学生相聚和送别之时，自己这个局外马就不去凑热闹了。露娜十一点左右从纽崔家出门，本来想说回到自己家休息一下买菜做饭，关照下白猫身体状况。艾寇醒了的话应该自己就回去了。他站在电梯里阅读时事新闻，一则语音占据半个屏幕挤入露娜视野。居然是提亚拉通过住宅区发消息给自己，“露娜姐，我们家的阿姨请假，我中午回去的话，能麻烦你帮我准备一顿午餐吗？我吃的少，随便一晚面试和一一道菜就可填饱我空虚的胃。”
“白银勺勺的事怎么样了？他有给你回复消息吗？”
“别提了，闹崩了，收不了场了。她将我心中抱有的期待彻底击碎了，碎片划破了我悲怆的心脏。我的心在对自己裂开的伤口进行着哀诉，内心的泣血，还有那崩断的心弦。我们以后不再是朋友了。你也别再提她了。”这句话出乎露娜预料。以至于电梯门打开她忘记走出去。
“不是为啥，你们不是好闺蜜吗？她对你说不好的话了？朋友之间讲究兴趣相投，乐于互把彼此当场生活导师去学到自己感兴趣的东西。我的意思是你和白银勺勺身上有闪光点互相吸引着，什么因素能瓦解这种友谊呢？”露娜不觉得一个偶然间的误会无限膨胀能摧毁一对好闺蜜。她开门回到自己家，想到能做闺蜜，代表相信对方拥有好品格，有地方令自己敬佩。这个白银勺勺至于不给提亚拉留半点解释的空间吗？
“飞板璐是她仰慕的对象，我就不该一开始和飞板璐被赶鸭子上架一起做摩天轮，我的确按照你做的给白银勺勺写了道歉信塞进她课本，她在课间看到了，把我拉到走廊里说我背叛了她，她拒绝握住我伸出去的蹄子，拒绝我的道歉。她流着眼泪，说飞板璐文笔也好，祝愿我能和飞板璐一起出校刊，任凭我再解释她都不听。她闹得挺凶加上有两个同班学生伸着脖子向窗外看热闹，我也没勇气把飞板璐恐高的事实讲出来。”语句中透露着提亚拉受到误会而遭受冷落的内心冰凉如同被勺勺的话隔开一道伤口，空气嗖嗖的往里灌能感受到冰冷彻骨。今日再被刺激，勺勺往本就漏风的心灵伤口上撒一把食盐，灼烧和冰冻这双重痛苦让提亚拉百口莫辩，对勺勺不顾闺蜜感情执意把事情往坏处想的行为，失望到点。 露娜途径10层走廊，运用智能住宅程序在生活物品区现场购置了一些葡萄芒果等方便切割后整块塞进嘴里的水果。她顺带狠下心割自己的韭菜斥资在酒吧买下一瓶葡萄酒，准备递给提亚拉让她转交给钱多多。露娜这才心满意足的回到15楼，打开方面的时候白猫就兴高采烈的扑腾上来蹭自己的蹄子，喵喵的叫着。露娜得空回复提亚拉的短信，“行吧，你也是因为这事不想在学校食堂吃午饭对吧？你回来的事爸妈知道吗？”露娜期望提亚拉能在第一时间把青春烦恼说给父母听。早上和提亚拉父母进行沟通后发现他们何尝不注重女儿身心保持健康，儿女是父母的一道影子，你在某个坎上绊倒，他们早在同一道坎磕破了头皮。待过五分钟，露娜投喂白猫，捂着鼻子清理盒子中猫咪留下的排泄物后，提亚拉可能已经坐上返程的交通工具发来回信：“白银勺勺拉动全班好几个同学孤立我，这次她连学习成绩中上的学生也拉进来了。何况，她否认我们五年前怀着憧憬，奋力拼搏想要实现的理想，我看清她了，她并没有真心实意为这段友谊付出。我怎么能再指望一个不听合理解释的朋友和我复合呢？我在地铁上先不聊了。我父母知道我中午回家吃饭，并提到你的表现令他们比较满意。继续加油，露娜姐。”好了。其实这个十五六岁年纪的学生都会记恨一些芝麻大小的事放不下，这是属于他们这个年代的特权，起码在他们的学习生涯中没有生活琐事去压榨他们的精力，让他们的心灵犹如得不到雨点浇灌的幼苗早早枯萎。她多少有点羡慕提亚拉有空思索和闺蜜之间的烦恼事，是放弃还是表示理解，都能站在客观角度上说出道理，不能说必须要求一个学生在这个阶段都做的是绝对正确的事。当然，学习目标除外。露娜按照提亚拉的要求购置食材后，又在厨房那的柜子里搜罗到叠在一起的碗筷，全部都是最新配备，见不到丝毫污点。她洗碗烧水的功夫，程序上即显示食材已经被成功送到家门口。
等提亚拉回来之时，露娜重新审视来月球以后的生活是否符合她所期待的那样理想。她的确经历过一些困难，命运始终眷恋着自己，露娜一路不断碰到善心天赋点满的小马帮住她学会独立，适应异地生活。要是，自己一千年前选择留咋月球，小马国臣民不会在知晓梦魇之月的外壳下是一位月亮公主的事实。按照这样发展下去，没有第二个暮光闪闪再耐心的用书信和我认真交流了。我也再也听不到余晖性格变好的消息。所以事情是有两面幸得，选择哪一边都不会错，我会走在一条充满荆棘的路上收获沿途风景，我也能选择乘船扬帆远航有幸借用我一双眼当望远镜看道小岛风貌，每次抉择就会改变自己的未来方向。我可能脑子一热，匆忙间就下达一个决定，这往往是对家庭和朋友的不信任所导致。我就是这类群体的一位头号代表。事实证明我也没在日后遭受真正的苦难，比较天角兽想吃苦相对来说还是比较困难的。顶多我往一个方面义不容辞的被自我强迫着走下去，我不曾怀疑和夜骐相处会对我的性格造成什么影响。其实还好，谁有功夫在意这些？往前走吧，没多少小马 嗑瓜子不扔瓜皮的。
饭菜上桌，两菜一汤，提亚拉准时来敲门。露娜第一次见她穿校服。短袖长裤，果然是传统学院作风，有点靠统一制度压榨学生个性的意思。“洗蹄吃吧，你来的正是时候。”露娜热情欢迎她，把房间内窗帘全部敞开，向上翻折百叶窗，让蕴含自然气息的春风都毫不保留的吹进来。估摸十分钟，提亚拉去卫生间，露娜则尝试给五月梅的座机电话发短信，“我是露娜，你知道上哪联系虹厂经理云宝吗？我有事找他，不用拨电话，收到请简单回复即可。”
提亚拉迈着淑女蹄伐走入露娜的客厅，仔细打量一圈室内设置。白猫对这个熟客很是喜欢，围绕她双蹄献殷勤喵喵叫。露娜心里觉得她过一周再来做客效果会更好，因为她没有时间购置家具装饰品把客厅布置的符合暗月气息。
“露娜，今天学校下午没课，我打算下午在你家上自习，等晚上我妈下班过来接我。你可以陪我一起学习吗？”提亚拉轻轻用右蹄揉搓白猫背部，向露娜请求道。
“孩子，我家现在还啥也没有，你一会觉得无聊咋办？”露娜问道。
“没事，15楼都有投影设备，我教你点播相看的电视节目。先吃饭吧，我都饿了。”提亚拉满心欢喜地自觉去厨房拿碗筷，露娜则用魔法把厨房里的餐具接过，在提亚拉脱下外套就位之时送达餐桌。
露娜前双蹄合并，贴进脸庞，闭眼祷告：“敬爱的真主，我希望您能祝福提亚拉学业顺利，身心健康，她的父母财源广进，事业上一直往上走等到那一天。嗯，不行，我不会说。”露娜不好意思，话没说完就止住了，“吃吧吃吧，我想一会用英文给你讲个冒险故事。白银勺勺不领情，你暂时先把她的事搁置，我理解你的，这种误会没啥大不了，我甚至和爱慕对象已经交往过。哦，没关系，总之你长大后遇事多了就不会在意啦。”
“我知道你什么意思，没看出来露娜姐的感情史挺丰富。讲故事可以呀？我想自己出校刊，你能贡献个好主意我自然乐意听，冒险类好呀，我们班里男生可爱看个异世界男主从零成长，装备神器拯救世界的桥段了。白银勺勺这么绝情我就随她去，我三个朋友里少了她又不会散伙。”提亚拉仿佛看透一切，十七岁的皮囊里塞进以三十岁的灵魂，头脑虽小，思维依然敏锐？
提亚拉不太习惯在餐桌上讲话，露娜性子里也是这种小马。午餐时间总是平淡而温馨的，白猫眼睛直勾勾的朝桌上饭菜看，身体腾空，多处抓挠露娜想讨吃的。露娜见此就把他们吃剩的菜棒子往地面上扔，猫咪很顺从的埋头吃起来。午餐时间过后，露娜负责收拾桌面，而提亚拉选择把自习阵地布置在客厅。她翻开作业本麻利开写，露娜回过头来，打开《两姐妹日记》从新起一页，叼着笔，开始以真实故事做基础，一步步改写成魔幻故事。
I am known as starlight Glimmer, perhaps the least talented amongst my sisters. Though my parents faced financial challenges, they chose to allocate their hard-earned income towards educational resources, such as books and magic wands, for the unicorn children in our village. Like many loving parents, they allotted funds to support their children's educational growth.
Early on, my sisters showcased significant magical abilities, which I cannot discuss in detail. Due to my distant cousin working as a tailor for a prestigious fashion store in Canterlot, my sisters were able to travel via horse-drawn carriage to receive professional guidance in their trade. Unfortunately, I was not as fortunate and did not receive the opportunity to showcase my abilities to their full extent.
Despite this, I devoted my energy to researching all aspects of magic, focusing on finding areas that I could record, observe, and store for future use. However, it was crucial that my research yielded something valuable, and not merely a pointless pursuit with no practical application.
Why were my sisters granted such unique opportunities, and why was I not? Was I adopted, perhaps an illegitimate child born of evil magic? My academic achievements were respectable, so why was I left behind? My sisters went off to study, and I had only my brother as a companion. Together, we would spend our afternoons reading and engaging in conversation until the evening set in.
We proudly called ourselves bookworms, as we indulged in our love of reading. My brother had specific reading preferences, and he liked to categorize his books according to subject and priority level. Before reading, he'd make himself a cup of tea, and use an Inkewell family feather pen to mark his place in the text. He was undoubtedly my guiding light, similar to two desert wolves running together under the moonlight - inseparable, and reliant on each other in times of hardship.
I, starlight Glimmer, the unremarkable child with parents who toiled to provide for their family, never paid much attention to the inner workings of my psyche. I merely went along and played wherever curiosity took me - be it digging a hole to sleep in or jumping into every field that caught my eye. However, the bond formed between Sunburst and I provided endless discussion, despite the harsh reality of living in a small, remote western town that lacked proper rail transportation. Leaving town required us to travel via horse-drawn carriage to a small inn located 500 miles away, waiting until the following morning for the next available carriage.
In conclusion, my family supported themselves by producing Chanel perfume. With this income, my parents miraculously provided for my five sisters and I. In essence, we were a family of eight horses.
As harsh winter descended upon my small town, it brought with it the most challenging time of the year. This haven, secluded from the world, appeared to be imprisoned by the snow, with only withered tree trunks and suspended icicles shivering in the snowdrifts. Shrouded in the white veil of snow, the town appeared more desolate and frigid than ever. Every step that I took on the snow-covered ground felt like a "squeak" as the dense snowflakes fell from the sky, sparkling brilliantly under the radiance of the sunlight. In this mysterious and serene winter scenery, even time seemed to slow down, leaving me to experience the tranquil and ethereal connection between myself and the world.
Behind our village lies a small mountain, which we reached by following a trail along the back of the water well. I remember when I climbed it with Sunburst, our footsteps sinking into the icy snow and the crushed snowflakes flying out around us. As I gazed upwards at the sky, engulfed in the blue background and white snow, my pent-up unrest disappeared, and I was consumed by the peaceful and elevated moment. At the mountain peak, snow was already falling heavily, filling the trees on the mountaintop with a strong winter vibe. The exquisite wonders of distant and picturesque valleys and the inviting hill-like landscapes in the northern part of our village were visible. For me, even though it was a plain and ordinary winter scene, at that moment it turned into a beautiful picture. Sometimes, the snow ceased, and the hushed sounds reverberating through the valley became clearer. The view of the mountain forest remained similar to that of every other day, except for the intermingling of snowflakes that made it more enchanting and beautiful.
Initially, I believed that our relationship could endure for eternity, that we would attend Canterlot School of Magic together for next spring. It must be noted, dear reader, that my brother, Sunburst, and I had yet to reveal our magical talents, and being with him filled me with an unparalleled sense of tranquility. Alas, fate proved to us that it was a fickle mistress, for the moment Sunburst received his coveted mark, our parents whisked him away, leaving me feeling utterly insignificant and disposable. It was as though the promise we made atop the mountaintop to watch the snow had been shattered before my very eyes.
It was then that you entered my life, praising my magical aptitude with such sincerity that I was quickly lulled into a sense of trust. Yet, like a whisper in the wind, you vanished from my life, leaving me alone with my waning body and a pervasive sense of worthlessness. I no longer yearn to climb atop the mountaintop to gaze upon the swirling snowflakes; instead, I find myself entrenched in a vast, frozen wasteland. The snowflakes, one after another, fall upon my hair, each bringing only the chill of isolation, heartache, and despair. I, Starlight Glimmer, a lonely star, shining brilliantly amidst the unyielding winter landscape, devoid of warmth, companionship, or hope. My heart aches with such intensity that I fear it will one day crush me, leaving only shattered fragments behind. I leave behind nothing but icy prints to mark my journey, footprints that are soon swept away by the icy wind, leaving me engulfed in desolation.
As I stand amidst the all-encompassing white, I am left to wonder if there will ever be a soul capable of recognizing my true worth, much like the discerning pony who can always spot a precious gem. The monotony of this world threatens to engulf me wholly, leaving me devoid of happiness or warmth. It is then that I recall the night I stumbled outside in my pajamas, losing my conciseness in the hills only to collapse upon the snow's white blanket. When I awoke, there was a middle-aged unicorn before me, garbed in a thick coat and a bushy beard. He had carried me away within his carriage, and with the aid of a magical barrier, we traveled to an unknown destination. I trusted him not, but my heart had already abandoned all hope, leaving my body to slowly wither away.
All I could do was pray and dream of attending a school where I might learn magic, hoping that he would take me to a place that could make that dream a reality. When he brought us to a worn castle, I began to feel as though hope was not wholly lost. The foyer was immaculate, with a cabinet dominating the space, nestled between two archways that led further into the castle's depths. Nearby, a flickering fire cast a warm glow that seemed to soothe my ravaged soul. On top of the cabinet, a collection of shining white iron plates reflected the fire's heat, while a cuckoo clock stood stoically upon its surface. I noticed a white pine table and chairs placed near the fireplace, and a single candle cast an ethereal light upon the room, inviting me towards a future that was yet to come. With deliberate grace, he removed his coat and draped it over a chair, revealing an immaculate face that was as pristine as the surroundings we found ourselves in.
I beseeched the kind-hearted unicorn for a morsel of dry bread to quell the pangs of hunger that plagued me amidst the harsh throes of winter. My spirit was on the brink of collapse, and I feared I could not withstand another moment of such dire circumstances. Yet, this middle-aged unicorn, with all his generosity and grace, ventured to a room down a nearby hallway and retrieved a bag of dry rations to tenderly offer aid to this distressed soul. As I partook of the dry bread, I felt as if I had been transported to a mystical realm of magical education, and the unicorn before me was a wise sage of great renown. He asked me, Pray tell, kid, is your humble abode situated in close proximity? I cannot help but wonder what could have compelled you to traverse deep into the rugged mountains amidst the desolate hours of the night, seeking to prematurely end your own precious life. Such a dire and despondent state must surely have been tormented by inner demons beyond measure, lending credence to the magnitude of your despair. May I respectfully inquire as to the circumstances that led you to this plight, and how I may provide comfort and aid in this most trying of times?”
I confessed to him that I had been separated from my kin, and that, as the only one among them who had yet to earn my Cutie Mark, I had fled into the mountains in order to end my own life. They may have forgotten to count the number of children when leaving the mountain, which resulted in this situation. With boundless gratitude in my heart, I begged the unicorn to take me under his wing and allow me the honor of becoming his apprentice. "Kindly permit me to remain by your side and extend any assistance within my means. Although, there is one earnest request that consumes my every thought. Aspire as I might for excellence, everything else pales in comparison. I implore thee to grant me the chance to become the most exceptional magician in all of Equestria. With fervent dedication, I yearn to hone my craft and unravel the secrets of the arcane, until they are mastered with the utmost finesse. May I humbly beseech your support and guidance, as I strive to mold my destiny and succeed in this lofty pursuit?"
With the demeanor of a wise mentor, the middle-aged unicorn assumed the role of an elder sage and cautioned me gravely, "This path is anything but ordinary. I, Clover the Clever, am verily a magician. Tell me, with unflinching determination, are you ready to relentlessly pursue your aspirations? Despite the uncharted territories of intricate spells, and the risk to your very life, are you set on unraveling the quintessence of magic?" I concurred, for fear of being overshadowed by my older brother, Day Burn, and devolving into a fragile, helpless maiden. I was at my wit's end, with no sanctuary left to seek. "You bestowed a second life upon me, and for that, I implore you to take me under your wing as your protégé, dear Clover the Clever. Your grimoire illustrates the Sirens' treachery, their bewitching melodies sowing strife and chaos amongst the populace."
露娜缓过神来，窗外的阳光由那种纯粹的橙黄色逐渐转变为暗淡的翡翠色，穿过附着着晨日气雾的玻璃，把高楼大山的影子打在白瓷砖地板上。智能管家似乎贴心为学习两马组开设暖风空调，空气在位于蹄子的高度传播着，另她俩感到心旷神怡。露娜放下笔，不由自主伸展懒腰，希望塞莱斯蒂亚不要把这篇杂文真的和星光熠熠的故事做联系，露娜写作目的是为把这个假的星光熠熠和日灼的关系开具设置成有一道鸿沟，之后她会时常与日灼再见面产生互动，以此缓和之间的关系。就像提亚拉和白银勺勺之间在学习能力方面有差距，但提亚拉属于自由选择舍去的一方。如果白银勺勺在过去一年中确实与提亚拉建立深厚的友谊，她一定会在某个时间节点后悔自己头脑一热误会提亚拉。露娜预估，这个时间节点就在三天之内。露娜打开电话像搜寻西姆线上超市有没有美味甜点可以购买，这个空当提亚拉正好和她同步休息时间，她打开露娜家中的液晶电视熟练地找本地娱乐节目，露娜主动去问她一些喜好上的事;“嘿，提亚拉，你有什么喜欢吃的甜点没，我想请你吃个下午茶聊一会。”
“哦，那就搞一杯草莓圣诞吧，但超市里不会售卖单只，你可以买点冰激凌原材料，买回来我和你一起做。”提亚拉建议道，遥控器指向电视屏幕同步问露娜的意见，“嗨，我们看电视休息一小会，你在那边喜欢看什么样的节目？”
“我的答案恐怕要让你失望了，我在皇宫里没有电视可看。城堡侍卫定期合作排练一个话剧，基本上是用喜剧的外壳包装一个内核是悲剧的爱情浪漫故事。我陪我的姐姐在皇宫守着这个无聊话剧待一下午。月球上的电视节目有什么好看的？”
“百家争鸣，有平台筹资自制，也可以看院线公映到期下播的。单拿爱情这方面来讲，你可以把它作为一种副线安插到一个公路片当中，我给你推荐这个片吧。”提亚拉当中选择一档节目，电影宣传海报上画着一男一女推门而入，头顶着璀璨星空，脖子上各悬挂着一种古典作风的金钥匙，一只白色猫咪，有眼有黑色烟熏妆的样子依偎在女主右蹄旁。“本篇主角在海啸中和母亲失散，她母亲的妹妹从此负责抚养她长大。偶然的一天她遇到一位闭门师男主，跟随她来到一处类似圣地的废墟遗迹触动机关，从门那释放一种名为厄蚓的能量。男女主合力推门阻止厄蚓降临大地引发自然灾害后，机关幻化成猫咪一路跟随着女主到家。阴差阳错之下，猫咪把男主变成了一只拥有意识的凳子。凳子追着猫咪一直跑到海港口。在追逐猫咪的过程中，男女主踏上一场横穿大陆的履行。听说这片子不纯粹讲爱情，它是一步灾难反省片。”露娜听提亚拉这么想，思索着可安排星光学有所成后，针对日灼，用魔法拯救几次坎特洛特，拔高自己的地位。
“看几分钟？你写作业的时候我也写了一个故事开头，这个故事是属于你和我的，我想邀请你顺着我拟定的开头续写下去，我们合作完成。”露娜翻开那本日志，把英文版本的故事递给提亚拉看，“我用外语写的，文本内容简单，我想锻炼你的外语阅读能力，不用着急看完，你一点点看。”露娜蛮担心提亚拉看不懂文本含义的。
露娜点一包薯片，为提亚拉点过双筒草莓圣诞缤纷桶，提亚拉聚精会神在品读自己刚写好的自传故事。她每隔十几分钟就会用蹄子扶着脸颊陷入沉思，魔法操纵着签字笔在茶几上打转。“是不是我把景物描写搞得太深奥了，尤其是描写星光小镇的冬天，那一段不行你跳过吧。”不过提亚拉倒是挺认真的，她主动找笔把故事主线概述出来写在笔记簿，口中自言自语似乎在总结剧情，露娜听得出来她再用外语尝试论述主线，一番自言自语结束，她放下笔，抬头对露娜道，“我还挺喜欢你写的开头。这个星光熠熠意志坚强，和我们班里一些同学一样始终保持良好心态勇往直前。你用她的童年经历映射你自己天赋被埋没不甘心的情绪吧？她的父母是可以挤出时间关心星光的，都是自己身上掉下来的肉嘛。直接跑深山结束生命这个桥段我感觉就是心态变得扭曲了，后面被一个看起来很厉害的魔法师救治。讲道理，她应该多观察两三天再做决定，先要求他给自己提供一个安全且独立的房间居住能验证他是不是好的。要让我往下续写的话，我会先让主角住下来，去联系他的哥哥。可爱标志是自然界看心情赐给我们的，罪不怪她。主角小镇的冬天给我印象是那种冰川，与世隔绝。她要是在这种半封闭小镇度过童年那确实容易把命运限制在里面。”提亚拉把笔挪到空白位置。
“很遗憾提亚拉，这就是星光熠熠做的决定，没有第二次机会，没有悔恨空间。这就是我想传达给你的一个，算是过往经验吧。开弓没有回头箭，不要擅自做重大决策。我犯过一次错，导致我丢失三年学校生涯。”一声猫叫打断露娜的思绪，看样子她已经醒了，一副懵逼的样子。露娜见到萌宠心就被融化了，用魔法把白猫搂在怀里，抚摸它背后的毛。“提亚拉，你也可以试。”露娜道。
“不用了，我摸了你的猫，回去抹茶就不开心了。她不喜欢我们家里谁身上有别的猫咪遗留的气味，天下猫咪都这样。露娜，你想让我续写这段故事？”提亚拉问道，
“你在我日记上写，没事的。白银勺勺陪不了你，我换她陪你完成理想。高中时代的理想是值得尊重的，我们这些事只有机会在学校搞完。对了，抹茶没事吧？”
“没事啊？好着呢。它这会在家眯瞪眼睡觉了。那我写啦？我打算让星光先在这里定居下来，摸清楚周围情况。最好第一时间先和家属取得联系，这个三叶贤者是协会成员吗？”
“这个城堡方圆一千米没有马烟，野外资源足够城堡里的两位独角兽用上一年。星光熠熠和你一样生闷气呢，气消之前不想理他哥，日灼。三叶贤者是个可以信任的好魔法师。我开始设定他是独行侠，属于隐居的怪脾气老头，魔法造诣了得。”露娜道。
Clover the Clever's castle adjoins an expansive, boundless meadow to the east. He employs several unpretentious shepherding ponies to graze their sheep and revel in nature's essence on the meadow daily from 1 pm to 3 pm. A protruding platform on the castle's second floor leads directly down to the entrance of a garden maze via a wall-adjacent staircase. Clover the Clever married a 25-year-old Pegasus, and the couple has a chubby, white offspring. Every day from 4 pm to 5 pm, they enter the maze's center to play ball, enjoy afternoon tea, and practice magic and flying techniques.
Verdant foliage forms the labyrinthine walls, which, contrary to their appearance, are rather simple and easily recognizable. To the north of the castle lies a mountain trail, which the sheep occasionally traverse to graze on tender grass in the forest outskirts when they lose their way. Clover the Clever sets off on foot every Friday morning, and since I became his apprentice, a young girl now accompanies him. They admire the roadside fields and sparse brick houses, greeting the farmers as they labor in the fields.
On this trail, there is an ancient locust tree adorned with flags and an unknown grain scattered beneath it. If fortune favors us, we can hear the skylark's song. A few gray sparrows rest on the tree branches, and as I walk away, they descend to the ground to peck at the grains. The mountain road leads to a local market, where the castle's supplies can be exchanged for goods with the vendors. The ponies here are generally of a simple and honest nature, never resorting to deceit or trickery. Surprisingly, this small market even has magicians selling ceramic and wooden staves. When Clover the Clever is preoccupied, I run over there alone to purchase staves for our training sessions. After all, this is the purpose of Clover the Clever's procurement of magical artifacts.
Leaving the market and traveling 500 miles, Clover the Clever arrives at a train station. Yes, there are trains here, and they most likely lead to Canterlot. For now, I am not yet ready to part with my mentor. I wish to hone my magical prowess to help fulfill the desires of the ponies around me in the future.
Esteemed readers, the repertoire of magical courses designed by Clover the Clever was extensive and multifaceted. As I pen this narrative, I am blissfully wedded and have nurtured offspring for the greater good. I dwell in a graceful vineyard, crafting exquisite wines to bolster the family enterprise while preserving and refining my arcane mastery in moments of respite. Thus, I beg your pardon for only being able to recall specific courses. I remember one instance when Clover the Clever taught me a school magic course in the maze, outlining the curriculum for spellcasting. Due to some friction between us as teacher and student, I was reluctant to learn certain malevolent spells, fearing that every magic-learning child might lack self-restraint and a strong sense of curiosity. Students must always maintain a sense of awe towards magic, embracing light and shunning darkness.
At the time, I explicitly requested to learn all branches of a particular category of magic so that I could become a well-rounded individual, never regretting not learning more when I understood everything. If I were to encounter a fellow practitioner well-versed in dark spells but unable to counter them due to my ignorance, who would I turn to for justice? Sunburst would receive a formal education at the magic academy, so I, as an apprentice, must strive to surpass his learning progress. One day, if I were to save his life using a spell he was unfamiliar with, we would no longer dwell on the past, but rather continue together. Sunburst and I are the twin mage stars of the magical realm.
Now, dear readers, allow me to outline the spellcasting curriculum, which Clover the Clever imparted through a unique teaching method that helped me let go of past obsessions. Lesson One: Fundamentals of Spellcasting (definitions and historical background of spellcasting, classification and overview of basic spells). Lesson Two: Wand Knowledge (wand crafting and selection, explanation of the relationship between wands and magic). Lesson Three: Basic Spells (learning basic spells such as agility, habit, and combat spells, techniques and precautions for spellcasting). Lesson Four: Defensive Spells (learning defensive spells such as snakebite, invisibility, and wind barrier spells, explanation of defensive tactics and techniques). Lesson Five: Advanced Spellcasting (learning advanced spells including werewolf transformation, killing, and resurrection spells, focusing on offensive, defensive, and healing spells). Lesson Six: Dark Magic and Restoration Spells (dark magic includes forbidden spells, curses, and enchantments; restoration spells and other healing spells). Lesson Seven: Practical Lessons and Simulated Duels (students equipped with wands for simulated combat training, aiming to establish their magical skills and confidence). Lesson Eight: Application and Critical Thinking (examples of spellcasting applications).
Indeed, esteemed readers, I must preface my autobiography with an additional context. I had previously agreed with Clover the Clever that we had become separated from our family, which led him to consent to cease his 20-year seclusion and resume imparting magical knowledge. I initially believed this idyllic life would endure indefinitely. I did not expect nor think that my parents would remember me, the least gifted among my sisters. Being extroverted, I frequently engaged in verbal sparring with my siblings, often resulting in stern punishment. My dear parents, please focus on earning money to provide a comfortable life for my other sisters, and do not recall that your daughter was taken to a rural castle as an apprentice. However, on a particularly overcast afternoon, I accompanied my master on foot to the train station to welcome his peagus couple back home. Clover the Clever had promised his wife that upon their return, he would summon all the ponies residing in the castle to brew some grape wine and hold a parent-child tennis competition at the center of the maze. I had long been eager to see if my master's skills could rival those of professional teachers. Unfortunately, my parents and elder brother Sunburst also returned home on the same train. Dark clouds obscured the once vast expanse of white clouds, enveloping my countenance and thoroughly absorbing my pleasant mood. Why, oh why, must they intrude at this time? I could not comprehend.
Out of courtesy, Clover the Clever accompanied his wife and led them on a tour around the castle's periphery. To their dismay, they openly expressed their distaste for the unrestrained growth of climbing plants, which significantly marred the beauty of the classical architecture. Indeed, did they assume this to be a perfume factory? My master muttered a litany of curses under his breath. Thankfully, Clover the Clever refrained from erupting in anger and ordering his attendants to eject them. I conversed with Sunburst about our academic progress, and he unexpectedly discussed his girlfriend, announcing that they would hold their wedding during the upcoming Lantern Festival, a double celebration. My mood instantaneously plummeted like a frost-stricken eggplant, descending to freezing depths. A man's marriage signified his lifelong devotion to his wife. While not an absolute statement, Sunburst appeared oblivious to my disconcerted expression as he spoke. I beseeched my parents not to broach the untimely suggestion of taking me away. However, storms inevitably arrive, and as we stood within the maze, my parents earnestly explained to Clover the Clever how I had impulsively ventured into the mountains at night, causing them distress, and how they believed I should engage in more beneficial pursuits. In response, I proudly displayed my charming emblem and insisted that I must remain here to study magic.
Clover the Clever confronted me, accusingly declaring, "You have a family. You lie to me. Return to your parents side, for they shall bestow upon you the life you desire." However, I could not relinquish my pursuit of a brighter future, attainable solely through the tutelage of Clover the Clever and his family, who harbored a wealth of knowledge absent from the magic school. I implored him to permit my stay, while my parents beseeched me to abandon my folly and accompany them.
As a reader, one may discern that my parents had fulfilled their obligations in raising me, and I was misguided in forsaking them. Clover the Clever averted his gaze, sighing and pacing to and fro, murmuring my name in despondency. It felt as if I clung to a lifeline as I extricated myself from my parents' embrace, poised to whisk me away at any moment. Clover the Clever swiveled towards me, his eyes wide with astonishment at my sudden defiance. I spoke haltingly, "Master, for three years I have been your devoted apprentice, enduring and adhering to your instruction without protest. I trust that the seeds of our mentor-pupil bond have taken root in this fecund soil. I am loyal to you and even assist with the castle's upkeep. I yearn not to depart with my parents. I have five siblings, and my absence shall scarcely be felt. The crux of the matter is that I desire to continue my education under your guidance independently. My connection with Sunburst has vanished, and he remains indifferent to my survival these past three years. Master, I beseech you. In the name of our triennial bond, persuade my parents to depart, allowing me to remain here and acquire magical knowledge from you. Is this feasible?"
Clover the Clever's countenance darkened, and I braced for the worst, dreading he would consign me to my parents' despondent embrace. To my astonishment, he acquiesced to my entreaty, "I am Clover the Clever. I had intended to retreat into seclusion, but upon encountering the opportunity to preserve your daughter's life, I altered my course and accepted her as my apprentice. For the present, if my pupil wishes to remain here and learn from me, it is not your place as her parents to compel her to leave. I can vouch for her survival here, and she shall neither be listless nor lonesome. You may abide until evening, at which time my aide shall escort you to the departing train. If you harbor reservations regarding my instruction, you are welcome to witness our magical practice beneath the resplendent stars in the garden."
提亚拉凝聚心神构思的时候，露娜低头翻阅以往和姐姐诉说的日记内容等待甜点送货上门。通过这几次在西姆超市上下单购买食材，露娜估测智能机器是直接从住宅楼内实物售卖货摊挑选食物直接通过嵌入在墙壁内壁的管道输送到家。露娜仅是翻阅一页日记后，露娜就听到门口有敲门声，打开门一瞧果然是安全巡逻机把甜品礼盒恭敬的摆在扁平面上，用温柔型系统语音道句，“轻拿轻放，居民损坏琴糖薄荷概不负责。”露娜观察起提亚拉认真学习的姿态。她的眼睫毛完全上扬着，红润的脸颊为她淡粉色的皮肤像夕阳堕入璀璨晚霞那样增添了不少光彩，仔细看她拿笔的样子，符合宫廷魔法师在羊皮纸上总结魔法咒语那样正式和熟练。露娜先用魔法晃动礼盒上方，但这红色丝带捆的紧，露娜唤出镰刀，尖端燃起一丝星火立刻烧断坚硬的绸带，她快速看向提亚拉那边是否留意，好在她在自言自语，检查文本内容。露娜掀开盒子盖，从泡沫塑料盒里取出一堆用来恒温的冰袋和防腐剂，她为提亚拉把装在盒子里的冰激凌盛出自家白瓷碗，再配套放几片草莓用于点缀外观，用魔法端到提亚拉面前，“提亚拉，趁凉吃。你写这么多辛苦了。”
“没事，你咋知道我喜欢芒果口味冰激凌？”提亚拉心花怒放，狠狠用勺子挖去一大口送入嘴中，像是冰片在她嘴中迅速融化在舌尖，“好吃。姐姐真好，你看看我写的怎么样哈。我担心星光熠熠这个离开家庭的小女孩过于孤独，让她可以牵着羊儿去森林漫步，感受雨天独有的湿润空气；还让她住在火车站附近，我觉得让十岁女孩当隐士还太折磨她的精神承受能力了。你能理解我吧，我怕她缺乏同龄小马陪伴，所以给三叶贤者安排家属和孩子，这样她的生活状态可以正常维持。”提亚拉建议道。
“孤独没什么，她必须得有这段经历，我想她学成以后能威扬马国，又是那种前期心态不端正像造反的小魔女，所以我得先让她心里疯掉。”露娜一边说，一边开始阅读提亚拉续写的文本，“不过，这不现实，这个桥段你觉得只会出现在魔法国度，对吧？”
“我可没这么说哈，姐姐。你看主角到后面不爱回去，你写的魔法学院和我的朝晖学院一样，公共教育资源肯定照顾不到所有小马，她有个师傅全身心教她多幸运，对她来讲，稳赚不赔。”提亚拉继续品尝起甜点，露娜在文本中得知三叶贤者用真情逐渐化解星光熠熠心中堆积的阴郁。她一开始无法靠自己挣扎出死一般沉寂的生活，露娜原本想安排三叶贤者这是脾气古怪的老魔法师闭关把能不论魔法好坏都教给星光，提亚拉站在贤者的角度给给与温情，净化她心中的狠，不过父母千里迢迢赶来这个像是庄园的城堡跟一位伟大魔法师要孩子的桥段她第一次见，这对父母是哪来的勇气，星光熠熠又是哪来的勇气对三叶贤者表现出反感父母的模样的。
“提亚拉，你以前写过长篇故事吗？我没想到你能用第二语言连写三篇话。如果塞莱斯蒂亚得知有第二个小马做过我曾做的事，该会忍不住赞叹的。”露娜选择吃蓝莓味冰激凌，窗外能听到像是夜莺在卖弄喉咙歌唱的声音。
“初中开始写，而且是和白银勺勺一起写。是她主动邀请我去当校园编者的，我俩相约写校刊的愿望就发源于初中二年级，校刊会夹带点小清新故事，初三的编辑会选用一些考场优秀作文来充当内容。销量卖的还可以，一篇文章热度能持续一星期。”提亚拉初步解释道。
“真好啊，我也有过类似经历。读者是注重文章写作技巧，文本精良程度还是说，只关注谁写的文章，去交他这个朋友？”露娜联想起自己写过一片歌颂母亲的三页文章却被魔法学院当成装饰天花板的挂纸。
“当然是通过文章认识写它的作者呗。不过初中写的文章基本围绕生活经历来写，平凡生活犹如白开水一般无趣，当时我们那个编辑是初三实验班的语文课代表，他想添加一些劲爆点的内容博得读者眼球，比如加个和校外的某某缠身恋情自身在爱情边缘挣扎一个礼拜全身心戒掉情色专注学习，最后考取名校的桥段。又比如说去参加了心仪偶像的演唱会，追星追的有意义，和偶像一起学习唱歌技术。”提亚拉吃完冰激凌，十分具有皇家风范一般，拿出一沓湿纸巾，折叠成正方形轻轻抹去嘴唇上残留的奶液。“我的意思是，那上面写的文不保证百分百记录真实事件，就连文章入选作者亲口承认，适当增加点虚假内容给初三生活添加情趣，假鸡血。”
“我反对，那叫漫改，另一种形式上的漫画。平平淡淡总是真啊，生活每天有刺激说明过生活的小马活的太潇洒，优越于绝大部分学生，是富家子弟，是未来不考学另有谋生之路的一波学生。平凡没有错，我们每天按照世俗活法盼着时间加速流过，为的是等仅有的一些惊喜降临。这是属于普通小马的路，我理想中的生活应该用平凡的树叶铺垫，迎接从天上落下不寻常的冰雹击打在落叶上，瞬间冲击使冰雹立刻在树叶上消融，和上天柔和在里面的好心情一同化为露水，渗透进命运这个土壤里。”露娜说道点上，感情自然流露，右蹄高举还未吃完的冰激凌慷慨激昂得道，啪嗒，蓝莓奶液滴答掉在茶几桌角，又顺势滑落至她的护靴前段。“稍等，我先把它肝完。”
“几年前或许我们能沉下心阅读大段文字，现在恐怕难。短视频顺着网线走入千家万户，花费基地成本便可获得多倍欢乐，所以我们班一些同学爱上了刷短视频，实话讲这些视频都是写个低智商剧本再指定几个不正经模样的家伙演戏逗乐，毫无营养可言。几分钟看一个笑一笑再重复，没意思。我反而觉得写剧本的懂得轻重缓急，他们起码利用流量赚到点钱。即便如此，我和勺勺一起考入高中，坚持在校刊里贯彻一个实事求是的作风。这个星光，我想安排她去和日灼和好，血浓于水，她俩本身关系不赖，别这样分了吧。”
“她十岁，是容易赌气的时候，她的日灼至少在一段时间内要顾着妻子，星光得独自学艺。我看了你写的文段，文笔很好，你用的句式虽说普通，但考虑你是高中生，能精准的表达出故事含义足够，你写到星光熠熠在这个城堡里度过七年美好时光，师傅教的正起劲，星光熠熠的父母来拆台。星光熠熠赌三叶贤者愿意把自己留在身边，他师傅必然有一门绝学需要有个称职徒弟，所以要传授。我看到你竭尽全力在星光熠熠身边安置象征希望的景色。草原、森林、自由集市、以及胸怀大志，不计小节的三叶贤者。我喜欢你构造的这个家庭迷宫。中心城皇宫设立过金苹果园，结尾处你写到三叶贤者表面答应让星光熠熠留在他身边。你想不想让三叶贤者把全部魔法奥义，毫无保留地，通过实践传授于她，后续情节包括不限定：魔物袭来，星光熠熠以学徒身份使用魔法驱赶魔物，三叶贤者从中觉察到她在用魔法欺负魔物，而不是处于道德警告魔物不要再来。星光熠熠羡羡黑化前兆。你想让她认错，还是说出自己学习魔法的目的- 报复干预瞧不起自己的家伙。”露娜话音刚落，白猫不知何时仅靠软绵绵的身子爬上厨房柜台，半个身体支撑在柜台下，后半身两抓完全悬空，它喵喵的叫着，要支撑不住了。露娜的亏注意到了，立刻用魔法把它抱下来，第一次使劲拍击她后背，“你咋什么地方都去！那么高是你能去的地方？”
猫咪瞪着两只水汪汪的大眼，两只爪子任由露娜把在怀里摇动。露娜认为这白猫喜欢装出可怜巴巴的样子讨小马欢喜，她把脸贴过去反复揉蹭，猫咪这才尖锐的叫起来，“你再乱跑我可打你了哟。下次别做了！”
“抹茶特别乖，我有一次给她剪指甲，我妈给它做表现的可娇弱了老叫；我一来她立马态度一百八十大转弯。这个星光熠熠先让她隐忍着，你可以安排她学习程度突破瓶颈期，能和三叶贤者同台较量的时候提出要自立门派，毕竟有监督我也受限制。就跟白银勺勺想学文，我舍不得她也得学文，我反而是理科成绩稳定班里前五。这次我想明白了，她执意跟我闹僵，我还在教室呢，看见谁和我讲话就支过去，我倒被搞得里外不是马了。没有她我更轻松，反正我妈还催着我学金融。学了理科她能少管我。”提亚拉有点生气，轻声抱怨道。
“如果你和白银勺勺才认识不到一个月，你可以这样做。可你俩不打青春期就认识？她肯定给与你一定帮助，可以挑的闺蜜一箩筐，你觉得她这个马靠谱，够朋友，你才会理所当然的从框里拿出她这只白萝卜。有因必有果，我建议你先别着急下定论她怎么样，观察两天。”
“露娜姐，她甩脸子了，我干嘛要等她？我又没把柄在她蹄心里。”提亚拉话里有话。
“等一个契机，你们青少年的烦恼没那么复杂。时间是冲淡误会最好的药剂，留意她这几天的情绪状况，她遇到事，你当做无事发生，去帮她！学校内外都可以！”露娜给出建议。提亚拉倒吸一口冷气，腾得从椅子一跃而上沙发，反对道。“凭啥？她那样不信任我。我这学科联盟都被她搞的和我对立，我干嘛要凑到她脸上去倒贴？合着她是灶台把我这个柴火烧干净了，又拿我做工具刷锅？露娜姐，咱可不兴这一套啊。你不知道我们学校里派别意识多厉害。”
露娜先示意让她坐回去，耐心劝解道，“我不用管你们派别意识多厉害，学校是不会要求你们这些学生出错真去担责任，她应该是气在头上，感情用事。你别当真。你站在她的角度想到喜欢的男生和自己的闺蜜很熟，心里是觉得不舒服，你理解下她发泄心中不愉快。接下来你再不要制造话题议论她，也别用她的手段去反制她。”露娜一边给与提亚拉一种偏向中立的建议，一边在脑海中复盘提亚拉的续写故事，露娜需要接她的思路构思一堂与以往不同的魔法课程。天空即将被成片的阴霾笼罩，云彩也卸下淡妆露出原本黝黑的样子，雨水带闪电这就要降临大地。
“我知道，她不仁我不能不义，可是她说我不再是她的朋友，我心里就跟醋坛子打翻不是滋味，估计这种情绪需要伴随我好几天。没事，我忙学习会把她的事暂时忘掉，就和飞板璐皮皮他们说明，先不要和白银勺勺继续维持友谊，分科考试过后去补习班再商量。”提亚拉双臂环绕在一起，从书包里翻出化学课本，学霸的课本通常配备一套自行编制过的课后知识清单。他们自己写笔记总结课本知识框架，配备搜索往年真题自行练习。所有科目提亚拉都配备这样一本。露娜真心羡慕她正处于这个能只考虑学习的年龄。
“对了，你那两个异性朋友怎么看？飞板璐恐高的事你跟她解释了吗？”露娜问道。提亚拉脱下灰黑色制服外套，露出里面洁白的衬衫，她不安的吧双臂交差环绕在胸口，头渐渐低了下去，“没说，我尊重飞板璐的隐私问题。他担心其他班同学嘲笑他胆小。”
“假如，你为了保守这个秘密丢失了好闺蜜，你也愿意？”露娜试探性问问他们这个友谊联盟内部关系是否互相保持稳定。白色衬衫右侧别着一枚太阳形状的赤红胸针，材质估摸着是金属，胸针背后放置一枚别针穿入衬衫里那样。
“我，这事你不能各论各的，我和飞板璐是搭档关系，我们一起在校广播站工作，我负责带她。你说一个师傅要是把徒儿买了我小脸蛋搁哪里？我从始至终不排斥白银勺勺接近飞板璐，飞板璐优秀少年没的说，我们关系也还行。”提亚拉也表示挺为难的，露娜续接故事插入一句题外话“星光熠熠决定暂时断绝和日灼的情谊专心攻克上层魔法禁区，得到三叶贤者的认可后第一时间赶回日灼的婚礼，操纵风霜雨水打断他庄重的婚礼，日灼必须永远陪在我身边。我是魔法大陆上被公认实力最强金的几个巫师之一。”，她的嘴角不禁随着笔尖运作而咧开，提亚拉误认为说错话，连忙道歉，“算了，白银勺勺究竟怎么想由不得我，我掌握不了她这个变量，管好自己就行啦。你说我要不要让飞板璐自己去和白银勺勺解释？”
“我感觉多此一举，他肯定实话实话，不解释恐高的事基本没希望。晾着吧。提亚拉，我其实刚刚拯救一名被网暴摧残过意志的大学生，谣言始于朋友，他们之间并没有深仇大恨，也是像白银勺勺闹矛盾选错方式发泄的，能诚心站出来认错也就和好没事了。犯过错的也不以为着你的心脏，品德败坏。你安下心写生物作业吧？我续写你的故事。”露娜说道。
“如果白银勺勺传我闲话，尤其是传播我喜欢飞板璐那怎么办？”
“绝交吧，是她先否定的。就算她家里有钱有权，一点事敢动用社会关系让你退学吗？学科联盟是学生自发组织的，还是学校举办的？有机会举办娱乐活动吗？纯粹搞学习？”露娜还是决定回头给提亚拉的文本做批注并添加细节。比如，星光熠熠与家长重逢当日天气阴沉，三叶贤者以这个理由把星光熠熠父母请进城堡前庭喝茶交谈。
提亚拉回答，“一个小团体，每个学科成绩排名前五的学生等考试临近，交换复习资料，推测考点。高中真没啥娱乐活动，整天就是学习跑操吃饭。么办法，想放松只能围绕几个社牛做点话题，聊几句。忘了跟你说了，朝晖学院提供住宿，教官他管不过来一栋楼，到时候可以猫在被窝里看书嗑瓜子。提亚拉在学校有一定社交基础。我担心她那么搞下去，影响我和组织内学生继续交流。退学咋可能，她妈妈离婚了，是做公关的。”提亚拉诚恳回答道。
“借光图书馆的书，看他看个天荒地老。你这样，就拿你闺蜜咱俩打个赌。我认为她是知错就改的好孩子，她与你和好，你请我去学校附近吃一次下午茶；我输了，我请你吃皇家级别下午茶，叫上你爸妈一起。怎么样？对了，我说服你父母带你和白银勺勺一家去海湾。你就偷着乐期待吧，她不会真把你怎么样。如果你真的就不理她了，你就和她一样，赌气，钻牛角尖。如果她陷入某种绝境，别的同学不敢伸出援助之蹄，你却去帮她，她第一反应认为你很伟大，你是个很好的朋友，愿意原谅自己犯的错误不计较。她情绪的大坝一定会开闸泄洪，承认错误。”
提亚拉兴致一下子被提起来了，开心回应道，“好呀好呀，学校附近是有一家，我还没来得及去品尝。你可以带我飞过去吗？海港湾，泳衣我在购物车里囤半年了，终于能下单了。终于能穿潮牌泳衣去沙滩沐浴阳光了。你写吧，我也把生物作业写完。”
In this serene environment conducive to relaxation, I quickly grasp the magic being taught to me. Clover the Clever, taking into account my learning abilities, promises to guide me step by step. This is not a school, and there is no need to keep pace with other students. Frankly, my spirits are lifted, and my daily efforts are finally bearing fruit. In just three days, I reach the fifth lesson, and readers, without further explanation, you can surmise that I am asked to learn curses to perform acts against the natural order. Clover the Clever intended to teach me these, but I inadvertently mentioned my concerns. The sky suddenly darkens, and dense clouds blanket the heavens, sealing away all light and casting a somber backdrop. The air is thick with humidity, oppressive and stifling. Yet, the beauty of the garden maze remains undiminished, perhaps even more exquisite. The falling petals and rain-washed grass evoke a tranquil, poignant atmosphere.
Despite my request for Clover the Clever to continue, he only touches upon the subject briefly. The sky is entirely obscured by clouds, and I can hear the thunder rumbling in the distance. Soon, raindrops pitter-patter on my skin, first a few scattered droplets, then a torrential downpour that extinguishes the magical flames ignited by the teaching wand. The other half of the lesson is interrupted, and my shoulder-length purple mane is soaked, clinging to my skin, the bone-chilling cold seeping into my core.
Clover the Clever announces a temporary cancellation of the lesson and asks me to accompany them back to the castle to escape the rain. The entrance to the garden maze lacks an overhang to shield the steps, and the natural rocks appear as if they have been assaulted by acid rain, their edges broken and smooth. My damp mane obscures my forehead and face, allowing some rainwater to trickle into my eyes. The sensation is akin to a small, inconspicuous splinter half-buried in my skin, only removable with tweezers.
I watch as Clover the Clever's figure disappears around a corner, and for a moment, I stand rooted to the spot. It feels as if this scene has happened before when a familiar pony also ran away in adverse conditions. My right hoof trembles, lacking the courage to take another step forward. At this moment, I stand in the lower right corner of the garden, about a hundred steps away from Clover the Clever. I look up at the sky, and I laugh coldly to myself, not out of genuine amusement, but to mock my own predicament. In the end, I remain rooted to the spot.I shouted with all my might to Clover the Clever, fearing that I would never have the chance to learn more advanced magic in the next decade. "This rain is good, clearing away the cloudiness. I feel more confident than ever before!" Suddenly, Clover the Clever turned around and stood still, while I walked steadily in the direction I was facing. The rain soaked the soil beneath the grass, and every step I took sank into the sticky ground.
"Master, as I said before, no matter how dire the situation is, I will never give up my desire to learn magic. It is my only motivation to live in this world. You rescued me from a dead-end life like a helpless toy, and you gave me a second chance. With the violent storm coming, I feel like I am back in that snowy mountain valley, begging him to stay. He left me, but I don't want to see my mentor leave again. Please continue to teach me the remaining spells!"
I walked through half of the maze. The grass fork lying at my right hoof blocked my path, but I used magic to throw it aside. Clover the Clever tightened his clothes and gripped the magic wand in his right hoof. The dim light kept flashing in the snow-white gem on top of the wand. The closer I got, the clearer the image of the light became. In the glowing sphere, there were mysterious vortexes, and the gas seemed to be gradually condensing and taking form.
"Go back! I will teach you all the magic that I promised you, but your hatred and family difficulties are not good. I cannot teach you the second half of the spell course! I'm sorry!" Clover the Clever said as he was about to leave. I was unwilling to let him go, shouting at the top of my lungs. The rain mercilessly passed through my transparent eyes, moistening my dry lips, and flowing into my mouth, "Master! Please do not leave! I only received my Cutie Mark late, and my family has neglected me for a long time! I want to prove myself by mastering magic in all aspects of it! I don't want to be tossed aside like a useless puppet toy by every merchant! I am willing to pay any cost on the positive path!"
A magical ray was shot at me, hitting my right hoof heavily, causing me to fall and roll over. There was still smoke rising from Clover the Clever's wand in the distance. "Do you still want to continue, even though you're being tested by fate? It's a chance not to be missed." The power of this magic beam was equivalent to a small pony hitting oneself in the stomach with normal weight, causing me to stumble unexpectedly.
"I want to continue! Bring it on! Everyone who bullied me and looked down on me, come at me! I am not afraid of you!" I shouted at Clover the Clever, even though the sound was drowned out by the thunder echoing in the sky. I just stood up and another beam of light hit my head. I dodged it and crouched down, avoiding the magic balls as I ran towards Clover the Clever, pursuing my ideal representative.
Bang! A magic beam hit me in midair and I was about to reach Clover the Clever's robe. He took off his mask, and I fell back, lying on the green grass with my belly heaving and panting, trying to maintain my sanity. Clover the Clever slowly approached my side and reached out his right hoof to help me up. I didn't respond, just laughing with my mouth wide open.
"Master, am I going to die? After all, you used a wooden wand." Clover the Clever withdrew his hoof and smiled, "There is an important pony who won't let you die, so wait until you return."
"Indeed, if I were to perish before them, it would only benefit them. Mentor, may I now proceed to learn the remaining half of the spell?" My mane lay fully extended on the verdant ground, its tips tainted with a touch of mud. Clover the Clever merely ignited the adhesive connecting the mask and robe with a spell in midair, affixing the mask to Starlight's face before slowly rising and walking to the maze's corner with his back turned. "Ask this mask," he said. The torrential rain persisted, intensifying with each passing moment. Exhausted, I found it difficult to rise unaided. Moreover, I relished this moment of close communion with nature.
"Clover the Clever, I vow to perform good deeds in their presence, displaying the magic I've learned before my brother Sunburst. I yearn to transform. What spell did you cast upon me earlier? It felt as if I were being lashed by a whip." Clover the Clever magically assisted me in standing upright and, in a gentle tone, instructed, "A sonic spell. The pain will dissipate on its own within half an hour. In the meantime, return to cleanse yourself and don fresh attire. Will you accompany me?" I immediately followed, shaking the adhering mud from my right hoof and tightly grasping Clover the Clever's right hoof.
As for my parents, they did not observe our practice and departed by train that afternoon. A special note: Twenty-five years later, Clover the Clever's whereabouts remain unknown. I returned to my former abode, hired several laborers to renovate the castle into a manor, and planted grapevines on the eastern plains. From that point forward, I made this place my home.
露娜停下笔不是因为思想枯竭，而是窗外的阳光渐渐暗淡下来，提亚拉必须开灯维持屋内的亮堂程度，下午的时光已经逝去。看眼电话右下角显示的时间，已经是下午四点半。露娜触景生情，对还差一点把生物作业收尾的提亚拉问，“你将来的理想是为群众服务吗？”
提亚拉抬起头狐疑的看着露娜，“服务别的小马我又赚不到。我不确定毕业后具体做什么，父母肯定将来肯定会让我继承他们的事业。总之，我赚够钱能让自己存活就够，我可不想真说成为什么机关要职小马，事太多我不喜欢。”露娜把日记翻转过来放在提亚拉作业旁边，回应她道，“你不知道，上完高中后要去做哪个专业？你就这样让父母决定你未来道路？”
“不是决定，是继承。月球暗面生活节奏一直在加快，我的成绩倘若一直维持目前排名，东西暗区的几个排名顶尖的学府都可以上，所以我父母平时不管我具体学习计划怎么安排，他们最后就看我结果给与一些帮助。不管我怎么选顶尖学府毕业的，不会找不到饭碗。露娜姐，在月球暗面这边做什么不重要，能稳定赚钱保证开支平衡就够了。如果我选择金融专业，我妈会安排我去她的公司做实习，我可能就选择金融。”提亚拉回应道，露娜注意到她选择填空题模块会针对每个题目平均用时两分钟，她另外在练习册旁边铺上一张草稿纸，用于演算。平时露娜打草稿不注重其格式，把书写的内容按时间从上至下载纸上排列清楚，而提亚拉用心的在草稿纸上表标明题目序号，又保证字迹工整美观，又能立刻找到对应题目的演算草稿。“智能程序最近挺火的，我明年也可能选计算机编程专业。爸妈支持我生活的话，我其实选什么都无所谓。”
露娜开始想反驳提亚拉靠吃老本生存，她听提亚拉说完不想再追究，因为确实行得通，“明白，父母愿意支持的话，就让他们支持呗。自己有实力可以逞能，大不了年轻的时候遭遇失败，父母和你一起承担后果，被这种精神感染后恢复信心再拼。你打算以后和父母一起住吗？还是你和朋友合局？我想你自己住的话得支付房钱，你刚毕业肯定有点经济困难，你朋友一句话就可以答应你和他一起住。”
“要是白银勺勺不闹这出或许有机会吧。我们家今后都会住在这，抹茶回来，我具体看大学那边提供的宿舍让不让养宠物。没宿舍就在学校周围找个小房住下来，抹茶不行让我爸妈负责养吧。这专业的话，金融和计算机都针对理科领域去安排的，我估计这次考试前要报考理科。”提亚拉解释道，露娜看得出来她此时还没在为今后抉择问题而烦恼，而是对当下一道双语生物题怎么解发愁。“白银勺勺选文其实也没关系，你们仍然在一个学校，升迁进下一个等级的学府还有机会一起考。就跟星光熠熠一样，情况必要的话，优先考虑自身前途问题。我看看你这道题？”露娜拿去练习簿仔细端详，提亚拉则拿过露娜日志阅读她刚写好的部分。大约又过去十分钟，露娜把和果蝇有关的题干和问题尽数翻译到白纸上，提亚拉明显结束阅读，令起一页纸似乎是在为故事写评论。
“我可以为故事增添一个细节。三叶贤者不是考验星光吗？你干脆让他对星光释放负面魔咒，一边考验正好把魔咒也教了，等星光回过味来不用再开口就学到了。暴雨烘托出她对命运不公的强烈反抗，这一刻是高潮，这会不说就没机会再说了。事情结束三叶贤者就是个伟大的巫师了。”提亚拉深吸一口气，和颜悦色评价道。
“那样有点太随便了，星光熠熠属于开始缺乏关爱，一下子被师傅疼然后不知道珍惜，走向另一个极端了。她最后甚至学会了时光穿越技术差点抹去小马国几千年的辉煌历史。其他情节你觉得合理吗？这个三叶贤者其实不会在乎一个学生离开他这命途是走向光明，还是逐步没入仇恨被吞噬。”露娜一边说把翻译好的题目递给提亚拉。
“她父母没在场有点可惜。估计永远也不知道关心女儿的心理活动，对了你描述的这个魔法世界也有货币在流通吧？我添加集市就是为了让主角可以想办法在那打杂争取存钱，不然她没法有一天彻底独立出来。”露娜立即点头表示同意，“星光熠熠十二岁以后可以囤积足够存款。提亚拉，你爸妈限制你用零花钱吗？他们同意你去海港湾大概会在这个月多给一点。当然啦，我以往都把零花钱用于投资社团业务。比如购买摄影机外出拍素材，放进校刊当封面；学校附近几个小树林里总有几只流浪猫，我花钱购买猫粮去喂养他们，为学习猫咪的绒毛去用在素描画上，例如实地写生。”提亚拉补充道，“我自身不缺什么用的。白蚁勺勺以前有同感一般渠道买不到的，我就帮她代买。”
“有考虑过自主创业没？你可以尝试给低年级学生有偿补课赚外快。些许没几个钱，不过够你在学校的日常开销，我不清楚你们学校里在各个活动机构里是否提供兼职啊？”露娜问道，提亚拉的阅读工作几乎收尾，“我们高中没有能赚钱的。爸妈要求虽然对我来讲严格，不过他们对我的物质需求几乎不吝啬，我应该和大部分学生一样考大学以后找兼职自己赚钱吧。我就担心把生活重心转移到工作上，读书变得很紧迫，更谈不上有时间编辑校刊了。”
露娜另起一个新话题，问提亚拉道，“孩子，我觉得你现在过得日子相当幸福，自己不用考虑维持生存这种基本问题，在你们学校里一定有一批家境并不富裕的孩子，他们额外会在课余时间自己找办法赚钱养家吧，当然我是一种猜测。假如说你需要为钱担忧，你是否会选择放弃守护和飞板璐许下的诺言，换回自己的清白，那样的话白银勺勺有可能协同你一起赚钱，她更容易从日常生活中理解你的情况。”
“首先露娜姐，在朝晖学院上学一年交的学费只有来自月球暗面中层社会以上的家庭能支付的起，也就是说我们学校是重点示范性质，是个贵族学校；所以不存说那个学生会对生计问题发愁。每次学校在内部组织年级范围的考试，嘉奖前五名一定金额的奖学金当做补贴，我运气挺好拿过两次，每个月做到自主开支是没问题的了。不过也是，班级里其他女生会为谁制服里穿的衬衫最符合潮牌争论好几个课间，朝晖学院不但卷学习成绩，还卷品味、交际。烂七八糟的一堆。”提亚拉喘一口气说道，“其实你故事里的星光好多了，闭门学艺不需要和别的小马卷。我想起来，等上高三学校允许跟不上学校进度的学生申请回家自己学。我对此有点自己的看法：倘若这个想回家的学生拟定一份具体到每分钟要复习哪块知识点，安排自己针对某个知识点去刷没做过的题，在做一遍错题这样细节，家里至少有一位亲属可以实施监督他，那么他回家学按自身进度走，我觉得没问题。”
“我全是自学走过来的，保姆监督完就自己监督自己，聚焦外界通过交流传递给我的信息挺容易让我神经衰弱，每天时间超过四小时的话。我只要自己找个阳光明媚的地方摊开书阅读写作，我百分之八十五的几率集中注意力。你现在是高二，你们一共三年学习时间，对吧？你现在这个阶段的学习成绩还不能为高三打包票，到时候成绩起伏更明显，自我怀疑的次数会增多，那会拼的就是身心健康和好心态了。”露娜忽然意识到白猫仍然安静的躺在怀中，它又眯起眼睡着了。小爪子搭在右蹄上，露娜想动，奥特利的指甲与表面皮肤摩擦，还挺扎马。露娜心想，明天去宠物医院要个专门剪猫咪指甲的工具吧。
提亚拉针对前面的问题再次回复道；‘那我也不希望靠朋友的施舍生活，并且那个朋友是白银勺勺。我妈对我说过要学会自力更生，自给自足。上学时期他们会尽到自己的赡养义务，支持我一切正当的爱好。我要是这样和白银勺勺下头求和的话，以后她会占主导权，飞板璐不一定说秘密泄露把我怎么着，日后有事情可能就不会在找我，朋友之间不再亲密。当然了，日后我不会主动向白银勺勺道歉认错，我压根没做对不起她的事。”
“有经济困难是顾不了脸面问题。暂时低下头谋求利益也是为了保障生存，长期这样自然是不可取的，我回到那个情境继续说哈，你没有零花钱，而白银勺勺干个小生意每个月固定能赚到一些钱。我就不说什么破产流落街头的极端版本了，你可以一次性与她和好，得到一笔资金，然后你去做啥不用再问她求她。长期依赖朋友帮助的话会让咱们逐步失去自信心，也容易让朋友感到压力和负担。这样的关系很容易变得紧张和疏远。而当我们能够自给自足时，我们可以在与朋友的相处中保持平等和尊重，这样的友谊会更加长久和稳定。’露娜解释道，提亚拉马上跟进，小脸涨的像树头的桃子那般通红，“啥啊，我就算喝西北风也不求她，本来就是我主动邀请她做我朋友的。”
“好了好了不说这个了，你们学校初二分科怎么选科目，是只有两种大分路，学生考完试排成绩分流，还是学生完全掌握自主权，随便挑？你走之前我先把这个问清楚了。”露娜说不定晚上还有空处理这个问题。
“去年学校开始摒弃传统意义上的文理分科，今年说是要响应教育局宣发先来的文件改革，语数英进行区统考，其他六科内自己任选三课学习。我本来打算选择生物。物理和地理的，但分科考试前一个月班主任说还是按传统文理，明年正式改政策。无所谓，自己学的好，不怕政策改来改去。”提亚拉自新满满地说道。
“你最擅长的学科是什么，不对，像你如此的全才学生不存在最擅长什么。你有没有对分数焦虑的时刻，成绩越好会不会就成绩起伏越能联想到自己的水平有变化。我之前在魔法学院每次参加考试都扪心自问，我不会失误，一定不能再失误，到最后成绩出来，我又粗心。悔恨自己为啥当场没发现。发现了是不是就能前进几名，教授就注意到我，点名表扬我了。”露娜一边说一边怀念过去道，其实这个例子取材于她同期课堂的一位女学生。她甚至因为几个错题失误了私下掉眼泪。
“不用焦虑，我一般考前一天都放松心情做点别的，写写文摘。功夫我都下在平时。知识点都掌握了就没什么好紧张的了，你进去考场那一刻所有的担心都没有意义了，所谓的担心也不用变成一种所谓的焦虑。你要说特别在意某一次考试的分数，考试，其实他只在乎这一次考试后的分数，经常看见同桌考试完面对试卷自己默念，考的不好啊，特别难过，用一星期两星期调整都调不过来。他考试前干啥去了，他有没有底气说考试之前把事情都落实做到位了，错题本都仔细核对过一遍了没，课堂遗留问题全查清弄懂没。倘若他像我一样有这个底气的话，那对于考试结果也没有什么好遗憾的，我就是这个分数，认了。”我要弄个有偿解答，你还别说我能割菲菜的，”提亚拉套用自己的经验，说道批评的话时，表情生动地装作生气的样子，对露娜说道。如果班里成绩一般的，到了考试前一趟课到处串位置问题，去老师办公室排队。
“我离开学校明白了，焦虑其实是一种借口，因为它会让我停留在口头上抱怨而逐渐说服我不在蹄踏实地去努力，真正去拼劲全力一路走过来把每件事情落实好。我想起第一次星体学专业考试。假如我当时把每个环节都做到位了，进入考场，拿起笔，有什么可焦虑的。如果我当时因为计算出错马虎了，就应该在考试抓时间练习计算能力不是吗? 这坏习惯被我带进高等级学府，陪伴了我半个学习生涯，我应该在两三年前就更正这个问题。你说的对提亚拉，你考试倾向于做卷后检查吗？我全科都做。”
“这个不好说，我们班级所有科目平均起来，半个班级做不完试卷，语文考试也是这样刻意让学生读不完拉开分水岭。没有时间检查，就保证一次做作对。露娜姐，考试成绩像你说的，不标志着一个学生的学习能力。不用附加太多的额外价值，你掌握知识点，更正错题，然后检测，单纯是为了检测你对知识的把握程度做反映。根据卷子，看看在知识点上哪个环节可以优化一下，能够把这个知识点尽量搞明白。今天做不出来题目效率比较低，那就列举出一到五，看看能不能把这个问题给定点解决。”
“其实这个道理对以后的生活也挺实用的，踏实做事，别给以后的行为结果附加额外价值，从而轻易的陷入自我怀疑，浪费时间天天抑郁寡欢不去努力。进入一个恶性循环，我当时差点就进去了，你进去后再也不相信命运终归靠自己改变了。”露娜解释道。她不经意一看，提亚拉脖子上还带着那个皇冠挂坠，“你们学校运行带首饰上学？”
“啊没的，我刚才去卫生间戴上的，想在你面前展示我的美。”提亚拉讲道。
“你用化妆品频率多吗？准确的说，有个家伙送我一袋子高档化妆品，我以前从未见过的品牌，似乎用法也不是我熟悉的，有空教我咋用？”
提到女性的标志，提亚拉并未表现出青春少女应有的对化妆品的迷恋，“我只会基本操作，你应该问我妈。我觉得你现在这样挺漂亮的。你是天角兽，有权利去三族去不了的地方。我爸说的，她俩总当着我面谈工作，以为我啥都不知道。”提亚拉看眼电话，惊呼半小时又从蹄子缝隙间悄然溜走，“关于小说最后一个问题，三叶贤者对星光释放魔法的时候，有想过抹除她的意识吗？我意思是，让星光先休眠，趁她醒过来以前，星光安排城堡侍从把她送到火车站，也是一种方式。”
“那就不是个童话故事，除非过十几年星光完全掌握一些高级魔法可以。你可以把这个转换成告别仪式。提亚拉，我写的翻译你能看懂吧？几点了现在？”露娜该去喂猫了，“五点多了，我爸妈应该到家准备午饭了。”提亚拉开始把身边学习物件逐一放进包里，露娜一只蹄子就要撕下小说部分内容交给提亚拉，对方只是礼貌地推开，“小说是你写的，你留着吧。等我们去海港湾前夜你也来。我妈喊我回家了，你来不？”
“我还得出趟远门，跟你妈说不要单独准备晚饭给我，梦里见到不干净的东西第一时间和我讲，今晚我会与她做个了断。”露娜眺望窗外，一些悬浮汽车开始驶入小区走廊，她和提亚拉又度过了一个难玩的下午，她是第一次和一名高中生合作起来写小说。她不知道，这个星光差点被仇恨蒙蔽双眼，没有活着的小马清楚星光熠熠精通的魔法下限在哪。
“露娜，我可以在故事后面写一段结语吗？”
“嗯？好啊，以后这个故事交给你续写。”露脸看提亚拉从作业本抽出一页，快速写下这段文字：
The story of Starlight Glimmer - Part 4
Produced by Diamond Tiara
Over the years, Starlight Glimmer has progressively mastered numerous advanced spells under the rigorous tutelage of Clover The Clever. With a bustling academic career and Clover The Clever frequently traveling by train to attend to business, it fell upon the apprentice, Starlight Glimmer, to shoulder the burden of daily life, assisting Clover's wife and children in managing the castle. In her spare moments, Starlight Glimmer never forgot to care for her parents who raised her, as well as her elder brother, Sunburst, who was studying at the Canterlot School of Magic. They never abandoned her, for no one would forsake their child without reason. Every summer, Starlight's parents would entrust a mail carrier to send her pocket money and daily necessities. I am certain that she grew up healthily until the age of twenty-five. If you inquire as to who I am, I am Clover The Clever, the Chief Archmage of the Magical Continent.
PS；星光熠熠的故事原文：
我是星光熠熠，姐妹当中天赋最平凡的一位。我的父母生活环境尽管很拮据，但他们把赚来的钱舍不得给自己添漂亮衣裳，和广大慈爱的父母一样，他们用赚来的血汗钱购买图书魔法棒当学习资源送给独角兽儿女们。我的姐妹在很早就显露出各自的魔法天赋，具体都是些什么内容我不想讲，重点在于父母把我的姐妹们接连站在村口送到一辆马车上，因为我有个远方表格在坎特洛特中心城的时尚店里做裁缝，他负责把家里的姐妹接送到当地，只要让一个有名贵族编几道题给孩子们做个测试。简单来说，谁会用开学考试难为新生？我就没那么好的运气，还在煎熬着，我尝试把精力用在几乎所有和魔法有关的领域上做研究，一定是那种可以研究出可供记录、观察、储存的成果，别到时候做出来像个夏日里的哈巴狗仅仅是为疏散闷热感露出舌头，傻高兴。拜托吧！凭啥我的姐妹一个个的都去新环境，接受专业指导学习去了？我难道是父母捡来的孩子？不，我会不会是被邪恶魔法造出来的逆子？我的成绩不差啊！姐妹们都走了，剩下哥哥陪伴我左右，我们经常下午围在一起读书闲聊直到傍晚。我们很自豪的把自己叫做不折不扣的书虫。我记得他的读书偏好，习惯吧下午预读的书目按科目轻重裸在一堆，读书前沏一杯红茶，读书所做标记用的羽毛笔，其羽毛和墨水必须来源于Inkewell家族。可以这么说，他是我生活中的一抹白月光，就像是两匹沙漠孤狼并肩在夕阳下奔跑，前方路途不知多遥远，彼此是唯一能在绝境中指望上的依靠。我，我，天赋平平，父母们的工作似乎耗费半辈子也忙不忘，从来不主动关注自己的心理住着的这只活蹦乱跳的小兔子，往哪块草地蹦，去田野里哪块地刨个坑睡觉。可是，日灼关心啊啊！同龄小马只要拥有相同价值观，总会有说不完的话题。好了，这就是我我的家庭情况。哦，你问我住在哪里？西部的一个偏远小镇，对外不通火车，出门只能靠马车连夜赶到五百里外的一个小酒馆住下，等到第二天清晨有马车来载客。我的家庭靠制作香奈儿香水谋生，他们用这笔钱奇迹般养活了我五个姐妹。这样算上来，我们一家八口小马！
严冬降临，我的小镇迎来一年中最艰难的时刻。那是一个避世之地， 冬天的雪一葬身进去，仿佛囚禁了小镇的生命力，只有枯槁的树干和悬挂的冰柱在雪堆里瑟瑟发抖。此时的小镇，在漫天白雪的掩护下，显得更为萧瑟，更为清冷。走在雪地里，每一步都会发出“吱嘎”的声音。眼前，密密麻麻的雪花从天空飘落下来，在阳光的映照下闪闪发亮，十分绚丽。在这神秘而悠然的雪景里，连时间也变得慢慢了，静静的，宁静的，仿佛是我和世间唯一的交融。我们小镇后面有一座小山，从打水的井绕道背后就可以顺着小路直达山顶。我和日灼去过一次。还依稀记得，我们的蹄印步步沉在冰凌雪地中，踩碎的雪粒不断向周围飞溅，我仿佛忘了内心积压的局促，抬头仰望天际，被蓝色的天空和白色的雪域淹没，心情结为一片，宁静而崇高。山顶上已经飘起了雪，浓郁的冬季气息伴着雪花飘满山峰上的树木，像一件件手工花边拼贴的小裙子。远处如瑰丽的鬼斧神工、山底如鸟翼般铺展的山谷，为什么能看到山谷？因为我们的小镇北方链接一处丘陵地貌，在往反方向走就出了小镇。对我而言只是平淡而单调的雪景，却在那瞬间成为了一副美丽的画卷。时而，雪停了，沉寂在山谷之间的响声变得更加明朗。此时，我走在雪地之中，过不去的寂静，不时传来雪滴跌落的声音。山林中的景象一如往常般，只不过漫天的雪片融入其中，变得更加缠绵，更加美好。
本来我觉得，我们可以一直保持这样的关系。我们在今年春天来临之际约定一起考入坎特洛特魔法学院。说句题外话，读者会把我划分在普通姐妹花那一类中。事实恰好相反，日灼和我一样尚未显露魔法天赋，我和他在一块觉得万分轻松。直到那一天来临，他比我早一步获得可爱标志，父母们一窝蜂把他从客厅里抢出来，似乎要把他从我身边夺走一般。我较小的身躯扒着窗框，看到父母兴奋地把他举起欢呼。读者们，这一时刻对我来说是里程碑般的存在。事实明了，我沦落到家里最没用的存在。我难以想象，我们在山顶观雪立下的诺言竟轻易被命运开玩笑。命运嘲弄了我，把我不如日灼哥哥的事实啪的摔在我的脸庞上，隐隐作痛。我们一块在多少个慵懒的午日度过属于我俩的学习时光，我没有忘记只有你发自内心夸赞我有魔法，金子总会闪光，只是时候未到。我被你诚实的外表欺骗了，你把我孤零零的抛弃在这个偏僻小镇自己去拥抱崭新生活去了。独留我我等待躯体糜烂那样也发挥不了自我价值。我再也不愿意去山后看雪景了。今年冬日让我置身于无边寒冷之中。雪花落在我的发间，只感觉到了寒冷和疼痛。我，我孤零零地站在这里，这雪景没有让我感到任何的温暖，只有漫天的寒意和萧瑟。忧郁的心情像是无法承载，犹如冰面上的蹄印，轻轻地被风吹去，留下的只是一片冰冷、荒凉和孤独。我看着周围环绕着阴冷的雪，我开始思考那些曾经让我热泪盈眶的美好回忆，在这个世界上我是否能够等到慧眼小马鉴别出我这块被遗弃的璞玉。这个白色的世界，也许会将我的忧郁深深地吞噬，让我无法忍受。我默默地祈求，希望能尽快摆脱这个地方，迎来属于我的温暖和欢乐。我忘记了那一夜是如何只穿睡衣走进山丘然后迷了路，昏倒在皑皑白雪上失去意识。等我在再度醒来，一位穿着厚厚袍子的中年独角兽，他似乎留着八字胡须，一声不吭的坐在我前方。我这才发现被他装进一架马车。他仅仅是用一道魔法屏障就把我们两只活生生的小马与这魔鬼般的冬日间隔开来。这罩子会随着马车行驶而即是改变位置，他没有吭声，仿佛拉我去遥远而未知的目的地是他的此次行程目的。我凭本能相信是他去山顶救了我的意识，他要把我带到自己居住的地方。他是坏的花，我正好破罐破摔，让遗憾跟我的身体一起见鬼去吧。我只能祈求，他打算不论何时把我送进个学校进修魔法。事实也的确如此，他在某个落魄的城堡停下。我在城堡外围看到一道友好的亮光从城堡外墙离地不到一米高的一扇挺小的放心各自窗内泻了出来。有窗的这面墙，被攀援植物爬满了，密密麻麻的叶子将窗户包围住了。他带我走进城堡前厅的时候，我清楚地看到了前厅内有非常干净的灰浆地面，一副柜子被按在两道通往深处空间的拱门之间，壁炉就在不远处，正吞噬着为数不多的木炭。柜子内整齐地摆放着白铁盘子，那些盘子讲你炭火的红光与火焰全都反射了出来。我还看到柜子顶层中间摆放着一只布谷鸟钟，前厅靠近壁炉的地方摆放一张白松木的桌子和几把椅子。一支蜡烛此刻正在桌子上燃烧着，仿佛为我指引未来的道路。他把外衣缓慢脱下，搭在那把椅子上。在烛光映衬下，我，我看清了他的面容。同他四周的全部东西一样，干净地一尘不染。
我问他能不能给我一块干面包吃，我的精神真要快被这糟糕的冬天压迫至崩溃，我真的很饿。这位中年独角兽慷慨去一个走廊侧面的房间里拿来一袋干粮临时给我临时救急。我，我第一次吃干面包。我似乎双眼出现幻觉，认定这所城堡从事魔法教育行业，他问我，“你的家是否在附近？为什么深夜发癫跑进深山里来终结自己生命？”现在回想起来，我当时要在山里被冻死了，那位面太憋屈，太便宜我哥日灼了，命运眷恋我的性命，派我面前的这位独角兽救我一命。“我和亲属走散了，我是家长唯一一个仍未获得可爱标志的幼驹，可能他们下山忘记清点孩子们的数量造成现在这个局面。感谢您把我从死神怀抱中拯救出来，我想报答您，请您把我留在身边，让我做什么都行！我不得不提一个要求，别的都可以搁置在后！我要成为小马国里最杰出的魔法师！”中年独角兽表现出老教师姿态，严厉对我劝解道，“这条路非比寻常，我的确是一名魔法师，你可以叫我，三叶贤者。你真的愿意，无论发生什么事，都愿意坚定不移地朝目标努力吗？就算心智一次又一次被未知法术险些迷惑，丢掉性命，你也在所不辞，追求魔法的本质吗？”我必须答应，否则日灼哥哥会比我越来越优秀，我就会成为弱势者，在他面前求安慰的那个羸弱女孩。我已经穷途末路，当下又有哪里可去？“我的第二条命是您给的，请您收我为徒，三叶贤者，你的书中记载过，塞壬用歌声迷惑群落心智，诱使他们内斗。”
三叶贤者的这个城堡东面与一片广袤无垠的草原接壤。他雇佣几位朴实的牧羊小马每天从下午一点到三点在草原上放羊享受大自然的气息；从城堡二层的一个突出平台上沿着靠墙楼梯直接下来直面园林迷宫的入口。三叶贤者娶了一名二十五岁的天马，夫妻俩剩下一个白胖小子，每天下午四点至五点和家属步入迷宫中央打皮球，喝下午茶，练习魔法和飞行技术。郁郁葱葱的树丛组成了迷宫的墙壁，迷宫结构并不复杂，反而想当好认。而城堡的北面则则连接着一条山间野路，羊群迷路时偶尔穿过公路牙子去北面的森林外围吃嫩草。三叶贤者会定时在每周五的清晨准是步行出发，我拜师以后就多了一个小女孩陪伴。他们沿途欣赏着路边的农田、稀疏的砖瓦房，路过农民在田野劳作时，我跟着三叶贤者对他们打招呼。在这条路上有一颗老槐树，树底下插着一些旗帜，散落着不知唤作什么名的谷物。运气好的话，我可以听到百灵鸟在歌唱。几只灰色的小麻雀飞落树梢休息，我走远一点，麻雀们会飞落地面低头用嘴啄谷物吃。这条山路直通一个民间集市，城堡内的物资可以随时在这里用货币和摊贩交换换去一定物资。这的小马普遍性格淳朴，从来不想些坑蒙拐骗的事。当然，这个小集市竟然有魔法师兜售陶木法杖。我会在三叶贤者忙不过来的时候独自跑过去，帮三叶贤者买下法杖用于课程训练。毕竟这就是三叶贤者购买魔法道具的目的，走出集市五百里，三叶贤者抵达一处火车站。对，这里能通火车！火车大概会是通往坎特洛特爸。我暂时还不想离开自己的师傅，我想修炼自己的魔法造诣去帮助今后身边小马实现愿望。
三叶贤者给我设定的魔法课程种类繁多。写这个故事的时候，我已经娶妻生子，在一个优雅的葡萄庄园里一边酿制葡萄酒赚钱支撑家族产业，一边在闲暇之余维持我现有的魔法水平。所以请读者恕我之能记忆其个别课程。我记得有一次三叶贤者去迷宫里传授我学校魔咒课程，魔咒学课程提纲；因为我们师生之间因为某些问题产生了一点摩擦，我不愿意把一些邪恶魔法传授与我，担心每一个学习魔法的孩子不懂得克制自己强烈的好奇心，学生得对魔法始终保持着敬畏之心，拥戴光明，远离黑暗。我当时明确要求学习一类魔法所分类下去的全部分支，这样我可以做个全才，当我什么都懂的情况下就不会后悔当初怎么不多学一点。换个思路想，我没有学习黑暗面，遇到另一位熟知黑暗法术的同行，却因不了解其奥秘无法反制对方？那会找谁说理去？日灼会在魔法学院接受正统的教育，我着占着学徒魔法的位置必须赶超他学习进度才好啊。有朝一日我出去运用他不会的法术救了他的命，都不用他向我道歉了，我俩就不惦记以前咋样，反而会继续在一起的。日灼和我是魔法大陆上的法师双子星。好了读者们，我要先给你们列出出魔咒学课程大纲，三叶贤者用了一个很别致的教法，使我放下过去执念。第一课：【魔咒学的基础知识】（魔咒学的定义和历史背景、魔咒学的分类和基础法术的概述）第二课：【魔杖知识】（魔杖的制作和选杖的技巧、魔杖和魔法友好关系的讲解）第三课：【基础咒语】（灵动咒、习惯咒、打斗咒等基础咒语的学习、咒语释放技巧和使用注意事项）第四课：【防御咒语】（蛇咬咒、隐身咒、御风咒等防御咒语的学习、防御战术和技巧的讲解）第五课：【进阶魔咒学】（学习高级咒语包括狼人变形咒、杀戮咒、复生咒等、聚焦于进攻、防御和治愈咒语）第六课：【黑魔法和复原咒语】（黑魔法包括禁咒、诅咒、妖咒等，复原咒语和其他恢复咒语）第七课：【实践课，模拟斗法】）学生配备魔杖进行模拟实战训练、以建立其魔法技巧和信心为目的）第八课：【应用与思辨】（魔咒学的应用举例）
对了，敬爱的读者们，我要在自传最前面补充一则设定。我跟三叶贤者事先说好，我已经和家属们走散了，他才同意停止闭关二十年重新传授魔法。本来我以为这种恬静的生活能永远持续下去。我不指望也不觉得父母在好几个姐妹里能惦记起最没有天资的我。我性格外向，经常容易和姐妹拌嘴吵架，少不了紧闭惩罚。父母啊，你们就安心赚钱给其他姐妹创造好生活，千万不要想起来你的女儿被收到乡村城堡当学徒。可在某个阴凉下午。我我陪师傅徒步去火车站接待他的飞马夫妻视察回家，因为三叶贤者答应妻子一回来就号召所有待在城堡里的小马一起酿几杯葡萄酒，在迷宫中央举办一场亲子网球竞赛。我一直想看看师傅的技术能否比的上专职教师。不巧，很不巧。我的父母和日灼哥哥也乘坐一辆火车回家。乌云遮住成片白云，也爬上我的脸，把我的美好心情全吸收掉了。为什么，为什么他们在这个时候来搅局？我不理解。三叶贤者出于礼貌陪同妻子一起，领着他们在城堡外围参观一番，他们竟然还当众嫌弃这座城堡上攀缘植物无节制生长极大抹黑了这古典建筑之美。真是的，他们以为这是酿制香水的工厂吗？当我师傅面说一箩筐粗话。好在三叶贤者没有当场发怒请侍从推他们离开。我在旁边和日灼哥哥聊学习近况，他竟然谈女朋友，宣布我们会在下个元宵佳节趁着年味举办婚礼，双喜临门。我的心情立刻犹如霜打的茄子，跌落至冰点。一个男生结婚意味着他一辈子只能对妻子好。这话不绝对，但日灼当时自顾自在说没觉察到我脸色有多难看。我乞求父母不要提出把我带走这种不合时宜的话。可暴风雨总会来临，我们身处迷宫后，父母诚恳向他解释我如何自己想不开深夜跑进山坳让父母着急，以及说我应该去做正事等等。我当场亮出我的可爱标记，告诉他们我得留在这学习魔法。
三叶贤者当场质问我，“你有家属，你撒谎了。现在请跟你的父母离开吧，他们会给你想要的生活。”我当然不能放弃追求到蹄的光明前程，三叶贤者和他的家庭有足够时间授予我在魔法学校学不到的知识。我恳请三叶贤者把我留下，父母催促我别胡闹赶紧跟我们走。读者们，我猜在这种情况，父母尽到自己的义务抚养我长大，我的确理亏，应该回归家庭生活。三叶贤者背影对着我，我能听到他在叹气，来回踱步，念着我的名字。我仿佛抓住了一根救命稻草，从父母的怀里挣脱出来，因为他们已经把我蓝入怀中随时准备离开了。三叶贤者睁大眼睛吃惊的看着我语速不均匀地说道：“师傅。我入您门下三年有余，一直刻苦跟紧您的教学进度咬牙坚持。你要我怎么学，我从来不忤逆你反着来。我相信这根师徒情谊的种子已经在这肥沃陆地种生根发芽，我对您忠心耿耿，也帮您承担一些城堡的护理工作。我不想跟父母走，我兄弟姐妹一共五个，不缺我这一个。重点问题是，我想只单独接受您的教育。我和日灼的关系，如今也一去不复返了，就连他也毫不在乎这三年我是怎么过来的。师傅，徒儿求您了，您看在咱们三年的恩情的份上，劝我父母离开，我继续留在这跟您学习魔法行不行？” 三爷贤者脸色挺难看的，我时刻准备他阴沉着脸把十岁的我退会父母绝望的怀抱中。好在，师傅他在关乎我命运成败的时刻答应我，“我是三叶贤者，本来我打算闭关隐居，我有缘救了你们女儿的命，因此我改变主意，接纳我为徒。目前，既然我的徒儿我愿意呆在这里接受教育，咱们做父母的逼迫我再放弃不好。我可以保证我在这里能生存，我完全不会感到无聊，孤独。这样，你们可以一直待到晚上，我的侍从会送你们乘坐末班火车离开这里。如果你对我的教学内容保持怀疑的话，我允许你们进入花园全程观摩我学习魔法。”
我在这种令我放松的环境下领悟魔法很快，三叶贤者充分考虑到我的学习能力，承诺会循序渐进把我教会。这不是在学校，没必要和所谓的学生一起赶进度。说实话，我的内心一下子觉得充沛了，我每天的努力终于体现出价值。也就三天吧，我进入到第五堂课，读者们，不用我多加解释你们就能猜测我被要求学习一些诅咒去做违背自然秩序的事情。三叶贤者本身是打算教我的，怪我多嘴。天空忽然变得灰暗起来。乌云密布在天顶，犹如将所有的光芒封存起来，背景变得暗淡。空气中弥散着密集的湿气，让人感到闷热难熬。然而，这片花园迷宫中的美丽却没有因此而消失，或许更显优美。飘落的花瓣和被雨水洗涤的草地，似乎给人一种恬静而又荡气回肠的感觉。因为我要求师三叶贤者继续传授下去，他只说点到为止。当时天空完全被乌云遮蔽，我能听到滚滚雷声持续传来，紧接着雨滴啪嗒啪嗒滴落在我的皮肤上。初闻几声点缀，马上跟着就是滂沱大雨，这大雨忽如其来剿灭了授课魔杖刚燃着的魔法烈火；另一半课程被迫中断。我的紫色鬃毛当时留到齐肩，这瓢泼大雨完全让我的鬃毛全淋湿了，紧紧贴在皮肤上，刺骨寒意直达我内心深处。三叶贤者宣布课程暂时取消，要求我陪同他们一起离开园林迷宫回到城堡避雨。由于入口出没有突出部分用来遮蔽台阶，天然岩石仿佛遭受了一场酸雨打击，棱边中间出现断恨且变得光滑。湿润鬃毛遮住了我的额头以及面门，一些雨水流淌进我的眼眶，那种感觉宛如有条不起眼的小木刺半截刺入皮肉，只有用镊子才可以拔出来。我望着三叶贤者的身影渐渐消失在转角处，我有那么一刻呆住不动。仿佛这一幕就发生在过去，一个熟悉的小马也在恶劣环境中跑下自己而去，我的右蹄止不住在颤抖，有点缺少勇气再往前迈一蹄。我此刻就站在园林右下角，和三叶贤者相聚百十来步。我仰望天空，自顾自冷笑两声，我并不是发自内心，只是嘲笑自己，最终还是呆在这里了啊，
我向三叶贤者使劲喊，不然自己这十几年，都没机会再学习更高深度的魔法。“这雨下的好，驱散阴霾，我感到比以前更加自信了！”三叶贤者猛然回头，他缺保持原地站立，我朝我的方向坚定不移慢慢走去。雨水把草皮地下的土壤浸湿，我每一蹄都踩进粘稠的土壤里，我说：师傅，我之前说过，不论前方的情况有多恶劣，我永远不甘放弃学习魔法的心，这是我目前活在这个世界上的唯一动力。你把我从那死水潭般的生活像打捞树叶那样捞我出来，我的第二条命是您给的。您看暴雨来的猛烈，我又感觉回到了那个大雪纷飞的山坳里，望着熟悉的背影，恳请他留下来。他丢下我前行，我不想再看到我的恩师，您再走。我请求您继续教会我魔咒剩余内容！”我走过迷宫半场。横在我右蹄旁的草叉挡住去路，被我用魔法扔到一旁。三叶贤者把衣服国的更紧，右蹄紧握魔法权杖，那股暗淡的光不停在权杖顶端镶嵌的雪白宝石里闪烁着，我靠的越近，这光芒所呈现的具体形象就越清楚。发光的球体中原来流着一团团神秘的漩涡，水乳交融，仿佛气体在逐渐凝固，拥有形体。“你回去吧！我会按照对你承诺的那边把能教的魔法都传授给你，你的怨恨和家庭并存，这很糟糕，我不能把魔咒课程后半段教给你！抱歉！”三叶贤者说着就要走。我不甘心，扯着嗓子，任由雨水无情从我晶莹剔透的眼眸穿过，滋润我并不红润的嘴唇，流进我的口中，“师傅！请不要走！我最晚获得可爱标志，我的家庭因此长期忽略我！我学全方位的魔法是为了证明自己！不再像没用的木偶玩具一样随意被一个个商家丢掉！我愿意在正向努力的道路上付出任何代价！”一道魔法射线朝我射去重重击打在我的右蹄上，痛的我跌倒侧翻在地。远处三叶贤者的法杖上冒着尚未熄灭的熏烟，“即使这样，你也愿意吗？”对方在考验自己，机不可失。这道魔法光束的力道相当于一个正常重量的小马往自己肚子打一次，自己猝不及防摔一个趔趄。“我愿意！来吧！欺负过我的，瞧不起我的都来吧！我不怕你们！”我不甘的朝三叶贤者大声叫喊，即使雷电声在空中回荡淹没我的任何声音。我刚站起身，又是一道光束猛地朝头顶打去。我伏身底下躲过光束，“即使这样？命运就不想让你成功，使用浑身解数击溃你的意志？你还愿意吗！”我的眉毛拧在一起。家里从小忽视自己，日灼又背叛誓言捷足先登离开自己身边；父母过来竟是在讨论这座城堡处在环境多么优越，丝毫不关心自己，那个风雪交加的暗夜，自己究竟是怎么挨过去的。我右蹄使劲往地里踩，任由泥巴脏了我的蹄子。“我愿意！否则我活的将不再有意义！你就算今天用魔法把我击倒，我爬也要追上你！”三叶贤者披上法袍，我头部的披风连接着一块黑鸦面具，“既然如此，你亲自送你到死亡边缘！”带上面具的三叶贤者用魔法权杖向我，快速发射一连串魔法光球，我纵使全力朝他奔跑，一边左躲右闪躲避魔法光球阻挠自己追求近在咫尺的理想代表者。轰的一声，一颗魔法光束在我纵身一跃，马上就要够到三叶贤者法袍衣角击中我的腹部，三叶贤者无疑不被我这种锲而不舍的顽强意志所打动，摘下面罩。我身体朝后倾仰天倒在绿地上，肚皮上下起伏呼吸着，尽可能保持意志清醒。三叶贤者缓步来到我侧身，伸出右蹄要扶我起来。我没有回应，只是在笑，完全张嘴大笑的那种。“导师，我会死吗？毕竟你用桃木法杖动手。”三叶贤者收回蹄子，微笑着回应，“有重要的小马不让你死，等你回归。”
“是啊，要是我在他们前面咽气，便宜他们了。导师，现在我能继续学习魔咒那另一半内容吗？”我的鬃毛完全伸展开摊在绿地上，末端也沾染上些许淤泥，三叶贤者只是用一种魔法在空气里直接点燃面具与法袍连接着的胶布，把面具贴在星光的脸上，缓缓起身，背对星光走到迷宫转角处，“问这张面具吧。”暴雨仍未停息，反而越下越大，我也是累了，我靠自己还真有点起不来。况且，我此刻享受和自然如此近距离贴合的时刻。“三叶贤者，我一定会在他们周围做好事，在我哥哥日灼面前施展学来的魔法，我要蜕变。你刚才对我用的什么法术，像是有皮鞭在抽我一样的感觉。” 三叶贤者用魔法帮我直起身，恢复温和语气对我嘱咐道，“音波法，疼痛感会在半小时后自行消失。相当于，你回去清洗好身子，换一身干净衣裳功夫。你来不来？”我马上跟上去，右蹄抖去沾染的泥土，紧紧地，握住三叶贤者的右蹄。至于我的父母，压根没观摩，下午就坐火车离开了此地。 特别署名：二十五年后，三叶贤者下落不明，我重回故地，雇佣几个劳工，把城堡改造成庄园，又在东边的草原上种上葡萄树，从此定居在这里。
星光熠熠长年累月在三叶贤者的严格要求上循序渐进的掌握了很多高端魔法，学习生涯很忙碌，三叶贤者又经常乘坐火车外出办事，提亚拉作为徒弟不得不挑起生活的重担协助三叶贤者的妻儿管理城堡。当星光熠熠闲下来的时候仍然不曾忘记抚养自己长大的父母，远在坎特洛特魔法学院进修的日灼哥哥，他们并没有抛弃自己，谁都不会无缘无故抛弃自己的孩子。星光的父母每年夏天会托邮差往她这里寄送零钱和生活用品。至少我清楚，她一直健康地成长，直到二十五岁。你若问我是谁，我就是三叶贤者，魔法大陆的首席大魔法师。
