Today's prompt: Draw a pony exploring a place lost to legend / Draw a pony off the beaten path.

Cookie and Syntax's searches for lost treasures take them to far-off, abandoned, or even unexpected places. They've explored caves, ruins, and ancient buildings. This mansion's no different, as the draw of an ancient cookbook that was collaboratively written by legendary chefs of Equestria's past is too strong to resist, but Cookie's going the extra mile by declaring she's not going to be driven away by cliched antics you'd find in a Scooby-Doo adventure, even if Syntax is the only one there to hear it, lol

As a side note, backgrounds are definitely not my strong point, but I did the best I could with this one, as I at least wanted to have the mansion itself as an establishing shot for this comic.
