Ash Tray

Once upon a time Ash lived with his mother who worked very hard, and wanted nothing more than to provide enough for Ash so he did not have to live a life like hers, where he must work often. As much as Ash's mother could, inbetween working on the farms in Donkey Territory, she would train for Ash to unlock his magical ability. Ash, for a long time doubted himself and if he even had any magic. That was until one day while training with his mother after she was done working on the farms in Donkey Territtory, and he unlocked his magical ability to heat up his hooves to extreame temperatures. Over time Ash grows up to work alongside his mother, who even introduces him to the occassional after work smoke session. Ash and his mother are very close. One night, Ash is smoking alone when he drops what he is smoking and it starts a small fire. He attempts to stomp it out, but due to his magic the fire worsens and spreads to the farms in Donkey Territtory. Luckily, Ash woke his mother up from sleeping and together they put out the fires and flames. The following morning Ash's mother takes the blame for the damage. Afterwards, Ash's mother tells him he needs to leave home and work for a better life. If not, he will be treated differently like her due to the damage. So Ash had to leave his family behind in search for a better life.

When Ash and Summer met, they both were alone after being with family for so long. Then they decided to work together to better Donkey Territory using their own magical abilities combined. With their magic combined, they were able to create automatic farms, carts, and railroads. Ash and Summer are having fun together, building new machinery and discovering new things. But over time Ash starts to keep an eye out for that "better life" he has always wanted, looking for somewhere to settle and build this life. Summer feeds off adventure, and cannot imagine stopping for any reason. Over time, this machinery quickly took over Donkey Territory and Donkey Territory was quickly running out of room for more machinery. Then, Summer went to Ash with the idea to destroy historical sites in Donkey Territory to make room for more machinery. Ash strongly disagrees with this idea, so the issue is brought to Swirl; the leader of Donkey Territory. Swirl decides to instead expand into Pegasus Territory, so he puts Ash and Summer to work. He had them build a giant drilling machine to attack Pegasus Territory with. Summer is pleased, so she happily works on the giant drilling machine. Ash is still in disagreement with Summer, and wants to quit. Summer and Swirl won't allow it, so while building the giant drilling machine Ash removes a crucuial piece to the machine and hides it. When the time comes for Donkey Territory to attack Pegasus Territory, eveything starts off according to Swirl's plan. Pegasus Territory is caught off guard, unprepared, and loosing. That was until Mika Wish swoops into battle and attempts to destroy the giant drilling machine. Yet it trucked on, leaving a path of destruction. Suddenly, the giant drilling machine broke down, bystanders believing Mika Wish was the cause. Although Donkey Territory returned home with a loss, Summer came to Swirl with a new idea, to expand downward; underground. Swirl likes Summer and her idea, so he decides to step down from leader of Donkey Territory. Summer, now leader, begins her plan. Then one day Summer finds the crucial missing piece to the giant drilling machine, and confronts Ash. Ash admits to the truth, explaining he never wanted to be a part of something so complex. Summer exiles Ash from Donkey Territory.
