“Once or twice a year the princesses invite particularly close allied leaders to Canterlot for a casual visit, giving them the chance to enjoy the sisters hospitality and bond over the burden of rule. While a somewhat high profile affair there are whole days when days when they and the princesses are hidden away in the castle or some reclusive estate. Some claime that it is just a flex by the princesses on the leaders of less powerful nations, while others say that secret political dealings are had. A rare few whisper that these meetings are ment to arrange and deliver tribute to the throne. These rumors are almost certainly that, as guests often leave satisfied with the trip and are eager for future visits.”
