The Great and Powerful Trixie is a proud and impulsive mare, which has gotten her into trouble more than once. This time, she has rashly promised to enter the dreaded Everfree Forest in order to discover the nature and intentions of a strange pony skulking within.
At least she won’t have to go alone.
Final edits and revisions (hopefully) finished on 08/11/20.
This is a side story to A Demon In Equestria. While it can be read alone, it will make more sense if you read Demon first.
Please note that while this story occurs entirely in the world of Equestria, the setting has been heavily influenced by Dungeons & Dragons and the Pathfinder system.

Overall pretty solid lad
Pretty damn good start hopefully I get to see more of this story I'm putting you in my watching list
I need this story in my life
ame here from demon, i like this story, qand i see we have now met the elves of equestria. also, am i the only one thinking that desecrated graves makes me think lich/necromancer, and that these idiots are already getting over their heads? (and i use idiots in the most DnD, lovable band of merry idiots kind of way)

Yeah, desecrated graves does raise the suspicion of either necromancers or grave robbers... And with Grave Robbers that sometimes has a tendency to cause undead to rise pissed about their graves being desecrated or unleashing ancient evil.
10283427 Well ... among my gaming group "adventurer" and "moron" are considered synonymous any way ....

Now I just want to see the barkeep who says ‘oh god no...’ whenever someone announces they are the heroes or adeventurers

is someone going to answer that phone? cause we called it! also, i feel called out by fido's assessment, even if it's not as true in equestria... though he would make a killing if it was a store that sold everything someone might need to restock on mid adventure.
EDIT: and on many refreshes and second viewings... FIRST!

, enjoy your mustache, 
Fido was hoping the same, unfortunately he missed that a forgotten ruin in a haunted forest (by most ponies views) would actually see very few travelers over the years, making it quite difficult to support his shop.
If Trixie convinces him to relocate, however, he'll be the only magic shop in Ponyville, and the only magic shop in the nearest town to the same "Ancient ruin in magic forest" that he was hoping would bring in adventurers anyway, so he'll have a more sustainable income. (And Firefly can get her Pink Stuff.

very true! and god knows adventurers love it when they can restock before the dungeon trawl
I absolutely love the cover art!!
Then remove their limbs so they can't move
Now stomp em, stomp em like loot will pop out of them
Someone's gotten a bit full of themself just because he can raise a few undead to fight for him

Coffee was always something of a disappointment to the rest of the Cake clan.
