You tell Crystal Charm that it's been good to see her again, and that you'll have to catch up with her once your quest is over.

Crystal Charm: "I like the sound of that. Until then, see you around!"

You bid farewell to the unicorn, and continue to follow the road north to your house. On the way there, you ask Moonflower when would be the best time to visit the Oracle and complete her trial. After all, you wouldn't want to pick a time when everyone is asleep.

Moonflower: "Oooh, I dunno! Last time, she summoned us durin' the day, right? I think she already knows when we're gonna show up, even if we don't."

You nod. Considering this, you figure that you are not in a rush. But on the other hoof, you would rather not carry a powerful artifact around much longer than you have to.

As your house comes into view, you put that thought aside. Per Crystal Charm's advice, you walk up to your mailbox first, and open it to reveal a colourful pamphlet inside. The pamphlet reads:

"Every year, on the 21st of Sextilis, Hoofington comes together to celebrate the beginning of fall, and the founding of our little town. This event is known as the Autumn Festival!

On the day of the festival, the market will become a hub where a list of all the activities — including a free feast — can be found. The opening and ending ceremonies will also take place there at 09:00 and 21:00 respectively.

Everypony is welcome to join in the festivities, and we hope to see you there as well! —Mayor Hoofingold"

Apple Basket: "So that's what this Autumn Festival you mentioned is about. It sure sounds real nice!"

Moonflower: "Yuh uh!"

You agree, and after walking over the stepping stones up to your door, you enter your house, and invite your friends inside. As expected, you find the interior just as you left it.

You take a moment to give a quick tour of the place to Apple Basket. Then, you open your sidereal bag, and begin to think about how to manage your items.
