Hey Lyra. How are you today? I hope this message reaches you in good spirits. Things are ok here at the castle for the most part, but I really want to get out more and play. Maybe I could stop by sometime soon and we could record something. Anyways, I hope you are ok, let me know if you need anything. I wouldn't mind getting out of this castle. -Mint
My legs are sore… Instructors have to stand for too long. I’m alright, though.
The castle is pretty big, huh? Are you allowed to just walk around? What clearance do you have, or does the Princess just let you go anywhere you want?
Hmm… I’ll see what I can put together for you to play. Of course, you can always just come by and hang out!

Okay, my hooves have calmed down for the moment.
Good to hear. If you hugged me in my sleep I might have involuntarily bopped you one.
What's your favorite food? Mine's seafood, usually o3o
Have I never answered this before?
Cheese.
oh no! Lyra help me! My hooves! They're walking themselves towards you! They're saying things to my brain... "muuussstttt huuuuuug Lyyyyyyraaaaaa" Help me! I think I have to obey!
Going to take a nap, Strawberry. You’ll have to hold it.
You can hide your scars behind makeup. You can try to forget your past. But you can never change the rat that you are.

What’s the point of this? Like this is somehow… information I don’t possess.
I’ve said this before a hundred time myself. I know I can’t change what I did; that’s why I’m still here. If I could, I’d give my life to do it. But if I can’t change what happened, I can at least try to help others for the rest of my life. It won’t make amends, it never will. But it’s all I can do.
I haven't talked to you in a while Lyra, how goes it? Has Krastos played any practical jokes, like gluing you to a chair yet?
If he has, I didn’t realize it was him.
But I’m fine. How are you, E?
I can do that first part, but I don't know about the second part... I can't be happy unless all my friends are happy....
Boxing, huh? I've heard it's a common sport in Griffon culture, but I've never seen a pony do it.
It’s not common for ponies, no.
Typically it’d take a unicorn’s magic to maintain the balance and speed necessary to match a Griffon. But if it’s a unicorn fighting, usually they’d be throwing around magic spells at a distance. Plus, unicorns aren’t exactly renounced for their physical prowess. Takes yet another spell to give them the kind of strength to stand up against what an earth or pegusus pony would be capable of. Which means being effective in two specific fields of magic.
Pegesus can box effectively, but typically their style of combat involves a lot of dives and grabs to throw their opponent off balance.
Have you ever considered working for my troupe? You would get to be able to perform in the theatre, commit crimes without ever having to get caught, possibly become wealthy, and best of all, you could be in the golden aura of me, Count Folaf!

What was the worst job you ever had? What was the best?

I don’t exactly have a lot of work experience.
Best job was working at the castle. Worse job is the one I have now.
Those are the only two jobs I’ve ever had.
In your eyes, what defines a good question?

A question that’s just good is something I haven’t been asked before.
A great question is well thought out and something I can give detailed input on.
Miss Lyra, it finally occured to me: We do not live in the same world. In your world, animals have souls. That is why you object to eating them. I'm sorry for all my arguing some months back

A life is a life. It doesn’t matter if you believe in souls or afterlives. All life is sacred.
Except for bees. Bees can die. Go right ahead and eat as many bees as you can shove in your mouth.
Just answering a few questions before I go to work.
Have a good day, everypony!
Would you ever try taking up wrestling?

I have some informal training in boxing.
But no.
