Now all the filly had to tackle was the homework Miss Cheerilee had given the class. At least it was just two chapters of reading from her history book tonight.
The filly had just finished washing the potato starch off her front hooves when she heard the front door of the farmhouse open followed by the sounds of her older sister wiping any remaining dirt off her hooves on the interior doormat. After seconds she heard her sister call out.
"Applebloom! I've a got a letter fer ya here! It's a from Princess Luna. I think–"
The mare suddenly found that her younger sister had materialized in front of her. "A letter from Luna!" Squealed the filly. "Really!? Where is it? Can I have it now, now, now, NOW PLEASE!?"
AJ took a step back in alarm. "Whoa there! Down girl!" The yellow-orange mare giggled. "It's right there on the desk. Why don't you take a moment and–"
Just as quickly as she'd appeared the filly had vanished with the letter and thundered up the stairs to her room. Applejack just chuckled and started sorting through the mail.
Tearing down the hall the filly slid to halt in front of her bedroom door. She then dove into the room, slamming the door behind her. She promptly plopped down on the bedroom floor and tore the envelope open. Inside was a single piece of paper with Luna's royal seal and her distinctive, flowing cursive writing. It was a short letter but it set the filly's heart aflutter.
Greeting dearest Applebloom! It is with great pleasure that I can announce that matters of state have settled back down to the point where I may resume my instructions with you and Stone Mane. I will be visiting you both tonight in your sleep after 22:00 Canterlot time. Please try to be in the appropriate state of sleep by that time to embark upon travels into the Dream Realm. If this proves impossible we will reschedule for two nights from now. I know that you've been eagerly awaiting a resumption of these lessons, and so has Stone Mane. I look forward to journeying with you tonight upon the Sea of Night.
Your Princess, teacher, and friend.
Luna
Applebloom leaped into the air with a shout of glee. Finally her lessons resuming! Even better she was getting to see Stone Mane again! The buttercream yellow filly started dancing around the room. Passing her bed she reared up and snatched one of her pillows off it. Pulling it close to herself she began pirouetting around. After a few seconds of spinning she flopped back onto the bedroom floor and pulled the pillow close to herself and gave it a hug. This was very good new.
To be continued.
