"Well..." Her voice trailed off.
"It all started in class a few weeks ago. Teaching archaeology, I came across a rather familiar passage given by one of my students, for an essay."
~~~
"Here you are Professor." The student had given her their essay before leaving class. The bell rang, and the class was dismissed. Professor Do sat back and read over it, but as she read on things even she didn't know about came into view.
It was then Daring Do had decided what she would have to do. Going from city to city, she checked all of the libraries and asked about the artifact that was mentioned in the essay. It wasn't given a name but the information given about it was good enough that one pony, a professor, in Saddle Arabia, had known about it. In fact they had plenty of information. It was known as the Amulet of Kings.
At the time, Daring Do was avoiding something. Or someone to be more exact. Tushul was his name. A giant bird, the complexion of leaves at the core of autumn. Along her journey to find the Amulet, she often faced many battles against this persistent foe.
A few days later after the third attack...
He stopped.
She was unsure when he would strike. It was then, she felt safe. She had recently located the location but was trying to get him off her tail for a few moments so she wouldn't lead him straight to the treasure. But that is exactly what she did. Reaching the ruin, venturing through, she made it to the end of her perilous adventure. Or at least that is what she had thought.
Right when she was about to retrieve the amulet, none other then the pesky Tushul showed up. She had led him straight to the amulet without even knowing it. He took the amulet, and just like that. He was gone.

"You see, Tushul, the giant bird, came flying down the valley right this way. I was hoping you might have seen him, or the amulet. I'm afraid if he had left it here, then it's somewhere within the orchard. And if so, then I have to join the treasure hunt to find it." She then blinked.
"Yes I know, how strange is it to see a teacher doing all of this stuff- I am not sure you remember me, but I'm Daring Do. Rainbow Dash's... err, friend."
