Love transcends the wall.

from intensive studies of the wall, I have gathered enough information from my tomes and grimoires that i may try to surpass it...

I wont lie.

I'm shivering.

but i have a sensation that this could be one of the greatest discoveries in equestrian history, i dont want to destroy it's essence.

the curtains fluttered gently against the window, it was slightly ajar and a cool breeze was blowing in. the wind wafted over a bed and ruffled the mane of a worn out pink pony.  Cheerilee opened her eyes and yawned, it had been a long night. just the other day was the mid-year test, and she was up most of the night marking each little filly and colt's papers. she made a sound that was something between a sigh and a laugh, they thought they had it hard having to sit an hour's worth of exams, when she had to spend the same amount of time marking each paper alone.

Cheerilee dragged herself out of her bed and trotted down her stairs rather languidly, it was going to be another long boring day. she set some water to boil, and went out to her garden in order to pick some flowers for a quick breakfast. she trotted back in with a few flowers for a sandwich, picked up her kettle and poured the hot water into a filter with coffee in, and sat down to read the ponyville times. just as she sat down a large thud emanated from just outside of her house, the cup that she had set on the side wobbled and fell on the floor, it smashed into several pieces. cheerilee gasped "I only just bought that cup!". she went outside to see what had happened, it really was a vivid sight.

that was the moment everything changed.
