Dear Azure,
This will be my final entry. I've been in Equestria for a year now. And I can hardly believe how far I've come. When this all started, I was in a hospital bed at Ponyville General, I met the Princesses and the Elements of Harmony, I went to the Grand Galloping Gala and found the love of my life, and now I'm married...and a mother! Astral and I were married during the Summer Sun Celebration, Princess Cadence officiated the marriage. There was some opposition to our union, mainly by other ponies who found it strange, but nopony complained when the Princesses found no problems with it. I wore a white slimming asymmetrical dress with gold trimming (made by my bridesmaids, Rarity and Sparkle Dust) and the wedding was held in the Canterlot Gardens. As Princess Luna lowered the moon and Princess Celestia raised the sun, Cadence declared us Stallion and Wife. Princess Twilight performed her version of a Sonic Rainboom, only it was in the shape of her Cutie Mark. That new day was once huge party, courtesy of Pinkie Pie. Music, sweets, confetti, and laughter filled the air. Even Discord showed up, causing some mischief as well, but nothing too terrible.
Astral and I went to one of the foreign island territories for our honeymoon. We spent everyday simply enjoying each other's company, playing on the beach, exploring, and...yes...we had sex. It felt exactly how I remembered from my dream, but a bit more painful since I was a virgin. As I expected, there was no way I could get pregnant. So we adopted Unicorn twins, a colt and a filly. The filly was snow white with a black muzzle, mane, tail and hooves. The colt was just like his sister but the colors were reversed. They're the most perfect children a mother could ever want. We named them Radiant Rose and Dawn Gust. I hear from their teacher that they get teased in school for having me as their mother, but they don't let it bother them.
In a few days we'll be celebrating time as a family. But even with my new family, I haven't forgotten my old family. I've often thought of them and wondered how they might be doing. I've thought of calling them and telling them I was alive and that I've found my home. But then it would give them hope that they could find me. I don't want to cause them pain but they need some form of closure. That and my phone doesn't work here. No signal.
A final goodbye. And that's what I'm going to give them. I don't know if the Princesses can send it back to my world...I don't even know if they might get it...or if they will let me go. But anything is better than possibly putting them through more pain. With all they've done for me, I know they were hard on me from time to time, but at least I know they loved me through all of this. And as the saying goes, if you really love something...then let it go (and that is not a cue to start singing that ear worm song from Frozen). One thing is for sure, this may be my final entry but I will be keeping you, Azure. You hold all of my precious memories here, I wouldn't part with you for the world. So it's time to record the video and hope the Princesses can deliver it to its destination. It'll also be my final video.
Three months later
"Dear...do you hear something?" A woman asked.
"Sweetheart, you're hearing things" A man said.
"No, shhh....listen..." They both stayed quiet and sounds of someone speaking could be heard in the house. They rush to my room and see my laptop on. "Oh my goodness...it's Lotus!" The woman said.
"But..how? We haven't been in this room since her funeral" The man said.
"Then how did this video get here? On her laptop. The windows have been locked and there's no way anyone could've gotten in without us noticing" The woman said as they looked at the video playing.
Through the camera...one last time
"Hello mother. Hello father. It's me, your daughter. Lotus. Wow, I really didn't know how to start this off...even with the camera rolling I still don't know. But here goes. I just wanted to start off by saying that I'm fine. If you knew where I would, you'd think I was crazy...so I won't tell you. I've found happiness where I am. A great home. Wonderful friends, better than the ones I had before. And a husband. Yes, I am married. And we adopted two children. Currently my husband is away on a trip and my children are at school, as soon as I finish this video I will be picking them up. Back to me. I want to express my feelings to you, the best way I can. Mother, Father, I know you were stern with me because you loved me and you had a hard time showing that love. You did everything you could to make sure I didn't run off like Lily did. But the truth is she and I left your care because you sniffled us. Your love was pushing us away. Your love involved us becoming like one of you instead of pushing us to pursue our dreams. Lily and I found more comfort in each other than you knew. When she left, she told me that one day it would be my turn. And when my time came, I couldn't let it pass me up. I found everything I was missing and now I'm happier than I could've imagined. Please do not think that I resent you, I love both of you and I always will. But it's time to let me go. Make up with Lily and tell her I'm doing well too. This will be the first and last video you have from me. Please cherish it. Always remember this me...the happier me. I'll never forget you. I love you. Farewell." With that, I smiled at turned off the camera.
