“They... They care about me. I feel sorry for them.

- Why?

Because I'm Discord. I'm a force of nature. It won't end well for them. It never does.

- Why?

You saw it. It happens whenever I make a "Friend". It ended the same way in all of those other doors. You saw what happened with Tirek.

- I did. But you saw it differently than I did.

What did you see?

- I saw that you were sorry. That you regretted what you've done. Forces of nature don't regret.

Hmmm...

- And that’s what your nightmares are about, isn’t it? You’re Worried. You’ve never been worried before, have you?

It’s not in my nature to be worried. It… Wasn’t in my nature. I feel something for them.

- Love?

I wouldn’t go that far. Care, at least. I care what happens to them. I care how they feel about me… It makes me weak.

- Now, you listen to me, Discord. Care does not make you weak, it makes you strong. Ponies accomplish more through care than they ever thought possible. With enough care, you can change the world. Care enough and you can even change yourself. I did. The old me is still in there. I still get jealous, but I remember how much I love my life and that’s enough.

Huh.”
