Description
"Sister?"
"This isn't going to be easy, Luna."
"What do you mean?"
Celestia gave a sad sigh.
"Many ponies here in Canterlot want justice for what the changelings have done. I cannot give this changeling a full pardon without upsetting most of our citizens."
"But, Sister, he saved two of our own!"
"After they saved his life, Luna. He owed them a life debt. Everypony will believe that's all it was. But now that they are even, there is nothing to stop him from doing that which is bad."
Furrowing her brows in anger, Luna said:
"Nothing but the Magic of Friendship."
Celestia gave her sister a surprised look, then hardened her expression and said:
"It's not that I don't have faith in the Magic of Friendship, Luna. But answer me this; would you have believed that a changeling wanted to be friends with a pony if you had not seen the things that you have seen?"
Luna wanted to give a good comeback, but slowly looked away in shame knowing full well that such an idea was unbelievable.
"Besides the Apples, nopony has seen anything to convince them that changelings are capable of friendship and love. All they would have to rely upon is our word, and even we can be wrong. (sigh) I should know."
Celestia still blamed herself for what happened on the day of Cadance's wedding. She knew her niece better than anypony, and yet the changeling queen fooled her and her kingdom. Twilight saw past that creature's lies, but Celestia put her faith in it over her most faithful student. What kind of leader does that?
The bad kind.
Luna noticed the regret in her sister's eyes. She knew that look all too well.
"Tia, it's not your fault that the changelings almost won. We were not prepared to face a foe like that."
"I was too trusting, Luna. I refuse to make that mistake again."
Taking a moment to think, Luna smiled and said:
"Then don't."
Celestia raised an eyebrow as she looked at her sister skeptically.
"What are you saying?"
"We don't need to lock him in a dungeon to keep everypony safe. He is just one changeling, and right now he is under the watchful eye of Applejack; one of the element bearers. They defeated a hundred changelings all on their own during the invasion. Who better to safeguard a changeling than them?"
"..."
"Please, Sister. Give him a chance like you gave me."
