Familiars, the companions that we summon to be by our sides, to be there for us when no one else will, to defend us when no one else can, can take any shape or form, relevant to our past, present, or future. Such as is their duty, to ensure our prosperity. -Starswirl The Bearded

Familiarus, an age old spell just recently rediscovered that summons up the warrior of your soul, to stand by your side, and serve you till the end of your days. Loyal to a fault, they will do anything for you without question, as is their purpose.

But what would you do if your familiar took on the shape of your most hated past? What if it looked like a horrible monster that you had hoped was gone forever?

What would you do, with a Familiar Nightmare?

It all started with a simple question: What if? What if Luna had ponies who noticed the beautiful nights she created. Would she have turned into Nightmare Moon? Would she and Celestia rule together for a thousand years? Would Twilight meet the rest of the bearers of the elements and become friends with them? Now, with the help of a new magic spell that she created, Twilight is going to find out!

Welcome to the Lunar Republic!

A brony is transported into Equestria, but he finds himself in the body of a huge wolf. Can a carnivorous predator really befriend ponies, herbivorous equines, or will his new predatory instincts and the ponies instinctive fear of him make it impossible? His strange situation does not dampen the joy of actually being in Equestria, but that changes as an alien hatred starts gnawing at his mind...

There have always been 2 Princesses of Equestria. In recent years, two more have joined the Royal Family.

They rule with harmony and grace, and are loved by all Equestria. However, there once was a third with the two sisters.

And HE still lives.

Luna did not bear the stars once upon a time. That was his job. He shaped the stars into art. Into beautiful constellations that bedazzled the ponies who looked upon it.

So where did he go?

In the magical land of Equestria, two alicorn sisters raise the Sun and the Moon every day to give the world a night and day cycle, basic for the survival of life. There are also two alicorns who rule over two very core aspects of life and harmony itself. Those are Love and Friendship. While not as ancient as the two sisters, all princesses are essential to the world's balance.
This balance is also sustained by the hard-working ponies, who make the seasons change and manage the weather to fit their needs, so everypony has enough food and water, and every animal is also attended to assure that any of them are caught in the changes of seasons.

But what about the planet itself? What about Mother Nature?
This is the question that Gaia asks when she arrives to this foreign world. After so much work her son persuaded her to take a long vacation in Equestria, saying that she needed one and assuring her that he would be in charge now, and she must take a break. But what can a several billion-year old alicorn possibly do to pass her time in this land?

After Chaos left Agrabah, he was content knowing that he restored the balance of order and Chaos. Left to find another place to save from boredom, he encounters Equestria. The order outweighs the chaos the most in Canterlot, and that is not something that Chaos will let slip by without his intervention.

sequel to: Second Chances and the Cost of Life

Twilight lived and died a hero. Her body reanimate by Death itself to act as its reaper. But Death cannot grant life, and she fell in a way worse than before. She became a monster, but was stopped by her own friends.

She slept once again, but Death needs her. So it makes deals, stretches the rules, just to get her to live once again. But living again is difficult, particularly when Light itself remakes you.

Twilight has a new life, and a duty that must be done. The only question;

Will she manage to live a new life, instead of her old one? It's going to be hard. Time to see.

A human wakes up in the everfree before the events of nightmare moon. Or adult Luna and Celestia. Oh, and he’s a bird. A magical bird, but still a bird.

This story is a sequel to Divine Entertainment

Atlas, Discord and Starswirl have safely arrived in the newly founded Equestria. The ponies that came before them already built up quite a few flourishing cities, setting aside their differences and living together in harmony.

Close to one such newly founded town, Atlas built what he personally insists on calling a "secret lab" where he conducts research and experiments to gain a better understanding of runic magic. Assisted by his adopted son Discord and his scholarly friend Starswirl, they'll have to recreate this lost art if Atlas wants to be prepared for the foretold showdown between the greek gods. All while keeping an eye out for the events that are supposed to bring the true Equestria into existence.

This sequel story will focus mostly on Atlas' research into runes and the timeline that is known to him. Therefore I've decided to replace the adventure tag from the last story with slice of life, although there might still be some adventure-y chapters.
