Meeting the mommy... again?!; Rought Cut & Glamour [10 February 5151]

One hour. That is how long the flight there took. Utopia had been a bit reluctant at first, but she took the form of a giant eagle, big enough for Rough Cut and Chibi Lovecraft Glamour to ride on. However it was a bit... Complicated. Utopia feared if they were to accidentally fall off her, so she always panicked at any sudden feeling. And she had also put her memory to test, following the scents she was reminded of when Lovecraft took her to meet her mother. "It's here..." she chirped when they landed in fron of the cave. She, of course, awaited until they had their hooves on the ground, before she reverted into her Dream Reaper self.

It smelled like her mother here. But there was something wrong though. It didn't smell quite right. It was just… Different. Glamour would have been more scared had Utopia not been eating her fear away. She was afraid of heights ever since she had fallen down and broken a lot of legs. It had hurt a lot.

Glimmer could smell Glamour as well, and the rocky dragon snorted steam in the air. Something didn't seem right about the scent. There was a good deal of… It was familiar. But wrong. Far far too wrong. Glimmer eased toward the entrance of the cave, towering over the three that were there. She looked like a walking geyser. There were even spikes that shot off steam like geysers did. If Glimmer were to curl up she would be very well be mistaken for actual ground. "The illusion I can get Lovecraft… But what's with this new smell of yours?"

Glimmer, Glamour's mother, was used to Lovecraft changing up her looks. But the smell was off.

Holy mother of Celestia. One whole bucking hour!

From the moment she got on until the moment she dismounted the Changling queen, which set aside Oh My worthy jokes for now, was a weird experience to begin with. Set aside that it was cold and windy and even with a second overcoat, an hour in the air at speed was cold as Nightmare Moon's Left Teat on the Moon. Nope. All that was nothing, nothing compared to the existential terror of flying. She'd never and now that she had, Rough Cut planned to never fly again.

She got down from the giant eagle and kissed the ground through her rime encrusted mask, the action helping to flake some of it off. Her goggles were not in much better shape, the insides had garnered some feathers of frost while the outside was covered in a layer of flash frozen ice. After she was done indulging the urge to feel like she wasn't about to die at any given second she got down to the buisness of knocking all the ice off her armor. Snow is a good insulator and it is an oddly warm building material. Ice, is not.

After about a minute she had a rather substantial pile of the stuff all around her, "Well that was fun!" She lied, "Lets never do it again." She continued in a dead pan tone of utter seriousness.

Then something talked. The ground? No it was higher up. Rough Cut stepped away from the sound, "Oh right. Her mom's a dragon, forgot that part." Her voice remained muffled by the mask over her face, the one keeping the decidedly not immortal pony's lungs from freezing.

Dream Reaper didn't have much time to joke on Rough Cut's actions, as soon Glimmer appeared. It was now her time to explain the situation. "I went to Prance to get my mind off of a 'problem', but then I saw a miasma spreading. And the one exhaling was none other than our Lovecraft... She was scared, SOMETHING there brought her so much fear she didn't stop to listen to me until I found her looking at some maps. She retains no memory of the Lovecraft I know, for some reason... But apparently knows well how to use her magic. Much better than my expectations... Do you think you could figure what happened?"

"Who's this?" Glimmer asked, more interested in the new earth pony than Lovecraft's new look and smell. "And where's the changeling you were with last time? As for the dear. It may have been some sort of dragon hide thing. Those give her the willies. Either way, don't worry. That stuff was just an illusion." Glimmer and Lovecraft hadn't talked since she had ascended, so Glimmer was assuming that this alikirin foalness was just an illusion.

Glamour's ears twitched. She hadn't even known that dragon hide stuff existed at this age. The idea was… Or would have been… Scary. Gross. Terrible.

Dragon hide! She'd forgotten all about those, that one tanning pony said the stuff if made right was tougher than steal, more flexible and it breathed better to boot! Of course, it was also the hide of an intelligent creature and a powerful one at that. Oh and that was ignoring the fact that breathing is exactly the opposite one wanted their gear to do when they were standing out in a snowstorm. In any case she snapped to as she realized too late she'd gotten caught up in contemplating the pros and cons of Dragon Scale armor. It was now on her mind that the dragon had addressed her specifically!

She felt her ears press against her head, this was far more intimidating than she ever could have imagined, but no she had to be strong! Cause she was strong. She had to speak up, address the being that was asking about he. She adjusted her weight, puffed her chest out just a bit, showing off the slightly banged up chest plate, she looked about as disheveled as she felt tiny. She prepared herself, mentally priming the words, I'm Rough Cut. And then she locked up, unable to think of a good way to finish the thought. She could go with any number of different titles, but as they bounced in and out of her head they sounded to her mind, petty and small. Eventually she stopped posing and looked around, "I'm Rough Cut, ma'am." In the end her name would have to do, the Order would require explaining or if she was unlucky would ignite a bit of disdain; adventurer no doubt would conjure up the idea what the armored mare was here to try and slay the mighty dragon and really that was all she had. Well aside from the titles her Fancolt kept thinking up. The buck was positively encourage-able.

Dream Reaper looked all confused when she was asked about 'that changeling'. She expected Glimmer to be more direct. As Rought Cut announced her presence, Dream Reaper felt like explaining this situation a little more. "Well, Rought Cut here was in Prance when the incident ocurred. I don't think it has anything to do with Dragon Hide, because Lovecraft was running away as if she feared someone would do something to her. Don't you think you could... You know, look into her memories and see if there's an explanation?". She felt she was forgetting something... But what?

Glimmer looked at Glamour and then back at the changeling. "You worry too much. She's all smoke and mirrors." But she supposed she'd do it just to humor them. Glimmer lowered herself to Glamour's level and looked her in the eyes.

Glamour felt the presence of her mother's mind, asking entrance. She granted it. It wasn't like she had anything to hide. She wanted to be home with her Mummy. Glamour padded over to her mother and clung her. She wasn't scared any more, with Utopia eating her fear. But it was still good to be home.

Glimmer, meanwhile, was stunned. "Holy Tahk. She's a foal. She's an actual factual foal…. Again." Crap.

And now she wasn't even close to the center of attention, for once she was fine with this. Being the center of attention for a Dragon wasn't exactly a good thing anyway, also it gave her some time to chew on the things being said. There was history around her, between the two alicorn like beings and the dragon mother herself. Most of it insisted on flying miles above her, but she was piecing a few parts of it together, for example 'the changeling' mentioned by the dragon: If she was around a while back then perhaps it was Utopia when she wasn't the Queen; because really, she couldn't have been the queen for all that long if there was a recent shift in who was in charge over in the hellhole the Changelings called home.

Utopia hadn't caught it though, Rough Cut considered that she might be wrong about that as she continued to listen to the rest of everything going on around her. She didn't bother however looking around much after the first glance about, once you've seen one set of badlands rock, you've seen them all and with the massive chill going on, it'd be a surprise if anything aside from their group, was trying to move around or hunt anyway.

"You mean... Even her memories have been reset?!" Dream Reaper sounded sad, and for a good reason: She loved Lovecraft a lot. And, suddenly, her loved one had no memories of her? This was awfully sad... No, there was something off. "I refuse to believe everything is lost! There MUST be any trace of recent events in her! But the question now is... If there is any, how will we access them? And how will we bring it back to her? Well, at least she retains her abilities and is a great healer.". Dream Reaper looked to Glamour, wondering how to bring old memories back.

Over fourteen thousand years it had been since Lovecraft had been a foal. And Glimmer had forgotten how very hard it had been. Yes, Glamour was a bit of a hellion. But she was a hellion even at the best of circumstances. And now she apparently, truly did have the powers of a T3 with her. And a healer. Amazingly. She would not have guessed. And neither had Glamour. Nor would she if the changeling weren't eating her fear.

"I don't know… We're going to have to contact… Its…" Glimmer squinted. "Glamour thinks it is Pyralis. But I've seen pictures of him. That's not him. There's no memory up to that point where she sees that alikirin. I don't know how to fix her. Nonetheless, probably beyond my abilities as I am." Whatever had done this was massively powerful. Far beyond her. Glimmer wanted to fix her daughter. But she had no idea how to.

Then she repeated herself in Prench so that her fawn could understand her, remembering that she couldn't understand Equestrian, then summed up what Utopia had said.

"Where's Daddy? Where's my Brother?" Glamour asked, Glimmer feeling a pang in her chest. It was sad.

OOC: Mind if we push the time back a bit for when this and the Prance thing happens? Any time after Jan 23rd would do. Tsuk is okay with it. You can choose the date Lor ^^

"Wow, this is..." She had no idea what was going on. Things had gone from flying somewhat in reach to way above, the dragon was namedropping world leaders and Utopia was following along just fine. She looked between the speakers, somewhat ignoring the one that wasn't speaking an understandable language, but things were not fully adding up, was this 'Pyralis' pony the little one's other parent? How did that even work anyway. Rough Cut found herself off track, trying to imagine exactly how a dragon and a pony of so disparate sizes would be able to get properly busy. The line of thought was somewhat difficult to fathom and was not making her look at appropriate parts of anypony present, foal excluded.

"Pyralis... ... I'll find him then!" Dream Reaper said, and then gave attention to Glamour, translating what she asked to Glimmer. The changeling queen had to find a way to fix things for her loved one... It was sad to see her without all those valuable memories. "Rough Cut, you aren't the only oblivious to who is Pyralis... And I'm very worried for my Love...". She nuzzled Glamour, to let her know that she would never leave her alone again.

"Why are you looking there?" Asked Glimmer as she noticed that the mare was looking at a most inappropriate place. She guessed she might like dragons. But Glimmer was too big for ponies now. And she figured it would be fair to warn her. "If you like dragons, try to be more conspicuous about it. Some dragons really don't take well to such crosses. I clearly am. But still. Be careful."

With that warning given her ears fell. "You're going to see Pyralis?" Glimmer mewed in fear. She couldn't help but fear for her daughter's life. "Best try and get some charms to keep you invisible. Lovecraft's invisibility never really was consistent at this age. Well… You could go as Tourists. But I still worry for my Lovecraft." Even more so because at this age Lovecraft hadn't had her cutiemark yet. And this, Glimmer knew enough to know, was an important time.

Illusions wasn't the only thing Glamour could have ever have specialized in. And the alternative… She hoped these two wouldn't lead Glamour to that. Particularly when dealing with dragons… It could be a deadly one.

Glamour's ears flared as her mother explained to her what was being said in Prench. Seeing Pyralis? She was going to see Pyralis? The monster under my bed? The nightmare fuel? Really?! Glamour squeaked. Glimmer repeated that in Equestrian for Rough Cut.

"You, my daughter. Are older than you can possibly know. Fifteen centuries, hundreds of years lived. Look at me. You know it is me, yet I look bigger. I am bigger. It is me. And you are you. Just wrong. But… Should you really take her to Pyralis? He did this to her last time. Who knows? He could kill her this time."

Rough blushed under her gear, "What, no! I was... No, honest. I like ponies! You scare me not excite!" She backed away a few steps, Sisters, just shut up! Rough shut up. And took to looking as far away from the inappropriate places as physically possible. She was mortified, how had, why had she been looking there of all places. So very rude.

She shook her head, shifting her vision from the sky to the ground, everything being done to not look at the dragon inappropriately. "Sure, alright." Just let the old as dirt ponies talk. That was the new plan, let them talk and figure things out until they could leave and she could stop being mortified about having given Glimmer a mental 'undressing'. Rough Cut flinched as she involuntarily was doing it again, she was definitely going to have to scrub something out with soap, those thoughts were wholly inappropriate!
