Princess Luna’s Foreword
Since our return from banishment we have had the sincere pleasure to encounter hundreds of ponies who have each become, to varying degrees, our friends. One of these ponies, who we would define as a semi-reliable acquaintance, is the “Discordian Detective” Time Turner.
A mundane appearing earth pony, Time Turner possesses an unusual philosophy and view of the world around him. Despite our initial reservations we have found that Time Turner has a surprising habit of returning results seemingly out of a mixture of skill and dumb luck.
Over the last few decades we have personally requested Time Turner’s services on several occasions. Our working relationship eventually yielded permission for us to compile his collected case notes for public distribution.
This record takes place two years before our release from the nightmare and consists of Time Turner’s earlier dealings with the criminal cartel known as the Marefia. The writing compiled within has been drawn primarily from Time Turner’s records and remains in its original form. Be aware that Time Turner has displayed a tendency to bend the truth and occasionally fabricate sections of these records.
While our corrections to the record itself have been kept to a minimum we have also included our own notes when Time Turner’s own explanation is lacking. Notes on a subject will be marked and then entered for easy reading at the end of each chapter.
We shall indicate a note thusly (1).
Yours in good faith
Princess Luna
Guardian of the Moon and Princess of the Night
