Letters from an Evil Empress

Awwwww, and we Really Wanted to Take Down a Dragon...

Dear Twilight Sparkle,
 
Huh. You actually beat us to it. And, here I thought you might actually not be up for the challenge.
 
Nightmare and I had actually developed a plan, one we thought would be pretty foal proof! And, fun! Villainously fun, even~
 
First, my dear sister would go into the cave, with me sneaking in from behind, using a potion I got from a certain friend of mine. Then, she would start flirting with my Ex, telling him that he’s pretty hot, and they would make an excellent royal couple together. Well, I know for a fact that when Oregano’s ego flares up, he tends to ignore most of reality, so, I would move in closer, and start casting a record spell. After he puffed himself up enough, Nightmare would then start asking about the Dragon Lord, who Oregano would probably diss quite a bit.
 
Well, I know Dragon Lord Torch. I know him quite a bit, actually. We’re...Actually still pretty close, hehehe…~
 
But, anyway, once we had both managed to get out of the cave—Me sneaking out, and Nightmare being let out by her so-called ‘ally’—I would then fly to the Dragon Lord, telling him about what we did, and then playing the recording. And, after that, well, it would be pretty well taken care of. Oregano would either go to Torch, and get smashed, or, Torch would send other dragons to drag him back, and then he would get smashed.
 
...Did I say in my previous letter that all Adult Dragons were jerks? Cause, Torch is clearly the exception. Rawwwrrr~
 
Sure, the way he talks might be odd, but, he takes absolutely no crap whatsoever.
 
And, that is absolutely the best quality to have in a dragon lord, especially one with whom you’re allied.
 
Although...His daughter is pretty annoying. Last time I talked with Torch, she glared at me, and called me a pretty pony.
 
I called her a Feldspar Eater, and, Torch let out lots of great big laughs, like it was the funniest thing he ever heard. She probably still hates me, but, she probably also knows better than to mess with me.
 
Although, I think she could change her mind about ponykind, given the right set of circumstances. HMmmmmmm...Would you, uh- Could you ask Spike if he’d be interested in being Dragon Lord in the future?
 
Anyway, back to the subject, I clearly got off track.
 
Sounds like you girls did a pretty good job. An amazing job, actually. Oh, sure, Nightmare and I would have liked to give our plan a try. Probably would have eliminated Oregano permanently, but, eh, oh well, as long as he doesn’t mess with us anymore.
 
...Still, I can just imagine him get kicked in the snout by Fluttershy. Or, heck, maybe she even brought him down to the level of a simpering puppy!
 
...AHAHaahaaha, AHAHAHAHAHAH!
 
Snrk, sorry, couldn’t help myself, Fluttershy acting all furious and making my ex leave a puddle is probably one of the funniest things I’ve ever imagined, even compared to you playing Mama to a giant star bear.
 
Ah, well, I guess she probably won’t need any help from Iron Will at this point. She can probably handle herself from now on, and isn’t going to let anypony stand in her way.
 
...Then again, it could have just been a fluke. And, even if it wasn’t, my minotaur friend could probably help her step up her technique a whooole lot more.
 
So, yeah, he’ll be stopping by eventually, no doubt about it.
 
Also, I hope you learned a thing or two from Fluttershy this time. You really need to step up your game in Ponyville. And, if not- Well, then, we might have to have a talk that might not be so fun for either of us.
 
...Well, maybe a little fun for me.
 
Don’t screw up,
 
Empress Daybreaker

P.S.: Before Oregano tries to take his full collection with him, try and find a crown for me. A one with a white, fuzzy base, that has purple arrow patterns on said base, and small purple orbs on the tips. I was going to wear it for a future special occasion, but, he stole it from me. I want it back.
 
Okay, Nightmare, I know we didn’t get to pull off the plan, and I know you’re probably upset, and-
 
...Are those Red Velvet?
 
Snf, Snf!
 
...Huh. No poison, and they actually smell delicious.
 
Yeah, it is more fun to be evil against dumb nobles and stupid idiots than each other.

...Fiiineee, you can have half of the cupcakes, but, you have to beat me in hoof wrestling to get any more. One per cupcake, and, each time you lose, you have to recite one of Starswirl’s more boring caution speeches. Think you’re up for it?
 
Good~
