A year has passed since Twilight Sparkle and the rest of "The Mane Six" defeated The Nightmare Queen, and life finally seems to be settling down for the girls in the brand new UN- administered settlement of Equestria. However, sinister forces unexpectedly unleash an ancient Equestrian warlord endowed with extraordinary powers, and Twilight soon finds herself (along with some new friends and allies) on a race around the world to save The Elements of Harmony from themselves! As she fights for and against the people she loves, Twilight seriously begins to wonder: is friendship really all that it's cracked up to be? The sequel to Friendship is Magic Redux and a humanized reinterpretation of "The Return of Harmony, Parts 1 & 2".

This story's "Rolling Stone Cover Shoot" beautifully and masterfully rendered by Broke Pegasus ^-^

I don't know... did you want him to? :rainbowderp:
Seriously tho, thx again for reading! :) I will try to keep updating regularly, the next few chapters have a lotta detail! Will try to answer all of your questions as we go on, I really hope you're still enjoying my quite uninspired, quite unprofessional mess of words!!! :D

Me bad

np! Thx for getting involved with the ridiculous plot, as it were! :pinkiehappy: Thx again for reading!
edit: oh, next chapter will be up soon, its very um, detail oriented :)

I loved the stress ball scene--I really must get one...

The segment with the king's prayer was so beautiful--and this chapter was brilliant in general, it reminded me of Tolkien and L'Engle, particularly the end of Wrinkle in Time. :heart:

Love it! Love the fast pacing. And the Kiss at your own peril apron is amazing. :)

Update:

Um, so if you noticed this has been on hold for a while, so sorry 'bout that! :( Got really sick, and then I started writing/developing the characterizations for the upcoming Crystal Empire Redux, so I had to kinda go back and "streamline" this story (or at least all of the unpublished chapters) to fit The Crystal Empire... um, now that I'm coming back I really will try to get back up to my usual 1 chapter a week, let's see if I can really do it! ;D However, sadly, I've come to realize that The Crystal Empire Redux (set to be released sometime, i don't know, say after the season 4 finale) will unfortunately be the third and last installment of this my Redux Trilogy... yeah, you know, I never really meant for these stories to cover the show's events all the way up 'til their end {knocking on wood} :pinkiegasp:

Anyways, The Crystal Empire should bring the Redux arc to its (hopefully, sort of) thrilling conclusion, and its end will roughly coincide with the personal transformation of Twilight Sparkle in the show into the princess that she is now. Thanks again to everyone who has stuck by me all this time, I hope you have fun, and, please, stick around, folks... we're not done yet, baby, "real life" ken kiss dis pony'z azz! :pinkiehappy: XD peace

EDIT: Oh, since I've already started, I was wondering whether you all were interested in The Crystal Empire Redux being released all at once, or like this now in serial form so you can react as we go along with the chapters... drop a comment down below... above :? Forward, not backwards, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards the future! :O

Sincerely,
Paiohelohelo (or, at least her ghostwriter... "Ghostwriter!" >:D Sorry, I just couldn't help myself... also, I can't help but think of the jingle for Crossfire when I try to sing the correct theme...)

Sisters... the best Christmas present :) and Birthdays, too! {squee} :pinkiehappy:

hmmm- hmmm- hmmm- hmmm- hmmmmmmm, my little poooonyyyyyy, aaaaaah- aaaaaaah- aaaaaaah- aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah….

:pinkiehappy: I love it. Great intro.

So, the chapter was good, but I think you're using italics too much. It's kind of distracting since I naturally emphasize anything in italics when I read. But that's really my only complaint.

I probably wouldn't mind it being released chapter by chapter. But whatever you want is great. Can't wait for part 3! :yay:

Thanks fer reading! ^-^ I was totally wondering about the italics usage too, thank you for being constructive in your criticism, i really do appreciate the chance to make better stories fer y'all! :pinkiehappy:

As you've probably noticed, I have not written the story for a long time (I apologize mucho mucho po!!); fear not, I have not abandoned it, but season 4 has already kinda "rattled" my canon so i've decided to wait until the season is over, and then I will publish both the rest of the chapters and "The Crystal Empire Redux" (which is currently in progress) before Season 5 as soon as I can safely account for the great expansions in the show's canon accordingly in order to produce a fitting ending to the Redux series.

Um, I'm also looking for an artist to do a commish for the cover pic for "The Crystal Empire"; I need somebody who can do anime/human stuff; nothing too racy plz! :pinkiegasp: msg me in private if ur interested; Deviantart examples are always appreciated!

Thanks again to my fams and to everybody who have been so very nice, and thanks again to TheColorGreen for the analysis! See y'all soon yo! :D

Everyone in the cover looks so depressed...

Just how bad is Sunset's pesto allergy?

Hey, uh, Are you okay? I'm new here but it seems you haven't been around for a really really long time. Hope you're alright!
