//------------------------------// // Epilogue: Ascension. // Story: Quest of the cool pony // by Eder the cool kid //------------------------------// The heroes returned to the Town Hall at Ponyville, and everyone saw them in safe keeping. “Hey look, it’s Eder, and he brought back the Mane 6!” said Squidzle and pointed to him. At this point EVERYPONY in Ponville were talking not only the fact that Eder saved the Mane 6 and brought back Princess Luna to her normal self, but that Star Blade; the Shepherd of Fire, returned to Equestria. “Princess Luna!” said Dukes as he ran to her. “Sir Dukes! I am appreciated with your outstanding work with assigning Eder on this quest. You are dismissed.” said Luna. “Thank you my lord!” said Dukes as he joined the crowd. “Sister, you’re alive!” said Dash Jr. as he hugged her sister. “Heh, of course I am. What did you expect?” Said Dash. “Hey, isn’t that the Shepherd of Fire?!” ask Felix as he saw Star Blade. “At your service.” Said the red earth pony. The mayor came to Eder, holding 8 medals for the heroes. “Eder, red alicorn from Equestria. For your heroism and brave courage, I award you, the legendary Shepherd of Fire, and the manes 6; these medals.” And the mayor equipped Eder, Star Blade, Rainbow Dash, Twilight, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Applejack and Rarity with the medals. Everyone at Ponyville started to clap at the heroes. But a shine light start to make appared, Princess Celestia. “Good evening my subjects.” Said Celestia as everyone bowed to her. She then walked to Star Blade with a smile on her face. “Well young Shepherd of Fire. It has been a while hasn’t it?” “Celestia. Good to see you’re doing well.” Said Star Blade as he walked up to Celestia. “Indeed. I see you are doing well too.” Said Celestia. Star Blade chuckled as he spoke, “Well, after a big fight with Discord in the past, you could say that.” Twilight then came up to her to talk about Eder. “Princess Celestia, I have something to tell you!” Celestia smiled to her. “About the red alicorn that saved Equestria? There is no explanation needed.” “How did you know about it sister?” asked Luna. “Well, long ago when we were younger, Star Blade came from the future, and mentioned to me that if any other pony were to save Equestria if no one else could, it would be his brother. When you had vanished, I brought Eder to Ponyville help.” Said the white alicorn. Star Blade then came up to his brother holding a card. “And if there’s one pony that truly deserves to be called a hero... it’s him.” Eder looked at the last card for his collection of Famous & Popular Ponies. #100, and he saw the picture; it was him. “That’s… me!” and he check behind, and read. “Eder the cool pony, Hero of Equestria… but where did you get this?” “Maybe the proper question to ask is; when did I get this?” said Star Blade as he winked at his brother. The red alicorn then hugged his brother. “Thanks bro.” said Eder as Star Blade hugged him back. “You’re welcome.” “Before we begin, I would like to take this opportunity to show everypony that has come here something to honor our heros that will be brought to the castle at Canterlot” said Celestia as two guards pulled the curtains up, showing glass art of Star Blade fighting Discord at the Great War of Equestria on one side, and Eder fighting Chrysalis and Nightmare Moon in the present day of Equestria on the other side. “Without these two, we wouldn’t be here today. Let us all be thankful for him. Princess Twilight, you have the honors.” “Well, without anymore interruptions, let the anniversary of Equestria…BEGIN!” said Twilight. And so Star Blade; the Shepherd of Fire, returned to the present day with his friends and brother, once again bringing peace to Equestria…They all lived happily ever after… and of course… “I’m Eder the cool pony, and I’m the pony that saved Equestria.” The End.
