Grifixverse Lore V: Pandora's

Beauty lies in the imagination of the pony kind.

Or so they say.

They tell her those words as her blind eyes scout the world around her, settling on something others cannot see.

“You see fairytales, you have eyes for the imaginary.” They stated. “Stories and legends are made of a matter that can’t be perceived by others, for it is not real. You alone have the power to see it, Pandora.”

“BULLSHIT!” Mortina exploded out of nowhere. “It’s all bullshit!”

“Care to elaborate?” Asked Andromenda.

“What is she doing here…” Sol asked but was ignored.

“You see, Andromeda, you and your comrades came up with this… theory about “the imaginary” and stuff, it has absolutely no connection with the actual truth!” Mortina spoke.

“Well then, enlighten me!”

“You see, it was much simpler, she could just see the spirits of all things and beings.”

“Then how do you explain her seeing stuff where there was nothing?”

“You should simply accept the fact that there are beings whose magic has evolved to hide them from your sight.”

“Huh, if you say so. But what exactly are those “spirits” you said she could see?”

“Souls, living energy, flow of life… hard to tell. Or perhaps it was something deeper than that… something you called… Neant.”

“THAT -“ Andromeda stood up all of a sudden, but then added while trying to pull herself together: “how could it be Neant? Neant is impossible to observe.”

“Why is that so?”

“Neant is… is… the negative of reality, the opposite of what exists…”

“Yes, and didn’t you say that she could see “a matter that can’t be perceived by others, for it is not real”? If Neant is the opposite of reality, then Neant is not real.”

“You… You have just contradicted yourself! I refuse to take this debate any further, spirit of existence! Let me rest in peace!” The ghost disappeared with a poof.

“Oof… darn it.” Mortina said disappointed.

“Why was she here?” Sol asked, finally hoping for an answer.

“I just wanted another host for our marvelous documentary about the depths of this world…”

“What the hell are you talking about…”

“Aaaaanyway, everyone, with this I shall conclude today’s story about Pandora, one of the most powerful unicorns to have ever existed!”
