Introduction:

A painting of an Alicorn Filly was shown as sounds of insects buzzing and birds chirping were heard.

"This is superb, simply sublime. And more importantly… It is time," a female Eastern African voice said as a paintbrush was seen painting a small crown on top of the filly's head…


Meanwhile, flying over the Land Of Equestria, where the sun is rising in the sky and on the horizon lies a big and magnificent castle, is a pale, light grayish cerise Alicorn mare with a moderate violet mane and tail with moderate rose and pale gold streaks, and on her flanks is a crystal-shaped heart cutie mark. One look at her and you could see she was filled with the joy of life.

The Alicorn was flying in the air until she began flying down a river which led her to a forest grove of trees. The Alicorn flew over the forests which leads to a different kind of forest, known by others as the Everfree Forest.

Exiting the Everfree Forest, the Alicorn flies down and enters an area filled with bones from dead Dragons. She flies down some rib cages before approaching the main Dragon Skull with huge tusks and enters it from the mouth. Getting through it with expert ease.

Next, she flies out of some thorns and flies towards what appears to be a lone tower in the middle of a city before flying around it. Inside the tower, there was a canvas where the painting of the Alicorn filly is seen.

That's when we can finally see where the Alicorn mare is going.

Ahead of her, where a herd of Earth Ponies was walking along, lies a big and magnificent castle with walls and towers white as snow, its tower tops and roofs were a royal purple with their rims and details gold and in front of its gates, two regal Alicorn statues stood in front of it.

The Alicorn flies towards the castle and then swoops in, preparing herself to land on the castle's balcony. When she finally landed, the Alicorn saw that she has some company behind her.

"Oh, hello there. Very nice to see some visitors around here…," The Alicorn said nonchalantly to the viewers before she realized who she was talking to and gasped, "Visitors?! Why didn't anypony inform me?! I mean, as a member of the Royal Family, I should've been the first to know. I'm completely unprepared for this. Well, I guess I'll just have to improvise…."

The Alicorn cleared her throat and spread her wings, "Behold, I, Cadance, give you the wondrous realm of our kingdom…Equestria!" Cadance announced as she showed the viewers the wonderful realm of her home.

Down below her, is the realm of Equestria with different locations. Walking by these locations are herds of Ponies and Kirins, Yaks and Bisons, and Changelings and Dragons. Flying above them in the air, Hippogriffs, Griffons, Pegasi, and even flying Dragons were flapping their wings flying in the sky and clouds of Equestria.

"Ah, yes. The highlight of your visit awaits at the City Of Harmony. This is where I will be most honored to share my knowledge of Equestria and many of its subjects with you," Cadance explained, pointing her hoof to a colorful city to her left, which is the City Of Harmony.

"Next, you could stop by the Forest where a cowgirl-speaking Earth Pony, a fast rainbow-maned Pegasus, a fancy Unicorn, a shy but kind Pegasus, and a poofy-maned Earth Pony are anxiously waiting to play games with you," Cadance said, pointing to a Forest area in the middle of the background.

"But for those who like painful and menacing places, there's only one spot in Equestria to visit…even if it is against an Alicorn's better judgment…The Dragon Graveyard. There are also a few royal artifacts you might find interesting," Cadance announced, pointing to her right where next to the Forest, the land is filled with bones from dead Dragons known as the Dragon Graveyard.

"Now if a musical and mystical peek at things are more to your liking, you can go and see Zecora, the Unicorn Shaman and Wizard, at her Tower Of Life," Cadance said, pointing to the last location between the City Of Harmony and The Forest, where the home of Zecora is.

"So, whenever you folks are ready, I will be most honored to escort you," Cadance said, giving her last instruction to the viewers.

And all the creatures of Equestria kept walking and flying by the locations. From Ponies and Kirins to Yaks and Bisons, Yaks and Bisons to Changelings and Dragons, and Changelings and Dragons to Griffons, Hippogriffs, and Pegasi…
