Applejack at the Edge of the World · 2:59am Sep 18th, 2023
Coming Soon
She still couldn’t see. That was the biggest issue facing her right now.
Leaning up against a tree, breathing heavily, burning up, and tired, the fever still wasn’t as bad as it was just a few hours ago. The irritation was mostly in her eyes now so she was hoping it would fully pass soon. She wanted to just get out of this swamp already and get to a nice bed with a cold glass of water to drink down. There probably wasn’t much more ground to cover, not with how far she had already gone. But again she was in a spot where the water level had risen up almost to her neck. Traveling through here was getting more and more uncomfortable.
She could push herself through it. She knew she could.
What was truly bothering her, what was on her mind more than any physical pain, was what she had lost in the swamp. Her bag and everything inside it. And Twilight’s journal most of all. She had really been contributing to it, she had really wanted to bring something back for Twilight to read about. Now it was gone—even if not totally lost it would be destroyed and degraded by the swamp. Everything she had drawn and written down in it was gone too.
“I’m sorry, Twilight… I swear I’ll make it up to you somehow.”
Her hat tilted down over her face a little and Applejack reached up to adjust it. While doing that she felt the two roses she had embedded in it. Remembering the gift, and their meaning, a somber look passed across Applejack’s face. She wouldn’t let her friends down—no way.
And she still had a job to do.
Applejack took one more deep breath to steady herself before leaving the tree and starting her final walk out of this swamp. She had to get to Elysium’s View one way or another.
I am excite.
a new adventure, success!
That reminds me that I must finish mine.
Will this be closer in length to Gets Lost or Around the World?

Should be in the area of 150-200k words. Nothing will be as long as my two Rainbow Dash stories.
Heck yes.
