1st sunrise: It's like the first time, but it's not [Video]

(Check it out, fellow villagers; the video's picking up on a bright flash of light creaking in through the window. Wanna know what's taking its place once the light dims down a bit? A tall, white horse with a long, flowing mane and a crown on her head. Probably similar to another regal pony, right?

Well you're absolutely right about that. She looks to be in one of the community building's rooms. Surprise surprise, it's the same one as Luna's.)

That was certainly an unexpected detour. One I hope I won't have to venture again, but I've finally made my return from the mission on the moon.

I didn't give a proper introduction during my previous visit, but now seems to be a great time for such things. (She smiles a bit.) I am Princess Celestia of Equestria. It is a great pleasure to meet everypony else here. It seems as tho-

(Nope. Looks like her sentence is interrupted by a brief flash of flame before a phoenix perches herself on one of Celestia's forelegs.)

Ah, it seems they've decided to bring you along as well, my pet. Everypony, this is Philomena. Say hello, Philomena.

(The bird casually waves a wing at the camera.)

It appears we'll be spending much more time here than before, so I hope to get to know you all much better this time around. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Barely a couple of weeks.

Then I may not have too much to catch up on...very well then. I'm sure there will be plenty to do for the next few days.

(She seems pleased at having things to do. Because last time, she got bored.)

[fierybluebird]

Most likely. If nothing else, hunting down all the lost and confused new feathers seems like a full time job should anyone be inclined.

Ah, all of the new ones coming to Luceti? That would be quite the task, wouldn't it? That's something to consider once I'm more settled in.

[Nods.] I don't think I'll ever get used to it, but it's a little like new kids joining the Moby Dick back home. Just with the added scavenger hunt of finding them all first. And explaining the Malnosso instead of the division commanders.

[Yes, because Princess Celestial will obviously understand that random bit of pirate talk.]

(Of course she will...okay not really, but such is the power of context clues!)

There's quite a lot to explain to everyone who comes in. Though explaining the same things repeatedly will be tedious, finding the newcomers could be quite fun. Perhaps a notice or a letter of greeting should be circulated...

That might work for the village, but I'm not sure how effective it'd be in the forest or ocean. Still, that's where flying out to find them comes in, eh?

[Video]

[herroyalsunrise]

It certainly would.

(Because real wings are where it's at.)

With anyone being able to appear in any place within the barrier, flight becomes a wonderful ability to have.

[Video]

[fierybluebird]

Aye. Handy back home even without the barrier too, eh?

Re: [Video]

[herroyalsunrise]

Precisely. The added mobility is certainly appreciated.

(Plus, having the wings makes her look more graceful...or intimidating, depending on what she wants.)

[Marco totally agrees bro-sis.]

Aye. Good for a fight, good for height, good for everything.
