The Text is a mystery; appearing to people selected based on a criteria known only to itself, offering to open doors and paths. Such as it was for Nathan Bell. Now in Equestria with little to his name, Nathan's out to find out just where this path that was opened for him leads. The first stop? The ever enthusiastic Swift Mist and the ill-tempered Doppler; long time friends, coworkers and roommates.

Alright! Great to see the snowball starting to roll. :)
An amusing introduction with a nice bit of characterization. Lots of background ponies: curious to see how many of them get expanded upon and take major roles in the story as things go forward. Looking forward to seeing more.
But it's destiny!
I hope they go to the crystal empire!
What could go wrong?
What happened to this story? I'd love to see more!
6260478 It actually came up on my 'What to Write Next' list. Since I haven't started writing yet (was sick yesterday), I'll see which file gets booted up.
6260505 Looking forward to it!
It still lives

And doppeler and the Griffin was glorious
New comment because I jus started reading.
So quick question, is Coltborn Auburn, TX? Or some other town/city? Or just random pony-city? Or is this answered in a future chapter because somebody who read this already asked that question and I'll learn when I keep reading. If so, sorry for the stupid question.
6740058 To be honest, it's not really anywhere specific. I did browse the map around the Niagara Falls area for inspiration and used Port Colborne as the base for the name's pun, but the rest is just small 'middle of nowhere' town stereotypes I came up with.
6740084 Ah, well that gives me comparative geographic region. That's the important part. North. Lakes. Some of which also Great. Generic Northern small town is both diferent and the same as generic Southern small town. There are differences in the rednecks. Subtle, but they're there.
Any chance of an ETA on the next chapter, or is this story just in unmarked hiatus?
