A young dragon named Smolder was chosen by the Dragon Lord Ember to represent the dragons at Princess Twilight's School of Friendship. Smolder isn't too happy about going, but if she's being ordered to go then the least she could do is get to say goodbye to a few dragons before she leaves. Most importantly, she wants to say goodbye to her brother, Garble, but something tells her he's less than happy about her leaving as she is.

In the before times, young and newborn changelings were taken care of in nurseries by changelings whose jobs were to take care of them.

However, things have changed, and now other grown-up changelings can take care of their own young.

Ocellus, one young changeling who's spent all of her life in a nursery, will leave to be taken care of by two grown-up changelings, her actual parents. How will she cope with this change?

It's time for the Royal Canterlot Gala, where the Royalty, the wealthy and their friends all party at the Canterlot Palace!
This time, Princess Twilight has invited both the Dragon Lord Ember and King Thorax, and each can bring one guest as well!

Ember and Thorax forcesconvinces Garble, a hotheaded dragon of the dragon lands, and Pharynx, the tough big brother of the Changelings, to be the plus ones.

How will either of them handle a social gathering as big as this one?

Having spent time at the Royal Guard Academy, not long after finishing the School of Friendship, Gallus arrives at the Canterlot Palace for his first day as an officer in the Royal Guard. He was ordered to start late to visit Griffonstone and now has to wait in order to meet the Captain.

While he waits, his guardian Grandpa Gruff makes an unexpecting visit to talk with him, although because of how badly their already rough relationship ended, Gallus is rather reluctant to do so.

News of Princess Twilight Sparkle's School of Friendship spreads across Equestria, and many young ponies want to be students. However, the high demand means not every one of them can get in. In order to see who would be idol students who'd benefit the most from such a school, all applicants are required to write an essay about themselves and why they want to go.

This story follows one of those young ponies, Sandbar, as he figures out what to write about in his essay and maybe discover why he wants to enrol in the school in the first place.
