He was tending to his cattle before retiring for the night while the rest of Ponyville was preparing to sleep. "That'll just about do it." The farmer beams a smile to his animals. They were his pride and joy. He'd worked so hard his entire life to raise them, and provide dairy products for the rest of Equestria. He didn't know what he would do if he ever lost it all.
The farmer lights some fires in specially made fire pits to keep the barn warm for the animals. It was supposed to be very cold tonight. As the farmer locks up his barn, and turns to head to his house he takes a moment to admire the moon, and how bright it was tonight. His awe turns into shock as the silhouette of a winged figure flies across the sky in front of the moon. It lands in a patch of woods near his barn. The farmer didn't get a good look at the figure, but he knows one thing for sure. Those were not pegasus wings.
Taking a lantern from the barn the farmer carefully moves to investigate. He can hear rustling coming from the trees. "Wh-who's there!? Show yourself!" The farmer lif.ts his lantern to get a better look. The figure obliges, and steps out of the brush. It has the wings of a dragon, and brown scales covering it's body, but it has the horn of a unicorn. For a moment he's frozen in fear, and doesn't react to the brown glow that briefly appears around the figure's horn. The figure opens it's mouth, and he can see a brown glow inside. "S-stay back! I'm warning you!" A substance begins to form in the figure's mouth. "Wait! NO! DON'T! PLEASE!" The farmer begs as he backs away. He's able to utter a second of a scream before he's cut off by a loud sound. The roar of a dragon.

It was hard work, but he knew is magic could be put to good use here. After all, where else would they find someone who could summon, and control rock?
Most days Nar was out and about helping where he was needed. Clearing debris, helping construction efforts, and distributing supplies. Today was different. Nar helped clear some remaining rubble for a few hours in the early morning before seeming to disappear towards the afternoon. When he returns later that evening he's far more quiet, and despondent than he had been since he arrived in the city. Regardless he returns to helping the reconstruction effort.

Why he never had to study it like the other wizards. Why that zebra had been so afraid of him. He had learned what it meant to be a sorcerer. Sorcerers didn't need to learn their magic like wizards, borrow it like warlocks, or be granted it by some sort of god or goddess like a paladin, or cleric. He was born with an innate ability to cast magic. All unicorns were sensitive to magic, but as far as Nar knew it was rare for a unicorn to be able to cast magic from birth.
As for why the zebra was so scared? It was because of why he was a sorcerer. Unlike those he knew back in his homeland who just happened to be born with a sort of wild magic, Nar's magic came from a bloodline. He was the descendant of a dragon. Not an Equestrian one either. His descendant was from his homeland. One that likely ravaged the country for centuries before finally perishing.
Every draconic sorcerer in his country's history had allowed their power to corrupt them. To unleash their primal instinct to destroy. Nar wasn't going to let that happen. He would control his power, not the other way around. Nar vowed to himself that he would practice, and learn to harness his power safely, without harming others unintentionally. He's starting that practice tonight as he pours over books and tomes he's borrowed from the Ponyville library. Currently he's sitting in the library with a stack of books on the desk next to him. He's reading quite intently for someone who hates studying.

Two stallions stand in the middle car of Stronghoof Freight Co train no2 both are armed with slashing weapons. "Can't wait for this payday. No idea what those guys in Vanhoover want with all this crap, but it must be important if they want this crap overnight." Says one of the stallions. "Fuck yeah man. We're gonna be swimmin' in bits after this. Just have to make it through Ponyville and we'll be in the clear." The other agrees with a nod. "Good thing we kept the crew eh?"
THUD. The sound comes from above the two stallions. "Woah! What the hell was that?" Says one. "I dunno man. I'll go check it out." The other draws a sword as he goes to leave the car from the south door. As he opens the door something grabs his shirt. The other stallion watches in horror as his friend is tossed off of the train by an unknown force. "OH SHIT! I GOTTA-!" He turns to run, and alert his boss only for something hard to hit his back legs, and trip him. He hit's the floor of the train car, and turns to see what had tripped him.
There's a stallion standing in the aisle looking down at him. He appears to be wearing a straw hat, and an open coat. "Stealing isn't nice you know. The owners of this train aren't very happy about you taking their train, cargo and it's crew. How's about you just give it back to 'em, and I don't have to break your bones." This stallion was being oddly nice for having just thrown someone off of a train. "H-hell no! You're not going to ruin this for us!" The bandit screams while attempting to throw his weapon. It sails past the stallion in the aisle, and clatters onto the ground behind him. "So. We're going to do this the hard way then." The stallion grins. His horn glows a light brown. This train was going to stop one way, or another.

He'd heard of a zebra who lived in the Everfree Forest who might be able to help him, so that's where he's headed this evening.
It had taken him quite some time to find the zebra's hut, but once he did he gives a knock on the side near the entrance to alert whoever might be inside to his presence. After a second a zebra pokes her head out of the hut. "Hello-?" She stops in the middle of her sentence to look up to the tall stallion standing outside her hut. "Hey. I'm sorry to bother you, but I've been experiencing some strange stuff lately, and someone in Ponyville told me you might be able to help me." Nar was just a little nervous. He wasn't sure if the zebra would appreciate someone showing up to her hut this late. The zebra simply gestures with her hoof. "Then come inside, and the cause of your troubles we shall find."
Entering the hut Nar's nose was assaulted with all sorts of smells. In the middle of the hut lays a cauldron, currently not in use. The zebra spends a few minutes gathering ingredients, and putting them into her cauldron. After lighting a fire underneath it she grabs a small knife, and turns to Nar. "A drop of blood it needs, then it will show what it sees." He extends his hoof, and the Zebra guides it over the now boiling mixture in the cauldron. She pricks his hoof, and a drop of blood falls into the cauldron. There's a sizzle, and the zebra looks inside.
Nar looks into the cauldron himself as the zebra backs away from the cauldron. He only gets a glimpse of what the mixture had made. The head of a dragon, and not an Equestrian one. One from his home country. The tip of a spear prods his nose. "Begone from my hut sorcerer! Your tainted blood be not welcome here!" Instead of asking questions that would likely anger the zebra, he decides to take her threat at face value, and slowly backs out of the hut. Now armed with this new knowledge Nar heads back to his shack. Now he had new questions that needed answers.

He isn't sure how friendship works in Equestria other than the fact that Equestrians have a princess dedicated to it. Equestrian's liked sweets right? Well, maybe that's how he'd make some friends.
First step, buy some sweets from a store. It took him a while but eventually Nar finds a place that sells sweets. He decides to buy 4 cupcakes. Second step. Give them out, and make friends. This part appears to be in progress, as Nar is currently aimlessly wandering Equestria with a box of cupcakes in his magical grasp. He doesn't understand why everyone just looks at the cupcakes and keeps walking. Doesn't anyone want free cupcakes? And more importantly, a big stronk mage fren?

This 'technology' stuff was weird. And why in the world does the place always have some evil guy or gal trying to take over the country or something? The worst that happened back where he came from were dragon attacks. Though the affected village/town/city typically was not left standing afterwards.
He walks into Ponyville eager to find a job to take his mind off of the things he's been hearing. The first thing he notices is an upset mare staring at a large pile of various items sitting in front of her. He decides to approach, and as he does so he speaks. "Ava'yorn! Tir wux rigluin letoclo mrith creolnali?" The mare turns around with a rather confused look on her face. "Uh... Excuse me?" Nar gives a small nod in return. "Si jahus torir sjek wux rigluina letoclo." He can see the mare slowly becoming quite uncomfortable. "I- I can't understand you." Now this confused Nar. He was speaking perfect Equestrian wasn't he? Surely she could understand him if she was also speaking Equestrian. Before he's able to speak again the mare excuses herself, and hurries off.
For the rest of the evening Nar tries, and fails to find a job to take on. Every time he tried to talk to somone they couldn't understand him. He didn't know why either. He was speaking the language they spoke. Did everyone just decided to pull a prank on him all at once?

It means he's not able to go out on jobs, and he's forced to stay at home to rest. Unlike the Equestrians in ponyville Nar didn't have potions and tinctures to alleviate his symptoms. The mage lies on his old, rickety bed staring up at the sky through his complimentary skylight. "This sucks." He turns his head to see Charlie sitting on his table nearby. It's as if she was watching over him. "Don't worry Charlie. I'll get better soon."

With all the things that had been happening recently he needed to be on watch more often. At the moment Nar is patrolling the interior of Flim Flam Co's Las Pegasus location. He's already completed a few loops of the facility, and is continuing on his patrol route in silence.
