Prequel to The White Mare
Fluttershy has recently taken up residence in her little cottage on the edge of the wild Everfree Forest, and has enjoyed the greater opportunities to go on excursions with her mysterious mentor, the reclusive goddess ponies know as "The White Mare" but whom she knows as simply Celestia.
One day her ancient friend approaches her with an adventure well outside the little pegasus' comfort zone. Will she be brave enough to attend the Great Dragon Migration, and who might they meet when they're there?

Loved seeing more of this AU! This was great, the characters were great, dragon ass-kicking was great...it was just awesome.
Nice story, but more than a little confusing with Spike and how Fluttershy reacted to Celestia, who i assume is NOT the Princess of Equestria here. Guess I'll have to read that other story mentioned to get the lowdown.

Yeah, I'm afraid you need to read The White Mare before you read this one.
Nicely done, a good addition to the 'verse you created. Partially reminds me of a fic idea I had, an AU of when we first meet Garble it went kind of similar but instead of Spike it was a dragon far, far older. You did good with this, and I enjoyed it

Spikey-Wikie....
An excellent prelude to The White Mare. We get to see Celestia on a typical day, Fluttershy showing tremendous courage, and one of the characters who was conspicuously absent from the original. A great read from start to finish. Thank you for it.
This is a story to smile wistfully to.
Loved it.

This is an AU from the Story 'The White Mare'. It's extremely good, and you should go read it!
In fact, I'm gonna go and read it again.
Warren, far as I'm concerned you are the best Luna-darn author on this site. Period. No ifs, whens and ors.
This golden nugget is the perfect example of why.
This is a gem of a story. I loved this chance to see the White Mare again. Thank you.
"prhase" --> "phrase"
Other than that, great story!
yay!
A sweet little thing to read and warm the heart even on a cold day.
Thank you
4630345 Thanks for the recommendation, I think I'll do that.

Fixed it, thanks!
Woah, Spike is doing pretty well for himself in this particular AU. Am I correct in concluding that he was hatched and raised post-banishment? Seems like something Celestia might have done to occupy herself during her extended time as a hermit.

You are correct in your assumption.
Wait this is a prequel... I'm confused.

A prequel, by my understanding, is a work that is written after another story, wherein the events take place at an earlier time in the narrative of the prior story.
This piece takes place after the prologue of "The White Mare" but before chapter 1.
Excellent, as always.
4634516 This sounds more like a midquel.
A prequel is a literary, dramatic, or filmic work whose story precedes that of a previous work,[1][2] by focusing on events that occur before the original narrative.[3] A prequel is a work that forms part of a back-story to the preceding work.
A midquel is a sequel which takes place during a chronology gap within a single previously completed work.
A sequel (also known as follow-up) is a narrative, documental, or other work of literature, film, theatre, television, music, or game that continues the story of, or expands upon, some earlier work.

What are you, a dictionary?
Midquel it is, then.

As long as it isn't a NyQuel. Those put me right to sleep.

Honestly, I prefer you took that one down. This is a rated everyone story.
Edit: Deleted the comment myself. Sorry. I prefer not to have that sort of thing in my all ages comments.
Even dragons aren't impervious to those kinds of burns.

Absolutely lovely, just like its predecessor. I don't think I'll ever get tired of this universe of yours.
4634848 Well looking back I guess I got a bit
so you taking it down is understandable, your story and all. Did not help that I logged off just after posting it. 
A nice side story for a nice, light-hearted AU
Thx!
Very gentle and sweet. I'd love to see more of this if you're up for writing it.
You can has review!
I need more old tymey Sisters reactions in my life.
