I've made progress though! I think my magic is getting better and stronger. With Zecora's help I have become more focused and calm. She got me to stop thinking about Trixie for a little while.
I began to harvest some of the poison joke, wearing gloves of course, I don't want to go through that fiasco again! I'm collecting them in a jar for Harmony to eat and she seems quite happy!
Oh, I forgot to mention, Hearts and Hooves day passed a little while ago. We didn't do much to celebrate though. Zecora gave me a chocolate bar she called 'Friendship Chocolate' it tasted a little funny but fruity. I didn't complain.

For a while I sat, trying to clear my mind as I stared at the little tree I had given Zecora. Harmony sat beside me on her perch. It was very dark outside as usual, but you could tell it was night time with the distant stars almost hidden behind the trees. When looking out the window I saw a pair of glowing green eyes, then two, then three.
I announced it to Zecora, and she got grabbed her spear from the wall and ran outside with me. Eventually we did defeat the timberwolves with struggle. Zecora explained to me that monster attacks do happen here. It's something I would have to get used to.
She showed me her spear, and said it was something she had made as a little filly back home. It was very special to her, and told me it had been a long time since she had gone back to her home village in Zebrica. She told me how when she was young she learned to fight off lions and other wild creatures. Later she got much more interested in studying magic and potion making.
Although Zebra's cannot get cutiemarks, they admire them greatly and tattoo them on as symbols of their culture. They have a great representation, not always being about their talents or destinies, but sometimes that zebra's great achievements. Some of the symbols they wear are even the symbols of ancient gods and goddesses, and are meant to bless the zebra from that specific god. Bless them with luck for many years to come.
Oh, I'm so excited! Zecora has taught me so much and I love to learn as much as I can, and hearing about her home and culture is wonderful!
I wish the girls could hear about it too. I bet Rarity would have some inspiration from it all! She could make a zebra based fashion line using some of their traditional or festive outfit designs!
Sorry, I'm getting much too excited! Once again, I must focus!

I've gone through much more books in The Castle of The Two Sisters. Still finding nothing on the amulet.
I began to explore the castle more, make sure I didn't miss anything. I stayed there overnight, and Harmony came with of course. I brought some candles and food and just read through books for a while.
It was nice. But I felt... alone.
I'm really starting to become homesick. I miss the library, but most of all I miss my friends. I know I can get back to them.
Someday.
I'll wait. I'll wait ten years if I have to. I know they'll come back to me- or I'll come back to them.
