Dear Princess Twilight,

This is an emergency so please read this fast.

Today I decided to go out with Trixie and buy some stuff for her next show. We headed to the shop and checked some second hand goods, but something caught our attention: an amulet in the shape of an alicorn with a red gem at the center.

Trixie was really interested. “Wow, this is just what I needed for my cloak! With it I will truly be the Great and Powerful Trixie!”

The shopkeeper showed up with a devilish smile just when she said that.

“Well. Well well, if you want it I should warn you that you must pay a steep price!” She looked for money in her pocket but she had spent it on smoke bombs and stuff.

“I got you covered, here you go.” It was quite expensive, but we managed to buy it at last, though now I wish we hadn’t. She thanked me and then she told me about her big big show which I don’t have time to explain.

So the next day, she set up her props on the gym stage and not surprisingly not many people came to watch, but just as she failed in one of her tricks, people started to make fun of her and then she just levitated them like Twilight levitated herself and her bunk at Camp Everfree! And now she’s just blowing the whole school down! Is it something to do with that amulet?

Sunset Shimmer,

This really is an emergency! What Trixie is holding sounds like the Alicorn Amulet, which the Trixie in this world also got hold of. I don’t know how it got to your world and I don’t have time to find my friend Zecora and ask her where she hid it. But one thing for sure, it’s a very strong artefact, and you better act quick since it is known to drain the holder of all kindness and fill them with evil darkness. You better take that thing away from her as soon as possible.

But I just remembered: when I got the Amulet away from Trixie in my world, I didn’t use Equestrian magic but fooled her into just giving it to me for something she thought was more powerful. Don’t be surprised if trying to get it from her by magic doesn’t work; trying to use more and more magic is a dead end.

I really hope I hear from you again.
