Older than Celestia herself, the Elements of Harmony have been passed down from handler to handler... And though Celestia and Luna's minds have have both long forgot what the Elements brought them, the true history behind them is eternal. A history of sacrifice, loyalty, and the intention of creating a world that two young princesses would be proud to carry on.

This is the story of the Ancient Elements of Harmony... The original seven members.

A single changeling ventures with a weakened body into unfamiliar land.

A simple One-shot for my first contest.

This story is a sequel to Cast in Fire

Harmony. A goal that many have tried for and lost. Only a few nations ever obtained this peaceful state, and through tears of sweat and blood, Equestria became the very icon of it. Dark forces, however, wanted to break the land of ponies into a state of chaos, and will do so by reviving the old foes of Equestria.

Elsewhere, in the lands of Magistrum - the sister country of Equestria - a Pegasus by the name of Kenta Silvercast had received news about his father's disappearance, and soon afterwards, a formal invitation to attend the most esteemed magic school in all of Magistrum: Magistrate Academy. Little did he know, he and his friends were about to get pulled into a wild quest to retrieve a lost book of Star Swirled the Bearded. A book that should never fall into the wrong hands, or else the entire world shall fall into chaos.

When facing Twilight Sparkle, Nightmare Moon was given a choice: redemption or revenge. What if she had chosen the latter? A grim fate awaits Equestria, but in a time of greater strife and conflict, Discord's return is accelerated. While he expected to bring chaos, he did not anticipate that he would end the Longest Night and bring hope and joy back to the land.

Discord struggles to reconcile his nature with his desire for admiration. While Twilight's friends strive to carve a new life in the ever-shifting Equestria, she searches for Celestia, the only one who can bring harmony back to her lands. But Nightmare Moon also seeks her sister in a desperate attempt to find her place in the world. New dangers lurk in the wild and more threaten to fall over Equestria. Nightmare Moon's decision broke the balance of the world. Will Equestria ever turn to peace, or will the spiral of chaos and destruction be the end of everything?

(An alternate history, this story takes the universe established by the canon and explores one possible outcome if Princess Luna had not been redeemed.)

Comments contain huge spoilers. Walk softly.

Special thanks to my pre-readers, MmmandarinOrange and DarkmatterButterflies for keeping my head on, taking the journey of the story, and making it so much better than it would have been if I wrote it alone.

Nightmare Moon always had a backup plan if she ever were defeated; she would slowly regenerate herself and regain her power. The problem is she never expected to come back as a defenseless filly, or to return directly in front of the princesses. As punishment for her past crimes, Luna has given her a sentence far worse than being sent to the moon again. Nightmare Moon must move in with Twilight and report to Luna on the magic of friendship. She's not very happy about it.

By the way I am not trying to rip off Past Sins in any way. Nyx is NOT in this story, this will go in a completely different direction.

This story is a sequel to Know your Mare

Pipsqueak, how the years have gone by. They've watched you grow from an eager young rapscallion into a handsome, strong stallion. All the while they've been moved, touched, and all around attentive... And what they've noticed is that you don't have a girlfriend! And as your guardians, that's something that won't be stood for. Even if they must ravage all of Ponyville, they WILL find a girl just right for their little Pippy.

Rarity has fallen hard for the lavender mare from Canterlot, but there is just one problem, that certain mare from Canterlot is completely oblivious to it all. Thus, Rarity does everything in her power to escape the dreaded friend zone, from skywriting to asking Twilight's parents for help. But will it be enough? Probably not. After all, Twilight is rather naive, but a mare's gotta try.

Happy Holidays all around, and all around Equestria, warmth is abound. From Canterlot, to Trottingham, hearths are ablaze, done by the smallest of fillies and -yes- even the young lamb. As hearts and homes are warmed by the fire, we've brought in two reindeers with a story, for hire. Calm your mind and dream as a kid, as we hear a few stories from Tinsel and his partner Cupid.

NOT RHYMED: Short little one-shots lining as many pairings as I can think of. Each chapter starting with a rhyme by our two Reindeer hosts, Tinsel and Cupid.

Musical numbers in each chapter... Hopefully.

Happy Holidays to all, Merry Christmas, so on and so on.

It's been a very long time since Trixie's been to Ponyville. Such a small-time town shouldn't bother her, but it was the site of her greatest shame and humiliation still. On this return, however, a voice whispers to her of offers to erase the shame, thee undoing, and pain that Twilight Sparkle imparted on her... All she has to do is get the bell.

You'd think that being trapped in stone would mean that, if nothing else, I could get some peace and quiet. Unfortunately, it seems that Celestia has other ideas.

She has appointed these ponies... these 'Keepers', as she calls them, to keep me entertained during my incarceration.

Honestly? I'd prefer the boredom.
