-
1.
As the morning sun looms over the mountains
-
2.
And the howling wind echoes throughout the land.
-
3.
A young pony now descends from the summit
-
4.
To start on a journey that few can withstand.
-
5.
-
6.
From her lonely summit home atop the peaks
-
7.
To the frosted forests of trees evergreen
-
8.
Alpine Glow travels in search of adventure
-
9.
In search of places she has yet to have seen.
-
10.
-
11.
In her heart lay the feeling of wanderlust
-
12.
A desire to explore the great unknown.
-
13.
Though most all can be seen from the mountain peak
-
14.
There is one place hidden, a forbidden zone.
-
15.
-
16.
She remembers the tales her kin used to tell
-
17.
Of a lost realm far beyond normal reaches.
-
18.
Through the hail and the ice she goes heading north
-
19.
In hopes of finding the fabled snow beaches.
-
20.
-
21.
There is said to be an abundance of fish,
-
22.
And strange avian creatures who like to play,
-
23.
As well as another one known as a seal
-
24.
If all these await then she shouldn't delay!
-
25.
-
26.
Alpine Glow is strong, she's handled worse before
-
27.
Even this fierce blizzard is no match for her,
-
28.
Since she's always got on her favorite poncho
-
29.
Passed down now for ages, it beats any fur!
-
30.
-
31.
And finally through the harshest of blizzards
-
32.
Alpine Glow arrives to a sight for sore eyes
-
33.
The legends, they were true, the beach is right there!
-
34.
Overcome with joy, the poor mare nearly cries!
-
35.
-
36.
There really are puffins and even seals too
-
37.
And look at the fish jumping out of the sea!
-
38.
But perhaps what is most surprising of all
-
39.
Is a pony awaiting, just who is she?
-
40.
-
41.
An ethereal glow radiates from her
-
42.
Something suggests an otherworldly presence.
-
43.
She approaches a nearly speechless Alpine
-
44.
And imparts her a gift, one of strange essence.
-
45.
-
46.
A mystical looking relic, quite unique
-
47.
With a curious mark never seen before.
-
48.
"You have come far and have earned this, now go forth."
-
49.
And with her task done, she vanished from the shore.
-
50.
-
51.
Young Alpine Glow was still very unaware
-
52.
Of what truly she had been entrusted with.
-
53.
What she held in her hoof was no mere trinket
-
54.
But a key once thought to have been just a myth.
