Pelipper mail! A nightmare.

You are laying in bed, in your cottage in Ponyville. You feel rested, but the sun has not yet been raised. Is it late? It doesn't matter, your animals still need you regardless, so you get out of bed and go downstairs. Through the window you see the horizon brighten, and then the sun stumbles up, drunkenly, zigzagging across the sky in leaps and jerks, eventually coming to rest near where it would be expected for the day.

You tend to the family of mice in your walls, check up on the bird with one wing in a sling, make Angel his elaborate breakfast, and then step outside and head towards town. Twilight will know what that was.

You hear the beating of wings overhead and look up, expecting Rainbow Dash flying down for a visit. Instead, a purple streak zips through the sky too fast to comprehend, smashing through a small tree and then disappearing around the corner of a house. You follow, and see Twilight trot out of the alleyway, her mane disheveled. You ask her what's going on, and she says nothing unusual, she didn't see what you saw. That wasn't her, she can't possibly fly that fast. Maybe Princess Celestia has a hangover, she jokes, but her smile is fake.

Twilight offers to pick up the fallen treetop. Just to carry it a dozen steps and drop it at the edge of the woods, with unicorn telekinesis. Pinkish magic wraps around the trunk, and it instantly, violently combusts. Fragments and embers spray out in the direction of the forest, but disappear into nothing but ash before even reaching the ground. You ask Twilight what went wrong, and she says nothing. She just decided to clean up more thoroughly, that's all.

She's hiding something from you. The Twilight standing next to you is wrong somehow, and she won't acknowledge it. She trots off with a word about running her morning errands, and you hurry to follow, but cannot think of the words you want to say. She barely even looks at you. What is she so worried about? Why does she keep glancing out toward Canterlot as if to make sure it's still there?

You trip, and everything goes black as your head spins with sudden vertigo. When you open your eyes, you are floating in the air inside a bubble, looking out at a barren landscape of pure devastation. You turn your head, and just for an instant you see something -- an orb of rainbow fire, suspended between two horns -- and then everything is black again, and spinning, and the wind rushes past in all directions as you tumble blindly into the unknown.

Oh... oh Celestia, I...

It's just a dream. It has to be, but... it felt so real, more like remembering than dreaming. But--

Oh, hello there! You're an interesting looking bird. Sorry if I disturbed you, I just -- oh. I guess they didn't want to stick around. Goodbye, then.

I need to catch up to Twilight, and her new research group in this world. She's researching Fallers, she'll know what's going on and how to help.

...No, brain, it's fine. There's nothing wrong with Twilight, she's my friend and she's fallen into the same weird world that I have. She's my friend. I trust her. Just because I had a dream about her acting weird, that doesn't mean anything is wrong. I'm just... nervous, I guess.

That's all. Just nervous because there are new people to meet. But they're Twilight's friends, so I'm sure we'll get along just fine. Deep breaths, Fluttershy. I can do this.
