(The dragon can be seen lazing about in his cave, just as he usually does...but there's something noticeably different this time around. And it's kind of glowing. He rests an arm on it, checking out his claws as he speaks.)

So...this can't be the first time someone's stuff got switched out for something else, right?

(A pause as he glances at the scroll.)

The two swords I had...don't exactly have 'em around anymore. Instead, I got this bulky thing right here.

(Dante holds up the demonic suitcase for the viewers to get a better look at it. After a moment, he sets it back down.)

Don't get me wrong; this thing's pretty awesome and it's kind of a fair trade, but you think they'd be polite enough to at least ask me about it first. Can't just up and take a guy's stuff, you know?

Aaaaaand...that should do it!

(As the magic surrounding Twilight's horn fades, a small, humanoid creature comes into view of the scroll and settles herself atop the unicorn's head.)

I think I'm finally getting used to summoning now. I've been studying it for the past several months and just recently started practicing. It's...been a strange journey, but as with any academic adventure, I don't think this one will end so soon.

...Before anyone asks, yes they are demons and yes, I've taken the proper precautions to make sure nothing goes wrong. She's low-level and can be dismissed if things get too hectic. That said, I have to admit that part of my hesitation was due to the stereotypes surrounding demons, but I think they're equally as capable of good as we are. It's just a matter of proper guidance, right?

(The visual pops up to reveal one (1) green maned unicorn parked right in the middle of what appears to be a store, based on the various goodies scattered about the place. They're far from your typical groceries, however; they're more like...accessories. Bracelets, necklaces...maybe even a helmet or two. The sort of stuff you'd see in fantasy RPG games, pretty much.

And the only one in this store is the aforementioned unicorn. She, however, seems very confident in herself.)

I've actually been in town for a few months now and I'm just now doing this. I figured this would be a good enough occasion to warrant it. I'm Harvester and I've been spending a lot of time in that dungeon in Canterlot. If you've been there already, then I don't have to tell you how weird it is, but there's plenty of neat stuff in there...stuff made and enchanted by Star Swirl the Bearded himself...stuff I've been bringing back little by little.

That's the other half of what this is all about: now that I have a vendor license, I can get to selling these trinkets and goodies. As part of the grand opening, everything's 25% off, so come visit The Hoard, just down the road from Quills and Sofas. My stock is limited to what I can dig up, so jump on these goodies now before they're gone.

(And with that, the video ends.)

[It's a wonderful day, isn't it, Ponyville? Fall is just starting out, and the sun is shining brightly overhead. It's a wonderful sun, isn't it? So nice, in fact, that the scroll is showing an image of it, itself! ...Or, wait, that's just a standard feed. Seems like whoever's recording has it just laying on the ground outside for whatever reason.]

[Okay, so it's not too interesting. However, closer inspection reveals that a corner of the feed is actually in shadow. Seems to be a building, of sorts. Perhaps the balcony of the Town Hall, judging by its round appearance. Seen on it is a silhouette of a bird. A rather large bird, come to think of it, and it appears to be... shimmering? Like it was slightly on fire, minus the actual burning and light. After a moment, the figure spreads its wings and majestically takes off from the balcony! A cry can be heard as it takes flight...]

Taiyyyoooooooooooohhhh [THUD]

[...and immediately falls out of the air in a horribly failed attempt and crashes directly into the scroll, revealing that the bird is, in fact, a yellow-colored phoenix. Don't see that in Ponyville too often. It recovers quickly enough, now standing somewhat on top of the feed as it- he- muses to himself.]

Hm! It would seem that flying with wings is quite different than floating! Something I shall have to adjust to, given the situation.

[It's at this point he finally notices what he's standing on. Its use had been explained to him upon arrival, but he never got a chance to play with it, especially since this was not designed with wings in mind. Regardless, he does manage to figure out why this scroll seemed to be behaving oddly.]

...Ah, it seems to be functioning. Must have done so when it fell off the balcony. Does this mean I am being recorded, I wonder?

[...If he is, he may as well say something.]

Greetings, anyone who may be be listening or watching! I am Otenko, Messenger of the Sun. It would appear that I have been relocated to this quaint, if rather strange, town. I know not why, but I am certain the answers shall reveal themselves in time, but for now, I suppose I should work on being able to navigate it.

[Since that's going so well right now.]

In any case, I shall look forward to meeting those that use this device, as well as the rest of the inhabitants of the town. May the Sun be with you!

[And with that, he walks off to go try the balcony again, this time taking the scroll with him. It manages to turn itself off after a few moments of movement.]
