The Perilous Quest to Save Vinyl From Certain Demise

Might as well start big, right? Vinyl probably would have shared the sentiment.

Looking up at the long journey you have ahead of you, you take your first steps along a twisting, steep road that leads up the side of the mountain. Every few steps you take brings you higher above the village behind you, the sparse foliage below thinning out, until left with just the bare cliffs made of rock.

As the horizon around you grows wider and wider, you're able to make out silhouettes of distant places across Equestria from the new height. You swear you can see Ponyville from here, though it is merely a speck against the rest of the landscape. And you've barely started your climb! The view's only going to get better from here.

Striding powerfully onwards, you can't help but imagine how epic this moment would be with a panning birds-eye view, accompanied by an epic soundtrack's powerful brass fanfare.

The pathway up the mountainside divides into two parts before you now, leaving you to decide how you want to approach the summit.

The western approach. A steep, craggy area known for it's dangerous rockslides and deep crevices.

The eastern approach, a steadier, flatter route, though it is inhabited by strange and wild creatures.
