    Sweet another of my fav fics is here! I loved this one ever since I first read it on EqD. Thank you for add it to FiMFiction. I appreciate any story that shows Celestia in a good light and to expand on her character.

    This needs to be made into an episode. Seriously, in season three, there needs to be this, made into an episode. We need at least one Celestia-centered episode, and this is the best one I've ever seen.

    This reminds me of the little girl who was forgotten

    She was forgotten by everyone (even the postman).

    Im not saying Celestia was forgotten its just that this story has a certain vibe

    that reminded me of it.

    The only difference here is that Celestia chose to find some

    solace a different way than the little girl.

    Amazing! I've been waiting for a story like this, because you can clearly see in several episodes that Princess Celestia is often uncomfortable with the royal treatment.
