It's a simple goal, but one that's not in the very least easy. Not in this day and age and most certainly, not in a time of political strife. Unbeknownst to our traveler, a student of the arcane arts, he begins his trek to the capitol of Equestria: Canterlot.

He'd fly, if only he were capable.
He'd use magic, but his talents don't stem far enough.

And so our traveler moves along his way, though arduous and tedious as it is, he only wishes to make it to Canterlot, and seek an audience with her Majesty, Princess Celestia.
