There is also, a much more unknown troll. But the two work in unison, learning off one another and helping each other when the trolling gets tough. Gabe has some help from his secret alicorn friend.

Life is full of changes, but none of them are quite as disturbing as having a horn pop out of your skull…

Original Lauren Faust canon; non-alicorn Twilight, non-alicorn Cadance, no ascension. Diverges from the cartoon after season 3, with nods to later continuity wherever possible. Contains mature themes.

Because sometimes, a finale isn't the end. Sometimes, pure evil just means you have more to lose.

A changeling's body is the plaything of her mind - but can a changeling ever really change her stripes?

Also because I've wanted to try something approximating an adventure story for a while. If there's any demand for it, I'll continue it properly, otherwise I'll just wrap it up quickly.

Just what is the terribly unlikely canon-shattering secret of Celestia? Once Twilight finds out, life just won't be the same...

A year has passed since the terrible accident that claimed Rarity's life and Twilight Sparkle's sanity. Spike and his remaining friends have tried to put the past behind them, but when a revelation about their demented friend comes to light, they have no choice but to confront the corrupted Element of Magic. They hold Equestria's fate, for if they fail to save their friend, Twilight will enact an apocalyptic genocide upon the ponies she used to know and love, dooming them all to a fate far worse than death.

This is a sequel to my story Friends Forever. It is highly suggested you read that one before this one, as it details Twilight's descent into insanity and how the current situation came about.
