Marble Dust is a sculptor looking for her time to make it big, but of course she must get up enough money to pay for materials; making art isn't exactly cheap. One evening as she's leaving her job at a later hour than usual, she ventures out of town and trails toward her house which was built in the Esh Woodlands and in the darkness she looses her path. The poor Earth Pony gets into a panic when she hears the roaring of a nearby mountain lion, and in her terror she blindly ran without watching where she was going and fell into a hole. When she awakens from going out cold, she sees that there is no way to get out besides the tunnel that the bottom of the pit leads to. What exactly will she find on the other end?
