I know that I didn't say Section I in my journal before this, Rainbow Dash. Deal with it, ya lazy ghost.

The Nameless One is dead, and Atlantia is no longer a threat to Existence. For the first time in 100 years, Equestria and the worlds my friends call "home" are safe again, and are able to enjoy an era of peace...

Peace. For them it may seem like that, but my friends and I would be fools to think of it that way. We know the truth: these two were merely a calm before the storm. Others will rise to take there place. Some are more cruel than they were, some are more cunning, and some simply refuse to give up and keep coming back; all of them share the goal of destroying anyone who gets in their way. So we keep watch on the horizon, knowing that the next battle may be coming any day now without warning.

If only we had the forces to combat them that we had in the past. Zachary, my son, and our beloved Diana have long since passed on, along with three of our Elements of Harmony. Magic, Kindness and Laughter remain; the latter will leave us one day as well, when she reaches the end of a Changeling Queen's lifespan in ten thousand years. Cadence and Shining are gone, replaced by their daughter Flurry Heart and her best friend-turned-lover, Bill Prower. Celestia was taken from us too during the Nameless One's invasion, her name and her deeds being preserved by her daughter Sunshine, who continues her mom's legacy and ensures that she is never forgotten. Plank hasn't been seen in a long time, but I know he is still out there somewhere, waiting for the right moment to appear again. And Tempest Shadow, one of our finest warriors and friends, has also gone to join those we lost, leaving behind only a legend and a granddaughter who lives the life of a non-combatant.

The future looks bleak and full of darkness, but we will not give up. We have lost many of our most finest, but they have been replaced with others. Our homes have been destroyed, but we will rebuild. And even if the enemy makes our cause seem hopeless, we will NOT surrender. We will fight to the bitter end, protecting our homes, protecting our families, protecting Existence.

And we are bound to this duty and resolve, in death as we are in life.
