[There's just some absentminded humming at first, as Sanji had been casually flipping through the journal, checking up on the recent onslaught of entries while messing around in the kitchen at the same time. After a moment he cuts himself off, suddenly going quiet, before there's this skeptical outburst:]

...What the fuck?

[Cue some banging around, the sound of cabinets being opened and closed, and then Sanji snatches up the journal and realizes it was recording. So he just rolls with it, though he sounds grumpy now.]

Eh...Straw Hats, there's some shitty cake in the galley. If anyone wants an afternoon snack.

[Pause.]

But LADIES FIRST, assholes! Got it?

[His usual enthusiasm is somewhat...lacking. There's the sound of a lighter clicking, before Sanji grumbles around a cigarette:]

I'm taking the next watch.

[Anyone on the ship, he'll just be up in the crow's nest for awhile! And if you're gonna go steal some cake, don't question the shitty green frosting, alright? It ain't moldy or anything. Just eat the damn cake. >\]

Hmm. Well, for example, King Sombra, who enslaved the Crystal Empire a thousand years ago, recently returned from his banishment. This was actually a good thing, in the long term, but there is no denying that had he succeeded in regaining control over the Crystal Empire, a great and very literal darkness would have fallen over the world.

Huh. Sounds pretty shitty. So do you guys have some kind of army that fights things like that?

[Celestia shakes her head.] We have little need for it; ponies have incredible strength of heart, and that sees us through. My sister and I could have banished Sombra again, but this time I sent my faithful student, Twilight Sparkle, and her friends to deal with him. They are the wielders of the Elements of Harmony, and have twice before saved Equestria from a terrible fate.

[Tries not to sound skeptical or anything, but—]

...The Elements of Harmony?

[action]

[letteropener]

Six magical artifacts, whose combined power is greater than anything ever seen, because their power is that of the very literal elements of harmony: kindness, loyalty, generosity, laughter, honesty, and magic.
