Line 162:
Ember and Thorax began exchanging letters, with her continuing to give him advice on being a more assertive ruler.<ref>[[To Change a Changeling]]</ref> Ember was also among the leaders who attended the [[Convocation of the Creatures]], a gathering of representatives from various species across the world. She was quite uncomfortable with the situation, due to dragons lacking practice in diplomacy, but was encouraged by Twilight. [[Blacktip]], a dragon serving as archivist, was later somewhat put off to learn that Twilight was friends with Ember, as he had attempted to pass himself off as her best resource for dragon culture facts. According to one account, she later visited the [[Crystal Empire]] to discuss a trade agreement with {{FIM|Princess Cadance}} and {{FIM|Shining Armor}}.<ref>{{M|GAMELOFT}}, Presentable in Periwinkle event</ref>
 
When Twilight Sparkle opened the [[School of Friendship]] in Ponyville, {{FIM|Princess Celestia}} helped her reach out to various species to invite members of them to enroll. Ember accepted the invitation and brought the young dragon [[Smolder]] to join, though the younger female was less than enthusiastic. After ordering her to remain, and introducing her to Spike, Ember later attended [[Friends and Family Day]] with Thorax, [[Grampa Gruff]], Prince Rutherford, and [[General Seaspray]]. Unfortunately, their rambunctious students caused a scene that aggravated the anti-non-pony sentiments of [[Chancellor Neighsay]], who offended Ember and her peers. All five thus withdrew their students from the school, which Neighsay closed in his capacity as head of the [[EEA]].
 
When Twilight became determined to reopen the school, Rarity was sent to the Dragon Lands to persuade Ember to led Smolder reenroll, only for Ember to inform her that Smolder had disappeared. She and the other leaders gathered at [[Canterlot Castle]], where Ember seemed to suspect her fellow leaders of hiding the students and was suspected in turn by most of them. Even Thorax was not above her suspicions, and flaring tempers threatened the advent of an interspecies war. Fortunately, Twilight and her friends found the missing students, who convinced the leaders to let them return to the school. Chancellor Neighsay nearly sparked a conflict with more of his anti-pony rhetoric, but Celestia and Twilight were able to prevent things from getting violent and the leaders left in peace.<ref name="SD1"/>
