“Are you sure he was here?”
“Yes, sister. A guard by the name of Silver Wing reported seeing him in the Canterlot Market this morning.”
“If what you say is true, then we can’t delay, Luna.” Celestia punctuated her remark by opening the doors leading to the main hallway and quickly trotting towards an adjacent corridor. It didn’t take her long to reach her destination. A golden set of doors that hadn’t been opened in nearly five years. “What I am about to show you must never leave this room, is that understood?”

“But why are you showing me, sister? We require no help.”
“I thought the same was true, Luna, until this morning. One of our scouts returned with a grave message.”
“What was the message?”
Celestia slammed her hoof own on the button, then turned back to the machine and placed it in its spot. “The changelings are invading…”
