Ponyville... Oh, how I missed its glory. It was months ago since I last set my hooves onto the floor of Twilight's Crystal Castle. I must admit, it felt strange. Strange to feel the cold crystal floor under my hooves again. But perhaps I should explain why I'm wandering here again.
It's basically pretty simple but yet so hard to explain...

It started out as a pretty ordinary day at Camp Everfree. But I soon realized something different about Gloriosa. She acted quite strange and unsure in my presence. I was worried, I must admit. But every time I asked her, what may be wrong, she answered with "No, everything's fine." and put on a fake smile.

The day passed and it was in the afternoon as Gloriosa walked past me with another Camper behind her. I looked at them both confused. I could hear them talking about someone lying and losing trust. "Hello" I said with a friendly smile at Gloriosa. Little did I know what may happen next...

"Oh? Hello..." Gloriosa started as she turned towards me. I saw in her expression that something was very wrong. "So, how was it, Lucky?" She asked with a little disgust and anger in her voice as well as her expression. At this point, I was already staring at them with utter confusion. "I beg your pardon?" I answered, obviously confused and irritated. I tilted my head a bit as she didn't answer me, instead, the other camper stepped forward. "Don't lie to her! You know very well what she meant!" She said in a slightly threatening voice. "Someone, who wants to stay anonymous, told me 'something" Gloriosa added as her expression got angrier but slightly sad as well. It hit me like a bullet. I immediately knew what she meant and I couldn't believe, what I just heard. "W-wha-?..." I was so shocked, that I wasn't able to bring out one word.

"I would never cheat on you! And I didn't! Why should I even think about that?!" I said in a panic as my hands started to tremble. But the answer I hoped for was far away from reaching me. "I.. don't know... but so many others told me that you were completely different behind my back... and now this?... I just lost the trust to you... this happened to me too many times now..." Gloriosa answered as she started to tear up. My jaw dropped open in disbelief. "Gloriosa... Hunny... Please, that's not true!" I replied as my voice trembled now. "No... I can't go through this again... It's over, Lucky... Goodbye..."

Those are the last words I heard from her... I stared after her and the other camper for a while before dropping to the ground... I was mentally broken... Who would've said something like that?!... What have I done wrong?... So many thoughts flashed through my head as I kneeled there, trying to handle what just happened. Alone once more... With nothing to lose, I jumped up, pulled my wedding ring off my finger and threw it away. I stomped into Gloriosa's Camp Hut to get all my stuff and stuffing it into my backpack. I was so frustrated and filled with anger that I ripped out my entire keychain of the camp's doors and threw it onto Gloriosa's bed before sprinting out and shortly stopping under the entrance gate of Camp Everfree. "Goodbye indeed... forever..." I mumbled to myself as I pinned a short note at one of the wooden pillars before continuing my way into the city.

I sighed deeply as I stood in front of the statue, which holds the passage between Equestria and this world. I stepped through it without thinking about it twice...
