His ear swivelled to hear the words of the mare that he had met briefly before upon entering the terrain. The 'free spirit'. He pondered her question, and a sly smile slid onto his features as smooth as glass. Evening his weight on all fours, he acknowledges her. "That is a very good question, one I have had to thought of in great detail for a long, long time," He takes a deep breath and sighs.

"Good without Evil is much like black without white, is it not? Without white, black is just... there. There is nothing to compare it to. However, if we erase white from the vocabulary of the world, black will always be black. Everything will be black and only black, no one would even no of white to say 'Yes, yes that is white'. Much the same is how Good and Evil are. If Good is erased forever from the world, Evil will be the only thing ever known. There won't be a need for contrast. Do you understand? It's a very difficult concept, I myself had trouble working it out of jumbled thoughts and into words that could be actually be spoken," He said, finishing his lengthy speach with a slight bow to his head in the direction of the mare.

"But then there wouldn't be Evil anymore!" The colt protests, the façade lost as he struggles with the theory that the stallion has proposed. "We'd just be neutral! Or...or...we'd be something else entirely because Good, Evil, and Neutral would have no meaning! We might as well as be only Good or only Neutral! It would be the same thing! Contrast makes Evil...doesn't it?" By now the poor colt, who has never thought of such concepts in his whole entire short life, is very, very confused. Helplessly his eyes fall to stare at the ground, one corner of his mind noticing that he can't stare at his front hooves because they're still hidden behind the brush.
