When the mysteries of the known world are exhausted and dreams drive those willing to listen ever further, what's next? What lies beyond, in the footsteps of the heroes that walked this path before? And more than that, just what lies at the end of that road?
In an age where the adventures we've come to know and love are history for all but the oldest of ponies, these are things that have driven Crescent for much of her life. Only out there, in places long untouched, if ever, by ponykind, will she find the answers to her questions, on the road that a group of friends, on their final adventure, walked before her.
Note: Set hundreds of years after the show's finale.

-whistles- That's a hell of a way to start a story. Not quite in medias res, blending adventure, mystery, danger, determination, hopefulness and possibility of a terrible failure, and somehow you've managed to strike a balance between them all.
Consider me hooked.

Thanks. If you'd like to read beyond this, I have some of the next chapter written over on SpaceBattles in segments, though i've been a little slow on updates as of late. :)
