A wave of confusion took hold in Bloom's mind, while she was surrounded by darkness. She could not tell where she was or how she was, she just wanted it to end soon. She had given up everything that was important in her life and she just wanted to get to her new destination as soon as possible. Then it was over and she finally took fresh air.

She could feel the grass beneath her, the wind blowing in her face and hear the birds chirping. Then she opened her eyes and looked around. She was in a kind of forest, near a lake.

"Ouch, my head!" Bloom complained. "But, where am I? For where did Lord of Order send me?"

Bloom looked to her hand. But what hand? She hadn't a hand. She had a hoove. Seeing that, she hastened to look at herself and saw that her hands and feet had become in hooves and saw that she had a pony tail.

"Oh no! No, no, no, no!"

She hurried to go to the lake and looked at her reflection. She could not believe what she was seeing. She had become into a pony. Her face now had a muzzle and a horn appeared on his forehead. She was a unicorn. Her coat was very soft blue, his mane was a deep red like her human hair and her eyes were the same with their dark cyne color. She also noticed that she had on her flank the image of a heart made ​​of fire. Watching it, Bloom noticed a strange sensation, as if that image represented her entire being.

"What happen to me?" she asked.

"Don't you like your new visage?" a familiar voice asked. "Personally, I think it's lovely."

Bloom's reflexion shone and it was replaced by Lord of Order's face.

"Hello, my dear" he greeted in a tone of who was enjoying the situation.

"You?!" Bloom yelled. "What did you do with me?!"

"Don't be melodramatic, Bloom" the Lord of Order said. "It don't look good on you. You're not so bad in that form."

"You didn't answer me" Bloom said.

"I didn't do anything. Remember, you're now in a new reality, so your body just only adapted to the new environment. You know, this world is inhabited by ponies and other creatures.

Bloom became disconcerted when she hearded that. The ideia of a world where ponies lived like normal persons was absurd, but she was now a pony, so she have to believe.

"And you are so pretty. Look at you. Your coat, your mane... And look to your Cutie Mark! It sit down so good on you.

"My what?" Bloom asked, without knowing what he was talking about.

"That fire heart of yours" the Lord of Order answered, motioning to the image on Bloom's flank. "It appear on everypony's flank when they discover their true talent. In your case, I think is in healing magic, like in our old dimension. But, of corse, you haven't the same power you had, because the unicorns' magic here is not so powerful. They have just some magic according to their special talents.

"Why are you tell me this?" Bloom asked.

"Because you are new here" the Lord answered. "And, honestly, I don't want you walking around like a newborn foal."

And he laugh from what he said. But Bloom made a serious face.

"Oh, my dear, don't do that face" the Lord asked. "Your sacrifice was valuable. The big threat you and your friends were facing was neutralized and everyone is happy and contented. Well, your friends and family not so much, but they'll survived. And I'm telling the truth. I can't lie. It's a privilege that I don't have because of my position.

Bloom tried not to thing how their family and Sky felt when they got to know what she did. Looking that face of her, the Lord of Order said:

"Look, Bloom... Can I call you Bloom, right? You aren't a princess anymore, after all. Look, Bloom, you made your choise. I don't force you. So, I thing you must now accept the consequences of your choices, as a good filly you are.

Bloom hated to admit it, but he was absolutely right. It was she who chose to leave her world and come to this new and strange reality. Now, she must bear the consequences of that choice. Bloom now had to live there. That was her new home and she had to learn everything she can to pass through as a pony.

"What do I have to know about this world?" Bloom asked.

"That's my girl" answered the Lord. "Not in the literal sense of the word, of course."

So, he started tell her all about that world. Apparently, that land was called Equestria and was inhabited by ponies and other equine creatures and other fantastic creatures. He said that world was much like Earth (including existing some places witch are similar to Earth's places with similar names), except that there were no humans, but ponies. Bloom learned that there were three types of ponies: earth ponies, unicorns and pegasi. She learned that unicorns like her was the only ones endowed with magic, but the majority used it only for daily tasks and their special talents, and the pegasi were the only ones able to fly, to walk in the clouds and responsible for the weather.

She also learned that there was also another kind of very rare pony called alicorn, which was a winged unicorn, and was the kind of pony most powerful of all. There were only four alicorns and both were mares and princesses. There was one called Celestia who was very tall with white coat and a flowing mane with a beautiful mix of colors: light cerulean, light turquoise, very light cobalt blue and pale heliotrope. Supposedly, she was the one who made ​​the sun rise with her magic and one of the rulers of Equestria. She had also a younger sister, also an alicorn. Her name was Luna and had a dark sapphire blue coat and a moderate cobalt blue mane which fluttered like her sister's. She was the other ruler of Equestria, raising the moon. There was also Cadance who had a pale, light grayish cerise coat and a dark violet mane with moderate rose and pale gold streaks. She lived in a kingdom made ​​of crystal called Crystal Empire with her husband, Shining Armor, and the two ruled it together. Finally, there was Twilight, the newest and youngest of the four alicorn princesses. Originally an unicorn, she became an alicorn after creating new magic. She had a pale, light grayish mulberry coat and a moderate sapphire blue mane with moderate violet and brilliant rose streaks. She was also Shining Armor's younger sister, so Cadance's sister-in-law, and lived in a village named Ponyville.

The Lord also taught her how to use her magic, concentrating on what she wanted to do, while concentrating the magic on the horn. After a few attempts, she managed to charge her horn which glowed with a pinkish aura and with a few more attempts, she managed to levitate objects at her will. However, if she wanted to use her talent for healing magic, she would have to wait for someone to get hurt. Bloom was afraid that she could not do when it was time, but the Lord of Order reassured her, saying she would know what to do when the time was right.

"I think you're ready" the Lord said.

"Do you think so?" Bkoom asked.

"Sure! You know now the basic and you can use de standard magic. You learn the rest as you live your new life."

"Yeah, but the problem is I don't know where I will stay" Bloom said.

"No problem" the Lord answer. "Ponyville is not far from here. You are able to find somewhere to sleep there. It's a place of good ponies."

"If you say so... Thanks for all, Lord of Order. Despite everything, you were a great help. Without you, I would walk through this new world without knowing anything about it.

"You don't have to thank me, my dear. It was a pleasure. I'm sorry you've had to sacrifice your old life. It's the least I could do. By the way, it would not be better you get a new name to match your new body and your new life?

"A new name?" Bloom asked. "Like what?"

"I don't know" the Lord answer. "Maybe... I know! What about Cherry Blossom.

"Cherry Blossom?" Bloom mused. "Till is not bad."

"So, therefore, your new name is Cherry Blossom" the Lord of Order announced. "Good luck, my dear."

Having said this, his image of the river disappeared and Bloom, now Cherry Blossom, could come back to see her new face. Later, she stood up, turned to the direction that the Lord of Order had told her and started walking, instinctively coordinating her four hooves. She was now heading for a new life.
