While prepping up his potion-making set, Cass couldnt help but roll his eyes and chuckle at Trixie's order. "Yes, my lady", he humored her in a classy voice. While anyone would be annoyed by it, Cassian was actually amused and relieved to hear Trixie's mood brighten. Even if he found her a strange character from the way she boasted and spoke in third-person when he first met her and Starlight. It didnt take long to warm up to Trixie's character. After all, he's lived around ponies long enough to know that many tend to have quirky personalities. A quality about them he was actually quite fond of.
As the bunsen burner lights up, he takes out his personal tea kettle and clay cups, along with his different sets of of herbs that were assorted in smaller bags. When, Trixie and Starlight pressed the matter of his changes, Cassian froze for a moment while filling the kettle with water. "Well uh.....", he reluctantly stammers for a moment before realizing the tea kettle was full and places it on the burner. "How can I explain it?", he asks himself while placing various natural herbs and roots into his medicine bowl. He was lucky he found some of them growing fresh in the wild, so this tea will surely have a refined and refreshing flavor. He placed dried lemon balm, peppermint, fennel seeds, dried rose petals, fresh lavender, dried licorice roots, and freshly plucked chamomile into the bowl to grind while the water heats up. As he was grinding the ingredients, he gave thought in explaining since its alot to cover. That and he needs to keep his secret about the tree and the old underground sanctum he found at The Castle of the Two Sisters as vague as possible.
"Well you see. As i told you when we first met, I'm not from Equestria. However, I didnt happen to mention that I have relations to this land. It's one of the reasons why I came here. To find out what they are and what do they mean for me. I found a few clues around the Everfree forest, but it only led to more questions. That is until I found something....big. What ever it was, it was calling out to me somehow. So all I could do was answer by following it. And thats when I happened to bump into Princess Luna. What ever it was I stumbled upon, I knew it was something important that no one outside the royal family can know about.", he stopped for a moment and scraped the finely-blended paste into the heating kettle. "So, yeah. For a second there, I thought I was in too deep. You know, For a moment I thought becoming a dragon-scaled accessory for the Princess of the Night wouldnt have been too bad of a way to go when I thought about it. ^^'",he bemused with a chuckle. "Still I wasnt ready to go out just yet, so did the protocal when meeting royalty. Kneel and respectfully apologize for my intrusion. And if that didnt work.....well, at least I could have crossed out fighting a powerful deity off my bucket list before going down. But in the end.......and I dont know why, but she ended up trusting me for some reason.", he looks back at the two mares snuggled up in bed. It gave him an awkward blush at first, but he smiled none the less seeing how comfortable they were before quickly going back to watching his kettle. "Princess Luna guided me to the source of what I was looking for. When we found it.....it....did something to me.", he placed his claw over his now Topaz encrusted Crest Mark on his right shoulder, which used to be an unsusally shaped dark brown splotch of a birthmark.
