Princess Celestia has been keeping a dark secret from her subjects for a very long time.

It's not an easy truth to tell, but if anyone can accept her after learning it, it will surely be her most faithful student.

Third Place Finisher in Equestria Daily's 2013 Nightmare Night Contest!

During a lull in the conversation at an upper class charity dinner, Rarity takes a moment to contemplate some commonly held assumptions made of Princess Celestia. Specifically, her table manners.

Once, she was a prisoner, beaten and tortured by grotesque horrors.

Once, she was an honored knight, decorated and respected as the strongest of warriors.

Once, she had touched godhood, revered as divine by the people.

And once, she was even a coward, running far from her responsibilities.

But what is she now? Lost, broken, alone, fallen? She is all of these things, but most importantly she's alive.

When Big Macintosh finds an injured pegasus mare in the Apple family's new barn, he and the rest of his family take it upon themselves to see her back to full health. Soon, they see that the mare carries with her an aura of mystery thicker than anypony could ever imagine, bringing with it both new adventure and enlightening experiences.

My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. It was a show that so many loved, so many hated, so many were indifferent about, and so many knew nothing of. But now, it's over. The show has run its course.

Twilight apparently didn't get the memo.

Luna and Celestia hold a slumber party to celebrate Luna's return from the moon.

When Rainbow Dash wakes up to find herself sharing a bed with somepony—or rather, somedragon—she knows she's going to have an eventful day. Determined to put the whole ordeal behind her, she agrees with Spike to forget the evening had ever happened.

However, things have a way of coming back to haunt you, and for Rainbow Dash, it may not be what she asked for at all.

Pinkie Pie lay dead on the floor of Sugarcube Corner, surrounded by her closest friends. One of them was the killer, but which one? Can the others figure out the identity of the culprit? And why is Pinkie smiling so wide?

Pinkie's parties are the things of legend. She's thrown parties for birth-iverseries, new residents, you name it. However, for all her party prowess, there was one type of party that Pinkie had never thrown before...a Murder Mystery Party!

Who could have bumped off the bouncy baker? Was it the Star Athlete? The Businesspony? The Number One Assistant? The Socialite? The Chef? Only one pony knows and the "dead" tell no tales. They do, however, do their best to make sure everypony has tons of fun! The game is ahoof!

Awake and alone, Applejack will find a way to survive.

And here's a TV Tropes page, if you're into that kind of thing.

A changeling gets a very risky and clever idea.
Pretending to be an advanced magic doll left as an anonymous gift in front of Twilight Sparkle's home.
It's so audaciously stupid there is no way it's not going to work.

Twilight eats a peach.
Well, multiple actually.
And weird stuff happens.

I'm so, so sorry.

Thanks to this guy for prereading.
Blame this guy for everything.

Terrifyingly terrible cover art by me. And GIMP.
