> Sunny Starscout was nervous and scared…Mostly excited though as she nervously stood in the dark forest, deeply hidden from the bright world of Equestria. It has taken her years to finally convince her friend, death, Princess Celestia, the title she hated so much, to finally reenter the mortal realm for the first time since…well, since when?

> Celestia, Sunny mentally corrected herself, as the older Alicorn was sensitive in the subject of her former life and title, Death never exactly spoke about her life. She spoke small words that could be interpreted each and every way. Even when Sunny found out her true identity through months of research into the ancient Equestria, Death kept her mouth shut on what even caused the world to be the way it was. What caused Celestia herself to leave the world, allowing herself and all the heroes of her time to be completely forgotten?

> Sunny had questions, she was desperate for answers. But one step at a time as Hitch would say. So she gave a small, excited smile as the large tree she was instructed to find, opened up. White eyes blinked from another realm, one, two, three, many pairs of white glowing eyes of souls long gone blinked and disappeared before the Alicorn, formerly known for being as bright as the sun, stepped into the mortal realm slowly, uncertain. Uneasy. Dulled.
