View MoreThe king sips on a hayshake idly, trying to cool down under a tree in the Canterlot marketplace. Having spent the last few remembered months in the frozen north, he was still very much unaccustomed to the Canterlot heat. Though he had taken steps to distance his appearance from this world's evil Sombra, most ponies still seemed wary to be around him, which suited him just fine for the most part. The king continued down the street, looking for something to catch his eye today.

View MoreMarina frequently visited Canterlot for work businesses, but today she was mainly there for leisure purposes, doing some casual shopping and such. she caught sight of Sombra from across the street, staring with a conflicted gaze. one part of her thought him to be a rather handsome unicorn (though not as handsome as her coltfriend), but the other part thought he reminded her of somepony from her past... she simply stared, debating whether or not she should approach him to ease her suspicions, or simply leave.
He cracks a smile at the suggestion. "*Somson?* All that does sound interesting, though.. Life away from the castle might just be what I need, especially knowing they've been hiding things from me."

"*Somson?* All that does sound interesting, though.. Life away from the castle might just be what I need, especially knowing they've been hiding things from me." He looks around and lowers his voice. "Something tells me not coming back to the castle tonight won't sit well with the castle guards.. I'd probably have to get away from Canterlot, and fast." Sombra removes his headband and tussles up his mane a bit.
“Yes, Somson. lose the cloak, too... hey...” an idea hits her. “Maybe I can find you a job? I’m working for my coltfriend’s company, and i’d need an extra hoof or two in the lab handling some very important things... things that you may be familiar with? or not, dont know.

You can be Somson, the.... employee!”
"Somson, the employee," he repeats out loud. "Well, I think I'd do more good not being kept inside the castle.. Alright, when do we leave?" Sombra finishes his tea and simply leaves a heavy bag of bits on the table as payment.
Jule would stop and stare, looking at Sombra like he was a ghost. After a moment, he sighed and said something along the lines of 'if only' before going back to walking down the street.
Sombra's ears perked up, feeling *something* nearby. After looking around the ponies in the area, Artemis immediately caught his eye. He approached cautiously, surprised to see not only an alicorn he didn't recognize, but one just out with the other ponies outside the castle grounds. "...hey there,"...

He approached cautiously, surprised to see not only an alicorn he didn't recognize, but one just out with the other ponies outside the castle grounds. "...hey there," he says as he trots up beside her, looking at her puzzledly.
She heard a noise, still looking at her quills as she spoke, "hello? I'm not royalty--please don't ask for a photo," she murmured, sounding anxious. "I'm definitely not a Princess."
