//------------------------------// // Epilogue 2 // Story: Friendship? Emotion not found. // by The Rar //------------------------------// “Audio log 17. Equestrian time is… 7:00Pm. This is the personal log of Royal Guard Grand Master Ajax. I am in my personal quarters within Canterlot Castle. It’s been seven years since I came to Equestria, but it feels just like it was yesterday. I have not forgotten any of the events leading up to my inhabitation of Equestria, nor has the planet. The final events of my story are a historical event taught in Equestrian schools all around and there is a statue depicting me, Shield, Faith, The Element bearers and Celestia defeating the Saturn machine in the square within which it fell. The debris of said monster (Mostly metal) was melted down and used in the construction of the statue. It’s an amazing piece of work, and I’m proud to be a member depicted in it. When I agreed to stay in Ponyville, I expected to be shunned even despite everything that had happened and me being someone saving the town. I expected them to act like humans, and hate change. They proved to be very much what they are: an alien race. They embraced me and my offers of help to re-build the town, and they were all very thankful that I’d saved them. They, along with the Element Bearers helped build a home capable of supporting my build not too far away from Ponyville. I visit regularly and spend lots of time in the company of the Element Bearers. After town had been repaired and my house build, lady Rarity offered to repaint my plate in the colours she had previously done. I kindly rejected this offer however, but simply bought a few cans of black paint. I repainted my plate in pre Equestria colours. I’m proud of it. It is a small piece of Pandora. Pandora is fine by the way. I managed to get my interdimensional radio functioning, and I managed to pick up a radio signal detailing how Hyperion had been removed from Pandora and the revolution successful. I am pleased that my idea of legend had worked, as many a loader had fought harder than any other trying to “Match Ajax’s legendary strength.”. I accepted Celestia’s offer of a position in the Royal guard. It’s much better than serving Hyperion, I can tell you that. It’s an excellent job, and another little way to repay Equestria for all it had given him. I’d been at the head of several peace keeping and negotiation operations which I’m told were crucial in quelling of a full blown civil war between Unicorn and Pegasus ponies. I began serving as a strategic adviser for a single unit, now I’m Grand Master of the Royal Guard. I’m incredibly proud to serve Equestria. I have never been happier in all my life than now in Equestria. I can never repay this world fully for all it has done for me, but I’m trying with all my might. Some people have called me a saint, so… I think it’s working. I don’t know why I keep doing these logs, very few people hear them. Only the princesses and Twilight when she asks. I don’t really know what they do with them, but I guess they like to hear how I’m getting on and developing. I guess these can be my version of Twilight’s friendship reports? Eh… But, they’re here. And it’s good to talk about these things really. So… This has been Ajax… Uh… Signing out.”
