Has nothing to do with familiarity with in-universe fiction.

[[spoiler:She turned out to be exactly right, though they still got the jump on her.]]

Upon learning about the Eternal Flower, a legendary flower capable of granting immortality to those who drink its nectar, Daring Do goes to a banquet held by the Equestrian Botanical Society. She quickly learns, however, that she's not the only one searching for it. Her uncle Gallant True, the pony who influenced her life as an adventurer, has been searching for it for years and has gone missing. On top of that, Ahuizotl is searching for the flower too, eager to gain immortality for himself. With the chance to stop Ahuizotl and see her uncle once more, this is one adventure Daring Do cannot pass up.
