You see, I think dragons are capable of using magic.

Hell, I think everyone is capable of using magic to some extent. Like, Rainbow can fly really fast, that's wind magic; Rarity can find crystals better than anyone, crystal magic at it's finest; and Pinkie's a chaos-magic user, period.

Awesome putting this in my favorites also good idea with magic infused crystals haven't seen many stories with that concept.

I completely understand the added magic. I believe the Blood Stone Scepter is magic so this fits perfectly. I can't wait until the next chapter.

Rarity you have no idea what you just started.

Another good chapter, epecially for Rarity, who got to reflect on her emotions. I'm glad that Starlight will be appearing in this story. What with being caught up in a love triangle, Spike's gonna need a good friend to talk to.

Rarity's jealousy gets to her, Ember has Matches joining the trip, and Garble starts his usual tricks. This is getting good. Keep it up.

7181328 Thanks. I do think Starlight may be the friend Spike needs, especially with who she's with.

Why do I feel that the rivalry of Ember and Rarity involves a wrestling ring filled with [insert stuff]?

7182623 You'll have to wait and see.

Spike used three little words: Fus Ro Dah!

tthank god this story doesnt have more chapters so i can go to bed

Garble....fuck you....just....fuck you.

I see I'm pretty late to the party, but I'll lay my two bits anyways. I love the overall pace of the story and I'm looking forward to more. However, I felt like that last bit with Garble was beryl much "telling" and not "showing" the story. Maybe if he voiced some complaints during the mob scene or grumbled to his friends about it, it would feel a bit smoother. So far looking like a fantastic story though. Keep up the good work!

Nice to see Twilight being a good friend to Rarity. And also Rarity finally coming to the conclusion of showing her love to Spike had a nice progressive build up.

Streamers lined the ceiling around the roots of the former Golden Oaks Library. Near one of the chairs, a rather chubby pink mare in a yellow shirt and frilly sky blue skirt was pushing around a small blue cannon.

You Fucking Bastard! What did you do to my Pinkie? Rather Chubby? We're talking about the Pony who can use normal balloons to fly. Rather Chubby? We're talking about the Pony who even on her worst day can outrun a flying Rainbow Dash. Rather Chubby! We're talking about the Pony who can pop out of vases, and pots like it's nothing! Rather Chubby! We're talking about the 4th wall breaking, never stops moving, talking at the speed of light, legendary partying, It only stops when you're dropping, future telling, reality shifting, oath binding, cook you into a cupcake, even Discords afraid of her might, living horror, Pinkie! Rather Chubby! WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE RANDOM PINK PRINCESS OF CHAOS HERSELF! If she's slightly chubby Celestia better be FUCKIN obese! WITH ALL THE GOD DAMN CAKE THAT NINNY EATS, JUST TO SIT HER SOLAR FAT ASS ON THE THRONE! YOU HAVE OFFENDED THE CRAWLING PINK CHAOS! AND AS ONE OF HER CHAMPIONS I AM HERE TO DEFEND HER HONOR!!! Besides that it was a good chapter! I'm enjoying this read, and fuck Garble he's trash.

I should explain something before I get tons of comments about this. You see, I think dragons are capable of using magic. While there is a general thing about them being resistant to it, I like to think they can technically use magic to a degree. Thus, I came up with the idea about the crystals infused with magical energy. It's a bit out there, but hey, this is a show where magic just simply runs the entire world it seems.

this is a misnomer. it depends on the breed but some dragon can actually use magic, most commonly chinese lung dragons use elemental magic. while certain dragons like wyverns are most resistant to certain types of magic (example, wyverns being resistant to fire magic, but can still be hurt by lightning) though it all varies from person to person
