Decibelle: E-Everypony, please calm down! I know things look bad right now, but we're doing everything we can!

(Decibelle looks out at the crowd. The desperate expressions on their faces. It wouldn't have done to sugarcoat the situation. They've seen firsthoof how horrible things were.)

Decibelle: ... *sigh* Look, I'm going to level with you. The Power Ponies... are in a bit of a bad place right now. Even with the city abandoned, we've come under attack, and now we're struggling to pull ourselves back together.

(She could already hear the unrest her words were starting to create.)
