Princess Celestia: So, Twilight Sparkle... are you ready?
Twilight Sparkle: To... become some kind of avatar of magic?
Princess Celestia: In a sense, and also something more.
Twilight Sparkle: Are you... gonna give me a straight answer before this happens? Exactly what kind of "change" am I about to go through?
Princess Celestia: Can't this be a surprise? You've certainly surprised me with how far you've come. Don't worry, it's the nice kind of surprise. A gift.
DM: Holy light starts to shine from Celestia. Or rather, it feels like you're starting to see her true spirit.
Princess Celestia: It's time for you to join us, Twilight.
Twilight Sparkle: *GASP!* So this is how it happens?! Now?!
DM: Well, it *was* going to be your Epic Destiny, but then you had to be all driven and impressive and stuff.
C: "It's time for you to join us. We shall have a celebratory feast of little ponies"
T: "Wait... WHAT?"
C: {handing off a set of sunglasses and a floppy hat} "You'll need these. Even at my age the sun can be a problem"
T: "But... you RAISE the sun"
C: "Yes... and then I go to my throne room with all the stained glass windows reducing the sun's rays. Luna still burns badly in sunlight."
I rather like it when that happens. Then I can leave them to handle that adventure, and tend to one of the other myriad crises that need an epic hero to solve.
