"Hi! My name is Nightshade, or Shade for short! I think I'll call you… Huh. Should I call you something other then "diary"? Maybe I'll think of a name later. Anyway, you're a gift from Luna, as if you don't already know! And uh… Oh wow I wonder what I'm gonna write in here? Maybe I'll write about my brothers little crush, or that time I made Gummy turn pink and Pinkie turn green! There's so much I can tell you, and the only ponies that will ever know will be you… And me!"
