The War of the Princesses

Dear Princess Celestia,

Where should I begin? About a month has passed since you left us. Equestria hasn't been the same without you.I don't know what occurred. One moment we were all sitting there enjoying the Games, and then the next moment you were no longer there. Immediately following the event at the Equestria Games, Luna fell into a great depression and transformed back into Nightmare Moon. She blames everyone for what happened: Discord, Cadence, the representative from Saddle Arabia, the Wonderbolts, she even blames me.

Luna, or should I say Nightmare Moon, has declared war on the Crystal Empire. So far the war has only resulted in a few skirmishes, but thankfully there haven't been any major battles. As far as I know, there haven't been any causalities either. I would try to go and talk to Luna to try and calm her down, but she is just as mad at me as she is at Cadence. If I would even try to enter Canterlot I would probably be evaporated on the spot. The worst part is we can't even use the Elements of Harmony to defeat Nightmare Moon, because we had to give those up to save the Tree of Harmony. So we're trying to avoid her for the time being.

Cadence was just as devastated by your loss as anybody, but with Nightmare Moon's accusations she has become rather aloof. She helped us escape the Crystal Empire in the wake of the event. We've been able to keep up through letters. By what I can tell, Shinning Armor has taken control of The Crystal Army while Cadence still focuses on the day-to-day problems that a princess has to focus on. Oh how I envy her.

Discord hasn't been seen since the Equestria Games. Everyone believes that he had a hand in your demise, but Fluttershy says that he would never sink that low. For the most part, I believe her. However, that leads to one unsettling question. If it wasn't Discord who caused the event, then who did?

If you're wondering what I've been up to, my friends and I are on our way back to Ponyville. Since we can't use the railroads controls the trains, (since Nightmare Moon, or more accurately the royalty) the journey has been a very long one. We also had to take a detour around Canterlot for obvious reasons, adding more time, but I am happy to report that we'll finally be back in Ponyville by tomorrow morning. I can't wait to be back inside of the library. It'll be nice to be back in familiar settings compared to the chaos that has been the world lately.

So I suppose that I should sign off here, as Rainbow Dash has been trying to get my attention since I was halfway through this letter.

Your faithful student,
Twilight Sparkle

P.S. Sorry that we haven't buried you yet. We haven't had time for a proper funeral with everything else that is going on.
