We all know the story of how Twilight learned of the fact that Nightmare Moon was returning and how she both found and became one of the Bearers of the Elements Of Harmony, but what if there was another legend she read before that. What if, the legend of 'The Phoenix Princess' was also real. And what if the legend was centered around Twilight herself.

Well Read on and find out how 'The Phoenix Princess' and 'The Legend Of Nightmare Moon' are linked and why it seems that they are converging on Twilight Sparkle.

Pinkie Pie had a simple plan. Bake a very special dessert for the very special Unicorn she wanted as her very special Somepony. Of course, with Pinkie Pie, nothing is ever simple. Especially not when a mischievous Draconequus loans her a new recipe book, that he SWEARS is safe.

Ponyville's #1 party planner will sure have her work cut out for her.

Sal Carmine Manchester (they/them) is just an average guy. They work a horrible job, they hang out with their friends, they hate the way that their face looks when they look in the mirror, they hoard all physical forms of music. Normal human being things.

But when their employer forces them to work with Twilight Sparkle, they meet Spike, and realize that they and the dragon have a lot in common. Now equipped with the horrible knowledge that their identity doesn't match their body, Sal must find a way let their inner dragon breathe freely without getting laid off. Because if they lose their job, they'll be sent back to Earth, and lose contact with the one creature that understands their burning soul.

AU where Spike has grown up and molted by the start of season six, ponies are commonly 4 feet tall, and Equestria has had contact with Earth for a few years.

Thornycroft has a dream: start a railroad. If she can’t get a charter in Equestria, there’s Earth—America is big, and needs railways.

. . .

America has railways, and building or buying one is too expensive anyway, so she can start a truckway instead, shipping oversized loads a few illegitimate thaums at a time.

It’s not like DOT inspectors even know what a thaum is.

Having a pony roommate was an adjustment; there was a lot about Earth she had to get used to . . . and a lot of ideas she'd brought with her that you had to get used to.

She was a heck of a cook, though, and didn't mind sharing, so you were more than willing to let her have the kitchen.

And then you came home and discovered that she was making butter. Which she must have known she could buy at the grocery store if she wanted butter.

Same continuity as The Queen of the Dark.

Long ago, the old world was crumbling around the young Princess Celestia, but she had a duty to uphold: to confront Princess Luna.

It didn't go exactly as planned.

I was always different. A failing body and a mind that always felt incompatible. And with my body failing me, I died. Only, I didn't die. Instead, I returned home as the prophecy had foretold a thousand years ago. Where my mind matched my body, and my body matched my mind. But arriving in this new world set into motion an ancient conflict, one which I would be thrown head first into where I would learn who I truly was meant to be.

This story is a sequel to Steamboat to Nowhere

Following his arrival in Ponyville, Thomas awoke the next day, ready to continue on his way to Tall-Tale once he was all packed up, and while he received good news from Happy Storage World that his truck, trailer, everything in them, and a little bonus surprise were all ready and waiting for him, and his Family were relieved that he was ok following the steamboat accident, he receives bad news from Tall-Tale, and now no longer has a job waiting for him. Dejected, he contemplates what he's going to do next, when an old family friend reaches out to him, and says he wants to offer him a more permanent job. Intrigued, Thomas goes and meets the man, one Mr. Edward Strauss, at his home outside of Ponyville, and he offers Thomas a job in the Smokey Mountains in Western Equestria, near the town of Spirit Water Forest. After some deliberation, Thomas decides to accept the job, little knowing that he's about to embark on the journey of a lifetime

(This story picks up immediately after "Steamboat to Nowhere" leaves off, and will still contain some references to the horrors of Thomas's life while he was still addicted to drugs, and encounters with his demons, but nothing too explicit. Story will also contain some mild profanity, as well as a scene of senseless destruction caused by a drunk driver, but aside from this, it'll be pretty normal, almost wholesome. Also, the later parts of this story, and the ones that follow, will draw heavy inspiration from the lore of Great Wolf Lodge, the 2022 animated movie "The Great Wolf Pack: A Call to Adventure", and the sequel TV show, "Tales of the Great Wolf Pack". I would have tagged it as such, but no tags for these exist yet)
