[Unlike other posts which appear automatically on your scrolls, this one is quite patient, seeming to wait for ponies to actually read it. When the scrolls are opened, though, the following message shows up in regal, well-calligraphied print:]

My fellow Equestrians!

Greetings to you all. I find the name 'newponies' to be slightly unpleasant, so I shall call you simply as you are: new citizens of Equestria. My name is Princess Luna, sister to Celestia and ruler of the night. Believe me when I say that I do indeed know your plight of finding yourself in a strange new world, a place where you do not know where you may fit in without finding trouble. However, my sister has told me that, more than anything, I will be of aid to many of you where she could not. I have had to rapidly adjust to modern society in Equestria, so while my troubles may not be identical to your own, I can certainly relate to your woes. If thou wouldst have any questions you wished to extend to the Canterlot court, then I shall do my best to answer them.

We trust that things are well in Ponyville, or wherever you may lay thy head at night?

[Luna has left the 'post' open for replies of all sorts, though she will generally be replying in writing.]

I do agree that proper legislation could lessen the impact, but that does not change the fact that it makes things needlessly complex. Ponies live relatively simple lives, on a whole, which is part of what has allowed Equestria to remain relatively peaceful for so long.

That said, you sound as if you are an inventor. Perhaps you could continue to contemplate things that would indeed help the pony lifestyle.

[Oh he understands.] Not really. I do make things from time to time, but I mostly specialize in airplanes.

Perhaps you could work on something a touch smaller than the... traditional airplane? Something pony-sized would likely be less of a hazard than the larger devices.

Hmm. I'll think about that one.
