We’re Moving!
Tumblr media
That’s right! I am moving blogs to a new place where you can find these two characters - and I look forward to playing them in a new home (with a few others alongside the usual cast of characters to enjoy!
I know it may seem a little bit...sudden, but I feel it’s for the better (and convenience) that I do this.
It only feels right, odd as it may sound! I hope to see you there, my fellow mutuals! It’s still under construction and I’m still very much figuring things out as I go along on this new blog, but I feel it’ll be a bit more convenient than bouncing between two blogs all the time.
Here’s where I be now: @aflockoffeatheredmuses
I hope to see you there!

“Undead, indeed.” He turned to look at Terry, the grifftaur attempting to relax and calm himself down; during his talk about this magical disaster art known as ‘necromancy. One breath in, another breath out.. “Y-You can see why I’m a little reluctant to talk about it, yeah?”
cloudhoppinggriffon‌:
“You can do that, but the kicker is..” He winced. Oh, there was no dancing around the bush for this; he had to outright say it. “..They’d be undead. Or at worse, a thrall of a body for someone’s whims when it comes to necromancy.”
Tumblr media
  “ U-Undead?” The centaur thought for a moment on what that actually meant but it was pretty easy to understand… They’d be dead but…. not quite dead. It was a hard concept to grasp but hearing that they’d be more likely under the conrol of someone didn’t sound nice.
  “ That sounds pretty awful… So…. People who use that magic use it to control the dead?” He felt kind of sick just thinking about it. “Thats… J-Just awful.”

“I’ve heard it possible before. Never seen it happen myself, but..” The topic of this dark magic brought a nervous set of fingers against the back of his neck. Necromancy was an art that the priest himself didn’t like to think about, let alone acknowledge it existed.
“..It’s an art that’s mostly associated with those less savory.”
  He noticed the unsavoury tone that caught in Gordon’s voice as he spoke of the subject and the taur cause see how uncomfortable it was making him feel and he could sort of understand why.
Tumblr media
  “ But… Wouldn’t it be a good thing? To bring someone back? Like your friends and even family? You’d get to save them and see them again!”

“..Fair play for you, actually. I’m merely just taking a stab at a theory, but if what you say is true, information on your species may be hard to find..” The griffon sighs, running a claw through a tuft of his head; before.. relaxing for the matter, and letting the subject drop. Onto another topic. “..On an unrelated note: Do you like it here in this school?”
[Gordon] "Studying hard or hardly studying?"
Tumblr media
“Um… is it still studying if it’s not for a test? I just wanted to see more pony history, and I ran out of Equestrian books…”

Gordon tuts, shaking his head gently. “Quite frankly, anyone is very capable of change; it all just depends on if they’re pushed to it or not. For an on site example, I know you are not the same draconequui you are a couple of years ago.” “Look at you then, and look where you are now. Given the chance, would you go back in the past and tell your former self to not repeat the mistakes he had made? No, you wouldn’t. Because not only would you be creating a time paradox by interacting with your past self, but you wouldn’t have learned the lessons that you did in the moment.” “And I’m very sure that somewhere, Blueblood is no doubt regretful of his mistakes and is working on improving themselves as a pony.”
[Gordon] "Come now, it's been..what, a few years? Can we not just move past grievances like this already? Sure, he's spoiled, but don't you think ponies are capable of changing over the years? I mean, from what I recall, Gilda went from being infamous to Dash's best friend in a matter of a day. It's a little unfair to keep picking on Blueblood, man."
“I suppose you’re right, friend.  I mean, if *I* can change, there’s hope for anybody really.”

“See, now that’s defeatist talking. Surely, surely, there’s other sources of Changeling history out there in this world, I feel. Chrysalis can’t just be only source of information, related to you lot.” Gordon seemed set on the hypothesis; and perhaps wanted to see if it was true. If it was, it would be nice to find other sources outside of Chrysalis to learn of Changeling history..

A skeptical look, and a raise of his claws went against his chin. “And who’s to say that she’s the only source in the world for Changeling history? Equestria’s own history didn’t come from just one pony, it came from a multitude of various other ponies out there who contributed to it all. And even then, she..”
He paused, unsure of how best to word this. “..probably would tell it from a biased perspective. But, I’ll knock on wood with that.”

“..Well, the other form of magic I know is the traditional type; which does involve books, but doesn’t require deities to channel it through. But that would require you to learn reading.” He smiled, before.. a frown catches his features. This particular class of magic was one he didn’t like talking about, but regardless, felt it best top point out.
Tumblr media
“There’s also ‘necromancy’, but we’ll try to stick away from that. Unless you’re a big fan of raising the dead.”
  A loud and annoyed groan came from that statement, reading was hard enough as it is, why was it needed for so many things out here?! As much as he loved learning he just wanted to be able to do what the words told him.
  Though at the griffon’s other words and the darkness that seemed to rest on his features, the centaur’s ears folded back, both concerned with the prospect of raising the dead and… Intrigued.
Tumblr media
  “ Can…. Magic really do that?” He asked nervously.

That was a good way of looking at it, in his world. It would get brighter as time went on, hopefully.  “As always, I’m on a pursuit of knowledge - in all of it’s many forms.” The griffon said simply. “I’m looking to expand my history senses into the like of the strange and the unknown. Especially about the Changelings’ own.”

“Not all history can be as glamorous. Even Equestria’s isn’t so different, if one looks far back. But you shouldn’t let this knowledge get down.” The griffon smiled down to her. “We have the magic of the modern era to learn from this, and make a better life for the people of the present the way I see it. It’s what we choose to do with this knowledge.”

“Sometimes, it’s good to go the extra mile, Terrance.” Gordon reminded him, before patting the fluffed top of the sheeptaur around.
“Plus, you can’t rush these things. It is a devotion of patience that has paid off for me down the line, and perhaps even you too, if you just give it the chance.”
  Terry gave a heavy sigh, he knew that Gordon was right but he was just so eager to learn all these new things, he just wanted them all at once. And at the moment, he couldn’t see why he couldn’t he just had to learn a spell or something, right?
Tumblr media
  “ Are there other types of magics out there?” He suddenly found himself asking as he started packing the books and scrolls away. “Ones that don’t need books and deities to channel it?”

A small snicker escaped the griffon, whom simply nodded his head. Childlike enthusiasm - you didn’t see much of that nowadays. Those that did, the good griffon treasured those that did and held onto them. Some days, it felt like a reminder that not all was cold and jaded.. ..But that was a train of thought to explore another day.
“I told you, Terry. We have to keep practicing meditations, opening up our minds, and focusing on calling to our patron deities.” Gordon reminded the sheep, patting him this time on the shoulder. “You can do this, buddy. I believe in you.”
  Terrance sighed impatiently at the reply, staring down at his studies with newfound annoyance. Gordon made things look so easy and here he was struggling just reading.
Tumblr media
  “ Meditating is hard though… Why isn’t prayer enough?” He asked, rubbing his forehead. “Calling out to Akun isn’t that hard, he blesses us with harvests and the seasons when we call for it to be well and… Well… Concentrating on nothing for that long is so HARD!”

It was good to see someone as young as her begin to take up reading; and in non fiction, no less. This mare was well enough on the way.. ‘The Fall of the Crystal Empire’? Now that was a subject Gordon had been meaning to expand his arsenal of knowledge on.
Tumblr media
“..I might be interested in reading up on that, myself. There’s lots I don’t know about that beautiful place, and I’d love to learn all I can.”

The griffon could relate. In his school life, he was the one bird many relied upon for history questions, as well as general knowledge of other countries. The ‘egghead’, some called him. “There’s a phrase that I often keep in my pocket; It’s about the journey, not the destination. Take all the time you need to play catch up, no matter how long it’ll take. My offer will still be there, no matter how long it’ll take you.”

“However,” Gordon added, “It’s necessary to see it in both darkness and light - for it is how we all grow as creatures of the world. We learn from past mistakes in our present, to make a better future for everyone. That’s what I’ve always believed in, and so did my dad.”
The griffon lets in a breath, before exhaling it out; smiling at the adorable mare. “..I don’t suppose you’re interested in history, as I am?”

“Parts yes and parts no.” Gordon smiled at the little fledgling changeling, sitting on his own haunches. If someone asked, he would be happy to tell them about the former kingdom of Anugypt. “It was divided into two pieces of history: The Old Kingdom and The New Kingdom.” “Most people know the history of The New Kingdom, particularly the most popular tidbit was when Cleopatrot had rose up to power. As for what it was like, well..” He pondered it over, before saying. “Not all history is pretty, yeah?”
