Page 1185 — Gin & Doctor, Part 5

Guest Author's Note: "The Master Cloud Pillar did not start out as a chess program. It may once have been the best friend of a certain Fillyinger, but only in a companion cube sense.

The bigwings will show up soon enough, but in the mean time would anyone care to guess exactly what they are?"

Transcript:

DW: It'll take Gin a few minutes to calm down even with Doc's help, right? Enough to get somewhere private?
GG: Yeah.
GM: Sure.
DW: What. In. Tartarus?!?
GG: Yeah. That… I… I don't know why they're doing that! It's not right! Just… just… getting rid of ponies because losing bores the bigwings. I helped build this place because I thought it'd be fun for everypony. So we could all live with water and food and entertainment and safe and secure and all those things ponies don't have on the ground anymore! But then the bigwings put in the Master Cloud Pillar to control everything. And they use it for this! As if they're the only ones who matter!
DW: This Master Cloud Pillar sounds important.
GG: Uggh… Yeah, it's meant to maintain the cloud-walking enchantments. But it can break any of them remotely. Now it's just used as a big threat: Do what we say or we'll drop you. It isn't even needed; unicorns could renew the enchantments.
DW: Can you lead me there?
GG: Why would you want that? I mean, fine, but it's guarded. They'd snap your disc in an instant if you got close! And it'd summon the bigwings, so there'd be a time… Wait, why are you grinning?
