        “My advisers told me this gamble was the greatest lunacy in the history of ponykind, but I ignored their advice.  I went to the tallest tower of our castle, and gazed upon the starscape.  I watched the moon dance in the moat, and I enjoyed the serenity of the dark one last time.  An hour before dawn, I went to her chambers, deceived her, banished her, destroyed her tower, and lied to my advisers, telling them I had struck her down in combat.”
