We Went To the Land Of the Ice and Snow
[The scroll flickers on to show nothing but white. Distantly, beneath a blowing wind, the sounds of whirling propellers and hard work press faintly through. Then crunching -- the unmistakable sound of hooves compressing snow.]
Aww, crap.
[The viewpoint jerks up to reveal the Overlord, snow spotting his coat but not his fiery mane, as he stands in the midst of a swirling blizzard. In the distance, barely visible, his minion horde marches off the airship he'd long ago stolen for Talk Like A Pirate Day and... neglected to return.]
Who the hell designs a magic scroll that's so easy to accidentally turn on?
Hmph. Looks like the cat's out of the bag. [Smirking, the Overlord sweeps a hoof out as he turns the scroll to reveal great mounds of snow lumping up across an otherwise featureless plain. Closer inspection shows that these lumps are in fact ruins, crumbled buildings in various states of decay.]
Stalliongrad. The site of an ancient battle between ponies and windigos, and if Princess Celestia's dreams are anything to go on, the Frozen Fire of Friendship just might be here somewhere. Once I find it, I'll have all the power of ice and snow that the windigos have... and then Equestria will either be mine, or a frozen hell of ponies in ice blocks, trapped and wishing their Princesses had surrendered instead of condemning them! Hyaaa ha ha ha ha!
[Zetta flicks his tail at the scroll as he turns to match towards the ruins, shutting it off.]
Aww, crap.

Besides, I don't want to freeze everything. I just will if the Princesses don't yield rulership to me.
no subject
So, you don't want everything frozen.
But you'll freeze it if the Princesses don't make you a Prince?
But if you do freeze everything then you won't be a Prince and you'll be in a frozen place you don't like... I think the others told me to ignore you because you don't make any sense.
no subject
Besides, the Princesses won't allow me to freeze their subjects just to hold onto their rule. They'd rather have alive but conquered ponies, not frozen ones.

[Mani sounded pretty down when she first started talking, feeling so stupid about getting terms mixed up like that, but she starts perking up as she talks about Equestria, she thinks this world is the best thing that's ever happened to her.]
No one makes us do things we don't want too. And this world is great as it is!

If you take over this one you have to look after all the new people who are arriving. Most of them are really nice but then you get ones like Tasty Cat too who aren't nice at all. And you'd be in charge of two worlds... won't that be a lot of work?
no subject
What you don't understand is that an Overlord needs the flow of mana power from their Netherworld to stay on top of their game. The longer I go without that, the closer other Overlords can come to catching up to me. They're still miles away, of course, but I don't want to deal with any challengers.

[Mani trying to understand but this is an totally alien concept to her.]
What would this world be like if you make it a nether world?

I don't think anyone wants to go though any more changes. O-or degrade. So everyones going to work together to stop you, just like last time someone tried to take over. And the time before that.
[So there.]

[Mani had started off timid but she she continued with determination.]
All of us, we've stopped everyone else!
Besides! I-If you're so badass why did people tell me ignore you?

[Violence or trickery? What difference does it make, either way the Pale pony would be distracting the princess. In a huff Mani rolls up the scroll She'd ask Skyfire about it later. Maybe he'd understand.]
