There has always been a little voice in Twilight Sparkle's head, whispering dark musings to her. And until her brother's wedding, she has managed to push those bitter thoughts away and focus on the good. She forgives and forgets and holds onto hope.

But when her friends turn their backs on her and her brother cuts her from his life, Twilight finds herself alone, with only the little voice to comfort her.

And it is through anger and hate that has been repressed for so long that Twilight finds the power to rise up. Harmony and Friendship have only brought her pain and suffering. It is time for her to embrace her dark side. No longer will she worry about what others think. Twilight is going to live her life how SHE chooses: without friends, without family, without love and without harmony. She is going to cut loose, have fun, and screw what others think.

For her friends and family, it will soon become apparent that if they don't find a way to mend the damage they've done to the lavender mare...Twilight Sparkle might be lost to them forever.

This story is a sequel to Because Love Conquers All

Equestria has found peace, and Luna and her husband have been able to relax in what they fondly call the Looking Glass World. Everything they have hoped for seems to be coming true: they have friends, family, and Luna is soon to bear a child. But soon enough, the peace is broken as the two are given a mission that will take them to other layers of reality, and they will find themselves hunted by the machines of their worst nemesis as evil once more comes to their world.

Divided into two phases, the first phase tells the story of the strange and layered universe Luna and Scrivener are fighting to protect, while working to raise a child and take care of friends and family. The second phase tells of war on their world, and how nothing comes without a cost. Eventually, all questions are answered, all loose ends tied together, all riddles solved: simply read and allow the story to keep track of itself.

Phase I, Day: Honor, Duty and Family (Chapter 1 - Chapter 38): In which a child is born, explanations are given, friends are recovered... and enemies begin to make themselves known.

Phase II, Night: Ashes, Metal and Corruption (Chapter 39 - Chapter 75): In which Clockwork World begins its campaign in earnest, an impossible story comes to life, old enemies rise... and the Fates themselves conspire against Luna and her love.

A story that mixes together elements of sci-fi, romance, and fantasy. Action and adventure intertwine with darkness and hope that shines through even the deepest despair, in a world where everything seems complex and impossible... but all the answers are clear cut and simple.

The sixth and final story of the Nátta Edda, and the final story of the Iðavöll Trilogy.

Twilight is beyond the title protege. Prodigies are merely brilliant. Twilight has surpassed most of the greatest mages in history before the age of thirty. Twilight's research has changed the landscape itself. She is a living legend who some whisper may be the greatest user of magic to ever exist... perhaps even an equal one day to the semi-divine princesses.

But Twilight's knowledge is not infinite. She has one final lesson to learn. Twilight must learn the Final Law of Magic.
