Epilogue

Dear Princess Celestia,

It’s only been a day or so since we last spoke, but I feel the need to inform you of the events that occurred. After Crescent discovered my plan to cure her blindness, she was initially upset, but soon realized something great. She learned that weakness means giving up, not being disabled. She learned that her blindness was her biggest strength and that without it, she would not have been able to recognize what she had. In a sense, I would say she could see more than any of us could during the whole thing. At the end of the day, after all that had happened, she came out with new friendships and retained old ones.

Your faithful student,

Twilight Sparkle.

Finally complete! Took 9 weeks (planning and all) and I'm really proud of the final product. There may be a few edits done later in the month, I just needed to get it online before Winter Break. Stay awesome, ponies!

Welcome to FIMFic!

Hover over your name on the menu, then go to Stories in the dropdown, click the Edit icon next to your story title (looks like a pencil), and the line under your story description lets you change the story's status. Select 'Completed', then go to the bottom and hit the Edit Story button, and you should be good.

Beautiful, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this. Will you be writing any more stories?

Thank you very much for the kind words. This was initially intended to be a single project, however due to the popularity of the piece, sequels are being planned

The shortness is just my style. I prefer short stories with very short chapters. Seems more enjoyable to read in my opinion.

Worth the read.
Well word the read.

Good. I like the concept. It was clean, as far as techicnical errors. If there are any, I didnt notice them and I usually do. Some issues detracted from its potential, I feel.
Anytime dialog occured, espically with the mane 6, it didnt flow.well. I found myself skipping large* portions of dialog.
The magic capability she has seems resonable, but the way it was introduced felt random and overexplained. Then it was only used that once.
The whole thing with the robber felt like a random tangent.
*Large considering the size of the story.
Im leaving this unrated,with no thumbs.

Thanks for your input.
I plan to address the randomness of the spell in an update soon. Also, the entire part about Summer Blaze is a cameo/reference sort of thing to a friend of mine.

That's a nice introspective fic
