Takanuva: The Patterners argued with the Disciples of the Thirteen over the Dark Sparkle's origins. One side says it is the very source of Nightmare Moon's power. The other, that it is simply an ejected corruption from the Tree of Harmony. The most radical voices, like that of Starswirl the Bearded, even posit that it comes from another universe. The Patterners and Disiples argue, but the guardians take action. We have seen the Dark Sparkle's power. We know it must forever remain hidden.

Takanuva: Kranix has disappeared. That makes another scientist who has gone missing while studying the Dark Sparkle. For once, the Patterners and Disciples finally agreed: The Dark Sparkle has been deemed too dangerous for study and has come to the guardians for safekeeping until the vault is complete. The others are afraid, but my will is strong.

Takanuva: It is a thing of dark power. And though my duty is clear and my resolves strong here in the infinite quiet, I find even my will wavering. To guard an object that grants the power to bend others to your very will? A frightening thought. We must seal it within the vault as soon as we are able.

Takanuva: Construction of the vault is complete. The strongest of our order are to be entombed as the eternal guardians of the Dark Sparkle. Jhiaxus was to be our captain, but he was discovered using the Dark Sparkle to control the missing Patterners. His plan to abscond with it was nearly successful. He was deactivated when he would not surrender. I volunteered to replace him. At least now the Dark Sparkle will be safely locked away before others can abuse its power.
