You had no backup plan. I'm sure of that. One of my changelings arrived just in time to see five of those mares battered and bruised and the sixth in a place that, with a dragon of my temperament, would have made her a quick snack.
I'm working with you for my own sake, Celestia. We need the Elements. Both of us. Sombra's coming back and whatever little tricks you used to get rid of him last time won't be enough—and if he overcomes that pitiful herd of half-wits you call a guard force, how am I supposed to sustain my changelings?
Power of friendship, intra-pony bonds, blah, blah, blah, yes, yes, I get that. But you can't just rely on that! Not everything goes according to your schemes! Hasn't the trouble I've been causing for you already taught you that lesson?
If you're not going to prepare for these things properly, I'll be operating my own fallback plans. Those mares are already quite happy with their new friend for helping them get down off the mountain, you know.
God, now i want to see how that all went down exactly.
I'm with chrysalis on this one, dragon-baiting is a chancy prospect at the best of times, certainly not something to play games with.
Someone make this a oneshot. What Chrisyi is talking about.

S1E7, "Dragonshy" (with a small addition at the end that will be mentioned more elsewhere).

The ‘ling that help them down not the main portion of it. Anyone thats watched the episode knows what happened.
And I will neither confirm nor deny if I have watched it.
I can't wait for when Chryssie finally reveals herself to Twilight. As long as Chrysalis doesn't mess around with Twilight's brother in this continuity, I imagine Twilight might at least hear her out.

Honestly, I wanted to say that Celestia obviously had a back-up plan... But this is Canon Celestia, isn't it? The same one that can't act to save her life despite being a politician for more than a millennium?

This is meant to be at least canon-adjacent, so pretty much nobody is all that competent... including Chryssy's own changelings, as will be shown in the next letter.
Now I got more questions.

Actually this explains the first two notes perfectly.
Chrissy is ten billion percent correct!

Chrysalis seems to be waaay more reasonable than Celestia

Yea, she needed to be the outside attacking force, else the ponies will grow full-on complacent
