Twilight the Zebra, along with her adopted Changeling brother, Spike, are attempting to find their place in a vastly multicultural Equestria. Having been heard of a open place to settle in a town called ‘Ponyville’ from their friend, Zecora, the two head out for the place in hopes that they’ll be accepted...

Very interesting. I'm eager for the next chapter.

Thanks, I knew you were one of the people that wanted more of an insight into this world, and I’ve gotten a lot of ideas for it since since writing that original story.

It took me until they got into the library to realize that in almost every instance of Twilight speaking two sentences in succession, they rhyme. Nice job, even if some of the attempts didn't work as well.

Curious where this goes.

That’s intentional.
Twilight’s rhyming is due to her nature as a Zebra, but no-one said she to be that good at it.

Might want to put the Them's Fightin Herds tag.

I suppose that’s fair.
I’m honestly not too sure if I should be including stuff like that, as Tianhuo (and Goats like Lyra here) aren’t too important to the overarching ideas of this story and won’t be in it for that long.

That being said, I am going to include her for likely the entirety of next chapter, and may have other TFH species implemented, like Reindeers and Classical Unicorns, in the future, so I’ll add it for the time being.

Interesting story. Added to read list. Looking forward to the next update. :twilightsmile:

Does this story have any fighting in it?

I’m not exactly sure why you’re asking, but there is only one fight presently, and it’s in chapter 3.

You've outdone yourself! Most writers have trouble even getting Zecora to rhyme, but you did Twilight! And it's not the same thing; Twilight, even Zebra Twilight, has a different personality than Zecora, so the content and context of their rhymes are different, but you still pulled it off. I was enthralled visualizing Twilight as she rhymed! Almost every rhyming line in this chapter was superb! Kudos to you on your hard work!

Thank you!
I never really understood how difficult it would be to do rhyming like that, but after actually writing some stuff with Zecora in previous stories, and especially with this one now, I know it can take several minutes to figure out just one line.
Obviously, keeping Twilight as rather inexperienced on the concept gives me some leeway, but it’s still very difficult, so I definitely appreciate you commenting how much you enjoy it.

Just got caught up. Great updates. :twilightsmile:
