Polished Gem
When I was giving lessons to Sunstone I performed a few tests that let me know that she was actually quite intelligent.
I would not have been surprised if she had been able to enter the School for Gifted Unicorns.
The real issue in trying to teach her is that I had no idea if she was actually learning anything.
When she was not being directly attended to tended to wonder off.
This seemed to stem from a natural curiosity for everything around her.
It almost felt like she had never seen a pony before.
Though for some reason they seemed to at least understand glass doors.
When I had lunch with my sister Sapphire Polish she asked if she could meet the filly I was watching.
I had known that my sister and her husband had been looking to adopt but were being indecisive about it.
I decided that there would not be a problem with it.
Emerald Garden
When the other orphans and I first woke to find Sunstone I one of the beds we were a little surprised.
Normally they were brought during the early morning of the day.
Naturally we wanted to know what her story was.
So some of them tried to wake her up while jumping on her bed.
I had told them that it would get them in trouble but they didn't listen.
When Sunstone woke up she showed no confusion over where she was.
The others were asking her all kinds of questions when she suddenly started to make randomish sounds.
For a moment some of us thought that she spoke some other language none of us knew.
Then she started to smelling one of the other fillies.
It was at this moment we realized that something was wrong with her.
It was at this point that the caretakers entered the room.
One of the them said that they would watch her and the other would explain her situation to us.
We were taken to the open area of the dining room.
Like the Empire had been banished to the eather for a thousand years Sunstone as they had begun to call her had been turned to stone.
For how long, well they didn't know.
The difference between the two situations was the she was still conscious and as a result lost her mind.
They would be keeping an eye on us to make sure that we were not picking on her as well.
Whenever Miss Polished Gem arrived to work with Sunstone I would stick around to help however needed.
Whenever she would wonder off I would make sure she didn't cause any problems.
Sapphire Polish
When my sister took me to meet the filly Sunstone we found her sleeping next to a green filly.
The two of them were just so adorable together.
The green filly was named Emerald Garden and would help take care of Sunstone.
The two had grown quite close to one another as well according to my sister.
I know that Spell Breaker and I had only really spoken about adopting one but we were open to adopting multiple to not separate siblings.
They may not have been related but they seemed close enough for me.
