Changelings feed on love. Ponies have a Princess of Love. Even though she failled at the Canterlot wedding, evil plans are worth trying again.
Chrysalis wants to steal Cadance's identity again.
Cadance insists that she do a better job of it. This time, she will not stand for sub par acting.
Why is the first thing I think of ether have Chrysalis watch flurry or do court when Cadence is done the teaching part

Well, if no pony wants the job, then I guess a princess could just draft a babysitter.
more alarming part, cadence captured chrysi without exerting effort outside of making the necklace... yet shining is losing sleep following smoke
I found it kinda weird that Cadance was totally okay with choking Chrysalis (I know she is an enemy, but still) just like that, but I guess this makes it a little bit fairer.

Yea
Well looks like chrysalis is holding on to a few cards.
Wonder what she's up to?
Nice read. Interested in where this is going.
This was really nice on Ocellus's part, considering that Chrylisa just tried to strangle her.
Rough
Needs ponification.
So why does Cadence have a changeling eye?
Here's a scary thought: this is an independent changling that has out-Cryssied Cryssie.

That is scary.
The eye is how she sees whatever Chrysalis is doing.
I understand that it is how she sees what Chrysalis is doing. How does she have it? What is it? It's not a normal pony eye.
Cadance: "Well, it is a fun game..."
Almost like there was no queen present...
Maybe the hive should have kept a few under-queens around in case the queen is unavailable.
Wasn't it you who ran away after being offered the place as a queen?
Chrysalis didn't do anything to Flurry, did she?
At least nothing Cadance noticed yet...
Cadance: "Ruling an empire is hard work, and if I can send someone else to do some of the work for me.."
Chrysalis: "Like entertaining your husband?"
Cadance: "Don't even think about it!"
Chrysalis: "Too late..."
I almost expected Chrysalis getting in rage about "this filthy traitor" just from hearing his name.
Normal honey (then the hive must be really struggling right now) or for some reason the royal jelly?
Woah, this story just got a lot more intricate. I love it
That was a good chapter goodluck with the next one.
this story has a rather interesting concept. I have read all available chapters and didn't notice it. Of course, I am aware that there may not be a continuation, but now I will wait for it.
Chrysalis: "For now. But for how long?"
Are they trying to turn themselves into Changeling Queens and Kings?
I'm sure that would lead to interesting results.
Good chapter!
At first I thought those rouge Changelings just wanted to become powerful for the sake of power, but now it almost looks like they just wanted that power to eventually overthrow Chrysalis and become better rulers for the hive.
