- >Day Light in Dust Valley.
- >You are Little Light.
- >The most lovable, kindest, happiest, best moth in all of Dust Valley Central.
- >And it's time to run off and meet the newest addition to the village: Lamp.
- >From what Squeak has told you, she just moved from Dust Valley East.
- >She said Lamp makes lampshades for ponies, like some kind of weird fashion thing, and she wanted to get a shop started up around here.
- >As you run upstairs from Squeak's basement, she stops you.
- >"Squeak?"
- "I'm going to meet Lamp."
- >"Squeak!"
- "I'll be careful! It's not like we have anything to worry about."
- >"Squeak."
- "I meant the dragons. You know Virgo and the rest of the hunters are keeping us safe from anything that breaks past them.
- >Squeak just grumbles as you leave the house.
- >She's too worried about you.
- >It's not like there's anything to actually worry about.
- >No one in Dust Valley does anything bad.
- >Everyone is nice to one another, and they all work in harmony.
- >As you trot through the village, you wave to every moth you pass.
- >All of them.
- >Especially Butterscotch.
- >She's the nicest.
- >Not Hexferry though.
- >She's mean.
- >Everytime you wave at her, she blushes and calls you something like "baklava."
- >It's weird.
- >"Hey, kid! Where're you going?"
- >You stop in your tracks.
- "To meet Lamp!"
- >Virgo trots up to you and laughs casually.
- >"Ah, she's nothin' special. Cute as a button, but not my type, surprisingly."
- "I thought everyone was your type."
- >"Nah, my type's more Hexferry, or Goldie, or Caramel."
- "Or Squeak?"
- >"Or Squeak."
- >The corners of your mouth turn up into a smile.
- >Virgo stops acting cool and glares at you.
- >"No. You stop that. Both of you stop that."
- "But she really likes you!"
- >"I don't do the whole 'crushing stallions' heads like watermelons' thing she's so into."
- "She just does that to show off for you!"
- >He shoots you another dirty look before walking away.
- >Continuing on your way, you arrive at the Dust Bin.
- >Squeak doesn't normally let you hang out in there, but today is different.
- >Lamp is there.
- >You barge through the front door with a large smile on your face.
- >As everyone turns to look at you, you immediately start looking for Lamp.
- >She is not hard to find.
- >After all, she is the only moth in the bin that is glowing.
- >Literally glowing.
- >She turns to look at you and pulls a string that hangs from her lampshade hat.
- >The light turns off.
- >She hops off of her barstool and approaches you.
- >The two of you stand in the middle of the open floor.
- >Without a word, she looks you over, tilts her head, and sucks her teeth.
- >She sits on her haunches and reaches up to take her lampshade off.
- >She places it on your head and pulls the string.
- >You light up.
- >"Perfect."
- "I think it's perfect too! My name's Little Light, I'm so excited to meet you, and -"
- >She places a hoof over your mouth.
- >"Lamp. Shh."
- >She smiles.
- >You smile.
- >It was love at first light.
