//------------------------------// // Home // Story: Ponytale // by Dragonfire2lm //------------------------------// Frisk was shown a carving on wall above the sign. It had three symbols with arrows leading from one to the next in a circle. Tia explained that the carving represented the most basic law of all magic, that there is no such thing as a type of magic stronger than the rest. Frisk studied the carving and in their minds eye information was made clear. * Fire burns wood, wood absorbs water and water quenches fire. It's just like Rock Paper, Scissors! With their new insight, Frisk found a red switch with a fire symbol above it, they pressed it and both entrances were opened up once more. Tia smiled warmly and led the child through the rest of the Ruins until they reached a fork in the path. Tia pointed to the left path and told the young human that it led to Ponyville. The mare led Frisk down the right path and explained that it would take time for her little ponies to get used to the idea of a human in the Underground and until then she thought it would be best if Frisk stayed with her. Frisk's eyes almost popped out of their head. They get to live with the most awesome teacher ever? They didn't know what to do with the amount of kindness thrown their way! They fidgeted, but their words died in their throat as they looked at the cosy looking log cabin at the end of the path. It had a pink mailbox and Frisk noticed an outhouse off to the side. As Tia welcomed them to their new home, they were filled with DETERMINATION. Their jaw dropped when they were led inside, the cave had been carved out and expanded to become part of the house. It's bigger on the inside! They left their shoes by the door, the plush red carpet muffled their steps as they whizzed around the house in excited exploration. Past the entryway the walls were white marble, eloquently carved furniture decorated the large living room and a fireplace blazed merrily near the back wall with large cushions and sofas organized in a semicircle around its warm glow. There was a hallway down to the right, past a staircase that led to the floor below.
