>Stay in town

You decide to live in town.

You've never worked on a farm before, but you get the hang of it quickly. It's hard work, but you have good company, and that's more than enough to keep you going.

Eventually you and Emily grow closer, and become a couple.

You're happy with her.

But as the months pass, more and more people in town start to leave.

Just like Emily told you, it's tough to keep the kids around. A few of them emigrate, and after that their parents follow.

More people do as well, out of frustration, or fear, or whatever other reason.

There's only 15 people left in town now. But you and Emily are still happy together.

One day, after work, you and her are lounging under a tree together enjoying the breeze. She says something to you that you weren't expecting.

"I'm thinking about going."

Going where?

"To Equestria. I think it's time."

You're surprised, why would she want to leave?

"My mother and my brother have got to be there. All my old friends too. I miss them. Also, there's not many people left in town. We can't keep this up forever, you know that."

You do know that. Emily leans up and looks you in the eyes.

"Come with me."

You're not sure if you want to.

"Please... I love you."

Could you do it? For love?
