Nightlight
With Spike befriending the new dragon lord Equestria had gained a powerful allies.
But the biggest thing of note was Thorax befriending Spike.
Those two made great friends.
Both of them being out cast and all that.
Pharynx was still throwing a fit over Thorax leaving the hive.
Chrysalis was getting impatient but I just reminded her that if she rushes now than years of preparation will all go to waste.
After all Thorax will bring the final pieces to her.
Unbeknownst to her Discord, Celestia, and Luna were in on the plan.
Using the shadow copy that I had put in Sunburst years ago I had him notice when Shining Armor, Cadance, and Flurry Heart were replaced.
Since his job was to important he could not just leave the Crystal Empire at the drop of a hat without drawing suspicion.
Plus with changelings now running the Empire it would not be a stretch to assume that Thorax would be in danger if he stayed.
Since we had planned to take Celestia and Luna on the specific night I would capture Luna myself.
Since she would actually be awake.
In reality this was just so that I could make sure that Luna gave Starlight the message that she got in the show.
Discord had been given some of the plan but not all of it.
The changelings that replaced the element bearers had ways to see invisible individuals so that they didn't walk into Starlight.
The guards in the hive with the exclusion of Pharynx were informed on the plan.
Pharynx was assigned a mission outside the hive that as far as he knows is to give him space to clear his head.
In reality it was so he would be out of the way.
I stood on the ledge of the hive as Starlight and the others entered.
Do to my love for dramatic flare I let out a chuckle and said, "My kin arrives and the time has come. It carries well the rituals promise."
Moth Ball looked at me with a raised brow and asked if I just wanted to be dramatic when we first met.
She seemed to completely ignore the kin part.
I decided not to answer and get in position to avoid the explosion that would happen.
Moth Ball left to the throne room as I waited for the time to fulfill my role.
After some time glowing cracks began to appear in the top of the hive.
Chrysalis knew that the throne would be destroyed but I had explained that the hive would not need it.
And though it could be repaired though it's peices the pieces are also often repurposed for something else.
I began to sigh internally.
The time had finally come to come clean this Twilight and her friends.
Not to mention Cadance. This was going to be a mess.
After all I have done some awful things.
When the dust settled I landed in a less modified version of my true changeling form.
Celestia asked what happened like she had in the show, but before Starlight could start I said that I could explain best.
There were a two main things that wrong with the version of events in the show.
First Starlight called Thorax the new leader of the changelings.
And if Thorax is the leader and not her, what is she.
Second she was set in her ways, so there was no way she could accept it that quickly.
Though with years of time to ready herself for a major change in the way of life for the changelings.
The way I appealed to her was saying that the changelings would need aid in guiding them now more than ever.
While I never did mention that she needed to step down as the leader of the changelings, she came to the conclusion herself.
After she named Thorax the new king, she asked if I had planned this from the start using my name.
When Cadance heard it she was shocked.
Twilight looked confused though.
As Celestia made her comment on leaving the changeling kingdom to the changelings I told Thorax that he and Pharynx were always welcome to visit my place.
I don't think he realizes what I actually meant.
I offered to use a portal making relic for a short cut back home.
When I mentioned that Velvet will want to know all the details Twilight gasped while I transformed into my pony form.
Rarity seemed to have a nervous look but said nothing.
Looking at those in the group who did not know I knew that I would have to come clean about somethings.
Twilight
Our destination was my castle.
When the replacements in the castle saw who came through they were more than a little confused but dad told them to return to the hive.
They listened without question but I just couldn't wrap my head around what I have just learned.
My dad is a changeling.
Is he my dad.
Nightlight
I sighed and said that I would make this quick for those who need to be on their way but that I would get to everything eventually.
I started with how I ended up in Equestria.
Then I went over what happened with the naga.
Cadance was not happy about what I did to Princess Nigricollis even after I pointed out that she only knew her for like a day.
When I explained that the amulet that Trixie had gotten was my recreation of the alicorn amulet there were mixed reactions.
I also explained that I was the one who let Tirek out of Tartarus.
Even if he would have done so himself it made everyone upset with the exception of Discord who was enjoying popcorn.
I also mentioned that their were times where I left someone to die despite being able to do something.
Raritys' eyes widened but she said nothing.
She probably thought that I left them to die.
What I did was even worse.
I didn't even mention human Sunset or rather Sunstone.
I took Celestia and Luna back to Canterlot.
Much to everyone's confusion back in Canterlot.
We would be doing the same in the Crystal Empire with Velvet joining on the train ride.
As far as the public will know the princesses went to the changeling kingdom for peace talks and that Thorax has been crowned the new king of the changelings.
