Based on Letters from an Irritated Princess by Tired Old Man, written in the same format, with the same sort of thing going on more or less, but, with said letters written by the Evil Empress, Daybreaker herself, instead of her goody-goody counterpart. Permission for this was given to me by Tired Old Man himself!
Ah, letters. To some, letters are a means for friendly, long distance communication. To others, they are a way of informing you that you are late on your monthly payment. But, for Empress Daybreaker? Well, they're a way of expressing displeasure, annoyance, evil amusement, ransom demands, and other things.
Basically, they're for making her subjects twitch in fear. Lots of fear. Whether it be of her wrath, or the horrors her evil mischieviousness will bring to her subjects.
I can't wait to see what happens next keep up the good work update more soon
I am loving this... she's not completely unreasonable.. but she is still completely insane and evil.
Oh, dear Goddess. So wrong, and yet so completely hilarious at the same time!
This is surprisingly funny especially the fact that Nightmare Moon's attempts at usurping her sister are an actual game. When you get to Discord they're probably going to say that he's the most insane of everyone.

Oh, the irony.
I can't tell if I like Princess or Empress better...
Aw screw it Empress it is!
And thus the Lyra/Bon relationship begins... Well, one can only hope in this twisted and messed up universe anyways.
Oh my God...
I'm sure that agent Sweetie Drops will soon learn that her expertise is vey valuable in Ponyville because of the Everfree Forest nearby. Lyra will be happy to see her friend again as well.
Daybreaker clearly wants that ponies respect the hierarchy she installed and expects her student to enforce it.
Aunt Orange as Eillot Ness? I approve.
Ah... the IRS, everyone forgets they have agents as well.. Seriously,never forget your taxes.
I feel like this was written a bit too informally for an evil empress, but otherwise it's still good!
Interesting to see that Empress Daybreaker exerts control over some criminal organisations as well. I am eager to see more episode chapters soon.
Alright, so, uhhhhh, actually, expect the first of today's episode chapters to be released sometime between 12-12:30 PM CDT/EST.
...I don't think Twilight is turning out the way Daybreaker hoped. Good for her.
I get the impression that Twilight has the wrong idea about what Daybreaker expects of her.
Empress, you troll. But keep going on like this, you might just be the instigator of your own American Revolution, pony style.

To quote Gibbs: Ya think?
E X T R A C H E E S Y
Daybreaker seems to expect Twilight to show everypony how great the empress student is.
While I enjoy this story, there are two things I can't help nitpicking.
One is that, despite Daybreaker having been an evil god-empress for millennia, Equestria seems more or less the same.
The second is that events are still basically happening as they did in canon. I guess I would have expected more changes or something?
>>Ri2
I will promise that, for at least a few more future episode chapters down the line, things aren't going to happen exactly as they did in the show, and, that there may be a point where I start having more and more chapters be at least somewhat different from how the episodes happened in the show.
...What happened to Gladstone?
I know it's a ways off I'm curious what Magical Mystery Cure will be like in their reality, would Twilight become Midnight Sparkle? Heck I could see Nightmare Rarity and Flutterbat not being undone here, or Day breaker being proud of Sunset Shimmer 's evil plan.
8238896
Who would need Nightmare Rarity, when they already have Nightmare Moon?
That being said, do expect a corrupted variant of somekind for Twi in the future, as well as Daybreaker's approval of Sunset's ambitions, even if she considers the attempt made with demonized Snips and Snails and the Hypnotized Teenagers not to be the best plan Sunset could have come up with.
8238938
Could easily see Nightmare somehow being please with something Rarity did for her and "rewarding" her accordingly.
And yea Daybreaker would approve Sunset's intentions but likely rub it in that Twilight was stronger.
Heh, even evil has loved ones it seems... Evil or not, those two are sisters and they'll stay that way. Though honestly, considering Nightmare hasn't done any really evil acts, it's hard for me to think of her as such. Maybe Daybreaker is delusional. (Wouldn't surprise me.)
It's not so strange that Daybreaker has dated dragons given her firey nature. She does really care for her sister and Nightmare clearly feels the same.

Awwwwwwwwwwww! Your account pic is adorable!!! ^w^
Daybreaker and Nightmare Moon would have preferred to take the dragon's hoard rather than ending up empty hoofed. I wonder how future episodes will go.
8240905
She wanted that crown at least, but, the rest of her Ex's wealth might have pretty nice too. >:D
Daybreaker is even more addicted to cake then Celestia which is hardly surprising.
8241138
I'd say she's simply not ashamed of saying it, that's all. Question of "what will my little ponies think" is not for her.
Just the various conflicts between the Royal Sisters has to be my favorite part of this story...
Aw she does have a heart!
So even Daybreaker has her moments...
And so I went from liking this fic to loving it.
This is sweet and I love the fact that Daybreaker writes letters to her father even if he can't read them.
Well, that's the only person she wouldn't try to intimidate.

Wow, she's a real power-hungry insane tyrant ... I love it! Not only I'm reading it in my mind with her voice, but I think she would actually act this way
HELL YEAH!!
Is she going to make an appearance in this?
It was not very smart of Twilight to jump to conclusions. Daybreaker is right in te fact that Twilight needs to educate town on things like zebras. I doubt that Daybreaker is pals with Mayor Mare in the way Celestia is in Letters from an irritated princess.
Daybreaker and Zecora? ...Okay, I can honestly say I did not see that one coming. (Still, it's sweet that Daybreaker is going to try and find her sister somepony.)
Awww This was unexpectedly touching.
sacrificed
Shouldn't it be their instead?

Oh! Huh. Thanks for catching that for me.
Alright, so, expect three episode chapters tomorrow, on Celestia Day.
...Or, actually, I'll go for releasing two on Thursday, two on Friday, and two on Saturday.
My advice Empress, deal with them the same way the Klingons dealt with Tribbles, hunt 'em down.
