The Thesis of Douball Down

by Xtr3m3nuk3
Herein lies Douball Down’s final paper, written for his Historical Research course at Canterlot University. He tackles the greatest question around: what are the Princess' real names? He certainly thinks it’s the greatest, at least.

Many moons ago, in a far off place- oh, it's nearby now, cool- nevermind, it's gone. Many moons ago, chaos ruled Equestria. This somewhat affected the culture of the ponies living there, and one Douball Down, a grad student at Canterlot University, is determined to prove that nopony born in that timeframe would have been named “Celestia” or “Luna”. Read through the final publication of this student, and perhaps you, too, will understand his plight.

This story shamelessly plunders various concepts from Estee’s Triptych Continuum. It may or may not be incomprehensible without having read Triptych. Luckily, it’s also three pages long, and maybe incomprehensible anyway. I don’t believe there are any spoilers, though.
