Chapter four; dictated

All right, so I can't help but notice that the sun did not rise today. It's a little hard to miss.

See, this is why a world needs to have a Princess to raise the sun every morning. You can't count on it to rise on its own.

....Speeeeaking of which.... Princess Luna, you didn't have anything to do with this, right? I know you're not Nightmare Moon any more, but the eternal night thing is a little familiar. Can't you do something to end it?

[ After asking that, Twilight sighs, then continues. ]

And how is everypony holding up? Rarity? Fluttershy? ...Pinkie?

So in your world, a princess makes the sun rise?

That's right. Princess Celestia.

..huh. I'd say that's weird, but in my world the sun's a chariot driven across the sky. Sometimes it's a red sports car, and one time it was a bus.

I am well, thank you! ... But, yes, as you mentioned, I do wish somepony would get to making the sun rise, already ...

If only Princess Celestia were here... [ Sigh. ]

Yes, I'm certain she would be able to fix this.

There do seem to be many individuals here who have quite an array of magical powers as well, though ... perhaps one of them might be able to give it a try!

[hahaha. Have an aggravated sigh.]

Nay, Twilight Sparkle. We have nothing to do with it. [for once]

Additionally, neither lowering the moon nor raising the sun has worked.

[she's muttering a bit to herself now] Granted, I had not tried changing their course previously.

This... must be the castle's doing, then.

[ She takes the Princess's words at face value. After all, if Luna did make it eternal night, she would loudly proclaim that she did, and then follow it with an evil laugh. And if she can't make it day, then... well, Twilight can't imagine anything but the castle itself overpowering the Princess in her realm of expertise. ]

[nope, there's just a frustrated stomp of a hoof. That cracking sound might be a roof tile breaking.]

We have been trying since dawn, with naught to show for it.

[dryly:] Or rather, when it was supposed to be dawn.

[doesn't look like it's leading to cutie mark failure insanity syndrome yet; sarcasm will suffice for now.]

Eternal night is still better that eternal chaos.

I'd rather not have either, Spike.

If it's not the Princess, then it's gotta be the castle. I told you it does weird stuff.

Fluttershy? Is that you?

A-huh...

A--A Princess raises the sun in your world?

Yes, that's right. Princess Celestia.

And... Princess Luna is responsible for the moon?

A... Princess raises the sun?

That's right. She's done it for the last thousand years. [ She sounds proud of this for some reason. Even though it's not her. ]

I never heard of a princess having to bring up the sun...

Well, somepony needs to.
