View More(This thread will be containing the final story sequence of an ongoing story Arc the involved the Prince along side his Brother Prince Solaris and Fiancee Queen Lesa. For those that followed along or are interested, Subbing to said thread is obviously okay.) A dark tone was set in place. A tone and feeling of eerie intent and evil. A tone so intense and filled that it seemed to envelope the whole of the Princes' Castle. A feeling that didn't get past the Prince of the Night. He was silent as he glanced out the large windows of the Library. It was time. He could feel it in his body. The Confrontation was on the way. It was the day he was preparing for. It was out of his hooves now. Fate would decide the outcome. "Arty?...What's wrong?" Spoke a Lunar that was next to him, this Lunar being the head Personal Guard of the Lunar Army. She was also the adopted Daughter of the Prince. Artemis would speak nothing at first as he simply pointed out the window. One glance out, the situation of terror could be spotted. A storm was approaching as if out of nowhere. Dark and horrid looking as it seemed to be approaching the Castle itself. The sky itself was becoming clouded and dark. A show was about to be taking place it seems. And Both Princes were going to be center stage. "Evacuate the Castle..." Was all he said as those words would spring everything into action! Kirra would waste no time in spreading orders. Orders were simply laid. Get the workers out and get civilians in the Castle to a safe place. An alarm was rung. This would signal the evacuation process as the loud alarm sounds rung through the Castle. The Sun Prince and the Fiancee of the Prince will now know that it was time. As for the Lunars and Solars? They knew their mission. Keep everypony safe and get everypony out. Use any means. Secret entrances and all. Everypony needed to clear out as fast as possible. If any hostiles were to appear? Their life over the lives of the citizens. Artemis took calm breaths as he grabbed the device around his neck. The one that was saving his life and keeping him alive. The one that was made for him by his best friend. A device that was keeping him stable with dark magic. Glancing at it, he'd whisper. 'Nightmare....it's time for you to come home...."

Prince Solaris

Solaris let out a sigh of relief, hearing the doctor's words. "That was the final stitch, Sire. You should be all set and ready to go.

View MoreSolaris let out a sigh of relief, hearing the doctor's words. "That was the final stitch, Sire. You should be all set and ready to go. Still take it a little easy on any heavy activities, since the the very inside may be healing still. If you notice you're feeling light headed all of a sudden, come see me, alright? Don't want to risk any internal bleeding," the doctor simply instructed as he started to clean up. Solaris rolled his eyes slightly, "Not my first stabbing, doctor, but thank you. I'll keep you upda-" Before Solaris could even finish his sentence, the alarm started going off. Both he and the doctor glanced outside, to see what was happening. It was time. The doctor glanced to Solaris, worried. He knew of the fight the Princes were about to face, but Solaris was making his way out of the medbay and towards the library already. As he made his way there, his horn lit up with magic, summoning forth his battle armor, piece by piece. Each one appearing on him with easy and haste, thanks to countless years and battles of experience. When he reached the library? It seems he was the first one there to make it. Well, aside from a few of Solaris' generals being there. "You three already know what's happening. The other generals are off working with Arty's Personals to help guide the effort and work of the Guards as evacuation goes down. You three, I have entrusted to evacuate any artifacts, books and anything else of importance and power from the castle and into a safehouse, should Arty and I fall in our battle. Torment can have the castle, but prevent him from getting anything else at all costs. Understood? Anything you three take from the castle, should we fail, could be the very tools used to help protect and safeguard the kingdom's future. No pressure, right?" Solaris ends his little speech with a joke, making the generals chuckle for a second. They all saluted Solaris, wished him luck, and went along their way. They prayed for the best, but were preparing for the worst. Meanwhile, Solaris turned around to face the entrance of the library. Arty, and/or Lesa, should be arriving at any time now.

Solaris wouldn't be waiting much longer outside the Library, as Artemis had returned to the entrance of the Library.

Solaris frowned a little, hearing about the exit block.

Solaris simply glared at Torment, though Arty could see from being so close to him that he was actually thinking/analyzing as well.

Unsurprisingly, Torment didn't seem to move an inch. Even with the shot from Solaris, whizzing close to him, he stayed his focus locked on the two Princes.

Nopony knew for how long time was stopped as the spell had took place. Solaris and Lesa were just a millisecond late on the draw. Torment was desperate. So desperate in fact that he didn't consider what the first shot from the bow had done. His magic was off and unaligned. His control was off as he was still taking effects from the first shot. What this led to was the spell's proximity being larger then he would have preferred. Instead of teleporting himself? He did that, but also accidentally brought some passengers. As the spell ended, time seemed to resumed. The loud sounds of the arrow and the spear hitting a surface could be heard. This showed that both had put some power into their shots. However...Torment was nowhere to be found. That in itself was a problem because it meant a few thing. The biggest thing being that Lesa missed a shot. However....there was a bigger problem. And it was basically where they were standing. A quick look around would reveal a rather troubling situation. They....weren't in the throne room anymore. Let alone the Castle. The best way to describe the area they were now at would be easier said then done. They both, including an unconscious Artemis, would be standing on a stone bricked circle. The circle having pillars surrounding it. Some cracked and other's cut in half. Seemed like an aged ruin. Showing cracks and moss. A very...dark moss. The next observation would be...well..the air. The air felt thick. Still breathable, but as if it was tainted. It kinda felt heavy as if there was a constant chill, but the kind of chill that is just meant to make you uncomfortable. Any pony with a sense of magic could possibly already feel what was in the air. Dark Magic. An not just any dark magic. Dark Magic of the richest kind. Almost as if the air was filled with the source of dark magic itself. It felt that intense. The final observation that could be made? Above. The sky. No clouds, No sun. None in sight. The only thing that was visible? A Moon. A really, really big moon. Or one would say a moon that appears to be a lot closer. It looked...lifeless. No shine or white to show it's beauty. It honestly was a very sad sight. The only thing that made it sadder was the constant flow of purple light leaking off of it, filling the sky. Is that where the dark magic was coming from? Interesting. So this was the situation it seemed. The Dark World? It was real. The legends and stories Artemis had heard or have been told? They were true. A place with unlimited amounts of magic potential. And Torment was there with them somewhere. Question was? Where? Artemis was still unconscious, but....maybe not for long. Considering Torment might have accidentally brought to his base the most dangerous creature to ever bring to a world of Dark magic. Wherever Torment was? He will soon figure out that he has to Eliminate Artemis as quick as possible now!
