Sprout was really, truly sorry for what he'd done to all the ponies of Maritime Bay - and beyond - during his power-fueled rampage. Really, he was! But sending him out into an atrociously muddy swamp to search for an obviously mythical flower in order to atone just felt like a bit too much! Plus now he has to deal with an annoyingly lost pink pegasus. And what's this now with the rhyming zebra?!

Bingo card is in the author's note at the end of the story to avoid spoilers.

Quick Authors Note: This is my attempt at something bittersweet. It's new territory for me and I completely understand if the passing of our favorite magical horses is not something you want to read about! If you do, I really do hope you enjoy and leave any criticisms and critiques you feel necessary! I'm always looking to improve!!
