Rest now, child, for the night is here
Rest now, please, my sweet, my dear
Rest your eyes, until they see then sun
For when the sun rises, your end will come
LAST TIME ON PONE GRUMPS
Venia was a good waifu
Prima was asked to meet the assistant councilor
Sunrise had mysteriously vanished
The gang was on their way to tell the king about explosive mold in the basement

The book will be fine. Just put some string through the back and… whew. That should hold it.
"Explosive mold is a curious thing. From what we could gather, it is a hybrid of the Black Spice plant from the east, and Arctic Mold, a common and very invasive plant from these parts. Given conditions where it is chilly and moist enough, but not frozen, the mold could bloom, resulting in similar explosive powder harvested from Black Spice."

And with that, Pumpkin Smile, rogue, lover, friend, charmer, was gone. Buried under a collapsing room, tons of wood and stone crushing his young body.
The soldiers rush to dig him out, but it is too late.
With heads hanging low, two of them take the body to the doctor for a final check.

You focus your energy but cant seem to manifest enough. Instead you leap onto the pile of moss and teleport, sending yourself and it tumbling into the air. After a moment you crash down into the yard, snapping a few ribs and getting some bad bruising. But at least you got out.

One way is to present it as a place of beauty open for Equestrians to visit, if enough Equestrians come here, Equestria can do nothing lest they risk their citizens. Or we can trick the world into thinking highly of us, through performing deeds and speaking of them in 'just' the right way.

Doing what is 'good' could require you to do some very bad things. You have to be sure that the end justifies the means.
Even if that one called dear mother a whore for doing what shw had to… stealing away her friend was not an act of vengeance, and even so it would be too much. I should check on her, as a last favour to her… and myself.

It takes a bit of shoving and strapping but you do manage to fit yourself into a female uniform.

Who knew you had such a feminine build when wearing something that complements it.
