>>31124034>After receiving a very incredulous look, you wave her off"But that Iroh character made me realize something about myself that I never thought, and, well, I can say for certain that I'm genuinely here to help you and Fluttershy. Even if I like pushing your buttons now and again."
>Twilight didn't respond much more than another sideways glance as she passed by you>Following her into the hole in the wall, you let it rezip itself as you find yourselves at the top of a large pit>A path gently sloped around the pit wall, leading down into darkness>Luna looked down the hole in confusion>"I've been in these caves several times, but I've never seen this passageway.""Well, when you're moved around as storage in this cave for 276 years, you tend to get a lay of the land, per se."
>Luna looked at Celestia>"276 years?">Celestia looked a little bit embarrassed>"I was renovating the royal garden one year and I forgot about him.""In all honesty, I could have kissed you the day you brought me out into the outside world. Heck, I could have forgiven you on the spot and swore to do no more evil. It gets so boooring in here when you have nothing to do after all. But I got over it."
>After a quite synchronized rolling of the eyes by both Princesses, you led them down deeper into the depths of the shaft>Iroh looked around>"The air smells fresher than I thought it would.">Celestia nodded>"Discord is right in that there is a natural opening that leads out into the cliffs below the city. If my memory serves me correctly, this passage will lead us more directly to it.">You turn around, and give her a grin"You know, Celestia, it's rather nice having a bunch of Princesses save the day this time. Usually you send Twilight and her friends to do everything, and frankly it's been getting stale."
>"It's not like we have a choice.">Twilight grumbled"A ruler ought to show what they're made of and take responsibility, at least occasionally."
