Shimmering Sea discovers she was adopted as a foal, but now is not sure where to start in her search for her birth family. She decides to seek the help of Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship for advice but instead, she gets thrust into a magical map adventure in which everyone learns something new.

I only categorized as Teen because of sensitive topics (ie. adoption, abandonment issues, and a slight reference to sex on a beach).

There will be merponies in this story! And the AU is only in reference to who the father is!

Check back frequently because I'm always adding more stuff to already existing chapters!
Please note: I started writing this story before Season 5 Episode 23 came out.
