The squeaky wheel gets the grease, the other wheels live forever. Welcome to Ponyville.

Listeners, as always I prefer to start the day off on a cheerful note, and I have just the thing to bring a smile to your faces. The military governess was seen this morning strolling across town taking her new dog for a walk. And I must say that it is absolutely adorable. Nothing touches the heart quite like the sight of a small animal, frolicking joyfully across the town with not a care in the world other than to befriend everypony that it meets. So if you have a minute and you happen to run into the governess and her new dog, then go ahead and say hello, maybe give the dog a small treat, perhaps you'll find that you have made a new friend. With the dog of course, the governess is far too busy and far to powerful to be concerned with petty matters such as friendship.

Here is something odd, there is a light coming from the inside of the worn-down windmill near the Everfree Forest. This of course is the same aging windmill that didn't exist before yesterday, and no one is quite sure as to what the light is, or what it wants. Scientists are urging ponies to stay as far away from the windmill as possible until they can determine the cause of the strange light; they encourage ponies who live within a hundred meter radius of the windmill to evacuate their homes immediately. The Ponyville Fire Department has been called on site, so that they can "Kill it with fire" should the windmill decide to be uncooperative. We had the chance to interview volunteer firefighter, Smoky Blaze, who said "We are doing the best we can to ensure that everypony walks away from this safely. We recognize the windmill as a living being with wants and desires just like the rest of us. We will not jump to violence, but we will do what we have to if the windmill gets too aggressive."

I agree full-heartedly with the fire department on this one listeners, situations like these can be scary at times but it is important that we remain calm and stick to the values that helped build this community. Strange events happen all the time in this town, but we have never solved anything by jumping to fear or intolerance. We here in Ponyville do not discriminate, no matter how questionable a person may seem. So I say, give the windmill a chance, treat it like you would a brother, with love and tolerance, and perhaps we can come out of this situation happier than ever before.

And now news from town hall as it appears that the earth ponies have emerged from their cocoons and have returned to their normal, inferior forms. The primitive animals have continued their rally right where it left off, in the middle of Granny Smith's speech. It is uncertain as to what was the cause of the strange cocoon event or what it possibly accomplished as they do not appear to have changed in any physical manner, but I am happy to say that the strange happenings at town hall have finally come to an end. Granny Smith's words continue to touch the hearts and minds of the earth pony protestors, and it is making me very nervous. What atrocities are these earth ponies planning? What are they hiding? Keep an eye out for anything suspicious listeners, conspiracy is in an earth pony's nature, they are soulless creatures that cannot be trusted. You have been warned.

And now for a remarkable story of a pony's generosity and kindness blossoming out of tragedy. Paul Gareth, a six foot tall garden spider, was on his way to see a movie with his friends yesterday afternoon when he was struck by a run-away cart on Cavalry Road. Gareth was sent to the hospital in critical condition, and had to undergo spinal surgery, an extremely risky procedure considering that spiders don't actually have spines. The surgery saved his life, but the doctors told him that would never walk again. Paul's mother, Elizabeth Gareth, was absolutely devastated. "He's just the sweetest boy you could ever meet," she said, a tear beginning to fall from one of her eight eyes, "How could something so terrible happen to someone like him?" For a time it seemed that Paul's future had been completely taken away from him.

But nopony could have expected this amazing act of charity, when local Ponyville madman, Dr. Frankensteed, offered Gareth a chance to walk using cyborg prosthetic replacements. "Advance prosthetics are the way of the future," Dr. Frankensteed said while balancing on his head, "These 'cyborg limbs' respond to brain commands faster than actual tissue, and are much stronger and more efficient then normal limbs." Paul has already begun his second surgery to replace his damaged legs and exoskeleton with these prosthetics, and he is expected to make a full recovery. Elizabeth Gareth, now filled with tears of joy, says that she cannot thank Dr. Frankensteed enough. "We all need heroes from time to time, and Dr. Frankensteed was the hero that my son needed."

What a truly amazing story everypony. It just goes to show what ponies are capable of when others need a helping hoof.

The Church of Ashwamedha has recently accepted ketchup as the true divine liquid, officially approved by the town council. The High Priestess told reporters that last night she was visited in a vision by the gods. All of the gods. They told for her to go to the fields where the grass does not grow, and to plant a lock of hair into the earth. In the dream the Priestess traveled across the desert for thirty days and thirty nights, until she came upon the foretold wastelands. She placed her lock of hair upon the ground and then buried it under two and a half feet of impoverished soil. She says that she waited at the site for three days, and nothing happened. So she went home. And upon her arrival she discovered that her refrigerator was filled with hundreds of bottles of ketchup.

The Priestess says that this vision fits into the tales of the Holy Book, as it is said in Virtues 3, verse 1 "For thou art a mortal, thy wisdom is limited, and my own unbounded. You seek comprehension, but a sandwich without condiments is but bread and grass." As of now all followers of the church are required to abstain from food and water and only consume the food of the righteous. Which is ketchup. New members will from now on be baptized in ketchup, as opposed to holy water. The Priestess has declared that these changes are imperative for the soul's ascension, and that those who do not adopt these ways are "lowly sea urchins who are not worthy of salvation."

Listeners, the front door to the windmill has suddenly opened. Scientists were attempting to communicate with the windmill by throwing paper airplanes at it from a safe distance, when suddenly its rotting, wooden door swung open. The open door has cast the ghostly light over those who look upon it, and it is making scientists understandably uncomfortable. They tell us that if they stand within the beam of light that a dark spirit appears behind them. They describe the spirit as being transparent, flat, and lying on the ground behind them copying their every move. Volunteer firefighter, Smoky Blaze, says that the spirits are probably just "shadows", or the absence of light in an area due to the fact that light is being obstructed by a body or object. He says that there is no reason to worry about the shadows, but scientists are not taking any chances. They have already begun digging trenches in the area, and a defensive bunker has been erected where a makeshift command center is held. "Whatever the Windmill decides to do, we'll be ready!"

Now I don't usually give reviews on this show, but I feel that you need to hear this warning. If you stop by the Chocolate Pegasus Cafe, do not, and I cannot stress this enough, DO NOT order the new hayseed latte! Words cannot possibly describe the unbearable suffering that came upon me after drinking it. I fear that my digestive system may never be the same after being horribly violated by poison in a coffee cup! I lost three pounds when I had finished expelling the substance from my body and the studio bathroom has been quarantined ever since. And this experience is unfortunately not unique to me, in fact roughly a dozen other ponies have suffered the same fate I have after trying the dreaded hayseed latte. Our very own Intern Lyra died in the bathroom after she stopped by the Chocolate Pegasus, despite all of our warnings and graphic descriptions. So if you are looking for a nice beverage to drink while enjoying the peace of a sunny day, DO NOT buy this drink! However if you are looking for an alternative to horse laxatives then I believe today is your lucky day!

And before I move on, I have a few words to give to the family of Lyra the intern. I regret to inform you that poor Lyra passed away after drinking a cup of what can only be described as liquid death. Lyra was a hardworking intern who could always find a way to bring a smile to our faces. I remember the times when she would happily hop up and down the halls, spouting nonsense about humans and other mythical creatures, as if there wasn't a care in the world. Though she did not die with dignity I know for certain that she is now smiling down upon us from heaven, filling our hearts and minds with a little more sunshine. She will truly be missed.

And now that that is out of the way, let us move on... to the weather.

"We should be safe here for tonight."

Rainbow Dash had already begun to clear the boxes that blanketed the floor. Cobwebs hung from darkened corners of the ceiling, the entire room seemed to have rotten away under a fine, grey coating of dust. Fabrics that once donned brilliant colors now drooped from the walls, the life and beauty they held had faded away in bleak misery.

"What is this place?" Twilight asked.

"I think it's called Carousel Boutique." Rainbow Dash replied, pushing aside a crushed box of thread and spools. "It's been closed for as long as I can remember."

Twilight studied the mannequins that stood dutifully in a row, each adorning a dress worthy of royalty. Unlike the rest of the room these dresses survived the years of neglect and were still in near perfect condition, the stitching between fabrics had held strong, the cloth retaining its glorious colors. Twilight could feel the dresses gleam, the radiance extending outward and dispelling the dreariness of the room around them. There were six in total. Six mannequins, six dresses, and six stories long forgotten. Twilight's gaze belonged to one dress in particular, the cape was night blue, the tail was garnished in dazzling stars. It may as well have been calling to her, she wanted that dress.

"They're beautiful." Twilight said in reverence. Rainbow Dash didn't hear her, she had been busy clearing a path through the clutter of boxes and fabrics, they could now maneuver freely about the room.

"Ok, Crusaders, there's a room upstairs that you can take. Clear it out first and see if you can find anything cool in any of the boxes."

The three fillies eagerly accepted the task, the orange pegasus gave a brief "Sure thing Dash" saluting the rainbow maned pegasus before darting quickly across the room; they raced each other up the stairs and into the room. Rainbow Dash turned back to Twilight.

"We can hang down here 'till the radio comes back on." She wiggled out of her saddlebags and tossed them on the floor. "'Till then we might as well take a look in some of these boxes."

Twilight nodded and trotted to a box close to Dash, who also opened up a box and started rummaging through its contents. Twilight looked at her new friend, studying her every move; she watched as Rainbow Dash pulled various threads and needles out of the box and set them aside in a growing pile. For the first time Twilight was actually alone with another pony, another regular pony; no guards, no tasers, no evil schemes to take over Ponyville. Rainbow Dash was her first chance for a normal pony interaction; and she was fascinating, Twilight had so many questions.

Her curiosity was insatiable, she longed to delve into the world of another pony, she yearned for the chance to share everything about herself with someone. And it appears that Rainbow Dash was that someone. Twilight opened her mouth to speak but quickly stopped herself. After all, she couldn't just instantaneously spawn an in depth conversation about the entirety of their lives; she had to start the conversation off right, start with something small and segue into something more interesting. Twilight smiled, she was completely prepared for the art of social interaction.

"So you really like listening to the radio, don't you?" Twilight grinned with anticipation.

"Yeah, it's alright."

She responded!! Twilight mentally celebrated her social victory. Although, perhaps prematurely; where does she go from here? She had expected the conversation to be in full flight by now, Rainbow Dash should be eagerly spilling out every exciting detail about her life and her adventures. So why isn't that happening? Rainbow Dash continued to rummage through the box of fabrics in utter silence, not even acknowledging Twilight's presence or the conversation she had tried to start.

Was her segue somehow wrong? Was it not enticing enough to lure Rainbow Dash into a discussion? Twilight wasn't entirely sure, the only practice she had with talking was with her books, and those conversations were very one-sided. Maybe she should try again, perhaps then Rainbow Dash would recognize the connection that she was trying to start.

"So did I mention that I live in a library?" That was interesting enough, right? After all, how many ponies can truly say that they have lived their entire lives in a public library? Surely this was an interesting conversation starter.

"That's cool." Rainbow Dash didn't even blink. This clearly wasn't working.

Think, Twilight, think! There had to be something that she was missing, something that would make her conversation irresistible to Dash. But what was it? Maybe Rainbow Dash wasn't interested because it wasn't anything that applied to her? Perhaps if the conversation was more related to Rainbow Dash's life she would have more reason to be invested in it!

"So why were you arrested?" OH GOD WHY DID SHE JUST ASK THAT? Rainbow Dash's face said it all, the mixture of repulsion and confusion that said that Twilight stepped way out of bounds. "Umm... Don't answer that." Twilight said awkwardly. Rainbow Dash was still staring at her with the same look of abhorrence; Twilight shamefully looked away, she couldn't bear to look into those eyes again. Instead she dug her hooves into the box in front of her, maybe she could pretend that that moment never existed and that she hadn't just won the award for most awkward pony of the year.

"Twilight?" Rainbow Dash's voice broke through the uncomfortable silence. "We need to talk."

YAY!

It worked! It actually worked! Twilight grinned from ear to ear, and eagerly spun around to face Rainbow Dash again.

"Yes?!" Twilight could barely contain her excitement! She was actually going to have a conversation!

But something was wrong, Rainbow Dash didn't look happy, or excited, instead she looked concerned. Perhaps she had something important to tell Twilight, or more than likely it was a reaction to the dumb expression on her face. Twilight corrected that immediately. Rainbow Dash's expression didn't change.

"Umm... What about?" Twilight asked, an uneasy feeling growing inside her.

"Well." Rainbow Dash began. "Let's talk more about this "Dangerous mission" you're on here."

Twilight's ears sunk, there was something in Rainbow Dash's tone that made her very uncomfortable. She didn't sound curious, or interested, instead she sounded like she was judging her.

"Ok." Twilight said, the uncomfortable feeling beginning to spread. "What do you want to know?"

Rainbow Dash's wings spread wide, and in a dash she was hovering in the air mere inches away from Twilight's face. "Let's start with how can I trust you?"

Twilight gulped. This wasn't how normal conversations were supposed to go; this conversation wasn't a moment shared between two pony's, this was Interrogation.

"W-w-what do you mean?" Twilight asked meekly. "I thought I told you everything."

"What you told me is that you had a dream about a random book you found and now suddenly you're on a mission!" Rainbow Dash spat back "I'm not buying it!"

Why was this happening? Why was Rainbow attacking her? "But I told you about the book! This isn't some ordinary book from the library, this is something from outside of Ponyville!"

Rainbow Dash's eyes narrowed "Prove it."

Prove it? But it was so obvious wasn't it? To be fair Rainbow Dash had never seen the book, it was still at the library. But surely it wasn't so hard to believe that she was summoned for a divine quest in an age of corruption to seek the god of all weapons to restore peace and unity to the world? Right? Ok, maybe that did sound a little far-fetched.

Twilight struggled to come up with a solution, there had to be a way to prove this to her. Twilight pondered her options for a while, realization sunk into her heart. There was absolutely no way of proving it to her without showing her the book or letting her see her dreams, if that was even possible. Defeated, Twilight sighed, "I can't." Twilight admitted softly.

"Prove to me that you saw an Alicorn." Rainbow added.

This wasn't going to end, was it?

"I can't."

"Prove to me that the Elements exist!"

Twilight sunk her head in submission, just like before she had zero evidence to support her. In truth she had no idea where or what the Elements were, or if they even existed at all. Twilight fell back on her hind legs. "I can't."

Rainbow Dash landed. "That's what I thought." She said, never losing her mean stare.

Twilight sulked in sadness, how did this go so wrong? She only wanted to have a normal talk with Rainbow Dash, so why is Rainbow Dash being so aggressive?

Because she's testing you.

The realization came onto Twilight in a flash, and everything made so much sense now! She was pushing Twilight to see how she would react, she is looking for signs of weakness! Well I won't show her any! A new wave of determination rushed into Twilight, she stood up proud and tall. If she wanted to earn Rainbow Dash's respect she would just have to show her that she could push back too!

"Well what about you!?" Twilight shouted back at Rainbow Dash.

Dash blinked, she hadn't expected Twilight to turn this on her. She quickly resumed her dominating stance "What about me?" she replied indignant.

"How can I trust you? You're a fugitive!" Twilight stood back up and stepped forward to press her advantage. "How do I know that you're not a thief? Or a Ponynapper? How do I know that you're not one of them?"

"Hey! Back off!" Rainbow Dash growled angrily, "I'm trying to keep three fillies safe while you're chasing things that don't even exist!"

"Is that what you're doing? Because all I see is a homeless pony hiding in alleyways doing who knows what with three fillies!" This is going great Twilight thought to herself, judging by Rainbow Dash's open jaw and the wide-eyed look of horror she should earn her respect in no time at all.

"Are you crazy?!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed, clearly upset with how the tables have turned.

Twilight took another offensive step forward. "Maybe I am!" She declared righteously "But I know better than to let somepony like you trample all over me! I only wanted to have a normal conversation, but apparently that is something that is beneath you!"

Rainbow Dash huffed "Oh is that what you think?"

"Yeah!" Twilight said, not missing a moment. "And do you know what else I think?" And now for the finale, this is the moment where Twilight delivers the final blow. "I think that you are–"

"Um, excuse me?" the white unicorn's voice entered the room. Dash and Twilight looked to the stairwell and found the three fillies standing at its base, their curious stares were filled with innocence and fear. Everything sunk in in an instant, she had pushed too far and the fillies had been listening. Twilight felt like a monster. "We heard shouting down here. Is everything ok?"

Twilight looked back at Rainbow Dash, and she could tell that she also bore the guilt that Twilight was feeling. She looked back to the fillies on the steps.

"Um, yeah." Rainbow Dash said, trying to sound reassuring. "We're ok."

The silence held. Eyes shifted constantly from the crusaders to Twilight to Rainbow Dash, nopony was sure how to heal the situation.

"Why don't you head back upstairs? We'll be up in a minute." Rainbow Dash offered, the three fillies nodded and slowly sauntered back up the stairs. With a sad sigh she returned to her box avoiding any eye contact with Twilight. Twilight did the same, she silently shifted through the container of fabrics in front of her; she mentally reflected on the previous conversation, finding the points where she had crossed the line and tried to imagine how much better things would be if she hadn't ever tried to have a conversation.

She was so stupid! Twilight internally kicked herself; Rainbow Dash may not be her friend, but right now she was the only pony that Twilight even knew. And she had just pushed her away. No wonder she didn't have any friends, she didn't know how to read them; she had only ever had her books, and she had never had to worry about hurting books. Twilight looked back at Rainbow Dash, who was mindlessly digging through her box, she could tell that she also had a lot on her mind. She should apologize to her, try to mend what was left of their relationship, or perhaps it wasn't the best time. Twilight couldn't tell, she had never been good at reading social situations, instead she turned around and pulled over another box.

It was Rainbow Dash who finally broke the silence, Twilight noticed her begin to pack away the box she was searching through, turning around their eyes finally met once again.

"Hey, um..." Rainbow Dash began, "I'm going upstairs, get some sleep and all."

"Ok" Twilight replied, her voice filled with melancholy, Rainbow Dash was already making her way to the staircase. she placed one hoof on the first step and then stopped, she turned once more to face Twilight.

"Goodbye Twilight." she said, and then slowly climbed up the stairs leaving Twilight alone in the room, the words echoing in her head.

Twilight's soul began to ache, a sadness born inside her heart began to worm its way throughout her body, warping and twisting around every last nerve she had. She could feel her eyes begin to water, she tried to hold them back, but the tears tumbled passed the event horizon and began running down her cheeks. Goodbye? Was this really how it ended? Would Twilight awake in the morning to find that Rainbow Dash had already gone, leaving her alone? But didn't she deserve to be left alone? Didn't she deserve to be shunned from friendship? After all, it was something that she didn't understand, something that was warm and beautiful, but also fragile; something not meant to be held by ponies like her. Her teary eyes fell back upon the mannequins in the corner.

Oddly enough, Twilight looked upon the mannequins with eyes of envy; eyes filled with bitter jealousy. The six mannequins have stood together all this time, holding onto nothing but the dresses on their backs, and their friends at their sides. It's funny how something so inanimate could have so much more to live for than Twilight. They had each other; and Twilight had nothing.

Rainbow Dash would be gone in the morning; Twilight could feel it in her heart. And despite the fact that they had only ever fought in the short time that they knew each other, Twilight had never before felt so close to somepony, as if she actually meant something to somepony. Tears flowed freely from her eyes, there was no reason to try to stop them, she was miserable. She felt the heartache eating away at her soul, she felt so utterly lost and she couldn't understand why. It reminded her of the black mist, slowly dragging her away into the abyss.

Twilight stood up slowly, wiping tears from her eyes. She turned away from the mannequins, the sight of them was just too painful. Instead she walked slowly away, and ascended up the stairs.

Rainbow Dash was still there when Twilight entered the room, she was lying down on a makeshift bed made of torn fabrics, her body was still. The very sight of her was unbearably painful, Twilight found her voice to speak.

"Rainbow Dash?"

"Yeah?" she replied, her body remaining perfectly motionless.

Twilight choked on emotions, the words were in her throat but they didn't want to come out. It felt like forever before she managed to force the words out.

"Please don't leave me."

Rainbow Dash moved to look at her, she could easily see the tears running down Twilight's cheeks. Twilight moved quickly to Rainbow Dash's side.

"Please Dash," She cried, "Please don't leave me alone."

Twilight buried her face into the fabric, not willing to look into Rainbow Dash's eyes. She let the tears go; they were her sadness, her guilt, her loneliness; and she let them all go. She felt a warm hoof wrap around her neck, Twilight looked up, a warm smile was waiting for her.

"I won't."

Twilight could only stare in disbelief; she felt suspended from time, as if her smile alone could last forever. She clutched tightly against the hoof around her, it warmed her heart and banished her sorrow, like a light cutting through a black mist. The two mares didn't move, holding the moment for a while longer.

"Twilight?" Dash finally said.

Twilight looked up, she could see Rainbow Dash taking in a deep breaths, each breath attempting to wash away an uneasy look on her face.

"What is it?" Twilight asked softly.

"Do you think..." She began, "Do you think you could walk with me for a minute?"

Twilight looked at her deeply, trying to piece together where she was going with this. Rainbow Dash was struggling to continue.

"There is something that I want to show you."

Listeners, it looks as though we have nothing to fear after all. The scientists who were observing the windmill from the safety of their bunker report that they saw a mysterious figure emerging from the open door way. Being the one who drew the shortest straw, Smoky Blaze bravely approached the windmill to get a closer look, and you'll never guess who he saw. The weatherman! That's right! The weatherman appears to have returned from his vacation and will be returning to work immediately. His first forecast for tonight is that it will be raining cats and dogs. Literally! So now we can all rest easy now knowing that the windmill did not bring darkness and despair as we feared, instead it returned to us one of Ponyville's most respected citizens!

And here we find ourselves once again, at the end of another long week; our minds recovering from the day's labors, our bodies relaxing against the soft cushioned chair, and ears tuning in happily to the radio. We all know that life can be hard at times, but that is what helps make these little moments of peace all the better. Tomorrow will be a brand new day, and tonight is a brand new night; tonight is another chance to dream, to whisk our minds away on new fantasies and adventures. We would all do well to appreciate the night, and the opportunity that it gives us to escape the hardships of the day, like finding a breath of fresh air in a dry cloud of hard work. Tonight I want you to close your eyes and imagine yourself free from all of your troubles, let the cool night sky wash away all of you worries, and then smile. Smile as you embrace a world at peace as we all drift off to sleep. Rest easy listeners.

Good night, Ponyville.

Good night.

The soft rays of moonlight broke through the ceiling of leaves, speckling the rough ground with little dots of light. Twilight felt a cool breeze pull gently at her coat as she walked amongst the trees of the Everfree Forest. Despite the fact that they were away from the dark forces within Ponyville, being outside of the walls made Twilight feel incredibly vulnerable. The shadows of the forest were much darker than in town, strange sounds could be heard coming from all directions at once, and the trees looked as though they could snatch her up at any given moment.

"Rainbow Dash? Are we close?" Twilight asked as she followed closely behind the rainbow maned pegasus.

"Yeah," she replied, "we're almost there."

They continued in silence for a few more minutes down the dirt path. Twilight jumped at every shadow that appeared out of the corner of her eye; an uneasy feeling was forming in her stomach, it threatened to grow into a higher level of fear. Twilight suppressed the feeling, and focused on nothing but following Rainbow Dash as she led them deeper into the forest. Finally Dash came to a halt in front of a large willow tree. She motioned for Twilight to follow as she disappeared behind the leaves of the willow, Twilight stepped through finding Rainbow Dash sitting at the trunk of the tree. There was something in her hooves, Twilight moved closer to see what it was; to her surprise it was a book. Rainbow Dash held it up to Twilight so she could see the cover.

"Daring Do: And the Quest of the Sapphire Stone."

Rainbow Dash nodded, and hugged the book beneath her chin. "My earliest memory is of me finding this book in my room." she said to Twilight, her voice only a whisper. "I knew that the council would want me to get rid of it, but..." She paused, "I didn't want to. It was as if I was letting go of a good friend. Perhaps the only friend that truly understood me." Rainbow Dash smiled and looked back up at Twilight.

Twilight stared at the book, she never would have guessed that Rainbow Dash was a reader.

"I don't know why," Dash continued, "But somehow this book reminds me of you." Rainbow Dash and Twilight held their gaze, a new bond was flowing between them. Rainbow Dash slowly stood up, and placed the book respectfully against the tree trunk, she turned back and looked Twilight in the eyes. "Are you absolutely sure that the Elements of Harmony exist?"

Twilight blinked, the sudden determination that formed in Rainbow Dash's eyes was startling, after a moment she said with a nod "I am."

Rainbow Dash smiled, "Then I'm going to help you find them." Twilight's heart jumped, a smile beamed across her face. She threw her arms around Dash in a warm hug.

"Thank you." She said.

"After all, you'd probably be dead in a week without me." Rainbow Dash joked, she lifted up a hoof and joined Twilight in the hug. She waited for Twilight to let go before speaking again. "Now let's go look at this book of yours."
