When Applejack's nailed by a falling rowan tree whilst taking part in the Running of the Leaves, she thinks it's bad enough being, well, nailed by a falling rowan tree. But when a raven lands on her windowsill and tells her to go somewhere that sort of doesn't exist in two days or she'll snuff it with a fairly sizeable explosion, and Ditzy Doo gets dragged into the mess, everyone's favourite orange farm pony has to go a-questin'. This can only end well...

I hope to get this into Equestria Daily. If you're reading, ED Prereaders, please send me a note on this account telling me where and when to meet you with the fifty thousand in non-sequential used notes.

Clockwork was a relic left to rot in the Royal Vaults, brought to life by a stroke of fate. As it is sent into the Void between worlds by the same event that gave it life, it soon discovers that there are other worlds besides it own. And they are all in danger. The Black Tide is spreading into every reality, determined to convert everything in existence into itself. To combat this threat, Clockwork must enlist the help of Twilight Sparkle, every one of her.

Prior knowledge of these stories is recommended.

Zenith Chaser is a climber. It says so in her cutie mark. But the world of Equestria isn’t that big, so there are no more mountains to climb, and now she simply dragged Pinkie Pie along to climb an iceberg.

What happens when a man obsessed with magic gets visited by an alien species of unimaginable power and, for some reason, is given three wishes?

He re-writes reality, that's what happens.

This story isn't about him. It's about the people affected by him, and by his actions. A world no longer like our own, where magic works and where, suddenly, humanity has company.
