Your new home (Patreon)

Celestia gently removed young plant from its pot. Carefully the alicorn held the plants root ball and attached potting mix in her right hand. Her horn glowed softly with a pale yellow light and plant was bathed in similar light as she tapped into her earth pony aspect. As she did this she spoke softly to it.

       "Okay. Here's your new home. Moving to a new home is often an alarming experience." Celestia sets the plant into a pre-dug hole in the soil. "But your pot and former home would only let you only grow so large and eventually it would've stifled you. "

        The pale alicorn gently patted the dirt up and around the young plant. With that accomplished she paused and looked up at green hills surrounding the cottage that she and her sister called home. Just visible in the distance she could make out the misty shapes of the Royal Palace of Canterlot. The place she'd called home for a thousand year. She smiles and says to herself.

       "Yes sometimes you to leave your pot if you're going to grow."

      This was the second drawing from my recent Picarto stream. The theme was fun in the sun, and a popular summertime activity is gardening. I could see after the Royal Sisters abdicating their thrones to Twilight they move to a quiet country cottage to enjoy a live away from the intrigue of palace life.
