I wish to tell you this is person, I really do, but I feel I cannot stay here any longer. Spike and I are leaving to the countries south of Equestria. Perhaps we will be able to bring peace and harmony to the ponies there. This will be my last letter to you, my mentor, but I have so much to say. I don't even know where to begin. I suppose it started after my coronation, so maybe I should tell you that first...

When Twilight poses this question, Luna has an instant response, but Celestia stays quiet.

The princesses discuss this over tea.

The war with Sombra is finally done. The ponies have won.

The combatants are invited to a big party. It's basically just a distraction from the heartache the war left. Of course, Pinkie Pie, Maud Pie, and Rainbow Dash all go to it. After all, the three of them are three fast friends who really helped the ponies destroy Sombra.

Both Pinkie Pie and Rainbow are now in relationships. Pinkie Pie even has two daughters.

At the party ponies suddenly start to share war stories and then Maud Pie shares one of her own stories.

Applejack has never missed a meal on purpose before, let alone a Pie Day dinner – that glorious day of the week serving Granny's famed hot, fresh apple pie. So why was Applejack absent at the dining table today, of all days? Little does the rest of the family know, Applejack's a lot closer than they think – she's in her bedroom, nervously pacing around and building up the courage to perform the single hardest thing she's ever done.

What is this herculean task that not even Applejack can overcome?

Being honest…
