Moonheart trembled. Can I ever have a regular day? "What's the problem?" Star asked. Brackentail nodded towards Riversun. "Elmglade... one of the lake herd pegasi is after us..." All heads snapped toward her. "But the Lake Herd pegasi vanished?" Morningleaf reminded. Riversun nodded. "They did, but not all vanished. After the disaster that not even I know, only one Lake Herd pegasus made it out alive. This pegasus was different from the rest, always questioning there ways, Lake Herd had there suspitions. When his herd was wiped out he decided to move out of the forest and spread his kind. Each foal he had he taught them there "Destiny". Moonheart who had been mostly listening said, "But wouldn't the dams know?" Riversun shook her head. "Another thing he taught. 'Never be truthful to your family except for your ruler.' Which was him at the time. The generation passed and passed, until the present pegasus, with the name of Elmglade came in place. His destiny, his destiny was to kill all the black foals in Anok. We ran past the loner in the Jungle Herd grounds. He almost killed me. We have been hiding in Firemouth ever since. And now both of our foals are in trouble, me, you, Moonheart, and my foal are in trouble." "AND YOU DIDN'T TELL US!?" Star brayed. Riversun stammared. "I- I didn't understand it... I had to look into it more." Moonheart flexed her wings. "Then we'll just have to stop him." "No!" Brackentail yelled. "Elmglade has the matter that makes up the hundred-year star. He collected it the last time it appeared." He glanced at Star. Moonheart's gut flipped. She just wanted to go home before this became serious. "The prophecy says that a group of pegasi. Some from different time periods, will gather. They will defeat Elmglade." Timeperiods? Does that mean there are other worlds at the same time as this but with different names and other differences? Does that mean that I wont be apart of this. Does that mean I cant help? Does that mean there is another me out there? "Then what can we do?" Moonheart asked. Brackentail lowered his head. "The only thing we can do is slow it down. He wants to kill the black foals to give all of his crazed followers the starfire. He already gave it to himself with what he created. " The clueless foal bleated.

Something was coming. Something bigger than a destroyer. Something bigger than hate. Something bigger than enslavery. Something bigger than war. Something, not even a black foal can defeat.
