After watching Ash's ship go down from a distance, guards notified Cadence of what they had seen. She spread the word to Twilight in the morning.
"Twilight, this is Cadence. I have been informed that a ship of some sort has crashed near the Crystal Empire."
"I will be there to help you look around. The pilot may have answers for what we have spotted earlier."
Arriving at the gate, Twilight waited for Cadence and Flurry Heart to get ready. Setting out to investigate the crash site, they found what looked like another unknown creature. This one had long ears that stuck up at angles. It's skin was nearing blue since it had gotten so cold in the snow. They soon found the ship, and noticed what was left of Ash's footprints. Keeping radio contact, they split up to find the ship's missing wing, and to find the pilot. Twilight went to find the wing while Flurry Heart searched for Ash. Cadence searched the ship for anything that would be helpful, but she found nothing. Twilight soon returned with the missing wing, and picked up a call from Flurry.
"I found the pilot. He's lying unconscious in a gully. Lock on my signal and help me out please."
Twilight followed her niece's signal and they returned with Ash held in their magic.
"He has mild hypothermia, and his skin is discolored due to frostbite.", Flurry Heart reported.
"Let's get him to the hospital before it gets worse.", Twilight suggested.
