    When Twilight Sparkle gets a letter from the head of the Royal Archaeological Society of Canterlot, Rarity's world is turned upside down.  Soon the fashion-conscious unicorn finds herself barrel-deep in mud, bugs, sand, snow, angry natives, and mysterious magic, not to mention embroiled in ancient history and secret plots.  The reluctant adventuress will soon discover things she never wished to know about the world beyond Equestria, starting with bull-headed explorers, political beaucracy and heading only downhill from there.

    Will she make it out of this humid, icky, sticky situation head held high, or will she fall victim to jungle fever and weep for her lost fabulosity?

    After her life was turned upside-down by Deathwing burning down Ponyville and Equestria getting flooded with adventurers from all of Azeroth, Carrot Top struggles to save her farm from bankrupcy. Opportunities for extra money are everywhere, but the world now plays by new rules. Can she learn them quickly enough? Or is there a different solution altogether waiting for her?

    A tie-in story to Capn-Chryssalid's World of Ponycraft

    Crossover with World of Warcraft, obviously.

    Synopsis:

    In the aftermath of the Changeling incursion of Canterlot during the marriage of Shining Armour and Princess Mi Amore Cadenza, Equestria gears itself for war against the Changeling menace.  Against a foe that can take the shape of anypony, assume their life, and undermine Equestria from within, the Royal Pony Sisters create a new institution to monitor their Royal Guard for any Changeling corruption, cowardice, and incompetence: the Commissariat.  As total war rages across the land one hero stands out above the rest; Commissar Blueblood, hero of Equestria.  Or at least that's what the propaganda says.  The truth, as ever, is far more complex, as the esteemed Blueblood is merely looking for an easy and sedate life.  Unfortunately, fate has a habit of throwing him into increasingly dangerous and suicidal missions, which he must survive with a combination of self-preservation, lying, and sheer blind luck, even if doing so only fuels his soaring reputation!

    Author's Note:

    Alright, please read this bit.  This is an MLP/Ciaphas Cain (Warhammer 40,000) crossover, sort of...  You see, rather than try and mash these two very different universes together in a clumsy way I have instead transcribed the writing style, character personalities, and a handful elements from the Ciaphas Cain novels into MLP, most obviously transplanting Ciaphas Cain's personality into Blueblood (don't worry hopefully it'll make sense) and the existence of the Commissariat.  This will be firmly rooted in MLP, so no power-armoured ponies and no oppressive grim darkness.  I suppose this story might have some dark elements in it, since we are talking about total war, but certainly not to the level that 40k is infamous for.  At any rate, this means you won't need an encyclopaedic knowledge of the 40k universe to follow the story, or even any knowledge of 40k at all.

    Will add tags and characters as they appear in the story (or remove them where necessary, characters may be relegated to side characters and therefore removed from tags as the story progresses)

    Cover art done by me.

    Rarity was certain her troubles with magical gemstones had ended, but an unexpected royal visit soon convinces her otherwise. In order to save an ailing Princess, stop an ancient menace, and avert a disaster that threatens the survival of a lost tribe of ponies, Rarity, Blueblood, and a brave group of friends will travel to strange and foreign lands, and into the fathomless depths beneath tormented seas. In her quest to uncover the secrets of the Abyssal Forge, Rarity will have to use all her charm, wit, and skill—and rely on allies old and new—as the unlikeliest of ponies once again attempts to save the world in style.

    The star system Omega Centauri was just another oddity on a map to scientists in the not too distant future.  However when they found the star was orbiting an earth-sized, earth-like planet instead of a black hole as its motion had suggested, a mission was scrambled to investigate this most unusual of celestial behaviors.

    Hamstrung by politics, and nearly crippled before it began, the 'Lone Ranger' mission was reduced to just one crew member and left to his own devices.

    These are the logs of Arrow 18 and its lone commander.  This information is classified TOP SECRET by the Global Space Agency.  

    Do NOT tell the princess.

    Humans.

    Truth or myth? Ancient lost civilization or just an old pony's tale?

    No pony has ever seen one, and most haven't even heard of them. But Lyra knows that these wonderful creatures are more than just old legends, and she's going to find out... and possibly drive her roommate insane in the process.
