This story is a sequel to Project: Sunflower
After the events of Project: Sunflower, Erin Olsen has returned to Ponyville, happy to pursue her studies in magic. After everything that happened the year before, she's looking forward to spending her days studying and having fun with her friends.
Meanwhile, on the newly discovered world of Harmony, humans and ponies work together to study this strange new world. However, their arrival causes something ancient to begin stirring. Something that may end up changing everything.
Erin will need all of her courage, all of her cleverness and, of course, all of her friends to see herself through what happens next.

Yey it's out!
Woohoo! Age of Wonders 3 and a new Project Sunflower story, what a great day!
I am way too excited that this came out. Nice work setting the scene in Ch. 1.
Looks like things are going to being interesting for Erin, and I'm guessing the prologue is the new world they found? I look forward to see what happens Hoopy.
Alicorn OC, instant downvote. (j/k
)
woohoo! a sequel! i may have to go re-read project sunflower now
Holy fucking shiiiiiiiiiiit (sang by a choir of angels) is sunflower!!!!

And as I logged into FimFiction today a chorus of Angels sang out from upon High and told me of the second coming... Ok, im only exagerating... A little.
I can already tell this is going to be good.
Well, that was f
cking ominous.
On to Ch. 2

I think I've made myself clear...
Also: Yeah! Sequels!
*squeeing intensifies*
...there's more Project Sunflower...
This receives the rare treatment of getting a fav star before I read it
4161514 We're working hard on the next two chapters.
Woop! Woop! Woop! Woop! This show is on the road!
Awwww yeah!!! Instant thumbs up and favorite!
And so it begins...
I've been looking forward to this. I'm sure both aspects of the story will be excellent. And hopefully, after this, Project Harmonics will have some means of detecting unknowably ancient, slumbering, chthonic entities before drones start running over the flowers.
It's been quite a long wait, at last the sequel is out!
Well, a timeless hivemind, that's not going to be trouble at all.
At. All.
hahababaabbabahjajabab WOO!
The Overmind is not pleased.
I, however, am squeeing.

Heh, well... it does kind of tie into what Lyra said at the end of Project Sunflower:

Well, we still don't know if this sleeping creature is even evil. It could be some kind of elemental, or god, or just a very old life form. I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

So, just to make sure, this isn't going to be the first time she's gone back to Equestria as an Alicorn right? If not though then this sequel feels more like "side-stories" might just be mandatory reading for certain parts. I'm not bothered by it since I read the side-stories.
Still, nice start. Looking forward to seeing
chapter 2.EDIT: I could of sworn chapter one was named "Prologue" so I'll update my comment with "Looking forward to seeing chapter 3."
(Prologues aren't chapters. And 'Chapter 1' was certainly in the style of a prologue than anything else.)
I wonder how well Changelings would survive on a non-magical planet, with their odd diets and all.
Edit: Oh sorry, for a related note, I'm curious as to how they'll get Erin to Harmony, I'm assuming one or all of the mane 6 go there.
Yes! I can't wait for the this! /)^3^(\
Well, of course the other planet was gonna be inhabited. But Erin mission is to learn about magic in Equestria, I don't see how she will be of much use unless she has been living ten years like a fakelicorn or something.
This may be the fastest any story has ever hit the top of the featured box
YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYESYES!
I want MOOOOOORRRRRREEE.....but i can patiently wait.
At least i hope we can see that conversation between the Princesses and Sunflower next chapter.
Yeeeesssssssss
waiting for more, excited like a lil kid.
*ahem* SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
That is all.

Past Sins was there within 5 mins.
But that's Past Sins.
I now have a great incentive to go back and re-read Project: Sunflower before diving into this new serving.
Now that she is a real pony, that horn and wings are gonna give her trouble. OH and Pinkie Pie will want to do her a welcome part, and Rarity will want to make her new dresses. Rainbow Dash will wasnt to teach her to fly, and AJ will want to hock her up with her brother. I bet the CMC will want to show her off to their friends, and the whole "Sunflower is a fake princess now" thing will be awkward.
It begins...
Oh yes yes yes! Tears in my eyes man, tears!
>>>However, their arrival causes something ancient to begin stirring.>>>
Why is everything ancient automatically an evil douchebag? Seriously, just once I'd like some ancient monster to pop up and be all like, "Oh hello there! I was just sleeping for a few million years and lost track of time. Might I trouble you for a cup and tea?"

'Idea smacks me in face'
THANK YOU!
Ugh a dream sequence, well that was a waste of a chapter.
I am actually vibrating with joy.
Also, the term "Ponyville wifi" scares me, due to the implications of Pinkie having access to the internet.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!~
You missed her? How about me or her other loyal fans?! And you adding fire lizards... Just, how beautiful will this get? I was looking foreword to this more then the Sequel to past sins!
Project: Sunflower is, I think, my favorite piece of writing I've encountered during my stay with the MLP fandom, and the gold standard I hold my own work to (it's severely lacking). I read the whole thing after the fact, so being here for the start of the sequel has me on pins and needles made of excitement.
So now we play the waiting game...
