The Alicorn Legend

The Secret Room

Twilight pulled on a book, but it clicked instead of sliding off the shelf. The shelf slid back to reveal a small chamber. They stepped inside, and onto an outlined portion of the floor. Then the section of the floor began to lower, and they realized they were on a hidden elevator platform.

"Where do you think this goes?" asked Fluttershy in a nervous manner.

"I have no idea, but we will find out.", said Twilight, trying to calm her down.

Minutes later, the platform ground to a halt, at the end of a long stone tunnel, still lit with flickering torches, after thousands of years. The torches made Twilight wonder as if they were enchanted to stay lit, but they proceeded to the other end, and found a massive set of ornate double doors. Opening the doors, they were shocked by what they saw. They were in a humongous room, full of ancient texts and books. Twilight could not believe her eyes.
