"Lady Rarity is very ill at the moment, quite honestly, she has been for the past months by now, never leaving even her room. Allow me to correct myself, almost. The flu she has is just terrible and every time she thinks she is over it, it hits her again. Before you ask, yes she did call me to run her store during her absence. I truly live for you all, for I have never ever seen such illness before," the large unicorn spoke in a lie. She placed her forehooves on the counter after she became silent.
