Celestia has a new assignment for me. Am I really to welcome a wolf to Ponyville? I asked if I should panic, seeing as to how I have no books on the subject. She simply laughed and told me that I need not to worry, as this wolf will cause no harm or be of any trouble to any pony. This calmed me down only for a mere seconds as a new question popped up:
"Who is this Wolf?"
Celestia simply answered a name.
"Kodokuna?"
With a nod, she began to explain that this wolf has gone through hardships, as his pack abandoned him long ago. Seeing him alone in the Everfree Forest made her realize that maybe a little friendship can turn his life around.
Was that truly it? To simply befriend an awkward wolf? I asked the royal Princess if there was anything more to it, but she quickly shook her head. As I took my leave, the Princess gave me a strange warning. Did her voice just quiver? Before I could turn around, the doors magically closed shut.
"How did it go with the Princess, Twilight?"
"Something's up Spike." And I left it at that. Spike tried to inquire more about it, but the only thing he received was silence. As we took the train back to Ponyville, I thought hard about not only what Celestia said, but as to how she said it with fear.
Although I can't prove it, I know the Princess was lying about there not being more to this wolf.
Her Warning? Never forget about the Blood Diamonds.
Maybe there's something about these 'Blood Diamonds' in one of my books that I could possibly connect it to this wolf I'm supposed to welcome. In the meanwhile, I must first visit Pinkie Pie. She is after all the best party planner in all of Equestria.
