[Its true that she's answering questions for those in the scroll. However, she knows that not everypony was looking at the scrolls, reading the story. So, she decides to open up to others outside the story, while the story was still going.

Even if she's just the book's version of it, there's no denying the sheer presence of this creature, with good reason, of course.

So she smiles, then speaks, her voice everywhere and nowhere at the same time.]

GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYPONY. I'M CERTAIN YOU ALL HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT MY PRESENCE IN THIS STORY, AND PROBABLY OTHER THINGS.

I'LL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER THEM.

HELLO, DONNA.

YOU'RE RIGHT, 'PALE PONY' IS A TITLE, AN ATTRIBUTE. HOWEVER, I'M UNSURE OF GIVING OUT MY TRUE NAME ON A NETWORK THAT CALICE IS ABLE TO ACCESS IS A PARTICULARLY GOOD IDEA. THE CORRUPTION IN HER WOULD NO DOUBT USE IT AGAINST ME

SO RIGHT NOW, FEEL FREE TO USE ONE OF MY MANY PSEUDONYMS, OR MAKE UP A NAME FOR ME IF YOU'D LIKE.

Okay. Fair enough. What can you tell us to help cure the Corruption, then? If old Red Eyes is might be watching.

THE CORRUPTION'S GREATEST WEAKNESS HAS ALWAYS BEEN WHAT MAKES EQUESTRIA THE WONDERFUL PLACE IT IS.

FRIENDSHIP, AND THE HAPPINESS IT BRINGS. IT CAN'T COMPREHEND IT BECAUSE IT NEVER TRULY EXISTED TO KNOW IT.

When did the corruption actually start seems like it was a long time ago. Is it something that only goes after alicorns? Why?
