To all foreign leaders,

I did not expect a fourth option to arise, but with such an overwhelming response to my query in such a short time, I am proud to announce the agreed-upon plan of action to mend these broken fences:

A “Nay to Neighsay” party with all prior discussed options in place, in addition to some suggestions of entertainment and extra activities put forth by their respective leaders that range from thrilling to smashing! I haven’t had this much fun with an idea like this since inviting Discord to our annual Gala, but with every creature making contributions toward this event, I suspect it might become the new favorite of all that attend it. Luna’s already started making “No Fun-haters Allowed” signs and made arrangements to acquire some banners with Neighsay’s mugshot on them. In preparation for the banners, I’ve made my own arrangements to acquire an otherworldly item called a permanent marker—its use shall become clear upon your arrival.

Though I do have one reservation about some of the activities, particularly the lavasports brought forth by Dragonlord Ember and the Yak’s new sport of Yakskiivalanch, which involves ski racing while an avalanche chases everyone. If we’re going to do both of these things at the party, I’m going to have to shift some games around so that these two sports keep their polarizing temperatures away from each other. 

This means the Changeling Prop Hunt will have to move out of the west wing and the same goes for the Hippogriff’s One Thousand Shell Games with Just Two Shells over in the east wing. Worry not, for my castle is spacious; we will find rooms to set them up in soon.

Finally, if you wish to bring along a plus one, please let me know in advance before you make your departure. While I’m certain there will be more than enough refreshments available, I still prefer having a head count.

Note to Ember: If you bring a Hydra, that still only counts as one.

Note again for Ember: if you bring your father, he technically counts as one, but he’s going to be a challenge to incorporate into the festivities given his mega-size to our mini-games.

Alright, that about covers the basics for activities. As for the order in which we play them… we’ll just see where the party takes us for that!

One more thing, my honored guests: in order for all of this to work, we simply must have fun! No party poopers or sticks in the mud are allowed! 

So bring your game face, loosen up those limbs, and get ready for a night to remember… or forget, depending on how much we drink!

Expecting a Great Time,

Princess Celestia

P.S. Neighsay’s house is within viewing distance of my home, and I’ve bought a few cartons of eggs.

You may do with this information what you will, but I suggest bringing some form of launching apparatus. I will neither confirm or deny that my sister is considering a catapult.

As for what you bring, use your imagination.
