I tried to message you but it says you can't receive them.

Spoiler

The first couple questions are a type of cypher. The clue is it is a type of salad, as well as an old emperor.

With this being the last day before submission, some clarification on the rules for those of us in bigger groups, as the rule is written just for two partner groups. Do we each post several different letters summarizing the same group members, as that would be a little redundant?

You can either all submit what you learned about each other or each pick an individual in the group to write your letter on. All letters will be a bit different as you each will have learned something different about friendship along the way even if what you learned about your new friend/s along the way

Good Morning @Twilight Sparkle, I will be next to present my letter from my group:

Spoiler

Dear Princess Twilight,

This week I worked with several new friends, and one in particular is BornAgainBrony. His favorite member of the Mane 6 is Rainbow Dash, with his favorite Non-Mane 6 pony being King Sombra. A favorite episode of the Twilight's Kingdom finale, part 2 in particular, and favorite song being Celestia's Ballad. Now the show itself has meant a lot to him, even from the very beginning being one of his biggest lessons about simply remembering the power of friendship, something he'd forgotten long ago in his childhood and turned cynical by the world he was trapped in. Getting into this fandom, he felt exactly like Luna must have, being brought home and welcomed, and as a place to hide, he had obsessed myself with learning and work as a way of supplementing what was missing. To open up again and let it all in, it's probably the most important thing that has ever happened to him. Finally his favorite Element or Pillar also being  his favorite pony. Seeing it exemplified best in Tanks for the Memories, explaining so much about his life that he had somehow never quite grasped, describing it in terms so simple that even children could understand. Claiming it's so ridiculously obvious that Loyalty is his element as he's always willing to crazily stand against the very forces of nature to hold ontosomething he cares about. He had never seen such loyalty demonstrated anywhere else until Rainbow Dash tried it, even willing to sacrifice her favorite season for it.

This experience was not just fun to solve the clues but doing it with a group, because one thing I learned about friendship is not just helping others solve the clues, but also explaining or working through the process for how to solve it to give them confidence to contribute more. It was a nice team building experience and allowed a few of us to communicate with each other personally.

I hope the others not just in my group took plenty from this scavenger hunt like I did.

Good morning, @Twilight Sparkle! I wanted to give you a letter that I wrote about my friend. I didn't see the event on the home page of the forum, so I hope I'm not too late in submitting a letter.

Spoiler

Dear Princess Twilight,

During this week, I was able to talk and learn about a friend who I talked to from time to time, but one who I never got to truly and fully know. That person in particular was @TBD. Some of his favorite ponies overall are both Rainbow Dash and Princess Luna. His favorite non mane six pony is Tempest Shadow. His favorite episode of the new season is the episode, "The Beginning of the End." His favorite new song of the season is "Lotta Little Things." The biggest friendship lesson he learned is learning to forgive yourself and to let go of your past. The pillar of element that he connects to the most is Sorcery. I learned that there is more to a friend that meets the eye. I remember talking to TBD here and there when it involved Kingdom Hearts. Other than that, we never really talked to each other that often. I think this scavenger hunt was very helpful as it helped me to learn more and more about someone that I rarely talk to. It helped me to realize that even if you talk to your friend and get to know them, then there will always be something more to learn about said friend. I'm really glad to have taken part of the event as I look forward to learning more and talking to my friends more often in the future. 

Your friend and many faithful forum members, Dynamo Pad.

Hi Princess @Twilight Sparkle, I have a letter here that I've wrote for you about friendship.

Spoiler

I've worked with some awesome new friends and one in particular who was really cool and helpful was 2nd Amendment Brony, I've spoken to him maybe once or twice in the past but never really got to know him.

 

I found out that his favourite ponies are Rainbow Dash and Starlight Glimmer while I also found out that his favourite new episode is 'Uprooted' which contains his favourite new song which is 'The Place Where We Belong', he told me that the biggest friendship lesson he learned was that telling the truth is more important even if it hurts someone.

 

And finally, I learned that the pillar who connects to the most is Strength which is awesome.

I really hope that we can talk more from now on and hopefully become even closer friends because it's been a pleasure.

 

Thank you for allowing me to take part in this scavenger hunt, it was really fun and I hope it'll come back in the future.

 

Your one of many faithful forums members and followers, TheRockARooster.
