In The Beginning Part 1

Now then, we finally move on with Twilight's side of the story here, she's about ready to finally meet the soon to be keeper of the element of kindness. And there he was, flying gently towards the White Knight, Celestia and Luna. Wintergreen was a little curious to why White Knight would visit his forest, Wintergreen opens up the conversation with the White Knight's presence in Haven forest and for what reasons might he have here.

"Well, as you may know Wintergreen... I came here to how the spirit of kindness is doing and further more, I want you to join me in my quest in changing the world for the better."

When the Wise Wintergreen heard about White Knight's proposal, he was a little spooked at first, and he wonders why he wants him to join White Knight in this quest of his. I'd love to... Said Wintergreen in a gentle tone, and after he said; "he'd love to," he also told the White Knight that he would have to decline on his request to change the world. And only because he would have to decline is that he still has his forest to take good care of, and all of the inhabitants (animals) in the forest also need taking care of as well. This comes to show that Wintergreen is indeed the spirit of kindness, Twilight thought. And of course with that being said alone, White Knight understood why Wintergreen could join him now, but he does hope that Wintergreen would at least visit him so that they can get together like old times. And then, as Wintergreen was about to go back to tending the care of the animals and plant life, a tan colored bunny shows up all freaked out and such and informs Wintergreen that the Snake is picking a fight with the Squirrel. Celestia was a little surprised to actually hear the bunny talk, even Twilight was much more surprised to hear the talking bunny herself. Then the bunny hops up to White Knight and others;

"Ahh, good day. What a lovely day we're having is it not? I'm actually a little parched, and a tad hungry. By the way, I'm Fluffaluffages, Mr. Fluffaluffages. And might pray tell who you all might be? And White Knight, good to see you again, how've you been on this lovely day?"

Then White Knight starts introducing Fluffaluffages to his company; "Fluffaluffages, this little filly here is Celestia, isn't she wonderful? And this precious little baby Alicorn here is Luna. After the introductions, White Knight starts making baby faces at Luna just because he loves seeing her laughing with joy. Wintergreen starts getting Fluffaluffages back on the subject at hand, telling him what was going on with the squirrel and the snake, and Fluffaluffages repeatedly told Wintergreen that the snake and squirrel were fighting for any reason unknown. Then Wintergreen heads to the forest to check out the fight, leaving with White Knight, Celestia, Luna and Twilight Sparkle to follow Wintergreen just to see what Wintergreen is going to do to stop the fight. When the gang had finally arrived, Wintergreen steps in to stop the fight, and White Knight tells them;

"Stick around girls, you're about to see why Wintergreen is the head honcho of Haven forest"

So the girls are about to see what Wintergreen is all about here in Haven forest, as the snake and the squirrel are still bickering and fighting each other, Wintergreen steps in and starts to straighten things out between them. He starts asking them what the problem was, the squirrel started speaking to Wintergreen in squirrel-talk, after that the snake gave his side of the story. After hearing both sides of the story, Wintergreen decides to come up with a compromise for the both of them. He tells them to make up, shake hand and tail, work things out and put whatever caused them to get angry in the first place behind them.

"Now then, I want you two to apologize, put this little fight under the bridge and never bring it up again, okay? I don't want my friends to have to fight, violence never solved anything and it never will, we're all about expressing kindness and giving kindness, nothing more."

After having said that, the girls had seen why Wintergreen is in charge, he knows what the animals want and what they need, he knows how to sort out conflicts and put a stop to them before they get worse, and plus his heart is in the right direction. Wintergreen is all about Kindness and he just demonstrated his acts of kindness, even Twilight saw how kind Wintergreen the wise can be. But before he even became the Wise Wintergreen, he was a young Pegasus pony who's head was below the clouds. He never did fly up into the skies like all the other Pegasi, in fact he always flew in midair where the surface was close enough. And of course, he was teased for it, every Pegasi would make fun of him because of the fact that, he's afraid of heights. And instead of fighting them about his problem, he would actually agree to them that he's afraid of heights, he would never let the other Pegasi get the best of him, he knows his owns flaws and doesn't care because he is who he is and he's proud of it. Unlike the other Pegasi, Wintergreen was an orphan Pegasus, he never knew his family at all and was forced to live on his own and of course, he's done well for himself and plus he's made friends on the surface, but with animals and not other ponies. Wintergreen's cutie mark is a green leaf and like the leaf, he too is very gentle, soft, fragile and can glide smoothly while in midair. Not only that, he also takes care of the trees, the plants and the animal life that surrounds the whole forest.

After fixing up the mess between the squirrel and the snake, Wintergreens directs his attention to White Knight and his offer in joining him on the quest, he did say that he didn't want to be apart of what the White Knight does on his spare time or what he's doing at the moment. After all, Wintergreen has a lot to do in the forest and he can't just drop it that easily, the forest itself... is his home, in fact the only place he can call home. White Knight understands why Wintergreen can't just leave, in fact he even apologizes for asking him on assisting White Knight on a quest. After that, White Knight and Wintergreen the Wise went their separate ways for the time being and the whole group headed out to meet with another friend of White Knights.

Then, as they were leaving, Celestia tells White Knight; "You know, he seems certain that he's going to stay in the forest and not help you."

"Oh no, it's okay. Eventually, Wintergreen will change his mind, it's only matter a time. We've been friends for a long while now and he's bound to help me real soon. I believe in him, and whatever I'm doing, I can't do it without him." Replied the White Knight.

And of course, Twilight Sparkle already knows why he wants Wintergreen to join him on his "Quest", because without him and White Knight's other friends being present, the Elements of Harmony would be incomplete. So after the chat between the White Knight and Wintergreen, Twilight proceeded to follow White Knight and the others to find the next soon to be keeper of the elements.

After Wintergreen's visit at the Haven forest, White Knight, Celestia, Luna and Twilight Sparkle were all going up on top of the mountains to meet with the soon to be keeper of the element of Generosity: Madam Krystal. Madam Krystal lives on the highest part of the mountains and right on top of the mountains is a huge castle. Oh yes she had fortune like no other royal figure, she had subjects who worshipped her because of her gracious acts of generosity.

But of course before they could arrive, White Knight tells the girls about how Madam Krystal used to be a young peasant pony who lived in a small hut, with barely any food to provide for her and her family, she would try to do anything whatsoever to provide food, water and a better roof over their heads, she would give anything of value to get something that she and her family need in exchange, but it wasn't enough. And then, the royal guard came to her home and asked them to vacate their home, afterwards they had no home and Krystal was even more upset. She would always go to out to the open fields to be alone and cry, he had never been so sad in her whole life and she fears that there are no ponies out there who are even generous as she is. But then, the White Knight appeared to her and tried to comfort her, he also gave her a gift; a crystal rose to be exact. She was stoked to see an actual crystal rose right before her eyes, and that this white colt was actually giving it to her, she then accepted the rose, hugged the White Knight and thanked him for it. The White Knight also tells her that she has a special gift that can bring joy to other ponies, she had the ability to conjure up crystals and other gems from the ground and ever since then, she's been training herself to conjure up one crystal.

When she finally conjured up her first crystal, she thought that she can use the crystal to trade in for food and water, so she did and she got so much from that one crystal. And so, as she was going home, she notices that there were younger ponies that were starving, and even though the food was meant for her and her family, she couldn't help but to give some to those little ponies. She gave them two snacks each so that they can be filled up right away and of course she still had enough for her and her family.

"Afterwards, she had continued to practice her jewel conjuring spells so that she can give away in exchange for food, water and possibly a roof over their heads. And pretty soon, she became so popular with her special talent and she earned her cutie mark. And that cutie mark happens to be a heart-shaped crystal, and that's because she's that generous." Said the White Knight as he finished the story about Madam Krystal and plus, the story telling managed to kill time because they had already arrived to her castle.

The White Knight walks up to the front gate, he started knocking on the gate hoping for Krystal to answer, and just as the girls were headed towards the gate, the gates had finally opened and they all headed inside. White Knight was a little excited to see how Madam Krystal turned out to be after his last visit with her, then she had finally arrived and when she saw White Knight, she got incredibly excited to see his face and ran over to him to give him a hug. As she was running, she yelled out the White Knight's name and bam, there came the hug. Afterwards she gave a nervous laugh and stepped away from and resumed to her lady-like behavior.

"Oh, goodness gracious. White Knight, you're actually here, in my castle. What brings you here and who are these two lovely fillies with you?"

"These two lovely fillies happen to be Celestia and Luna." replied the White Knight.

After the introductions, White Knight and Madam Krystal started to catch up on old times, Twilight was amazed to see this castle, it's much more decorative than the palace in the stars, but other than that... Krystal has a really good taste in castle designs. As WK and Krystal were talking about their previous encounters, Celestia starts to fly up to get on top of White Knight's back and hold on to him. As a little filly, she tends to cling onto the only pony she likes and at the same time, she's keeping an eye on Krystal. Even though they're the best of friends, young Celestia feels that Krystal might actually like "like" White Knight, causing her to be jealous and protective of him because he's the only friend that she has. But of course, Celestia has nothing to worry about really, Krystal and WK will always be friends and nothing more. But there is the fact that White Knight has been seeing an Earth Pony and no one, not even the girls know about this mysterious mare that White Knight is seeing, but that's another story.

"So, what brings you here in my castle, White Knight?" Says Madam Krystal.

Then the White Knight replies to her the same thing that he told Wintergreen; "Krystal, I was wondering that if you would be interested in joining me in a quest, or well in a little something that I'm putting up together and trust me, I can't do this without you."

After hearing the White Knight's proposal, Madam Krystal says yes and after she said yes, the White Knight says to her that he'll be coming back for her soon and that he has to get the others to say yes to his proposal. Madam Krystal is aware that she isn't the only one that the White Knight is going to with this proposal of his and that the White Knight tends to bring the rest of her old friends together for something really big. After that, White Knight was excited to hear her say yes and so he and the girls had already left the castle to move on to the next soon to be keeper of the elements.
