This story is a sequel to Seven Days in Sunny June, Book III

A Tale of the Berylverse. Joint project with BlueBastard and Flynt Coal.

The climax to the Seven Days in Sunny June saga!

With weeks to go before Sunset is to realize her dream - being adopted by the family she loves more than anything - her world is about to fall apart: the human Sunset Shimmer has reappeared and it's only a matter of time before her loved ones come across the human girl who has no clue of what has happened over the course of the past five years.

But if that's not enough, Divine Right and Cantata Blast begin their final plans to summon a force beyond comprehension and to bring the world to its knees using arcane powers. All it calls for is a sacrifice, or two...or more.

Fortunately, they can be stopped.
Unfortunately, the one who can stop them's a little busy with personal issues at the moment....

There are 100 billion stars in the Milky Way, and humanity is determined to explore every one. We send probes, probes with the blueprints to reproduce human explorers upon arrival. Uninhabited worlds the galaxy over can be colonized and populated, until after many years they too can join the vast throng of interstellar civilization. But if a probe is very, very lucky, it will land on a populated world instead. Equestria is one such world.

Even so, it's far from perfect for colonization, not with an environment lethal to human life. But each probe is resourceful and armed with the greatest machine intelligence mankind has devised. If placing a human mind into a newly manufactured human body won't work, it will just have to get a little more creative.

Sunset Shimmer knew she was better than the other ponies around her, even if she didn't have her cutie mark yet. She had to be.

She just needed to find a way to prove it.

The global dust storm of a century, the dying message of an indomitable robot, and a unicorn who just can’t let go of a mystery.

This story is a sequel to What I've Done

This is the third book in The Humanity Within Trilogy. If you haven't read the other two books first, go back and do that now. Don't worry, this will still be here when you get back...

Also, if you've already finished this trilogy, you should be happy to know that the next book in the series, A Darkened Sky, is out right now! Go read it, follow it, and all that stuff!

I don't know what to believe anymore. I was sure they were all monsters, all demons bent on destroying any peace I and my new friends might find in this life.

I was wrong.

Instead of burning this world down around me, their weapons are pointed away from the planet, not towards it.

As if that conundrum wasn't perplexing enough, I also have to deal with finding my own place in this odd, yet familiar society. But how does one simply go back to being normal? Especially knowing that the real monsters that caused this mess in the first place could be just around the corner?

After all, it's not like I'll ever see my home planet again. They may not be here to hurt me or my friends, but I still don't trust these 'friendly' aliens to get me a ride home...

Dear Princess Celestia,

I'm sorry I haven't written in a while. Things seem to be falling through the cracks lately. Spike thinks I should go see the doctor, but...

There comes a time when the light must go out; but how do you know if you've burned brightly enough?
