Oberon was pleased he had got the young colts attention. He let his paws linger on his shoulders, the claws digging in deep and drawing blood. "So... you do not know?" He cocked an eyebrow and shook his head as if he was disappointed. Then he released the boy and took a step back, quickly saying; "If you attack me again I WILL kill you... and you will never know what I know of Black Magic." He looked at the boy for a moment before saying; "Do you understand?"
Although he had to admit he was disappointed that the boy didn't know about black magic he was impressed enough to share what he knew; it wasn't often he found someone who was brave enough to come seeking him -not that he wanted that to ever happen again of course- nor was it often he found someone who could take and give a strike without complaining. Yes, Oberon was impressed with the boy.

Demon snarled at the beast before him, he really didn't like being the one who was tormented. Still he was relieved when the claws released him.... they had stung like a b***h, and the scent of his own blood filled the air.... disguisting. Ever since his 'lesson' all those years ago he simply couldn't stand it.
Still; the very prospect of knowing what the stallion had to say had Demon agreeing to his term, at least for now. "Agreed," the only question that really remained in Demon's mind wasn't what it was but... did it actually exsist?

Oberon stared at him for a moment before deciding that his word was good -for now at least. "Good..." he said with a grin.
Still, Oberon wasn't foolish enough to believe he could turn his back for a minute.... so Oberon remained standing tall. "So.... black magic." He paused, pretending to think about what he had heard so that he could guage the colts responces.... he wanted to know if they boy had used his power and never realised it or if he had geniunely never heard of such a thing before.
After a moment he continued, "It is said that a kalona, a true kalona, is able to use black magic. It is the ability to shut down an opponants defences leaving them vunderable, while at the same time they strengthen any illnesses."
He paused again, letting this new information sink in.[[Black magic is the ability listed in the RP guide for Kalona's. After discussing it with Niss we agreed that Demon would eventually be able to use it if he focusses really hard. Also please note that some of what Oberon explains will be false -after all he heard it as a rumour and not all rumours are true. If you want to learn more about the truth of black magic read the RP guide.]]

Demon listened with a keen interest and made little effort to hide it, in someone else he would have considered it a weakness but he couldn't seem to help it; the fact that someone showed an interest in something meant they had opened themself up for attack.... it was easy to manipulate or destroy someone should they allow such a weakness to be seen.
Still.... he couldn't help but disbelieve the stallions words; surely if this worked others would have been using it, and he would have discovered this power before this day. But still..... what if it was old knowledge? The creature before him looked as if hell had spat him out so perhaps he had more inside knowlegde than those living..... the power simply forgotten with time. Interesting.
He grinned, his teeth making it look more like a snarl. If he was one of the few who knew this power then surely he could use it to rule.... to take power and fight to become the strongest he could be; unchallanged by all others and with his possessions fully his to enjoy without fear of theft or attempt of it.
After a pause, as his mind rolled over and over with these new developments he asked; "I assume it kills them?" He had to know for sure, if it was summoning an illness within them would it be slow and prolonged? Or instant? Or not at all.... would it simply weaken them to the point that the death blow was easy to give and well received due to their pain.

Oberon noted the sudden interest on the colts face.... and in that moment he knew, this was all new to him. Still, perhaps he could use this as an opportunity to one day find out if it was true? From the look on the boys face he would likely begin to ask questions and hopefully learn the ability -something Oberon had failed on, not enough Kalona blood he suspected. The ripples of this new power showing itself once more would surely start new rumours, fears and death..... that would be his way to know if it was true. If nothing like that happened then he would assume it was a lie. A disappointing lie.
He pretending to think about the question; the details about how it killed or how long it too were hazy and everyone seemed to claim different things all the more fantastically than the last. "Yes boy, it kills. Though I will admit I do not know the details. I believe it takes days to work with no cure....." he paused, hesitated as he tried to remember something; "...no, that is wrong. There is one way for it be cured I believe, by the healing magic of the unicorns. If memory serves the purer they are the more likely they are to manage it, especially if the victum has been infected for a while."

Demon listened to every word and eventually nodded his understanding. If this was true.... if it exsisted he could eliminate his opponants before they even saw him coming. A smirk covered his face. This could be..... interesting.
Still he had more questions, though he suspected the other stallion probably wouldn't know the answers. "How does it work?"

Oberon paused and looked at the colt, "Not sure about that. I heard rumours that you need to infect them with your horns, and others that you just concentrate as it is all in your mind." He shrugged, now bored with this topic... or at least wanting to appear so.
Noticing that the colt was much calmer than before he raised an eyebrow and said, "I think it is time you left. I have.... things to do." Like find Arella and protect her from the beast that had invaded his land. "Go find out for yourself." He wanted to add -and come tell me when you know, but he knew that would never happen. He would have to listen to the wind, listen for rumours and whispers of a new magic arrising once more.
Oberon wasn't sure... did he want it to be true or not? Would it effect him too?
Deciding it was time to leave, Oberon stomped his hoove on the ground, "Now go." The boy had out lived his welcome.

Demon snapped his head forward in an annoyed hiss. He hated it when others told him what to do, but the other stallions information gave him a pass to live -today at least.
"Fine," Demon said before turning to leave. Usually he wouldn't even consider turning his back on another but something told him the other wouldn't attack him in this case. He spread his wings wide and ran down the hill doing his best not to slip on the icey rock, then he kicked off with his back legs and took to the sky.
When he was in the sky he lowered his gaze and watched at the other stallion made his way to the forest as if looking for something..... or someone? The white blurr?
Demon made a note to investigate it later, a weakness over a stallion like him may come in handy for Demon...... already a cunning plan was forming should he ever need it, but right now he had more important things to consider.
"Black Magic!"
