They're made when rainbows tou-" "No, that's stupid, that's what we tell little fillies who are too young to understand that ponies come from sex." "... s-sex?" "Yes. I haven't the time to get into that right now, but it doesn't matter because you were different, you were special. You were born from magic." "I'm... different?" "Twilight, I created you from magic because needed someone who could gather the Elements of Harmony, and there was nopony who could do that. So I made one. I made a pony that could learn all the knowledge of Equestria, who could wield the Elements and use them for the good of Equestria." "So I'm... I'm a weapon?" "No! Of course not, no. Because... I also wanted someone who could learn what the Elements of Harmony mean, truly, and learn from those Elements. Because I wanted you to learn what it is to have friends and love and to be loved. Because, one day, I wanted you to take your place beside me, not just as my student but as my equal. I wanted you to grow up. To live. To take your place as the Queen of Equestria, after you had learned everything you needed on that path. And I wanted to help you. And most of all, I wanted a daughter, Twilight. Someone I could love more than all the other ponies in Equestria. And I have that. I have you. My little Twilight."
And Twilight cried, as Celestia held her. Not just for the things she had lost, to know that she would always be different from other ponies, always apart, but also for what she had gained. To know that she would always have friends, and a mother's love. |
