The Legend of the Seven Brothers
Prologue
Princess Celestia nodded silently to her sister, Luna. They both understood what had to be done next, and were confident their subjects would be up to the task. Celestia had never been prouder of her star student, Twilight Sparkle. She and her friends from Ponyville had once again beaten all odds and succeeded at their seemingly impossible mission in the Crystal Empire, and another window in the palace had been turned to stained glass depicting their accomplishment. Princess Celestia allowed herself a small smile and a deep breath of the cool, fresh air before turning back into the palace, where she would no doubt have more papers to sign. Luna followed close behind.
"Should we tell them, sister?"
"Not yet," the elder answered. "They've earned a few days rest. The time will come soon."
Luna nodded her agreement, and the black spiral bound notebook she had been holding with her magic disappeared.
