Reminded me of Saddle Arabia, but…just different enough, I guess. So much fascinating history here, too–this place is ancient! Just look at the Hagia Sophia here; it started off as a Greek church….”
!e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/bulletwhite.gif! [politely raises a hoof. Twilight gets the hint and stops] “I’ll let you get back to the story, dear; don’t fret. But be honest with me: did we come here just to recuperate after our incident, or were you curious if you could get a wish or two out of the humans?” [she smirks]
!e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/bulletpurple.gif! [blushes a little, but quickly recovers] “Heh, maybe at least one wish…” [she also smirks, tapping her chin mischievously]
!e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/bulletwhite.gif! “Well then, since our little Hagia Sophia is a museum nowadays, and quite the tourist magnet…why don’t we ask the crowds on their way out? Some genies in an ancient desert city…it should make their trips more ‘authentic’, don’t you think?”
!e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/bulletpurple.gif! “Heh heh heh… Not a bad idea, Rarity. Glad you decided to come with me.”
