Page 1030 — Pink Horizons

And thus ends my version of The Best Night Ever. Fun fact: This took 100 updates, tying for longest arc with the Parts 1 and 2 of the pilot!

So what's next, indeed? A no-brainer there, but it was inevitable for me. Waaaaay back when I started and had established that I wasn't burning out anytime soon, I was compelled to promise (to others and myself) that I'd at least make it to one particular character before quitting…

Five or six years later, it's time for The Return of Harmony.

Transcript:

DM: Let's see then, rewards… On top of the generous bounty for capturing Elusive… You've earned enough experience to blaze through to Level 10. In fact, you're so close to 11 that I'm tempted to just… You know what, why not? Welcome to paragon tier, everypony.
Rainbow Dash: Yeaaaaaaaa– wait, only two levels? We got, like, five when we took down Nightmare Moon! Wasn't Elusive another arc boss?
DM: For Nightmare Moon, I basicallly gave you an entire arc's worth of XP because you nipped it all in the bud. You've been dealing with the Guild and the Gala for many sessions, so the XP's been spread out. But now it's over. I'm ready to take a break from thieves and high society.
Twilight Sparkle: Yeah, not exactly what I expected to be using my Wizard talents on.
Applejack: Nah, that's par for the course. We've been in "heroic" tier, where the threats are more local and mundane.
Rarity: Now we'll take on more dire threats and become renowned adventurers for it!
Fluttershy: So what's next for us?
Rainbow Dash: Picking our Paragon Paths! Awwwwwwww yeah!!
Fluttershy: …I meant what will we face next? What will the next "arc" be?
Rainbow Dash: Oh, right. Man, how are you gonna plan out a plot without us derailing it?
DM: I dunno, I think I managed to improvise my way through this one. I had to roll with a lot of punches to get you all to the Grand Galloping Gala so you could face Elusive. I have some confidence in my abilities now. But you do raise a point. This calls for a stepping up of my game. And by now, you probably know a lot of my tricks. It may be time to bring in some… outside help.
Applejack: Uh, girls? The DM's smiling that smile again.
