Canterlon Monologue
Rumbling and screeching roused Luna from her slumber. Turning toward the window that overlooked the city of Canterlot, she removed her sleep mask. A flash of blinding light greeted the princess much to her shock forcing her to close her eyes and shield her face with a lace pillow. A light so intense, so pervasive the azure princess felt heat caress her fur through the curtains of her bed. The low and vexatious screeching raised into a crescendo. Soon the noise stirred into a wild roar, the screech succeeded into the groan of metal. Any idea of the disturbance being a prank from her sister was replaced with shock when Luna teleported herself to the balcony overlooking Canterlot.

Looking above toward her moon, she gazed upon the source that

But that it reminded her of the thousand years spent on a barren moon with not a single soul to comfort her. She felt a kindred spirit. One that she felt obligated to reach out to.

Deep within EverFree, a blackened plume of smoke rose past the treetops. Glowing heat and cinder danced freely, lighting dimly the crater and the foliage that jutted from the scorched earth in an orange light. Entire scores of trees and flora cleared by the skidding impact leaving a barren trail to the darkened crater where the ominous lights leaked. Not just the light from the sweltering heat and charred trees, but another light. An unnatural, artificial white light.

From the depths, unseen machinery whirred to life. The sound, as if wheels of steel rotated at impossible speed. The metallic stirring frightened off droves of glowing eyes and stirred awake small critters hours shy of their proper waking hour.

As dawn approached and the heat quelled under the winds of an approaching rainstorm. A hiss emerged from the pit as Celestia's sun rose. The sound began life slowly, controlled, but loud. As time went on the noise died out, as if losing steam. A clunk of metal and humming emanated from the pit. From the hole, voices echoed from off the hollowed earth as if being trapped in a

    The splashes of the freezing spillway mixed with the cold wind coming off the water sent chills down my back. I yawned, the loud purr of the tugboat next to us made it impossible to hear my uncle ask if I was tired. We were passing the train of barges right after we left the launch and were headed into the woods. I have done all this before. It was all familiar to me. The only difference was that I had never been out here this early. The eerie white light of the moon was the only thing that let us see right now. Luckily for us the moon was huge and full tonight. It was about 4:30 in the morning and we were speeding into the swamps of the spillway. I looked at my uncle and I saw him standing up, driving the boat, with a smile on his face. This was his job and he loved it. When you love the wilderness, being out in the woods for eight hours a day was a treat. Especially when it ended with picking up a paycheck of about a thousand dollars at the end of each of those days.…

    Her blouse was gone, replaced by a simple black dress. As soon as she got up to look around, she noticed that the environment around her was entirely different than that of the drive-in restuarant or her house. The sky was black, encompassed by large glowing rings of what looked to be ancient texts, and on its horizon was a rather large-looking moon. Connie felt oddly calm in this place, the red grass contrasted nicely with the dark sky. As she scanned her surrounding she found a path leading down.…

    His fire was a bluff of life in the withering carcass of his company. Walton stood staring at the sands around him. The dunes rose and fell with the hypnotic rhythm of ocean waves, gusts of wind scattering the nighttime sand through the air like a silver whip. Above him the sky opened in a vast display of constellations he had forgotten the names of, each star pulsing a small but vibrant light.…

    The encompassing fog obscured all vision and her fear hung on the distinct possibility of running into something unyielding or worse falling into a deep chasm. Until suddenly realizing that wouldn’t be feasible as her feet weren’t touching the ground. They floated inches above on the white haze that encircled her legs.

    The clouds became thick obscuring the moon. They seethed cruelly in the moonlight, as dark as a witch’s Sabbath. The moons mercury flush was no longer to be seen, just the mourning cloaks of black. The wind bellows disturbed and in a place of agony. His boat keeled, the sail quavered, the timber planks buckled. The bottom of the boat creaked and dithered. An alarmed school of fish hurried underneath his boat. He felt isolated he could just see the infinite sea in front and some pockmarked lights in the distance too far for him to reach.…

    I scampered around looking for shelter as the rain started to pitter patter against the forest floor. But almost as if by a miracle I stumbled upon a cave that had been made in the base of the mountain just as a tremendous lightning strike and thunder convulsed all around me. In the process of diving into the cave’s opening I scraped my forearm against the coarse dry ground of the cave and filled my mouth with the taste of old gritty earth, however, despite my injuries and horrid taste in my mouth I was safe from the storm.…
