“No!” Dust raised a hoof. She wasn’t sure how the princess could think that, given the way she’d just acted. But I guess it makes sense she would think the world revolves around her. “My daughter Lucky got a little overzealous with her exploring again. I thought she had more sense than to involve anypony else, but…” She sighed, thinking very carefully about what she would say next. The princess sounded quite convinced about what she was saying. She shouldn’t ruin Lucky’s hard work in that regard, and make it even more difficult for them. If Princess Cadance, or worse Celestia herself got even an inkling the youngest princess had been the victim of anything, no force on Equestria or beyond it would stop them from being hunted down.
