This story is a sequel to A New Ending

This is a soft reboot/rewrite of my Endingverse story Endings and Beginnings, which I have put on hold for the present.

After the devastating invasion of Equestria by human turned Emperor Jason Wright, the truth about the reasons for Jason's actions has begun to come out. Ponyville has been completely wiped off the map, its once cheery buildings reduced to rubble, and with it, the happiness and joy of everypony there once they began to realize just how they were all to blame for it.

The Elements of Harmony have barely spoken to one another since that time, all wallowing in their own grief and misery. Pinkie has left Ponyville and has lost her smile, Rainbow Dash hasn't flown since the invasion, Rarity refuses to speak about it to anypony, Applejack hardly leaves her farm, Fluttershy never visits Ponyville and is only seen wandering the edges of the Everfree Forest, mourning the loss of one of her closest friends and many of her animal friends as well, and Twilight has been working tirelessly to help rebuild all of Ponyville. They've hardly spoken since that day, and their friendships are all but over.

Meanwhile, across the ocean, a second human has arrived in the dilapidated city of Gryphonstone. Unable to visit the land of Equestria, which had been his dream, and after accidentally recovering an item that holds special significance to the gryphons, Gregory Graystone settles in and makes friends and allies in the crumbling city, some expected and others unexpected.

As the months pass, questions remain. How will the world react to the presence of a second human? How will Equestria recover from the invasion of Canterlot by the changelings? Will Jason Wright find out about this second human?

I would like to go back to Endings and Beginnings at some point and change things, starting with a certain arc, but I wanted to do a parallel story with some elements changed.

Some chapters may seem very similar to the original but I may or may not have changed things around or added something to it.

Tags will be updated as events unfold.

I've been stuck in this world for just over a year now. In that time I've run into mythical monsters, physics-defying ponies, and actual, real magic.

Oh yeah, and the rulers control the sun and moon.

But that doesn't matter, because I know the cutest pony that ever lived.

Sunny’s had a lot of questions after bringing the magic back to Maritime Bay, and attempting to spread it to the rest of the world; mainly, why did it all go away in the first place? It must’ve been for a reason...

Heading back to the lighthouse where magic was shown to her for the first time, she finds a system of caves running deep underneath it, and within, she finds far more than she bargained for...

Also, I’ll say right here that this isn’t just a fic based off that line; no, this is more of a proper look into what could’ve taken the magic away from Equestria before G5, and what could happen to Twilight in that world.

Ex-queen Chrysalis stumbled across an old Equestrian law. It stated that as long as she said a certain phrase, no pony, not even alicorn princesses, could fight or punish her for eating love.

Naturally, Chrysalis exploited the hay out of her new favorite law.

In a desperate bid to escape her punishment and imprisonment Nightmare Moon swaps herself with that of a different creature, a human from an alternate world leaving that human's soul in her place. The new nightmare moon must live on in her stead with knowledge gained from their world and knowledge left behind by the old Moon.

This story is heavily inspired from S. D. Locke's SCP-001 proposal "When Day Breaks"

You take the perspective of a theater pony who is trying to find Princess Twilight Sparkle and get answers for the tragedy taken upon Equestria and beyond. The melting of millions if not billions of creatures turning into waxy looking horrors in only a disastrous minute, never being able to die, pegasi falling from the skies, no one will survive!

A majority of characters are original.

When Sunny reintroduced magic into Equestria it caused quite a bit of change. Canterlogic had to entirely shift gears to stay afloat. Sugar Moonlight, a previous model of Canterlogic, is demoted to a much less glamourless job. Frustrated with her hoof of cards, she takes out her anger on a seemingly plain glass jar. Only, this was a magical jar. Now she is in the Everfree forest in a building with living creatures that she'd never seen before.

Wooden creatures with very sharp teeth.

At least she's not alone.

This is a story started for the Generation 5 Bingo Writing contest. Due to external problems, and my inability to write smaller stories, I never got around to finishing it before the deadline. Now it's been bouncing in my head for a while and I need to get it down so I can focus on my other stores.

A strange visitor named Isidora appears in Ponyville, in the form of Pinkie Pie. They claim to want instruction on how to be her.

Pinkie and Twilight have to wrestle with three questions that are both intertwined: How to get them home, why they wanted to be Pinkie, and what makes Pinkie Pie... herself?
