Sincerely, Starlight

Letter 6 - Luna to Starlight

Dear Starlight Glimmer,

Thine extension of friendship is heartily accepted and most welcome! I will cherish it all my days. Perhaps we should meet word with deed and meet for tea? Tis a loathsome thought for thee to feel that I am out of reach. If we are to be friends, then let us be so in earnest. I am not SO busy that I cannot spare a moment to chat in pony.

I am glad to hear of positive development with thy friend, and more so to hear that thou art seriously contemplating the nature of thy being. To be truthful, I worried that my guidance may have been taken out of context, but I was wrong to have such fears. Starlight Glimmer, thou art a very intelligent mare, and thine ability to recognize thy wrongs is what separates thee from those that are doomed to repeat such mistakes...

Or at least, from repeating them overly much! Sometimes lessons must be learned more than once, so do not be disheartened. I must admit, I sometimes wonder if I am at risk of committing the same wrongs over and over myself.

No matter my age or my station, I am not beyond making mistakes... Nor is my sister. Thou werest there. Thou helped us. I wished to speak more frankly with thee, and I am sorry that thy visit was so centered on the issues my sister and I shared, but I am GLAD. Glad that thou were there to so boldly put us in our place, and that my sister and I had grown enough that we could stop and LISTEN.

Though, if I am being honest, there was perhaps a small chance that Celestia would have thrown thee into the dungeon for switching our cutie marks. Just something to consider next time! (Ah sorry, I jest! Thou art safe. Celestia uses the dungeon for sugar storage.)

Be proud! It all worked out and all thanks to thee. I think thou givest thyself much too little credit. We are so grateful to thee for thine assistance in bringing us closer together as sisters. I have ever more faith that thy challenges, both in the present and future, shall come to positive conclusions!

All The Best My Dearest Friend,
Princess Luna
