Chapter 30 - chapter 30

The next day I woke up and I sent a message to Luna for her to come visit. The gifts I had for them arriving last night along with my research and I wanted everything to be perfect. After I was done getting ready a letter and a book arrived it was from my captains

"Sir we believe we have found a spell that can restore their limbs, but it say nothing about horns so they will have to use the artificial ones."

After I read the note I looked at the bookmarked page and smiled, I left carrying the presents and the book.

I had sent a letter to the girls to come to Twilight's library. It took me a few minutes to get there and when I arrived they were waiting for me.

"Hey girls I think I have a way to restore your limbs," That made them happy and I read through the book to memorize the spell "but Twilight and Rarity it said nothing about horn so you will have to deal with artificial ones instead." They looked down but nodded slowly and I began to chant the spell and their missing limbs began to glow and they were slowly began to heal and reform their limbs.

After they were healed I grabbed a pair of mythril horns and placed them on the broken horns of Rarity and Twilight as the bottoms of the horn glowed with heat as before and cooled down, after it was all down they all jumped up to hug me.

"Hey what's going on?" A tired Spike asked as he was walking down the stairs in his pajamas, his eyes barely open as he walked down.

"Hey spike, I got my horn back." Twilight said as she hugged Spike and he hugged back with tears in his eyes.

Luna had just arrived after the touching moment between Twilight and Spike. "You sent me a letter?" she asked as I remember why I was here and I took out my gifts. They all levitated in front of Luna, Applejack, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, Aiko, and Tempest before they all opened to show rings.

"Will you marry me?" I asked and they all jumped me and hugged me. They all put on the rings all the rings had different color diamonds Luna's was a deep blue; Rairity's was a white, Applejack's was orange, Rainbow's took a bit of work but I was finally able to find the right enchantment's to make it the right works and it was a rainbow diamond; Twilight's was a purple diamond, Fluttershy's ring had a pink diamond, Aiko also had a white diamond, and Tempest's diamond is a dark purple.

"So when is the wedding?" Rarity asked.

"Well I was thinking next week in Canterlot." I said and everyone was getting excited and their was a knock on the door. When I opened it, it was the captain of my personal guard, well I should say royal guard since I'm going to be a king now and he was carrying a package.

"May I come in?" He asked and I opened the door, he sat the package on a nearby table before sitting down. Nobody was around the girls were in the kicken getting something ready right now. "Sir I belive you know how you unlocked a bit of your power, correct?" he spoke and I nodded. "That increase in power allowed you to break discord's sword."

I was shocked to hear I broke it as he uncovered the object he brought in to reveal a sword. "After you broke his sword the hilt flew to your hand and a new sword formed from the shards of the old one creating this." He spoke as I picked up the sword and felt a rush of power inside me. The runes on the sword briefly glowed blue. "Anyone else that tried to touch it was nearly frozen to death." He continued as I put the sword on my belt and everyone came back and saw the sword and gulped.

"What's the matter?" I asked.

"Well that sword appeared when you fought discord and we have not seen it since." They said.

"So what are you going to name it?" Rainbow Dash asked. "I hear a lot of cool sword are named."

"I will name it Frostmourne." I declared as the runes on the sword glowed again almost like it liked the name.

"Fitting name." Luna said as we sat while Applejack brought in sandwiches and the captain of my royal guard left.

After we finished our food, Rarity and Twilight were getting used to their new horns while me, Aiko and Tempest decided to walk through town. We stopped at the park for a break and sat down on a nearby bench.

"Everything seems to be going so fast." I spoke as Tempest took a deep breath.

"I agree." she said

Captain of the Royal Guard POV

It was after I reached Minas Morgul that I was able to get back to work. However, one of my subordinates called for me. "Sir we have a problem." he said as he stopped in front of me. "It seems a disease has broken out in one of the underground cities. We have already quarantined it but we have not found a cure yet and it seems life threatening. We should bring it up with his majesty." he spoke as he handed me a clipboard with all the names of the infected.

"I want more guards to keep them there until we come up with a solution. I will also send a letter to him." I said as he ran off. "More and more work keeps piling up." I spoke as I began writing a letter to Talion.

Talion POV

It was a half a hour later when I got the letter. I told Twilight and sent a letter to Celestia, see if she could send anyone to help. We arrived at Minas Morgul to check on the situation and we were taken to the quarantined area to see the side effect of the disease. If we could figure that out maybe we can find an antidote." Is their any change with the infected?" I asked.

"We had a few close calls but everyone is alive." the guard reported as we walked down the tunnels.

"Sir, Celestia has sent experts here to examine the infected." A guard said as we entered the city.

"Good bring them here immediately so they can start their evaluation of the patients." I said and he walked away to retrieve them.

After that we reached the quarantine area. "Twilight you should probably wear one of these." It was a full body protection suit. She put it on over her clothes and we walked inside.

As we walked in we found a doctor inside. "Are there any patterns in the illness?" I asked.

"None we have noticed." He responded, handing me a list of medical information for each patient and I did not see a pattern at first glance before handing it back to the doctor.

"Sir the experts have arrived and putting on their safety suits." A guard said a four ponies followed him in safety suits.

"We are here." one of them declared as they got acquainted with each other and we got started with the examination as we entered the sick room. I decided to look over the list again as the doctor handed it to me and I looked more thoroughly I looked at blood types, races and where they lived and I noticed something. Most of the infected came from the west corner of the city

"Wait!" I said and everyone looked at me. "Judging from this list most of the sick came from the west corner of the city. That could be where they got whatever this is." I said handing them the list and they looked over it.

"You got a good eye, we should head there now." One of them said.

"Yes but one or two of you should stay here to monitor them to see if this is just a coincidence." I suggested and two of them volunteered to stay and we left and took some guards with us as we walked to the west corner of the city.

After we arrived most of the houses were empty and I ordered the infected houses to be searched and found nothing in the houses, so we moved to the water source we use for this part of the city.

"I want divers to explore the bottom to see if they can find anything. I also want this area to be contained. Close off the water pipes connecting to this place." I ordered and they did so as some guards jumped in the water while some of the experts were taking samples of the water and testing it.

"Hey we found something." One of them said and I walked over to them. "The water is poisoned but what kind we don't know. However it is highly diluted so it is less dangerous but it is still deadly. Now that we have a sample we can make an antidote and we can purify the water in there." They explained.

"You should head back with this so you can have a better area to work in." I suggested and they agreed so they got packed up and left. The guards that went in the water pulled out a huge bag and opened it spilling it contents. Revealing that they were stone with runes engraved in them and I picked one up and studied it.

"You," I pointed at a guard. "get me a glass of uncontaminated water." He quickly left to get some and returned a few minutes later carrying a large glass of water. Handing it to me before I put it on the ground and dropped a stone in. Using a spell to observe the effect of the stone and the water I noticed it slowly spread across the water, turning it to poison. I quickly destroyed the glass, water, and the stone.

"I want the security in every city to be increased. More guards and patrols, I also want eyes everywhere. I want every new resident in every city questioned and I want checkpoints at the gates to run searches. I want to know who placed these stone and I want them now!" I declared with anger in my voice as they ran to fulfill my orders. I started walking back to the quarantined area trying to forget my anger.

It was finally.when I got to the quarantined area that I calmed down and I walked inside, the doctors greeted me. "We have been giving them the antidote and they have been showing good results so far." They informed me as they were injecting the antidotes into patients.

"Good after you finish here do you think you and the experts can work together and purify the lake we use as the water source for the west corner of the city?" I asked and they nodded and continued to work.

"Talion." I heard Twilight's voice before turning around to see her smiling.

"Hey Twilight how are things?" I asked with a smile.

"Good now that all of this is over, so how will you deal with this now?" She asked with a worried.

"I have increased security in all the cities and I have ordered checkpoint to be made to search anyone that goes through them." I said and Twilight relaxed a bit since I had a plan to deal with it before a guard approached me.

"Do you think it is a attack from Dainn?" He said and that got twilight confused.

"What does he have to do with it?" She asked.

"He sent a assassin to kill me when I went back to ponyville. We captured him before he could do anything though." I said and Twilight looked worried. "All the more reason to fight him." I said and she nodded and we left for the tower
