Did she understand what I said? Or, did she just recognize Winter's name? Maybe a little bit of both? I questioned, but eventually moved on from the questions. We had to get a move on!

....The last thought that I thought of before returning to the group conversation was, 'I ship it.' Referring to Winter and Athena.

"Alright everyone, are you ready to get out of here and continue our journey?" I asked them, and I was met with the same basic response in all kinds of noises.

"I take that as a yes... Well then, we better get going. Follow me!" I said, leading the way, running on the rocky pieces below me. I could hear a cluster of paws in the back of me, and I could hear wind flowing next to me, which was Athena and Nook.

After a short while, we escaped from the building once known as, "Torch's Library." Once we exited, I paused for a moment, and I looked back at the building. The building was really damaged.... I couldn't believe that this building was actually a library... And yet, I had to, because it was true.

I looked over to Nook, whom was still levitating, and they looked hopeful. Nook sighed, and looked back at the place with warm eyes.

"I will miss this place, but it's better to move on instead of letting the weight of the past hold you down from the future. I must close this chapter of my life, and move on. Though, I will never forget it." Nook said, quietly. They weren't really talking to anyone, just saying their thoughts aloud.

I was glad that Nook could move on from their past, unlike some ponies and creatures. I understood it was really hard for everyone, no matter you species. It was for me.
