Quick update-refresh-whatever, wastelanders....
I've decided I wanted to add something else to the tops of the chapters.
For those who do not want to go through the previous entries again, please see the below. This is what has been shared so far.
My Dearest Subjects, here and abroad.
I never wanted to be revered. That was never my goal.
I never wanted to be seen as a ruler nor a conqueror of lands. I have only ever wanted ponies, creatures of all Equestria, to live without fear and to find their purposes in these lands and across our seas.
As I speak to you now, I am aware that for most, I am still your Princess. For others, I am your traitor, and for some sorrowful many souls, I am your enemy. I never wished to be any of these things. I only ever wished to be a teacher.However, in this fateful hour, perhaps the most fateful hour of our entire history, I have decided that the time has come where I cannot be any of what you see me as. I cannot maintain a veil on my heart and soul as I have for so long. I must concede that I am not the mare to take you into this next chapter of our lives.
I realise how terrifying a prospect that is and believe me when I say that it is not one made lightly. I promise you, however, that it was one made out of love, respect and care for every one of you, no matter your opinion of me. I have every confidence that my sister, aided by my faithful student, Twilight Sparkle, and her friends, will now carry out my responsibilities with more capability than I have recently been able to.
Before I abdicate my throne, I wanted to speak with you one last time to offer some sense of hope for the future of all beings, not just pony kind. In the past, we were all capable of the desire to live with and help each and every one, no matter what lay on their fur or body and no matter what they called themselves. I wish and dream that one day those ideals return to us.
~From The Last Great Speech of Princess Celestia
Plenty more to come...
Thank you again for reading up to this moment. Ask me anything.
If this is when you stop reading, goodbye and safe travels.
If you're still strapped in for the ride, see you in the next chapter.
Life's a happy song, when there's someone by your side to sing along!
All good things,
Duskhoof
