After all of that history had happened, it was all collaborated into a picture book, and sadly marked as fantasy. However, some historians are considering it to be true, and most of the public thinks so. But the weird thing about it all is that there is a lot of variation to what the ponies all think of such a story.
But remember the very beggining. Why, none of it would have ever happened if it weren't for "the purple princess", Twilight Sparkle.
