Epilogue

Talon stood on the sand covered beach as he looked out at the waves. He felt a special connection to this place. He saw several pieces of rotting wood scattering the beach. He walked along and felt every single piece. He made his way along the beach stopping at a certain point. He stood there and lit a cigar he looked out onto the ocean for hours. He stayed in that one spot all through the night and into the morning. He didn't move because it hadn't felt right yet. He stood there and reminisced. This is where it all began, his career as a soldier for Equestria had begun here at this very spot.

A piece of paper caught his eyes. It was fluttering in the wind he dropped his cigar in the sand and walked over towards the piece of paper. He took it off of the branch and looked at it. this side was blank but the edge of the paper looked torn as if it had been ripped out of a book. That meant...

Talon flipped the page over and tears formed in his eyes. He couldn't help it; he was overwhelmed by the moment. Printed on this side of the paper was a single word.

Nails.
