*Cancelled, pending potential future rewrite*
Look, you know as well as I do what's going to happen soon. But just in case I don't make it out alive, you have to know the whole story.
The wedding was a disaster. Chrysalis had taken over. We Elements were defeated, and scattered across Equestria. Princess Celestia fell in battle to Chrysalis, possibly forever damaging her magical prowess. Likewise, Luna was defeated, leading the first revolution. It lasted a grand total of ten minutes. Shining Armor was held hostage by Chrysalis, preventing Cadence from doing anything, even if she had the energy. She... Shining is no longer in any danger.
I miss him so much..
If everything goes as planned, tomorrow it will all be made right.
On the off chance that it isn't, take this journal. It chronicles every single painstaking step I took to get us to this point. If we fail, ponies need something to hope for. Maybe our story will inspire others to take up arms and liberate this pathetic excuse for a nation.
Hopefully, Equestria can rise again.
