The Saltwater Room
Chapter 10: [Intermission] - Letter 1
Previous Chapter Next ChapterDear Starlight,
Well, hi. First off, I’m kind of sorry that this didn’t get to you sooner. Everything here in Canterlot has been so hectic recently, so I haven’t had much time to myself, I guess. Still, it hasn’t quite been fifteen years. That’s good, right?
Anyway, past the hecticness, life’s been pretty good. Kind of. It’s complicated. Recently, I’ve been subtly giving Event more and more duties at the library. He’s going to replace me as Head Librarian eventually, even if he doesn’t really want to. He got mad recently, actually, because you and I are ‘dating’. He kind of saw me first, so it’s understandable, but it all just faded when I told him he’s still my best friend. And, you know, the Mage Exam is happening, I guess. How’s Ponyville this time of year, by the way?
To be honest, I this letter has sort of an ulterior motive to it. See, I have a few weeks of vacation days that I have to use by the end of the year, lest my higher-ups get mad at me. Again. Really, Celestia just wants me to take a break. The problem here stems from my lack of anything to use it on. I tend to hate taking vacations because I have nothing to do. But, seeing as next week is Hearth’s Warming week, I was sort of wondering if you’d be willing to ‘host’ me during that time. Not, like, host host. I can get a hotel no problem. If Ponyville has any hotels, at least. Is it a tourist location at all? I know that the Elements live there and all, but I’ve never heard anyone wanting to go there. Could just be Canterlot ponies though.
And, before I ramble too much, I should probably finish this up. I hope to get a letter from you soon enough, but don’t rush because of me.
With much love and warmest regards,
Sunburst.
