Gold at the Start of the Rainbow

Hey fillies & gentilecolts! You're not gonna believe this!

During my cataloging of the Maritime Bay historical center, I found a misplaced donation to the records from years and years ago meant for the cartography department back when that had a budget. And you know what it is? An encoded map to an ancient relic held by one of the bearers of harmony! This must have been made around the time of her service or shortly after it had ended.

This must be valuable as this map is in different pieces, in different places across Equestria. If we find one, it may lead us to the next. Time is of the essence and we cannot let the trail get any colder! I'm gonna need your help to find this sacred treasure of St. Rainbow the Loyal. Each of the riddles must have been made by the record keeper back then to keep track of each location. Let's work together everypony and see where the rainbow road will lead us! It says here in middle ponish:

 

"To find the pin, you need only look. At the moment where Rainbow became a full fledged Wonderbolt." 

 

What could this mean? The answer must have been sourced from Rainbows past. If anypony finds anything, don't hesitate to let me know!"

What could it mean? Let's look at the moment when Scootaloo says: "Rainbow Dash, you're finally a full fledged Wonderbolt!"

Not much, sad. But maybe @Scootaloo could tell us anything? AHA! Her profile looks SUS!

What is it? Some candies in pumpkin shaped bowl? Well it could be a nice clue and we could try to find exactly the same moment in the show, probably Nightmare-Night related ep :sunny-nightmare-night:. But filename says it's there since October 2021 so the clue seems a bit stale. So it may be a dead end, or maybe not, who knows :orly:

Let's check who else was there when it happened!

@Spitfire! Of course! I would like to ask her, but she looks busy so I just checked her profile. And what do I see?

A PIN! And it's pretty much golden... like @Spitfire herself has color of gold! At the start of the Rainbow Dash's legend.

Well, miss @Spitfire, we have some questions. Pweese :yay:

Oh I'm sorry, but that just appears to be a bowl of candy from last years Nightmare Night celebration. But keeping looking though!

Owkay owkay. It may be the riddle says about the Wanderbolts' pin. There's two of them. The silver for a wing-pony and the golden for the leader position.

Btw, the moment when RD gets the gold doesn't have much details as well.

we writing a DM too you Sunny or post here where it is?

Either one works. Just keep it hidden in case anypony else wishes to find the clues on their own. Speaking of clues, we've uncovered another piece of our map with another riddle leading to another piece of the Treasure of St. Rainbow the Loyal.

 

"To find this badge, you'll find by tracing back to Rainbow Dash's Wonderbolt beginnings."

 

Seems much like St.Dash herself, this treasure hunt will have us zigging and zagging all over Equestria.

Hey, everypony! :fluttershy:

We've found yet another piece of our map with our next riddle! ^_^ 

Which means that another piece of the treasure has been reached of St. Rainbow the Loyal! :eager:

"To find the coin, you can find it in an awesome club. The awesomest, previously under-appreciated pony in Ponyville."

I wonder where this next clue will lead us to next. Only one way to find out! :izzy-oooh:

Don't give up, stick together and keep up the great work, everypony! :grin:

Hey there, everypony! :eager:

Another clue has been found on our map! :pinkie:

Which means we have another riddle and one more piece of the treasure that will lead to St. Rainbow the Loyal!! :PIPPIPHURRAY:

"To claim this trophy, you need only find when Rainbow's legend truly became a reality!"

I wonder where this next clue will lead us to. Perhaps it has something to do with singing. Only one way to find out! :ooh:

Keep up the great work and don't forget. Hoof to Heart, we'll do our part, everypony! :)

Alright everypony, you're all doing a great job! We almost have all of our clues!

Only one more piece to find the treasure of St.Rainbow the Loyal. And we can find it using this.

"To claim this trophy, you need only find when Rainbow's legend truly became a reality!"

Its hard to tell if this is where our journey ends or where it is just beginning. But I know we can make this journey together!

Hey, everypony! :fluttershy:

I hope the Treasure Hunt has been going well for you all! ^_^ 

After the recent clue with the trophy, it looks like all the clues have been revealed! :eager:

All we need to do now is to find the Treasure of St. Rainbow the Loyal! :izzy-oooh:

For those that have found the treasures and their location, don't forget to send a DM to me, @Sunny Starscout! :grin:

For those that haven't found the treasure yet, that's okay as there's still plenty of time! :) 

With how tricky it was to decipher the last riddle, the final day to submit your answers will be this Thursday! :kindness:

Don't forget to work together if you are stuck and need any assistance. Hoof to Heart, we'll do our part. :coco:

Do your best and keep up the great work, everypony! :pinkiehappy:

I sent mine to you, Sunny. :sunny-nightmare-night:
