Alchemy – pony in the form of a Timberwolf

Sleepyhead - mechanic

Rarity – help escort Sweetie

Applebloom – AJ disappear

School friendship - dangerous

AB – Fluttershy is in cabin in the Everfree.

Why is AJ pursing RD into the forest?

Roswell – black fur + yellow/blue mane– fly to meet others.

How’s Beatrix.

Fluttershy’s cottage and shack burned

Statues: Fluttershy draped on slab of stone. Detailed set of intricately carved burn marks on her upper thighs.

 

Powerful posed Discord.

 

 

Dyny and Mango cautiously approach.

 

Skylight / Dyny check the statues. High Arcana.

Cockatrice? Harmony? Discord? Dyny – advanced spell.

Mango asks Forest Storm if Fluttershy statue is ill.

The burns seem weird. Eerie freshness.

Dirt around also burned.

Mango whacks at Discord’s tooth with her hoof.

Discord moves! Looks shocked and then angry.

Mango says she is sorry.

He talks but she can’t hear him.

Discord manifest!

“What have you done to Fluttershy!”

“Turned her to stone to save!”

Dyny/Frostbite, “Dying to what?”

Frostduck “freak!” and then quacks. Mango laughs.

Discord not sure what she is dying of.

Burns even though fire extinguished.

Dyny – “How long burns happening for?”

30 years D:

“What caused it?”

Don’t know.

He can’t heal it.

Only head unstoned?

Her head might fall off.

Her friends help. They tried but it didn’t work. It was they that turned her to stone!

No longer a duck, Frostbite is torn between yelling at Discord, insulting Discord, and tackling Mango.

"He's gone quackers! It must be avian flu," Mango giggles while trying to pull out of the headlock

Frostbite cares not if Flutters lives or dies!

Discord gets angry!

Frostbite disappears.

Mango attacks and then also disappears.

They reappear on Mount Everhoof! Frostbite and Mango floof up. Mango cuddles up under Frostbite’s armour :3

“You can have them back once they’re done.”

"Wait, Starlight was asking for the unicorns, Twilight wanted us to solve what's going on" says Skylight.

Mango and Frostbite return. Both are floofy from the cold. Dyny brushes stray snow off.

Mantises and Everfree. Discord is dubious.

“Go in cottage?” Burned out.

Many ashes.

Head to Alchemy – any insight? With Scoot.

Scoot hideout.

Mango promises to help find the body – somewhere out in the Everfree? Or school.

Ponyville fire? Magical fire. Others? Many pnies lost homes.

Dr Bonesaw! Black Crag

In Ponyville Hosptial.

“When Mantises?”

To the Hospital! Doors wide open.

Go inside.

 

 

 

 

Mango fails to engage the nurse.

Mango finds ears perk up. He’s down the corridor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Burns! Didn’t realise Discord still there.

Face sours about the burns. Fires from his house!

Frostbite quacks angrily at him.

Red unicorn with curly hair.Smol purple unicorn with blue mane. Wife and I moved in 30 year ago (fires 20 year ago). Pregnant. Gave birth to devil!

Unicorn but they are not unicorn. Nor same colours.

When she got her cutie mark she burned down the house + wife.

Burns could not be cured.

Where kid? Chased into everfree.

Unicorn medical specialists. Not discern it. Either evocation or enchantment. Or a curse.

Everfree in Ponyville 15 yr ago.

Black Liquorice is the daughter!

She had a flame cutie mark.

The party head out. Forest Storm leads but Everfree opposes.

Encounter 4 green meteors that land in the distance ahead of you. Skylight – this is the same as Black Liquorice’s cutie mark!

 

 

 

 

Griffons + Liquorice. She has a cut. Craters burning.

“Hey!”

“Not scared of daddy.”

Daddy burned.

Help!

No cure!

What is your magic?

Don’t know.

Accident?

Yep

Skylight dubious.

Frostbite believes her.

Mango sad.

Skylight – why trust her.

No reason to lie.

Throughout history – 4 ponies move celestial objects! Meteors!

Mango thinks – we should get her for the school.

Overkill daddy kill.

Mango touches the fire with her lance and it burns away.

Skylight casts ‘read aura’ on the fire. Evocation + enchantment – no curse.

Mango suggests – drain magic or put magic water on it?

More Liquorice.

Griffons unnerved. Party move through. Frostbite strides forth like a pimp.

Family hated me. Couldn’t please them. 10 years. Got her cutie mark and made a flame. Bright green and told parents. Parents turned on her. By the time she was 8 the parents became hostile. She responded poorly. Magical Surge struggle to control magic. House caught fire. Ran away. Went to Flutter cabin. Flutter older sister. Stayed the night and father came after her with angry mob. Used powers uncontrolled. Magic Surge and burned cabin. Left her to forest. Forest left her alone.

Green magic connected to Everfree.

Casttle move in. Books. She found a recent book. Elements used to suppress seeds. Tree House unguarded. She has the elements! Enchantment Magic – gift to Celestia. When she was 14, Celestia was put away for what she did! 18 she made new companions – the guard. At 20capture element of Honesty (in dungeons)! Jewel in guard’s breast plate. Spread her gifts – purple star on back of gem! She has the element of magic. Dragons! Ash.

Flutters not important to her. Flutters opposes her.

“What is the point?” Just burn. “What about Beatrix?” No response.

Canterlot + Elements etc not try to save her.

Anyone extend hoof of friendship. Only Flutters. Look of uncertainty.

To the dungeons!

“There are other good ponies!”

Mango reached out to him.

Dyny reached out to Beatrix!

When I was 30 I killed my father.

 

 

 

 

Hideous dungeon beast.

 

Faded Orange pony.

Walls blood-stained. Apply Jack unresponsive to Mango hug.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Black Liquorice can’t be blamed. She hesitated. Frostbite’s speech got to her.
