Twilight stared widely at the spot where a box once stood, and a contraption unlike anything she had ever seen took its place.
The form was that of a pony, except with massive differences. All over its body was bronze metal, acting as a chassis for it. Its legs had several long, thin slits that ran down to each hoof, and similar slots were on the mid-section of its barrel. Where the muzzle should be, however, was a smooth surface, cut only by one line that went across the entire jaw-line, back to a circular joint. Speaking of joints, each one exposed a set of gears and metallic pieces that reminded the Princess of those toys she had seen the Crusaders take apart. The head had two protrusions where ears would be on a normal pony, and where the eyes were supposed to be were plates of bronze metal that met at a horizontal line in the center. Twilight took a peak at the back of it, slowly circling the statue of metal, and saw that where a mane would run, were metal bars and gears, locked in place. On its flanks were the same symbols on the book's cover, except with the writing, "64-B" where the flame should be.
Overall, what she was seeing was a marvel of technology.
"What in Equestria," she breathed out as she approached the machine.

Entry: 13
Date: 2-22- Celestial Era, Year 1All of our resources are strained, again.
So many are begging that we simply surrender.
Where are our greatest heroes, some ask.
I'm one of them, as well.
Where is Princess Celestia, with her supposedly holy might?
Where is my brother, with wisdom that stretches beyond writing?
Where are our Elements of Harmony, that had defended us in times of need?
What happened?
Juniper and I have to go sort out how we're to ration what's left.

Entry: 14
Date: 2-23- Celestial Era, Year 1Celestial Era.
I've written it every time I make an entry, yet I can't figure out why.
Is it because we've lost one of our leaders, and have to now give all of our trust to her, alone?
Or is it because some of us have come to believe that she's now our only God.
I don't believe her to be.
I've seen the way she's behaved with my brother.
The way she was with her sister.
The way she taught me and my fellow enchanters.
She's not a God, in any sense.
If nothing else, her absence proves this.
It seems as though I'm wasting my time writing mere observations, now.
How I wish something would go in our favor, in these upcoming days.

Entry: 15
Date: 2-25- Celestial Era, Year 1Juniper and I kissed.
It was only for a moment, an accident, but
I felt
Everything.
For only a few seconds,
The war, the hunt for us, the abandonment of our leaders, the destruction of our cities,
None of it mattered.
I didn't want to make a big deal about it, as it was an accident.
But when I apologized, she moved forward and kissed me again.
