Yes, Dr Zuul, abominations - I don't know how long you had been cooped up in your lab, but I would like to remind you a little history lesson - these so called 'Motu-vorous ectoplasmic organisms' you classified nearly caused the end of the pony races during the ancient times of the Three Tribes, feeding on the hatred the tribes had for each other and causing an eternal winter. Were it not for the Three Tribes letting go of their hatred - an act which, given the time period, had been repeated stated as almost unthinkable - did we had the means of stopping them. If not for them, we would be, at best, EXTINCT, or at worst, our ancestors would had been frozen alive for eternity by these things so they could feed on our hatred forever.





If there's anything I would agree with you here, Dr Zuul, is that yes, these ARE animals, mindless animals which we cannot judge as truly evil, because all they are doing is eating and reproducing to ensure their own survival. These things are also an EXISTENTIAL THREAT - OUR existential threat. The two designations are NOT mutually exclusive.





If there's ANYTHING of value out of these Windigoes, we COULD use these creatures in a few ways - like use their freezing magic to preserve life badly wounded or on verge of death, or turn the Windigoes into weapons to deter aggression - but that is only IF we can control them. And NO, don't give me that bullcrap about this being against the 'Natural order of things' - you are living in Equestria, where the Princesses controls the Sun and Moon, where the Pegasi can direct the weather, Earthponies can bend the earth and life, and Unicorns can use magic to FORCE the laws of physics to their bidding. Our entire existence is based on the CONTROL of natural forces that governs the universe, and always had been.







We even turned FRIENDSHIP into a weapon against evil via the Elements of Harmony. That has got to count for something.





These Windigoes, like the one you experimented on in that warded chamber, are still around, and we cannot simply afford to overlook them. It is with good fortune that for past thousands of years we had been able to hold them at bay by building a society found on love and harmony, but what is to say that this is to last?





What if something in the future that cause our nation to fragment and hatred to arise? What about our neighbors, many of them which are evolved from aggressive predator species who are not only less peaceful but even glorify violence and hatred? What if a world war breaks out and allow these Windigoes to breed like rabbits? We can't predict the future, doctor, only prepare for eventualities, and believe me, it'll ONLY be a MATTER OF TIME before the Windigoes would rise again. We need a long term solution.





If you like preserving them so much you and your team better find a way to TAME and CONTROL these so called 'force of nature', because if you can't... even you know what the only other alternative is.





We're on a tight schedule, doctor. Better get to work."
