It's been quite the eventful day here in Equestria. Between weddings, engagements, foals being born and crowning ceremonies, everypony has been very busy. A lot has changed over the years. The girls all had their own dreams to follow so they didn't see each other too much for a while. This was in no fault of them not wanting to see each other, but that they simply had no time. Of course they did see each other from time to time and wrote each other everyday.

They weren't the only ones whose lives had changed. Almost everypony had something new going on in their lives. The royal family, Discord, Cadance and Shining Armor; everypony in Equestria had changed the last few years. Some things never changed though.

Friendships were still strong with everyone. Ponyville was still a bustling little town, great for raising a family. Canterlot was still the stunning capital it had always been. The Crystal Empire flourished under the rule of Cadance and Shining. In the grand scheme of things, everything was still the same happy place it had always been, with the same happy ponies young and old.

Not everything was great though. Dark forces had also increased over the years. Though they seemed to have died down, they were really just hiding, waiting for the right moment to attack.
