Really.

Rainbow Dash finds out that Twilight's mother is the real identity of Silky Dusk, the author of the Daring Do books.

As everyone slowly drifts apart, Dash will have to put in the effort if she wants to keep her friends together.

One night, just like that, Celestia realizes she's going to die in less than twenty-four hours.
