Coronation
Some memories are better left forgotten. Wayvern learned that moments after he was crowned King of Equestria. The ceremony was uncomfortable, for the subjects of the Equestrian Government, and especially for Wayvern. Twilight's friends stood with her on either side of the doorway to the balcony where he would be crowned. Applejack, Fluttershy and Rarity on the left, Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie Pie on the Right. Twilight stopped him.
"Know that I want only what's best when I say this," She said. "But you don't have to do this."
"If it were my decision, I wouldn't do it at all," Wayvern said. The door opened and light filled his mind as he started to remember something. He got a lot of memory back, every single moment centered on a hunter called Avalanche. As far as Wayvern could tell, he and Avalanche were very close friends… and then Avalanche was killed in action. Before Wayvern's eyes no less. When Wayvern Did finish off the Kaiju that killed Avalanche, he went to find him still breathing.
"Wayvern… you have to… Live… for the… Both of us…" those were Avalanche's Last words. When he stopped remembering Avalanche for five minutes, he looked out to the crowd and saw uneasy smiles cheering for their new king.
Go ahead Wayvern, He heard Avalanche say. Tell them the truth, just make it meaningful.
"Everypony! I have something to say!" Wayvern started. "If the rule were my decision, I'd leave it to Celestia and the others!" Everypony laughed at this as it was meant to be a joke. "However the decision is not mine to make, this legacy is mine to uphold and I must do so, for your sakes and my own! I do not expect your support immediately, but I expect your respect. I don't care if you respect me as king, but you will respect me as one of your own kind if I am to be a successful ruler! Thank you!"
With that the Cheers actually had some feeling behind them.
Thank you Avalanche, Wayvern thought.
