This story is a sequel to A Journey Unthought Of.  Every attempt is being made to make this story as open to new readers as possible.

In the months after the events of the first journey to Equestria, Adam and Lyra Heartstrings have enjoyed a life together on the outskirts of a rural Montana town.  Back in Equestria, a Royal Canerlot Wedding has taken place, and the Changeling menace has been repulsed.  As the weeks pass, the Royal Family is rocked by an unexpected death, and in the face of this and the Changeling scare, Equestria is tossed into a state of upheaval.  Events that have been nearly fourteen hundred years in the making are now unfolding in concert, all under the guidance of some mysterious entity, who has been influencing countless individuals, who were in the right place at the right time.  How will Adam, Lyra, Twilight Sparkle and her friends, Princesses Celestia and Luna, and all the others struggle through the potential outbreak of an Equestrian civil war?

When one strives for a goal, whether compelled by personal passion, a sense of atonement, or either with a touch of obsession, how easy is it to lose sight of what is truly important?  When all is said and done, and a dream is accomplished, when does one take inventory of their actions and choices?  Could it be that in the pursuit of the greatest kind of good, one could become the worst kind of monster?  Fortunately, there can be those who stop us from taking the horrific life altering risks that could make even the brightest angel into the most abominable devil.  What can last an eternity but be born in an instant, and can be both so very close but far away.  What can bind both many and few, big or small, the young, the old, and the ancient together?  The answer is the magic of friendship.

This is an appendix to A Journey Unthought of: A man's life in Equestria, however it is not necessary to read the original work to enjoy this story, as it can stand on it's own as a separate piece of fiction that enhances the established canon of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

The battle that defined history for hundreds of years.  It is easy from a modern perspective to assume the outcome was certain; that Princess Celestia would be victorious over the deranged Nightmare Moon.  The universal constant of good triumphing over evil is all but set in stone now, but in the battle these titans waged, the future was impenetrably murky.  Would the day ever shine its warm rays again, or would cold, dark, unforgiving night rise and never end?

This is an appendix to A Journey Unthought of: A man's life in Equestria, however it can be treated as its own stand alone story that enhances the established canon of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

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 is meant to be the first of many Appendices to A Journey Unthought of: A man's life in Equestria.  It is recommended that to avoid confusion, you might read it first rather than this story.

Long before the events of A Journey Unthought of, it was discovered that mankind existed on the very earth that ponies walk.  Darker secrets were still discovered, as humanity created nearly all the species in Equestria and beyond through genetic engineering, and were responsible for the creation of Discord.  How did his creation come to pass?  And what of the mysterious Maiden?  What part does she have to play in being the mother to the two most powerful ponies in Equestria?  

Our narrator has seen the darker side of life; abandoned, homeless, and finally, deemed 'acceptable losses' by a think-tank that is holding him against his will.  After being prepared, he is teleported into the void, where his only means of survival is following the little light ahead of him.  

By chance or purpose, he later finds himself in a world strangely similar but completely alien to him; a world populated by many colored horses who can speak, think, fly, and even do magic.  This is the journal of that man, this is the adventure not known to human ears; it is a journey unthought of: the story of a man's life in Equestria.

Author's Note: This was my first ever completed story, so I apologize in hindsight for the short chapter length, and the one or two cliches you may see.  If this story holds your interest, I've written four appendices and an ongoing sequel, all of which you can find here.  These stories are of much better quality, and some of them enhance the established canon of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic:

The Maiden and the Serpent

The Sorrow and the Temptation

Apocalypse Unbound

Lessons for a Benevolent Tyrant

SEQUEL - AJUO: Revival of Chaos
