"Well, you see.... I'm not actually from around here. At all. I was born in the Rainbow Coalition, in a little city-state called LaceAbbey. Now, things are very different over there. The concept of racial division is... practically non-existent. Ponies, cave ponies, zebras, and aye, even diomedians all live and work together. My mother is a pegasus, aye, and I get most of my looks from her. But my father - your grandfather now, I suppose - is a diomedian. A shadowbolt, to be precise. And he isn't some bloodthirsty barbarian or perverted foal-stealer: he's one of the kindest, gentlest ponies you will ever meet - and I do hope very much that you get to meet him one day."

"That doesn't bother me in the slightest, lad. Would you like to know a little secret?"

Starkey balks. "Otik! Y-You taught her how to do that!? That... that's not fair!"

He tries his best to resist...

And fails. the D'aww is strong in this one.


"Oh... oh, alright, I give up."

He clears his throat. "Heiro... if it's alright with you - because these two have already made their minds up, which means I-"

Otik jabs him in the ribs.

"Oww! Okay, okay! As I was saying: would you like to give us the honor of being... your mother and father?"

Otik scoots closer to Heiro, laying a hoof on his withers.

"Soo... if yer Friesden's brother... I guess that makes-"


"Ooh no, stop right there Otik."

"Aww, but Sta-ars..."

"We talked about this, remember? no more foster children! We're going to get married, and have foals of our own."

Otik pouts hard, showing him the saddest, most watery eyes she can muster.

"No... that's not going to work this time..."

Otik sits by Friesden opposite Starkey, leaning into her.

"Ye know ye'll always be our lit'l pony, Fri. I'll always be there for ye..."


"...Both of us will."

Starkey sits by Friesden, draping his own wing across her back.

"Sometimes the good must die so that the rest survive. The lot of courage is to be sacrificed on the altar of battle. But those who die for another, their spirits shall be seated at the Sisters' table."

"Your... your father sacrificed himself to save you. He did it because he loves you, Friesden. Even now."

Starkey and Otik take up positions on opposite sides of Friesden. Starkey expertly dispatches each wraith that approaches too near, while Otik does the same with her hooves.

Starkey bows his head, muttering a short invocation.

'Let him pass. To see such horrors inflicted on one I love so dearly, and to know that every last one was wrought by my own hooves... If you truly be merciful, let him pass. He has done his time in Hell.'

"...Then it is decided."

Starkey reaches into a pouch on his belt, withdrawing a scrap of parchment.

"in the second room, after I finished with the bodies, I had one more of these left. I think I know why now."

He holds it out to Farquaad. An image of a key is drawn on the parchment in ink.

"If you are truly remorseful, then from where I stand, your penance has been paid."

"Wot? Stars, he did such... monstrous things t'her! Dunnae tell me ye just forgive this bastard?"

"Nopony is beyond redemption, Otik. Farquaad has seen his error."

All at once, the glow vanishes.

"...You... you're telling the truth. Every word. You truly feel remorse, don't you?"

Starkey remains stock still, locking eyes with the spectre. As he stares, unblinking, the axe in his hand begins to glow with an inner light.

"Your daughter?" Starkey snorts derisively, "You lost that right a long time ago."

Starkey falls into place beside Heiro, Honesty flashing to life in his hooves.

"The Friesden who took your lives is long gone. She is not the mare you seek. Begone from this place, spirits."
