Epilogue

I flew back to the small cottage near the edge of the everfree. It wasn't much of a house, nothing to fancy or over the top, but the house had character. The wooden walls of the cottage were dotted with round windows all over, some even inside the leafy foliage of the roof. The area around the house was lush with grass and flowers making up for the lack of decor on the outside.

But it wasn't what the house looked like that really mattered, it was the family inside. Fluttershy, Myself and our newest addition, Morning Dew. We shared the house, and we made memories in the house, That's what made it special.

When I landed a short ways of I took a moment to look around and take it all in. In the yards just below the hill the house sat on I could see my love resting on the grass with some of her animal friends keeping her company as Morning Dew running about in the yard, her red cape with blue square in the corner trailing behind, letting the world know she was a 'cutie mark crusader'.

I couldn't help but gaze at the little filly enjoying herself as she let her soft gray wings unfurl, gliding over a small hole. Her landing wasn't to great though as her mane caught under her hoof and she stumbled. She had a lot in conman with both her mother and me. Her gray coat being similar to mine, only a little bit lighter, and her long pink mane and tail being near perfect matches to her mothers, the one difference being a stripe running through both mane and tail that began red then split halfway into two red and blue streaks near the end. She was our pride and joy, with a soft, adorable side that could melt your heat, and a fun loving side that would get her in a few sticky situations from time to time.

After looking at our daughter my eyes turned to the gorgeous yellow mare who was smiling softly at the filly. Her long pink mane cascading over her where she lay. The butterflies that danced around her were near copies of her cutie mark. The natural essence around her mixed the beauty of the land seemed to make her all the more lovely on days like this.

In the 6 years I had known the filly in the yard she had brought countless smiles to my face and had filled me with a love for her. And in the 18 years I had known the mare nearby she had showed me a different love, a comforting love, the love of a friend as well as a lover. She had been my entire world for those years that I've known her, and do this days those feelings have not waned in the slightest.

Throughout my life I've been filled with happiness and joy thanks to those two. And I hoped I had brought as much joy to them as they brought me, and hoped to continue to bring joy to them. Because I knew they would be bringing me more then enough joy to spread. I was happy and I knew I would continue to be happy.
