Fluttershy: (I WILL introduce myself... I WILL say hello... I WON'T be shy...)
Fluttershy: *sighing* ... Our Southern Equestrian neighbors have finally arrived in Ponyville for the cultural-exchange Springtime Festival, but... b-but... there are so MANY of them...!
Fluttershy: Still... I suppose their traditional glowpaz eggs ARE really, really pretty... and the legend behind them sure is interesting. I-I think I remember Pinkie Pie mentioning it to me...?
Fluttershy: It was about... hmm... Oh! The "rebirth" of Southern Equestria! Yes, um, somepony freed some-prince from some-big-scary-mean-monster a long, long time ago...

"Picnics! Springtime! Lots of new friends! This Springtime Festival sure is a blast... and I'm sorta surprised that Fluttershy's getting in on it!" |
Somnambula: Greetings! I couldn't help but notice you munching very anxiously on that daisy and carob sandwich... Do you mind if I ask you something?
Fluttershy: EEP--! *COUGH* *HACK* J-Just as soon as I clean the petals out of my windpipe...!
Somnambula: You see, I could use a bit of help saving my Prince Hisan and my fellow countryponies from a giant, foul-tempered Sphinx. Do you think you'd be able to assist me?
Fluttershy: *gulp* Ex-... Excuse me...?
Somnambula: Oh, sorry; that was rude of me. Please -- call me Somnambula! I recently found myself in this strange place... which has been rather disconcerting
Somnambula: But even WORSE is that Sphinx came along with me and the Prince! I don't want to involve innocent bystanders in my homeland's problems, so I'm trying to get her to leave.
Fluttershy: Um, "S-Somnambula"? Like where all these Southern Equestrians came from--?

Fluttershy: Oh... About that... I really... reeeeally don't think I'm, um, cut out for this kind of thing, so--
