Sorry I'm late, but it is
so hard to find a sitter

00:14:50,956 --> 00:14:53,058

[squeaky toy squeaks]
351
00:14:55,327 --> 00:14:57,562
Honestly, I would
have been here sooner,
352
00:14:57,595 --> 00:15:00,165
but you would not believe
how busy Yakyakistan
353
00:15:00,198 --> 00:15:01,367
is these days!
354
00:15:02,667 --> 00:15:04,536
Maybe we could get
to places on time
355
00:15:04,569 --> 00:15:06,138
if you let me do
some of the chores
356
00:15:06,171 --> 00:15:08,407
instead of always doing
everything yourself.
357
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,976
Maybe I would if you
did them the right way.
358
00:15:11,009 --> 00:15:13,579
Oh, sorry. We're not
the last ones, are we?
359
00:15:17,148 --> 00:15:19,017
Discord's headed to
an O&O convention
360
00:15:19,050 --> 00:15:20,386
or he'd be joining us.
361
00:15:22,187 --> 00:15:23,689
I just assumed that
since you aren't together
362
00:15:23,722 --> 00:15:24,957
all the time now...
363
00:15:24,990 --> 00:15:26,124
That we aren't friends?
364
00:15:26,157 --> 00:15:28,226
[laughter]
365
00:15:28,259 --> 00:15:30,028
That's not the
point of my story.
366
00:15:30,061 --> 00:15:32,197
It's true my coronation
was a disaster.
367
00:15:36,501 --> 00:15:37,703
[splash]
368
00:15:37,736 --> 00:15:40,472
Well, at least the
coronation is over.

That was something.

00:15:52,017 --> 00:15:54,686
I was just about to
say the same thing.
375
00:15:54,719 --> 00:15:58,256
I know maybe it wasn't the
coronation you planned,
376
00:15:58,289 --> 00:16:00,192
but it's good to see
all of you laughing.
377
00:16:00,225 --> 00:16:02,627
We wanted to give this to you
before you left Ponyville,
378
00:16:02,660 --> 00:16:04,596
but things got a little hectic.
379
00:16:04,629 --> 00:16:06,565
Since you're moving away,
380
00:16:06,598 --> 00:16:09,568
we thought if you missed
any of us, or Ponyville,
381
00:16:09,601 --> 00:16:10,703
this might help.
382
00:16:15,540 --> 00:16:16,541
Awww!
383
00:16:16,574 --> 00:16:18,443
It's a book of memories.
384
00:16:18,476 --> 00:16:20,212
And we all chipped in some.
385
00:16:20,245 --> 00:16:21,747
No matter how much
things change,
386
00:16:21,780 --> 00:16:24,149
you'll always have
this to look back on.
387
00:16:24,182 --> 00:16:26,451
I love it. Thank you
so much.
388
00:16:26,484 --> 00:16:28,353
But I don't want
to only look back.
389
00:16:28,386 --> 00:16:30,422
Obviously, the coronation
wasn't perfect,
390
00:16:30,455 --> 00:16:31,723
but that doesn't matter.
391
00:16:31,756 --> 00:16:33,792
It's our relationships
that really count
392
00:16:33,825 --> 00:16:35,727
and we have to maintain them.
393
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:37,662
But now that we're
living in different places,
394
00:16:37,695 --> 00:16:39,631
I'm not exactly sure how.
395
00:16:39,664 --> 00:16:42,534
I am. I suggest we
meet once a moon.
396
00:16:42,567 --> 00:16:46,038
In fact, my first royal
decree as ruler of Equestria
397
00:16:46,071 --> 00:16:48,306
is to establish this
Council of Friendship!
398
00:16:48,339 --> 00:16:50,742
[excited chatter]
399
00:16:50,775 --> 00:16:53,512
Celestia: And what a
wonderful decree it is!
400
00:16:53,545 --> 00:16:56,681
We always knew that whatever
adversity you faced, you and
401
00:16:56,714 --> 00:16:59,818
your friends would find your
way through it together.
402
00:16:59,851 --> 00:17:02,621
We know Equestria is in the
perfect hooves with you
403
00:17:02,654 --> 00:17:05,424
AND your friends
looking out for it.
404
00:17:05,457 --> 00:17:08,226
And while we'll always
be here if you need us,
405
00:17:08,259 --> 00:17:10,162
it's time for us
to be on our way.
406
00:17:10,195 --> 00:17:11,530
You're leaving?
407
00:17:11,563 --> 00:17:14,166
We hope you'll come and
visit us in Silver Shoals.
408
00:17:14,199 --> 00:17:17,102
But now it's time for
you to rule on your own.
409
00:17:17,135 --> 00:17:20,172
You're all more than capable.
410
00:17:20,205 --> 00:17:22,441
Thank you. For everything.

[sobbing]
412
00:17:28,513 --> 00:17:31,616
So, even though
everything changed,
413
00:17:31,649 --> 00:17:33,318
and you moved away
from your friends,
414
00:17:33,351 --> 00:17:35,487
you didn't grow apart?
415
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,756
And this is the
Council of Friendship.
416
00:17:37,789 --> 00:17:39,758
That's what you're
all doing here?
417
00:17:39,791 --> 00:17:43,161
Duh. This time every moon.
418
00:17:43,194 --> 00:17:47,566
What she means is, this is how
we've been ruling together!
419
00:17:47,599 --> 00:17:49,568
And how we've continued
to face every problem
420
00:17:49,601 --> 00:17:51,703
and threat to Equestria
over the years.
421
00:17:51,736 --> 00:17:54,473
But mostly, it's how
we keep in touch.
422
00:17:54,506 --> 00:17:56,508
No matter how busy life gets!
423
00:17:56,541 --> 00:17:58,877
Sometimes friendships
can be hard,
424
00:17:58,910 --> 00:18:00,712
and it takes work
to maintain them,
425
00:18:00,745 --> 00:18:03,415
but without friends,
things can be a lot harder.
426
00:18:03,448 --> 00:18:05,183
I never thought
about friendship
427
00:18:05,216 --> 00:18:08,120
being something to work
at and I don't mind work.
428
00:18:08,153 --> 00:18:10,388
I guess if they don't
have to fade away,
429
00:18:10,421 --> 00:18:14,126
maybe making friends isn't
the waste of time I thought.
430
00:18:14,159 --> 00:18:16,828
But I've been so
focused on my studies,
431
00:18:16,861 --> 00:18:19,197
I wouldn't know
where to start.
432
00:18:19,230 --> 00:18:20,398
That's all right,
433
00:18:20,431 --> 00:18:22,167
because I know exactly
where to send you.
