It was a dark night in Canterlot, most ponies were fast asleep. But Twilight Sparkle, Princess Celestia’s most faithful student, is wandering her way through the dark archive dungeons of the castle. She was looking for a record of something nopony would or could remember.
“It cant be possible!” Muttered Twilight to herself. Earlier in the week a changling had been found hiding in a nearby barn, stealing love from the family who lived there. When then mane six arrived and had him arrested, he said something to Twilight, something that disturbed her greatly
“She is the queen of us all” those words were brushed off before. But lately they had been echoing through the purple unicorns mind. She is the queen of us all. What could he have meant by that. At first, she figured it was just an angry rant from a changling who was to devoted to his queen. But something about the way he said it bother Twilight. It sounded as though he was talking about ponies and changelings. Perhaps it was a delusional lie, but there was something in his voice. Something that caused Twilight to be haunted by the changelings words.
After countless sleepless night, she finally decided to make a impromptu visit to the Canterlot archives. If the was any kind of truth to the changelings words, then it would most certainly be here. Row after row, Twilight went through each book looking for any kind of reference to both ponies and changelings. After hours of searching, she was about to give up. But then a book caught her eye.
It was an ancient dust covered scroll, tucked away in the top corner of a book shelf. The purple pony looked at it with confusion. “How did I not see that before? I must have gone through here hundreds of times before?” Twilight asked herself as brought the scroll down to her with her magic.
She analyzed it a few times before deciding to open it slowly and cautiously. Dust flew from the scroll and around the air, filling Twilights nose and making her sneeze. It took her eyes a few moment to focus on the ancient writing on the scroll before her. The very top of the scroll read “The royal secret”
“Royal secret?” She asked herself “I know everything about Equestria’s history. There are not any secrets… are there?” She began to read the text below the title and her eyes began to grow.
“This isn’t possible!” Gasped Twilight Sparkle as she read the words before her, “Does Celestia know about this?” She kept reading, more questions filling her head, yet at the same time, she was getting answers to old questions.
