Princess Cadence is a lonely filly who has been shielded and protected all her life as a princess and member of the dwindling race of Sacred Alicorns. She longs for a friend her age to play with, and as a young teen she is sent to stay in Canterlot where her Aunt Celestia would personally mentor her in developing her magic. There she hopes to finally have the freedom she longs for and find somepony to be her friend. Instead, she is asked to foal sit for one of her aunt's royal adviser's fillies who may just be as lonely and reclusive as she.

This is the story of how Princess Cadence learns that the ability to give love cannot be complete without finding love for yourself, and sometimes it is found when you least expect it.

"It's been three weeks. Three weeks, but it may as well have been three years, a lifetime, an eternity."

When her oldest and dearest friend falls ill, Twilight is forced to cope and reckon with the guilt and heartache that comes with the dwindling life of her favorite little dragon.

In an effort to keep her mind occupied, Twilight Sparkle decides to delve once again into the grand mysteries of Pinkie Pie. This time, Twilight's focus is on her claims of growing up on a rock farm: like so many things related to Pinkie Pie, the idea that somepony could grow rocks as an agricultural product makes absolutely no sense. However, the investigation eventually leads Twilight to a rather... surprising discovery.

This is the first story in The Petriculture Cycle.

Queen Chrysalis, disguised as Princess Cadence, is hard at work preparing for the invasion of Canterlot. Over the last few days, she's been carefully milking Shining Armor, captain of the guard, for all the information on the capital's defenses she can get her hooves on.

But one such defense leaves her confused and curious. A brief conversation with Shining later finds the changeling queen trapped, terrified, and in for the wildest ride of her life.

For some, it all started as a relaxing day at the spa. For another, it started with a space bridge malfunction. When a mysterious creature crash lands into the woods on the outskirts of Ponyville, Twilight Sparkle and the bearers of the Elements of Harmony must investigate the circumstances that brought this life form to Equestria, and face an unyielding force of evil that threatens their entire world. (warning: Mild language, violence)

Twilight is invited to Canterlot to compete with some of the greatest magicians in the world for the Moonstone Cup, a prestigious award for the most powerful and skillful magicians, unicorn and otherwise. Can she win? What sort of competition will she face?
