When asked why she delves into the most ancient and treacherous temples in known and unknown Equestria, Daring's most likely response is a shrug and a casual, "Eh. It's a living."

At some points, however, the most petrifying ventures have the potential to be those merely within the complex ruins of the inner city. This is one of those ventures. Daring Do, with her heaviest load of cold hard cash strapped firmly to her back, must walk through the cold hard streets of Manehattan... at night.

Dash, Applejack, Twilight, Winona, and a boat.

This'll end well.

Noteworthy never planned on becoming a traveling musician. A gifted saxophonist accepted into one of the most prostegious musical academies, Noteworthy never would've dreamed of such foalishness.

And, in the end of it all, Noteworthy discovers what freedom truly means.

One night aboard a cruise ship, the stallion with a saxophone recounts his journey to an unexpected fan.

Inspired by the Bob Seger song, "Turn The Page."
