Happy Halloween/Nightmare Night to you all!

Every new initiate to Starlight Glimmer's town has to spend the first week with the founder in her cottage. There's a deep dark secret to this, of course. Fluttershy's about to find out the hard way.

This story is a sequel to Danganronpa vP: Harmony of Despair

A few years after Twilight's coronation, Starlight Glimmer decides to take a well-earned vacation from running the School of Friendship. She uses the Crystal Mirror to travel to the human version of Equestria and surprises her friend Sunset Shimmer with a visit.

However, her vacation is quickly and rudely interrupted. Starlight soon finds herself stranded in a remote mountain valley with Sunset and fourteen other humans, with no memory of how they got there. A strange black and white bear appears to tell them that this is now their new, permanent home; the only way to leave is to kill someone and get away with it in a trial.

With only her wits and a fraction of her usual magical capabilities available to her, Starlight vows to do whatever it takes to get herself, Sunset and the others to safety. Nopony- er, nobody's going to die on her watch! But the Mastermind has their own devious plans...

Starlight Glimmer has just reformed and is now Princess Twilight Sparkle's pupil. Starlight knows about and tries to hide her past, and her feelings, but when she puts them off for too long, she seems to hurt herself in a way that nopony is comfortable with.

12/27/22: Yes, finally, a story I wrote was featured on the homepage.

The Society of Secret Sorcery. A domain of magic bent on helping Equestria in the shadows, or so its members believe. After causing terror in several cities, Twilight Sparkle takes charge in finding the culprits. The good news is Twilight doesn't have to deal with the society alone. Moondancer and Sunset Shimmer, one a former member, the other an infiltrator, are more than willing to help. Working together, they must find out the identity of the mysterious leader and put an end to the society.

Takes place at a random point after the Season 7 finale.
