My sister and I are the rulers of the land of Equestria, a great nation of perhaps five million creatures, the vast majority being races of ponies. While we control the sun and moon with our respective magics, most, including ourselves, never truly considered the idea of other life elsewhere in the cosmos. Ponies are more simple than that, content with the world around them, and we are often preoccupied with settling the problems of our own citizens. However, your message has been well received not only by us, but the populace as a whole.
