Seriously, do a spelling check before you publish this.

I'll go over it again for errors thank you for informing me
This story was just 17 extremely long run-on sentences. I even went and counted them. You need capitalization and correct punctuation if this is to go anywhere. That and this was just insanely rushed.

I will be honest, this story concept has a great deal of potential. However, I do have to agree with you. I could be wrong, but I believe this Author to be fairly young and an inexperienced writer.
To the Author, I like the story Idea, and I like that you put some thought into this, however you really rushed this. Try not to rush from one check point to the next. When you reach the next check point, stop and expand on that idea.
Check point one. Your starting in the forest. Im OK with this. Personally I seldom read the before Equestria parts of HIE stories. Its seldom worth it. However you never show his thoughts or observations about the forest. You never describe the forest. Those first few sentences could be made into several paragraphs with just a little patience and thought. However you do get a huge pat on the back for not having the OC fight a manticore or hydra in which the OC wins the fight with little to no effort what so ever. This is just a little constructive feedback on ways you can improve your writing.
What ever you do, keep writing. Authors grow by writing. Remember what is always said of the Great American Author Mark Twain. "He wrote more garbage than gems during his life, but those gems that he did write became true american literary classics." So what ever you do, don't sweat those stories that might not be your best work. This is a site for people who write for a hobby, and while there are some fantastic and talented Authors here, never forget that everyone here writes for fun.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and track the story, but I do expect better. Here's a tip...When typing, you can let the computer catch most spelling errors and mistakes. However with that being said capitalization will be left to you. Don't make the sentences short and choppy like this one. Don't let them be extremely long run-on sentences that last forever and have no stopping point in sight and take up three lines then make ya wanna go back and count how many times it happened like this one. You have to find the delicate balance between them for it to work correctly and flow. Improve your description of things such as your character and settings. If you're in a region with a particular accent then give it to your character.
EXAMPLE: "Y'all should get ya-selves inside right 'bout now."
That's more southern but I live in Louisiana so that's the one I'm most comfy with using. I'm also happy with how your character didn't whoop a hydra's ass like it was nothing. (however entertaining it might sound) I'm sure you have great potential to be tapped into and used, and I hope you find it. Have multiple people look over it if you feel you made mistakes and wanna catch them or get a proofreader from the site. They really can work wonders to a bad story if ya get a good one and they know what they're doing. Here's to another budding writer on his way to improvement. Cheers! *Raises shot glass and downs it*
More pls
Lots of potential, but until the spelling/grammar is fixed I cannot procede further. Let me know when it is edited
What?
Well, I would recommend reading the chapter out loud before publishing it. That way you are more likely to notice typos and such.
I still enjoyed the chapter though.

Thanks dude appreciated
Here are some (likely) errors I noticed:
Comma behind ‘cringed’.
Comma behind ‘replied’.
Unnecessary comma.
you're
Period/dot should be space.
Either one or three periods.
Same as before.
Second comma should be a period.
Also, was it really called the fire north?
Period should be space.
First s should be uppercase.
Part of the same line, so the cited quotation marks should be removed.
Also, ‘‘ha her’’ ?
Comma behind ‘closer’.
Should just be one period.
Uppercase S should be lowercase.
Uppercase W should be lowercase.
I do not think that is the correct syntax.
First t should be uppercase.
Should only be one period.
out
mane
Comma behind ‘finished’.
awakened
Either one or three periods.
forage
Note that these are only the ones I noticed.
