This story is a sequel to A Pony's Heart
Cabbage Patch is the Queen of the Changelings, as much as she hates to admit it. She thought her job would be simple: demonstrate how to live among ponies without stealing identities or love, step in to apply discipline every now and then, and then leave the Changelings to govern themselves or, failing that last point, turn Chrysalis into the kind of Queen the Changelings will accept back.
The problem is, for a race of shapeshifters, Changelings are agonizingly slow about learning new tricks. They’re also not quiet about their disdain for their old Queen. The fact that Equestria is still rife with Changeling paranoia and prejudice doesn’t help matters. Keeping the Changeling race, and the theater company that employs most of the hive, alive has become a full-time job for Cabbage, who wants nothing more than to have a low-maintenance life.
Even with Lorekeeper Turnip faithfully at her side and the political machinations of Princess Luna behind her, is Cabbage destined to set a new record for shortest Changeling Queen reign ever?
Glad to see you are writing a sequel. Btw are you planning to add Thorax and Kevin as well in this story?

In my mind, Thorax and Cabbage fill the same role in regards to the Changelings future, so putting Thorax in this story would be redundant.

Depends on what you want as ending, if you wish Cabbage to remain queen then yeah Thorax would be obsolete. But it you desire a replacement then he would be the best candidate wouldn't he?
Glad to see this story continues again. I wonder how it will cope with cannon season 6 ending. If not then I'm intrigued to see where the story shall take us. Also since when is Trixie able to connect with the hivemind of the changelings?

Uh... Trixie can't.
Did I slip up with my "normal speak" versus telepathy somewhere?
Maybe what I intended to be Trixie quickly deducing the line of conversation from one spoken line came across as her hearing the whole mental exchange?
Well it's sad that the old salty will be leaving the group. But his decision is understandable.
Ah the burden of leadership. Well played have a cookie.
Woh! It has been a while since you last wrote a chapter for this story. Glad it's still running.
Nice way too introduce Starlight Glimmer in your alternate universe. Overall I enjoyed the story. Hmm I wonder if your also going to introduce Thorax and his brother Pharanks.
Awesome story!
I really really hope you do a sequel to this one, it's been awesome
