Minty has always known there are other creatures in Ponyland besides ponies, so she traveled to the far north to see if she could find out who else is out there. In the far north region she stumbled upon a dragon! Although he seemed big and intimidating at first, he was really quite friendly! "We don't get many visitors wandering around this part of the land! I'm happy you came out this way!" he told Minty. She promised that Ponyville and the Dragonlands should try to build a better, more friendly relationship and that she would tell her kingdom about her discovery!
The dragon was made by a very talented friend of mine! ^.^

Dream Blue went on an grand adventure to the human car boot sale to rescue ponies in need! Her mission was a success, even finding a poor baby who was unwanted by her humans. As she is only small, it took her a long time to make it around the vast field, but she is proud to have done it! She picked up some grass and a stray bug from her adventure, but she’s all good!

"Adventure? Not likely!"
The huffy princess laughs.
"It's just a little float; it's not even overcast!"
"My princess, please reconsider!"
Her royal counselor cries.
"What of the Laughing Death, and their deceptive tiny size?"
"They lure in sailors, they lure in pirates,
With warm smiles and beguiling eyes;
But woe betide anyone who strays beyond safe tides!"
The princess rolled an eye and tossed her mane,
Her afternoon would not be curtailed!
But beneath her tiny float, something far-too-cheerful surveilled...

Rosedust carefully led the way along the road through the treacherous land, pausing to note a sword buried in the ground - no doubt marking where a warrior had made a final stand, under the shadow of an enormous tattered backpack. Yes, there was no doubt about it, the turquoise fabric monolith was unmistakably a backpack. But it was to be expected in this place, as were the immense planks that made up the ground. Once upon a time, a small (relatively speaking) village of giants had stood here, screened from weather and unwelcome visitors by magic. But this was ultimately their undoing, for it meant that when a great fire broke out they were also veiled from friendly eyes who might have quenched the blaze. The survivors resettled elsewhere, leaving their former home to slowly decay.
Now, the ruins were mostly inhabited by brigands, other criminals, and fell beasts who took advantage of the half-faded concealment spells to elude pursuers and prey on unwary travelers. Some decades ago a Ponyland caravan, forced to detour into the ruins by heavy snowfall, had fallen prey to one of the monsters and the treasures it carried now adorned the fiend's nest.
It was these treasures Rosedust had come to retrieve. She did not fear the danger, for she was dangerous herself and had chosen her companions well. Honeysuckle and Forget-Me-Not, two of the finest warriors among her Flutter Ponies. Megan, the adolescent human who had proved a stalwart ally of ponykind and who bore the Rainbow of Light about her neck, and her Earth Pony companion Sundance. Megan's sister Molly, and Sundance's mirror-born daughter Baby Sundance - both were young, but tough and brave all the same. And finally, Rodimus Prime - a leader and warrior from an alien race with mechanical bodies, who was helping the ponies out until he could return to his own time and universe.

Moonstone received a tip from the Sparkle Ponies that there was a cave filled with precious gems, far from Ponyland. Moonstone decided to make the adventure with Star Dancer, who showed her the way. After a long journey, they finally reached the cave and were greeted with a face of twinkling crystals!

Rosedust paused and allowed no tear to be shed. “Come with me...” Rosedust stopped and realized she had no idea her name.
“They once called me High Flyer...but once my wings were taken and my hair destroyed, I was called Grounded...” the purple pony sobbed.
Rosedust “ choose your name now, and for ever be called once I show you this hidden secret”
The purple pony thought long and hard...”Shimmer” she whispered “like the wings of a dragon fly”
Rosedust “we’ll follow me Grounded” sadly the purple pony followed Rosedust through the dark. She could only see from the glow of the rainbow wings...they came to an opening and a familiar look came before her....dark and purple and bubbling like gargling drooled mouth....Smooze!!!
“No you can’t” the purple pony cried. “I am sorry I ripped your wings so many time, I am sorry I am sorry...” Rosedust did not listened and kicked the purple pony into the purple goo with a giggle. Pain pierced the back of the purple pony as she fought to the surface. As she emerged she flew from the purple goo that sparkled like a radiant jewel.
“It hurts to grow wings, Sparkle” Rosedust Smiled “ but now you just have to be apart of the light...soon they were all surrounded by other flutter ponies with brand new wings!!
