This story is a sequel to The Faith of Carrot Top
Throughout world history, one of the most consistent aspects of initial contact between two cultures has been sexual. From the ravishes of British exploration in the African tropics, to the dalliance of Cortés’ followers with Aztecs in the Columbian Exchange, human beings create sexual encounters wherever they go.
A long time ago, and in the present day, there were sixteen young men and women who traveled to Equestria through the very first Fifth-Dimensional Hyperplane Gate. These bold humans mingled for three months with ponykind, and when they returned to Earth, they were determined to share the friendship they had discovered with the entire world. What followed were heady days.
These are the love stories of a spacefaring civilization. Some have happy endings, and some sad endings. They seek out strange new life, and build new families of which will be made new civilizations. It is my humble pleasure to offer you a sampling of the tales recounted to a princess on brisk September evening.
The author considers this to be a prequel to The Faith of Carrot Top, and nominally means it to be read after the original story. But Love Letters Written on the Back of a Star Chart also stands quite well on its own.
