Here's a link to give you an idea of what I'm looking for: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOTND_UCoWs I would like something close to the audio clip.
She's the Princess of the night, she's a royal and she's by far one of the most talked about ponies in the ruling class. Perhaps that's because she was banished to the moon over 1,000 years ago when she turned into the dreaded Nightmare Moon and tried to overthrow her sister. Now she's back and she's trying to get back into the swing of things.
Royal Canterlot Voice: " Citizens of Ponyville! We have graced your tiny village with our presence, so that you might behold the real princess of the night! A creature of nightmare is no longer, but instead a pony who desires your love and admiration! Together we shall change this dreadful celebration into a bright and glorious feast!"
“It is stressful for us now that our royal duties have been resumed. We also do not…” (pause for a moment before continuing,) “We do not have many social engagements yet. As such, we write stories to entertain ourselves. ‘Tis truly for fun, not mischief.”
“Thou art being quite literal, the character Daring Do is not of our creation. Nay, a wonderful writer by the name of A. K. Yearling created her and crafted many books about her heroism. Those books are known and beloved all across our land. We are a fan of these books and it is not uncommon for literary-minded fans such as we to take a character and write our own stories. It helps grow the fiction and many build communities around these stories.”
She's about 25 to 35 years old, she used to live in a mansion with her family but decided that she didn't want that kind of life and she wanted to help ponies which is why she joined the guard. She became Royal guard in the Palace and was assigned to train a guard who volunteered out of guard school to become Princess Luna's house guard. Over time their relationship blooms and becomes something more.
“You just strung together more words in the last five minutes than you’ve said in the entire time we’ve been partners,” (laugh) “Well, clearly you were just destined to protect Princess Luna.”
“Not from the palace but certainly from here. This situation could spill upstairs in a hurry and we’d be overwhelmed. I don’t much care for the idea of knocking down regular ponies who don't mean any harm but are just panicked.”
“I’m going to see the medic. You have twelve hours to think about how you’re going to make up for not noticing for this long.”
She's a guard who has several kids and a husband at home and cares a great deal for all the ponies that work under her. She's kind, easy going, easy to talk to and has a pleasant motherly personality.
“My name is Radiant Orchid. You and I met a couple of times when you were working with us. Prior to your unit being stood up.”
“What?” (laugh) “Oh! No. No…” (Lowering voice), “The food here isn’t that great. I just wait until I get home. That is a perk of having a kitchen. You’re kind of on your own there, I guess.”
“No chance of that. Personally, I’m hoping that at some point the palace manager brings in a new staff or something. It is almost a crime that the palace should serve such awful food. You’ll live longer if you do. Listen, I know you’re new and there aren’t any other green ponies in your unit. If you need anything, you can come see me. Alright?”
She's been a royal guard for as long as she can remember and she's fairly close to being on her way out. But as one of her last assignments, she's in command of Luna's house guard.
“I hate to interrupt game time but I was actually looking for Silent Knight.”
“Miley Hooves has come down with with a nasty case of the flu. Would you mind starting your week early and working one more shift to cover for her?”
