To whoever read this, I am a unicorn by the name of Starlight glimmer. (fig. 1a) I had recently come back to Ponyville from a "Friendship Mission" in Klugetown with my close companions Sunburst (fig. 1b), Trixie Lulamoon (fig. 1c), and Maude Pie (fig. 1d).
When I got back I had found that the entire town, as well as any other pony-centric civilization surrounding ponyville, had changed and ponies everywhere had been infected with a peculiar disease that has changed them physically and mentally but not causing any physical harm to the infected.
This book is to to track research on the infection. This includes the origin of the disease, the stages of the infection, and hopefully the solution to curing the disease. The purpose of these entries is to inform so something like this may not happen again but if it were to happen again a written solution should hopefully be presented.
