Welp, with RG5: Book 1 drawing to a near close, I wanna see what you guys want to see next in Book 2 or short story ideas! Go on, let me at 'em!

Well, the gang getting to see places other than Maretime Bay, Zephyr Heights and Bridlewood would be great (like, for example, the Crystal Empire). As well as the gang getting more lessons from the past to work and prepare for a better future (including getting a better idea of what happened to the assorted non-ponies). Perhaps making friends amongst the Sea Ponies and assorted non-pony species. Adult Spike (as well as possibly Ember and Smolder) making an appearance and getting treated with more respect would be excellent. Or the gang travelling to the human world and finding out that, while 1000 years had passed on Equestria, only two decades went by in the human world (i.e. getting to talk to Sunset Shimmer and the adult versions of human counterparts of the G4 Mane Six).
