The draconics are a race created for war but no war lasts forever. Like many mercenaries and other fighters throughout history once they are no longer needed they are feared and vilified. Years pass and those surviving draconics go into hiding. Life goes on but constantly hiding wears on my main character, Wanderwing's nerves. He decides to find the lost history of his race and prove they are not monsters. He is helped by a cast of mercenaries and a kind innkeeper.

In an effort to keep her mind occupied, Twilight Sparkle decides to delve once again into the grand mysteries of Pinkie Pie. This time, Twilight's focus is on her claims of growing up on a rock farm: like so many things related to Pinkie Pie, the idea that somepony could grow rocks as an agricultural product makes absolutely no sense. However, the investigation eventually leads Twilight to a rather... surprising discovery.

This is the first story in The Petriculture Cycle.
