    While welcoming some new ponies to Ponyville, the main six and spike are challenged to a scavenger hunt. They all accept, but who said it had to take place in town, or even Equestria? As soon as the sealing words were said, they were whisped away, to a land of seven tribes and a great evil. A land once known as the Land of Dragons.

    NOTE: My Little Pony is property of Hasbro and everything else belongs to Emily Rodda. If you have not read the Deltora books, don't worry this won't contain any major spoilers. This will include elements form all the books, including the companion ones.

    If you have any criticism or ways I can improve, please tell me.

    >>496675 It was a faithful adaptation of the books, but in my opinion they could have made it a lot better.

    i don't know what to say...

    I'm not good at nit picking....

    Well for starters I think a cold opening would be better, with Applejack already searching for her hat. you could lay down her situation while that's underway.

    The sequence of actions and movement within a setting should be fluid and seem natural. You have to think about how you would experience or see it as if you were there.

    [

    Lost in a strange land and hunted by hairless apes in dreads, Applejack searched for her favorite hat. It was slightly chilly and vicious gusts kept whipping small debris. This wasn't one of her best mornings.“Could this day get any worse?”

    In immediate response, a pebble the size of a bit zoom up and hit her square between the eyes.  “Ah just had t’ ask...”

    After taking a moment for the spots to disappear from her eyes, AJ went back to searching for her hat.

    After a minute or so, she discovered it lodged between two stones sloping into a rocky outcropping. Braving the uneven terrain she carefully pulled it out and flipped it onto her head...

    ]

    yeah....there you go.. you have to work movement and descriptions like that.

    then again, that's my habitual writing style so it's not flawless in any way.
