//------------------------------// // Dear Princess Celestia // Story: Ask Not The Sun // by LunarSacrament //------------------------------// Dear Princess Celestia, I don't know if this will even reach you, things are very different here than in Equestria. I don't even know how long it's been, a very long time I imagine. I wish I could tell you where I am but the truth is you couldn't find it even if I did, this place is Nowhere and Everywhere, it's the past, present, and future. It's... magic. I bet I could raise the sun and moon now. Sorry I digress, it all started when I began studying the lay lines. You told me to never tap into them I know but...how could I resist? You knew I would be tempted, you tried your best to manage this curiosity within me. But I'm afraid it didn't stick. I had to know Celestia, I had to, and now I do. I know everything. All of the past. Most of the future, though the present is to fuzzy to see, to many changes made a day for that… Do you remember when I asked why the sun must set? You gave me a good answer for a filly, but I understand now. The sun sets because everything must end, even the day. Even the night. Life. It's how things continue, with endings. But as nice as it is to tell you what I have learned this is also a warning. Something is coming my dear teacher. I don't know when exactly, but it will move from here into Equestria. It's horrible, I can feel it moving and pushing with so much rage. I will stall it for as long as I can. Go to the far North and wake Spike, he's sleeping there now, he can help you. I'm so sorry for the time we have lost, we will have more but first we must face this thing, this Rage. May Harmony guide your hoofsteps. Your Ever Faithful Student and Friend Twilight Sparkle
