      I liked it. The writing was good and followable but... still, I don't know. It just seemed too... straight forward, if that makes sense.

      If it wasn't 4am, I would be reading this already. Because Zecora is the best pony. And she needs so many more fics >:

      Ohhhh backstory! I really liked this! a couple rough to read sentences in the beginning, but after that it was full of epic win! I really like the worldbuilding done with the Zebras. Great to see some Zecora fic!

      *grins* That's a good Zecora fic, there. I like that you show off a tribal culture without looking down on it, and explain a little of why someone so different is living near Ponyville.

      Trixie or Lyra or whoever may be best pony, but you can never have enough Zecora.

      I agree with those who say Zecora doesn't get enough love... African ponies are still ponies!

      Needs more Zecora, the stories around here indeed.

      Very good (back)story. Got me smiling.

      I... well. I just like this story. And I like Zecora. What's not to like? :)

      YAY! Zecora! We love Zecora, and wish to see more of her.

      This was very well done, and quite honestly, I loved it. It was very pleasant, a good quick read.

      Many thanks to the author!

      Wow, this story was done so well! i really liked the backstory aspects! Did you research anything specific? It feels researched.

      Much Zecora love here. It's awesome!

      I did do a little bit of research, primarily for accuracy of names as well as flora.

      So, I was wondering.. would anypony be interested in another Zecora story, chronicling her first day in the Everfree Forest?

      Oh! Yes! This one was very well done! I actually teared up a few times. From joy of course. ;)

      Well done, TheMechanic. You touched on a few things with Zecora's life that I think a lot of people would like to have known. Such an interesting character development too.
      I can tell a lot of thought went into it.

      Thank you for writing this; there needs to be more Zecora appreciation, and your take on her background was just excellent.

      A good 'explanation' of Zecora with some very interesting rituals and traditions thrown in. I felt like the writing had issues, though ("it was tears of joy"?), and overall it wasn't much of a story, just a character sketch.

      Really interesting story. I finally have an explanation for Zecora speaking in rhymes, canon or not.
