* [[Sure Why Not]]: At the conclusion of the story, the Manes get an achievement for completing the dungeon, but the author accidentally forgot to show Dash getting it too. When this was brought to the author's attention, he added an epilogue where Dash [[Deep-Immersion Gaming|petitions a GM for it.]]

This story pulls absolutely no punches in detailing that Applejack (and Dash when necessary) are getting skin burned off with magic, swarmed by venomous flesh-eating insects, ribs smashed and limbs dislocated several times in the space of a minute, impaled a few times, and generally getting the ''ever-loving horseapples'' beaten out of them. Continually. And yet...
