Oh my Celestia it's the tree of Harmony sigh it's kind of sad to see it being drained like that ever since ponies from different tribes and other creatures are separate from each other but still I wonder what really happened that broke the straw
Oh wow this was both good and very sad at the same time so it looks like Sunny's message turn the lantern did reach to where izzy live and speaking of her her lifestyle is kind of sad to be honest with you as much as she is very positive and very energetic other ponies think of her as a weird one and an outcast not even the one that is a hangout doesn't want to be with her which that hurt but in the outskirt in the mountains of zephyr Heights it looks like Zipp is a very sneaky girl knows how to get away from the royalty and she even found a station where none Pegasus can visit like Earth ponies and unicorns but it was abanded she even took advantage of the Wind so she can feel how to fly and she really don't want to live in a lie and it looks like the tree of Harmony is still trying to stay alive as best as she could and basically sending the message that Sunny made and hopefully this will be enough but little did she know it will and it took a very long time this was a very interesting story keep up the good work
I like it when people explore how much Izzy stands out from the other unicorns. I wish they'd expanded a little more on that in the movie.
Aw. They'll be okay.

Is it? Or is it Fluttershy?
11024720
I was hoping someone would notice I left that possibility open...
11024721
If it's Fluttershy, then that means G5 is a sequel to Fallout Equestria all along!
11024731
That's...
...
Eh. Sounds legit.
11024731
Hmm... and here I thought Fluttershy wanting to be a tree was a thing in and of itself. See, for example:
This story is both very well written and has a great concept. Nice work!
11024743
Well every remember the health information she almost became a tree when she got sick
11024731
but fluttershy stoped being a tree at the end of foe
Hmm. Now I wonder how things would have turned out if Zipp got the letter instead.
What's a 'colony' unicorn?

In some ways easier, others harder. For example, they'd still have gone straight to Zephyr Heights, but then they'd have had to figure out they needed to go to Bridlewood and navigate unicorn society to get to the crystal. Plus, in the early "unicorn attack!" part of the movie, the unicorn traps in Maretime Bay are a simpler visual gag to pull off. So one can see why the movie went the route that it did.
Regarding 'colony' ponies, it's implied though not stated in the story that as pony society fractured and/or parts of Equestria began slipping beyond the Rim so to speak, the pony tribes would have begun consolidating into their current cities. In the case of the unicorns, Izzy's difference from the other unicorns suggests that for a time there might have been a "refugee" or "colony" outpost from Canterlot, etc. that ultimately integrated with the main Forest community, while still retaining some distinct differences (brighter outlook, skepticism about superstitions like the jinxies, etc.) It's a way of explaining how her entire world-view seems to be distinctly different from the other unicorns we meet. (Though Alphabittle is an interesting case: my assumption in the story is that he's not actually superstitious, but is forced to "fake it" in order to maintain his dominance in the Forest unicorn community.)
What a brilliant characterisation of all three characters. You add a lot of pathos and depth to all of them, especially Zipp. That mental journey of wanting to fly, to teach others how to fly again, puts her in exactly the right headspace to help Sunny and Izzy when they arrive.
Izzy's nana was a particularly great idea, as was her friendship with Prench Toast (love his name by the way). You added just enough pain to her childhood to make her relentless optimism a beautiful thing.
The tree is also a great addition. Looks like Fluttershy got her wish Though actually, I have seen a tweet from one of the writers saying that's the remnants of the Tree of Harmony, so that could also be an explanation.

Thanks much! I actually approached this story with the assumption that that it was the Tree of Harmony, but realized it could also be an arborealized Fluttershy if anyone wanted to read it that way, and was careful to leave that as an option.
My goal with this one was to explore characterization and potential backstory for the "three amigos" (Sunny, Izzy, and Zipp), so it's wonderful to hear it worked so well for you. Thanks again!
Oh, this was a delight. Thank you.
I love this characterization of Izzy and Zipp, it all makes perfect sense with the world we've been given. This is a great story
And best line of the story goes toooooo...
Oooof...
Wow...
You know, I keep track of some writers, just in case they put something new into the world...
This...was amazing! A new way to look at the new ponies...
Bravo...!!!
I still don’t really like the idea that purple tree is somehow the treehouse of harmony. The tree was in the middle of the forest not a big open field. Plus it was crystal not wood. So…
Well written story
pipp drowning in her own ego makes lots of sense with her playing along with her mom's lies
izzy failing to justify her lonely life is a really sad backstory and i kinda love it
