//------------------------------// // Epilogue // Story: The Omitted Forest // by TwiztedSaxGuy //------------------------------// Hurricane just returned from the summit that was scheduled earlier than he would’ve liked, but that was besides the point. Of course nopony agreed, but I’d say it resolved quite well, actually too well. After marching into unreal freezing weather I finally reached the destination. It was a beautiful land with blue skies and soil so rich you could eat it. But what was odd is that the other races seemed to have found this paradise as well. We nearly went to war over it! That was until the greatest thing that has ever existed happened to me. The paradise suddenly turned into a tundra of cold and permafrost. We located our troops into a cramped cave, we fought over the sizes of our camps in a cave! As ridiculous as that is, it was pretty funny. We did, however, say some pretty nasty stuff about the other races and I guess some wendigo, as Princess Platinum’s assistant put it, came from the ceiling and froze us. Everyone was screaming and freezing to death. And then the strangest thing happened. Our assistants, who I now rather consider my best friends, became friends with one another over some small talk about how crazy we are! But what they said led me to a sudden epiphany. We’re all ponies. That simple three worded line has changed my life for the better. I now find myself reluctantly going back to what is now Cloudsdale. We decided to name that paradise, Equestria, so I did take the initiative of renaming some of our cities for the Pegasus. I wanted to stay a bit more with my newfound friends, but we all had obligations to our citizens. It truly is wonderful to see the sky blue with fluffy clouds that are finished with their snowy precipitation. I can see a rainbow far in the distance. It reminds of something Clover the Clever told me. Friendship is Magic.
