Twilight is the one pony in the lunar settlement to ever graduate from the Divine Princess's School for Gifted Unicorns. But she's back home now, where the colonists are living under the oppressive hoof of officials from Equestria below. One day, she's called on to fix the spell-nexus that keeps the settlement alive with its magic, only discovers that it's alive... and it calls itself "Luna."

And Luna wants Twilight to lead a revolution.

Inspired by Robert Heinlein's The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress, but not a crossover in setting or characters. Expect further updates later this summer.

Twilight wakes up with a serious head-ache caused by her horn spontaneously growing due to a sudden increase in her magical power. Nopony seems to have an answer for it, but it has attracted the attention of an unusually powerful militant foreign nation intent on her capture and execution. When a string of events lands Twilight before Celestia's father himself he tasks her and her newfound magic with tying up some loose ends he'd left behind long ago, ultimately connecting with this foreign nation's goals. With their powerful enemy baring down on Equestria, intent on taking it in a stranglehold, Twilight and her friends have little other choice than to travel the world and hunt for the rest of Celestia's family and end several thousands of years worth of feuding to prevent the war coming to Equestria before they themselves are caught.

It's been eighty-nine days since the Day of Darkness, and Twilight Sparkle is still on her own. Eighty-nine days since she talked to anyone other than herself. Regardless of how lonely she feels, she prefers the company of herself to the vicious "lurkers", as she calls them, roaming around outside of her library. Whatever friendly, loving creatures they were before the Day of Darkness, something changed them. Something created these insane creatures, and nothing, not even Twilight, can stop them. All Twilight can do is live — live to fight another day.

This story is a sequel to Of Solicitude

Ten years after a massive war, Equestria has changed. The Empire now rules over all, giving peace and prosperity to those that deserve it, but some are against this new rulership.
The CMC, a small, raggedy group of smugglers working for the Apple family, are caught red-hoofed by an Imperial patrol. As the friends fight for their lives, they learn about themselves, each other, and the world they now reside in.
Meanwhile, in Canterlot, Emperor Blueblood has amassed a massive fleet and is preparing to smash what is left of the rebellion under the oppressive hoof of his Empire.

As the princess's protégé and one of Ponyville's most well-known and influential ponies, Twilight Sparkle has always enjoyed a comfortable life. Together with her friends she has battled and triumphed over dark ponies, dragons, and mischievous spirits. But what happens when her friends desert her and she finds herself hunted by her very mentor after she is wrongfully accused of an attempt on her life? Will she be able to overcome the desertion of her life-long friends? Will she be able to bear the burden of being an outcast? And more importantly, can she unmask the pony behind these acts before they get away with the Princess's murder? It's a race against time to find the culprit before Twilight herself gets caught and subjected to justice in this suspense and pony filled story!

We all wear a mask called composure, beneath which hides a heart that twists with guilt and hidden feelings. Regal as she is, Princess Celestia is no exception. What might be revealed should circumstances cause this mask to slip - or break?

Set several years after the potential conclusion to the series.
