Twilight was back, visiting for a few days. She'd come to ask in-pony for some advice; apparently a small group of Griffons had settled near Ponyville, and were being oddly territorial, despite claiming they were independent. 'Not Backed By Griffonia', an independent venture or something. Only problem being, you know, the Nation of Equestria wasn't up for grabs. A bit of a dicey political situation, but also just odd, Twilight had arrived by train yesterday hoping to speak with Celestia.
