The bright orange light slowly fade away reveal the Figure of the armored human standing alone in the middle of the strange forest. The growl sounds coming out around him and the bush moving like it's alive. the flare of the flame slowly light brightly from his hand, he rise up his lit hand and the flare's shot up in the sky and flash to scare the strange creature away. Soon the flash fade the other figure appear in front of the human. The sunlight slowly rise up telling that the day time has begun. The sunlight shine up on the mysterious figure revealing the appearance of a white unicorn mare in green ,cyan blue and pink mane and she almost as tall as him. The human gazes all over the unicorn and notices that she isn't a regular unicorn since he has seen wings.

"Unicorn... and Pegasus in one? What a strange." Human said with deep and quite feminine curious voice.

"Your second sentence should be mine and I'm an Alicorn." the pony reply with a calm and gentle voice.

"Who are you... and where am I?" Human ask

"I am Princess Celestia ,the Princess of sun and this place is Everfree Forest in land of Equestria." the Alicorn reply

"I'm Aiden ,as you see I'm human but don't let my appearance fools you. I'm the unkindled one." human answer

"Human? Unkindled one? Never seen any kind like you before. " Princess says curiously.

"it's a long story ,princess but first we should get out of here. it's dangerous around here." After Aiden's words his hand once light up as the multiple figure of wolf crawling out from the shadow

"Timber Wolf?" Said by Celestia. One figure slowly come out from the shadow of the forest reveal it appearance. The green glow eyes with the body made of wood, timber wolf's pack howl and run directly to Aiden and Celestia. suddenly the fire glow from Aiden's hand and blow out a great combustion to scare off the timber wolves and it blow out with a loud noise. that noise make them run away.He suddenly falls down on knees and the flame in his hand fades. His heart beats really quick and his eye sigh starts to blur. Celestia can't help much but to his face and uses her cheek push him up but she can't stand well since he and his armor is quite a bit heavy so she slowly push him with her flank instead and carry him up on her back.

"Ahh... I... I... need... a short nap..." He's said with an exhausting voice before he fall asleep. Celestia smile warmly knowing that Aiden just sleep since he use such a great combustion to scare those timber wolves out.

"Ughhh.... hun?" Aiden slowly wake up with his eyesight still blur a little.He see another dark blue Alicorn's staring at him with. When his vision completely clear, he finally see that unicorn face.

"Huh.... Who are you.... Another princess?" Aiden ask . The dark Alicorn giggle before reply

"Yes ,I am Princess Luna,the princess of moon." Aiden get up. His body feel really light. He look down at himself found that he's wearing only his damaged white attire and pants.

"W.. wait.. w.. where is my armor?!" He look around the room trying to find his armor but he could find just his sword.

"No worry ,your armor is in the blacksmith to be repaired." Luna said confidently

"Ahh... that's a relief. Thank you."Aiden says as he get up from the bed

"You meet Celestia. She wants to discuss something with you." Aiden turn to Luna and raise his left brow and reply

"Well what she want to discuss?"

"One way to find out." Luna said and lead you back to the castle.

Aiden show up in the hall where Celestia sit on her throne with Luna.

"I'm here now ,princess." Celestia stood up and walk down to Aiden.

"Your word, unkindled one. What is it?"

"Ahh... Indeed ,my explanation.I still can't find out either what is unkindled. All I know is I was woken once by the bell sounds with 3 Lords of Cinder ,most people in the Land of Lothric call me the unkindled one ,ashen one ,or the ash seek ember. I have no memory from when I was born to How I end up in the cemetary. All I know is I woke up in the cemetery. I had nothing but my armor ,sword ,and shield on my hands. After I woke up, I've felt .... empty... and....felt nothing but the warm ember.... it's... far away... The Firekeeper told me that I have to link the fire... to relinquish the age of fire.... Like the first lord do... but then I realized that the Cycle will remain. When the fire fade.... once again... another Lord must relinquish the first flame. But what if I let it fade? The curse of undead spread... when undead died they keep turn into hollow... the world gone even crazier. But..." Aiden sit down on the bench.

"But what? What you have done?" Luna curiously ask.

"I let fire fade.... and the dark come.... then... the first flame once slowly lit... not by my hand... neither the other unkinled... when I touch the flame ,I heard the voice... warm... but weak... "Unkindled one... You still have hope... Darkness never last long... " then the smog... covered me all over... then I end up here as you see." He said and sigh in exhaust.

"Wow... that... was... "

"Awful isn't it?."

"I'm sorry to hear it anyway ,Aiden .But still, something make no sense. Maybe It because of I hadn't heard about the story from your world before. I need to study more about your Land ,Lothric ,The undead curse you've talked about ,and find out what you are . " Said by Celestia.

"I hope we will find the answers of two last questions too. And I think I have some story about Lothric from The Grand Archives. Let me take a look princess." He said while He reach his hands to open the large pouch on his back. A moment later he pull out a large almost burnt books that the cover is made from leather and it's written by the strange language.

"Here princess. " Aiden give the books to Celestia. she use her magic to pick it up and open it to read. Her eyebrows raise and return the book to Aiden and said.

"Ahh... This would take a while Aiden... can we borrow it a couple of days?" Said by Celestia.

"I don't mind if you want princess." Aiden replies.

"Now If you don't mind I want to take some time looking around the village." Celestia nod as Aiden bows down before he turn his back and leave both princess.

"Oh Aiden, I almost forget! Your Armor is in the castle's blacksmith finding he black earth pony name Bright Hammer."

Aiden walk out front the castle. He's heading to the market where many ponies are walking and take a look at the sell stands to find what they're looking for. some stands sell food that he never see before and some sell clothes. he keep walk and look at the lively view of village.

"Lively... Strangely... I feel warm... and welcome... I haven't felt like this since I've left the shrine--"

"Welcome! You must be a new arrival that princess just... uhmm carried in. I am Ziggy the merchant!" Aiden gasp with surprise when the light lime green body and red mane shows up in front of him with his high voice and big welcome smile.

"Ahhh t. thank you I suppo-." Aiden says

"I know Canterlot is a good place for beginning! And...uhhhh what are you wearing?!" Ziggy says with his awful sight when he sees Aiden's robes.

"W.. well I don't have much time to think about the robe under my armor so I--"

"Now YOU! have time to find you new robe! come!" Ziggy quickly grab Aiden's hands and lead him to the tailor stand next to his merchant stand.

"Hey Sally! You got a customer!" Ziggy yell into the stand as the other grey unicorn appear from the stands and sight. When she turn her face to Aiden and Awfully gasp when she see his robe.

"What on Equestria! Your robe looks seriously terrible! Oh wait... you are the one who Princess Celestia carried in?!" Aiden stay silent and nod as a reply.

"Looks like you are quite a well known for Canterlot ponies now!" Ziggy says as Aiden still remain silent. He think why these ponies are really kind and welcome him like they really are his friends. Maybe it because he used to live in such a rotten dead land for his journey to relinquish the first flame. But now there's still have many question in his head. The very first question is why the bonfire led him here in the Equestria.

"Uh-huh.... Ahh I get some idea for his new robe now!" Sally's yell make Aiden flinch and it pull him out from his mind as she uses her magic to carry the measuring tape. She start with his hip width ,height ,arms length along with his leg size. Sally finish the measuring with Aiden then take a note and draw the design in.

"Wow... she know how to design even a human robe?" Aiden asks Ziggy.

"Yes ,I know! She is the best!" Ziggy answer

"Quiet Ziggy! I'm Doing my work!" Sally says. Aiden approach to sally before he take a deep breath and says.

"How long it will take?"

"Oh a couple of hours. It will be finish just in time. Hmmm it such quite difficult for me since I've not encounter you or your fellow uhmm... what are you actually?" Sally ask

"Human... Guess I'm the first who appear in the Equestria." Aiden answer

"Yes ,indeed for my eyes."Aiden shrug as she said.

"Thank you." Aiden said and step back from Sally and said.

" I will be back after I take the armor."

"Okay ,see you later." Ziggy said and wave to good bye him as he walk away from the stand.

Aiden keep walking along the street back in the castle. He look at the guard ,lively garden with many strange creature he doesn't know it before ,the blue calm sky, the wind that keep hits his face all the time. He close his eyes as the ember rise from his body. he had never felt such a good like this before. His ember start to burn brighter than before. Aiden opens his eyes and sighs before he walk along the path to the blacksmith. He's now stood up in front of the blacksmith area where many ponies are working on metal works and smithings. Aiden step inside and looking for the pony name Bright Hammer. He wipes his eyes take a look around to find the black pony. Then suddenly he bump on some pony making both Aiden and the strange pony fall down on the ground.

"AH! I'm sorry you okay?" he tries to get up and look at the pony he just bump on checking he or she is okay.

"Ahhh I should have watched the way. Sorry" the pony said with her high female voice and jet black body.

"Is your head hit the ground hard?" Aiden ask as he reach his hand touching on her head.

"I'm fine just-- Wait who are you and... what on Equestria are you?" The pony look up at Aiden.

"I'm the owner of the armor that princess sent to you recently. Name's Aiden and I am human. I presume that you are Bright Hammer right?" Aiden reply.

"Yes I am.Human eh? Never met one before guess Princess first discover you somewhere I don't know. Your armor is right here it quite mess up so I make some refreshment and refine it a little. Hope you like it." Said by Bright Hammer as she lead Aiden to see the armor that's put on the tables with the other pony armors. it shine and it really good as new. He pick it up and put them on before he grab his helmet and said.
