I've come across many revelations in a short amount of time, and many of them have been grim truths I'd never even dared to think about until now.
Now, though?
Now I have questions—questions I'm not sure I want the answers to. There's a lot I still don't know, but I'm starting to realize that my tiny, safe little world has much more depth than I ever knew... and it scares me.
There is one answer I stumbled upon. It was an answer to something I'd often thought about since I became an alicorn. It was an answer to a question that I went out of my way to avoid asking aloud.
It was an answer I wasn't prepared for. It was an answer that was violently forced upon me, and now it's something I have to deal with, no matter how much I don't want to.
What I do want, are to see my friends and family again, but even more than that, I want to talk to talk to Celestia.
I need to talk to Celestia.
