After getting blasted by a wave of happiness, Sombra wakes up months later with a completely different personality and is forced to live with the memories of what he did and what he was. However, with a little patience, and a lot of help, maybe he can change that, and become something a bit better.

Fun Fact: This is the first story (and currently one of only three) on this website tagged with Redheart and Sombra.

Not every tale has a happy ending.

This is the story of one colt, now an old stallion, and his journey to the north in hope of an adventure and a chance to get his Cutie Mark. It was an archaeological expedition to the tundras that once held the great Crystal Empire. It was the discovery of King Sombra's tomb. How could it get any more exciting than that?

One morning, while Spike is drooling over a scrumptious looking gem, he is told a very confusing thing. Twilight might like Pinkie.

Her inability to form coherent sentences when the pink mare is around sure seems to lead to that assumption, but assuming isn't enough.

Twilight needs answers, and science is just the way to get them.

What makes a good mare become a monster? More often than not, it is a slow progression of many decisions and unfortunate events over a long period of time. Nightmare Moon is one of the most powerful and feared beings in Equine history, but what ultimately caused Princess Luna to embrace the darkness and try to blot out all light with eternal night?

This is an appendix to A Journey Unthought of: A man's life in Equestria, however it can be treated as its own separate story that enhances the established canon of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. This story was written before the Season 4 Premiere took place.
