Five Friendly Venoms

by Tumbleweed


Some Notes on the Text

Of Princess Twilight Sparkle's accomplishments (of which there are many), perhaps her most impressive, most enduring legacy will be her School of Friendship. It is an institution that has endured to this day, teaching class after class of young ponies (amongst other species) the literal Magic of Friendship. I should also note, in the interest of full disclosure, that I myself attended Princess Twilight's school as a young colt.

Given the school's importance in Equestrian history, it comes as no surprise that Flash Sentry set hoof inside its hallowed halls (however unwillingly). It's this connection that initially drew me to this particular episode of Flash Sentry's memoirs. As usual, Sentry provides a fascinating view into everyday life of the era, albeit with his particularly ... candid tone. Such a perspective is invaluable to students of history, and as always is my primary reason for publishing Sentry's memoirs. Any insights into Sentry's personal life are, of course, entirely coincidental. One must, of course, regard history with a detached sense of objectivity.

As always, I will provide additional commentary and clarification in the footnotes as needed.
