Inari looks over all assembled.

Inari (quietly): "I suppose this is a good time to start."

''Inari walks over to the far end of the room, and weaves an enchantment, causing the wall to ripple, before showing a large image of Rat Trap, both in his pony form, and in his monstrous winged form, created from Inari's memories of the previous fight. Inari weaves a second enchantment around herself, allowing her voice to carry.''

Inari: "Mares, gentleponies, and Flashfire, this is Rat Trap. Based on the information Captain Orbit and Glaive gathered from King Aspen, it can be concluded that this creature is up to no good, and likely the destruction of Equestria as we know it. Presently he is based on Mt. Everhoof, guarding a large mythical artifact, which serves as an anchor to the nether realms. This anchor allows him to reach across the realms and bring minions across to work his evil deeds. Mare Do Well seeks to eliminate his influence and prevent war from breaking out. By defeating him, and removing the anchor, he will be unable to bridge from any other location in Equestria. Mare Do Well previously spent time removing other similar, though lesser artifacts from Equestria, as they serve the same purpose. They all have to go in order to make this realm safe from his influence, and the influence of similar beings. Presently this single artifact and anchor remains."

''Inari pauses for a moment drawing another breath. The image zooms in on Rat Trap's wings, where small shining pendulums can be seen.''

Inari: "Rat Trap is a powerful sorcerer, and is arguably one of the most dangerous creatures in Equestria right now, however together he can be defeated, and we do not walk into this battle blind."

Inari gestures to the creature’s wings and the many pendulums hanging from each wing.

Inari: "Using these pendulums, Rat Trap can hypnotize ponies within seconds. However I have the means to deal with them, so that you can fight him unhindered by this defense."

The wall ripples again, showing Rat Trap flapping his wings to create a wave of fire, and of the shadowy black ice.

Inari: "This fire, while hot, is unfocused and imprecise. It can easily be defended against, or avoided by taking to the skies. This fell ice, is a major threat. It appears to be heat resistant, and resistant to explosions. It is imperative that it be dealt with immediately."

Inari eyes Flashfire and Dazzling Light before the wall ripples again, showing the same shadowy stuff on the ground, as was in the ice.

Inari: "This shadowy fluid Rat Trap can create with magic is capable of penetrating surfaces such as the ground, reaching under it to threaten those who hide within it. For that reason it is important to stay mobile, or in the air, as he is large and not incredibly maneuverable." Inari coughs a couple of times, realizing that she hasn't spoken this much in a long time.

Inari: "Any questions?"
