 “And she said it was me?” Asked Razzaroo.

 “Not exactly,” replied Rarity, “She said she saw a purple unicorn mare with a white mane and I thought of you.”

Razzaroo paused. “Well it wasn’t me. I’ve never even been in Ponyville and I didn’t know there were seeds, that could make savage roots come out the ground.”

The ponies expected that answer, but they were still disappointed. Not by Razzaroo’s innocence, but by not getting to the bottom of it.

 “Well, thanks anyway.” Rarity thanked her and they began to leave.

Razzaroo thought for a moment. “Don’t you think it’s a bit strange?”

 “What’s strange?” Asked Rarity.

 “Well I mean, she’s the one who fixed the problem very quickly, wasn’t she? Then she just tells you such a vague description.”

 “It did take a while for her to say anything specific.” Wondered Applejack out loud.

 “Do you really think it was my student?” Twilight asked.

 “Well, I can’t be certain, but it probably would be a good idea to question her.” Said Razzaroo.

 “Come to think of it,” thought Rainbow out loud, “Discord was pushing her a bit. It was like he wanted to pry something out of her.”

 “And Starlight did seem a bit nervous.” Added Pinkie.

 “And Discord did find it very amusing.” Fluttershy commented.

Twilight thought for a bit. “Star of my eyes. Shed some light. Glimmer of hope.”

 “What was that, darling?” Rarity asked.

 “I just remembered Discord’s puns. Do you think he was trying to tell us something?”

 “Yes, yes, yes,” Razzaroo interjected, “it does seem to me you’ve got some important clues.”

 “Come on girls, Starlight and I need to have a few words.” Said Twilight and they went back to Ponyville.
