Applejack responds, flapping her Angel Wings, “It feels so natural to me. Ah’ thought fer sure there’d be some learnin’ curve.”

“Athena did say that you’d learn to use them the moment you ‘equipped’ them,” The cyan mare responds. “And they look amazing on you!” Suddenly, a thought comes to the pegasus, “Hey, AJ?”

“Yes, sugarcube?”

“Well, I was wondering. After our training is done, and we head to Camelot, maybe we-”

“The answer is a definite yes, RD,” Applejack interjects. “Ah’d love to go out with ya’. It’s the first date we’ll ever have, now that ah’ think about it,” The cowmare chuckles, “Y’all actually beat me to it. Ah’ was gonna ask you the same thin’.”

Rainbow spins around in a celebratory fashion, “Awesome! I’m paying for the check!” She declares while pointing her forhoof towards the cowmare.

Suddenly, a certain pink mare flies and zooms past the group as she holds Shroom in her forehooves, “Woohooo! This is so much fun! I love flying!” Pinkie Pie exclaims happily.

As the pink pony began to perform various barrel rolls and circular motions, Athena chuckles in response before saying:

“Seeing her this happy would bring a smile to Oblivion’s face, and Harmony.”

Echo turns towards the Ancient, “By the way, Lady Athena, what was it that you wanted to ask of me?”

Athena glances at the humanoid changeling, “I want you to transform into a very particular foe for these trainees. I believe you studied its form thanks to Anubis’s archives, yes?”

Echo nods, “ Myself, Harmony’s piece, and Lord Anubis were there during the battle with Cthuhlu. I know exactly how Razeem looks, even in person.”

……….

The group continued to fly for a few more minutes as Athena’s grand domain came into view.

As they drew closer, they could all see various seraphs flying around the multitude of Sky Islands that circled around the largest, Athena’s personal home and palace. However, the eyes of the ponies shot wide open as they gazed upon the serpentine form of a large entity: A Wyvern.

Rainbow Dash was absolutely stunned by this as she comments:

“That one’s even bigger than the one I ran into some time ago.”

Applejack shoots her head towards the cyan pegasus, “Ya’ what?!”

Rainbow Dash immediately regrets this as she laughs sheepishly and says:

“N-nothing, AJ, nothing at all… hehe…”

Applejack raises an eyebrow, “Ah’ know yer’ lyin’, RD…”

The cyan pegasys flails her forehooves in defense, “Ok, ok, to be fair, Twilight asked me to explore that Sky Island.”

“And what did ya’ do when that giant creature attacked ya’?” Applejack questions.

“I flew away! I promise, I didn’t try to fight it!” The pegasus answers.

Applejack sighs in relief, “Ah’m glad to hear it. We’re gonna have to work on your overconfidence, sugar.”

“Woohooo!” Pinkie Pie exclaims suddenly, flying past the duo.

Applejack smirks, “Ah’m shocked ya’ ain’t tryin’ to challenge Pinkie to a race, RD.”

The pegasus rolls her eyes, “No way! I already know how that’d end. She already leaves me in the dust WITHOUT flying,” Rainbow looks to Pinkie Pie, flying around several Sky Islands of Athena’s domain, and looks back to the cowmare, “She’s got wings now. No way am I gonna beat that.”

The cowmare chuckles, “Well, she is Pinkie Pie, afterall.”

……….

The group were now landing on Athena’s largest Sky Island, her palace positioned on top of it, as they admired the structure’s beauty.

“Oh my goodness. Your home looks absolutely delightful, darling,” Rarity comments with starry eyes, “The silver pillars, the golden rooftops and walls, ah, it’s absolutely divine!”

“Ooh, look what I found, everyone!” Pinkie Pie exclaims from nearby.

Everyone else turns towards the pink mare as the smaller form of Shroom is currently poking an unconscious Vinny The Demolitionist; currently in his terrarian form.

“Shroom?” The small truffle questions.

Athena rolls her eyes in response, “He’s alive, just exhausted, and it seems my spell wore off.”

Echo winces, “Poor guy,” He then shrugs, “Did sort of deserve it, though.”

Applejack and Rainbow Dash walks closer as the cyan pegasus asks:

“What exactly happened to him?”

As if on cue, a flock of seraphs landed before Athena, and bows respectfully.

“We welcome you back, my lady,” Brynhilda comments, then takes on a blush, “And we thank you for your recent donation~”

“Donation?” Rarity inquires.

Athena nods in response to Brynhilda, then glances back to Rarity, “Vinny managed to satiate their lust, for now,” She then turns towards Vinny’s form and bends the space around him, sending him away soon after.

“Wha’ ‘appened to em’?” Applejack questions.

“I sent him back to Home Town. Specifically, to The Nurse’s residence.” Athena responds.

Rarity looks around, seemingly looking for something or someone, and asks:

“Where is Fluttershy, dears?”

Athena chuckles, “She’ll be dropping by in just a second.”

On cue, a large Wyvern lands on the Sky Island but flips over as Fluttershy could be seen scratching its belly with her forehooves.

“You’re such a cute Wyvern, yes you are,” The yellow pegasus coos.

Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Rarity’s mouths all dropped in response; eyes shot wide open. Echo and Athena chuckle, while Pinkie Pie hops merrily around the Wyvern with the small form of Shroom on her back.
