Twilight's smile grew a little wider as she turned the page in her book. Mageodynamical engineering had been one of her favorite subjects at school, despite a nagging difficulty with math that had hounded her through high school. She'd persevered, though, and now she could bang out formulas with the best of them.
Her good mood was instantly shattered by a twinkling chime sounding through the air behind her. Her ears flattened against her head.
"I've always found Misty Grove's Theory of Conservation of Ether to be a bit lacking, haven't you? I mean, assuming that the ether behaves like normal energy is quite a stretch. There's no evidence for it, is there?"
Twilight twisted her head around. A long, slinking swirl of body parts from a dozen creatures was sprawled across the library floor. One arm, the paw of a lion, was holding one of her books in his velveted grasp. The other, the talon of an eagle, was balled into a fist, against which a gray goat's head was pressed. Wild yellow eyes with mismatched red pupils drifted to meet her gaze.
