My goodness things have been busy lately. Im trying to find a way I can communicate with you all directly without just having to show pictures of stuff. Well while thats going on I suppose I can just keep showing some pictures with bios and whatnot.

So yes, here are the grand rulers of Equestria: King Solmidas and Queen Chernalia. Let me tell you about them:

I first met Solmidas when I was quite young, I think I wasoh, like 160ish? Yeah, thats young for an alicorn, believe me. Anyways, it was some time around when I started working for the palace court. We both started out as pages for some of the congress members and I was under training to become a senator at the time. He was the first alicorn to learn how to control the sun on his own at such a young age and he became quite well known for it as he was put in charge of the sun in the palace. He wanted to become a senator too though his wisdom and handling of political matters gained him a lot of trust from the other senators and King Gallium the Sixth. Even the ponies of Everfree Village thought he would one day become a king. For a while, Sol (thats what I called him back then) didnt really have an interest in ruling a country but eventually he gave in. Its a long story but there was a battle involving the Ice Minotaurs of the North and some other barbaric clan and Sol helped win it and King Gallium, fearing he was getting to old to lead (he was a unicorn so he wouldnt live forever), decided that it would be best to have an alicorn be the next king. Of course Sol was the perfect candidate. He was a bit reluctant at first but they took a vote and he won unanimously. He was the first alicorn to be crowned king and successor of King Gallium VI. I of course was overjoyed upon hearing that Gallium wanted to crown him king and went with it all the way and even offered to be Sols top adviser which I later became when he came into power. Later on my dream of becoming a senator came true and Sol gained a few new advisers but being one of his oldest friends I am still somewhat of an adviser. Sol knew Chernalia a few years before he became king but he developed strong feelings for her some time after the battle was won and asked for her hoof in marriage a few years after becoming king. She loved him very much but was unsure about becoming the queen so she studied under several tutors to better her understanding of politics and after several trials was appointed queen and remains queen to this day.

The king used to be a lot like me but nowadays being in command has made him very serious and stern. It doesnt make him any less of a good pony though. Hes very charitable and cares greatly for his people. A lot of the kings of the past were somewhat greedy and cold but Sol didnt even start out that way in his youth. Since alicorns are immortal we mature greatly after being around for so long and Sol is a prime example of this which is why he was chosen to be the alicorn king. He has a heart of gold and magic that rivals that of Starswirl the Bearded. The fact that he is immortal also keeps him from stressing out so much which makes him a better workaholic than any king has ever been. Hes been king for over 850 years and we havent had a full-scale war in over 500 years thanks to his excellent diplomatic skills. Hes made peace with so many tribes and works out problems whenever they arise. There are times when he can be a bit grave and skeptical but its only because he cares for what happens to his people and hes ready to take action whenever a threat seems present.

I first met Chernalia when Sol met her. She was another very special alicorn because she was the second one to learn how to move celestial bodies. At that time she was only powerful enough to move the moon though nowadays she is also able to move the sun. The queen is very fair and beautiful and always seems to have a smile on her face. Shes a little more outgoing than the king and spends her time getting involved with ponies who live outside of the palace. Every now and then shell roam the streets giving some food to the poor and encouragement to the young ponies. She loves children, telling stories, and very calm graceful music. Shes not quite as powerful as Sol but she is very capable with her magic and can do things that surprise even Starswirl. Sol treats her very well and the only time I hear them arguing is over minor political matters having to do with the courts and other things of that nature.

Theres much more I could say about these two wonderful leaders but I am out of time and need to be at a court hearing soon. Ill start updating more though and hopefully can start answering some questions. :)
