Talk:To Where and Back Again - Part 1/@comment-10390252-20160914145335

So, I've been thinking about this. Starlight's little ad-hoc team of adventurers need to be ponies that she knows or it would make no narrative sense. I'm going to stick out my neck here but I suspect that it will be:


 * Trixie or Sunburst


 * Double Diamond


 * Night Glider


 * Party Favour


 * Sugar Belle

When you think about it, it makes sense. Most secondary characters are specific to the Mane Six's adventures and Starlight probably won't know them well enough to think to look for them, let alone feel confident enough to ask them to accompany her on an open-ended suicide mission against some  Cthonic Creature of Doom or the Dark Lord Himself. On the other hand, this group are her friends; the Our Town quartet would trust her leadership as being at least mostly sane under most circumstances (as well as believing in her reformation) and Trixie would trust her magic implicitly after the events in No Second Prances.
