On this 400th anniversary of the Crimson Week, the Canterlot Archives is proud to present Poet Laureate Songbird’s most famous work. Written for Princess Celestia over the summer of 617 during her melancholic “Rump Regency,” it details the origins of that horrible week and was an attempt in Songbird’s own words “to be a balm on the wounds that continue to plague us today.”
Please enjoy this all-time classic from the Darkened Sun era of Equestria's literary canon.
