This story is a sequel to Two Changelings, in a World of Foes


Skia, Thoraxis's adopted daughter, is missing. To make matters worse, after her encounter with the wretched Vile Faux, Skia's memories have been taken from her, permanently, and to the point that she no longer even knows her own name, much less her father. To make matters irrevocably worse, a year has now passed, and she remains gone without a trace.

Thoraxis and his friends continue to search for her without pause, though their hopes dwindle less and less with every passing day. Thoraxis blatantly refuses to give up, and his unremitting effort begins to take its toll on his health, convincing his girlfriend, Petra, to try and get him to relax, for a short while at the very least.

Lo and behold, the Theatre Metamorphoses, a traveling theater well known for visiting random villages at unexpected times, pulls in to perform at Ponyville for the month, making it their first appearance in over twenty years. Their leader, the young but enchanting Madam Odyssia Metamorphoses, enthralls the crowd with her cast's singing and reciting of favored tales of yore. The theater's popularity even attracts many characters from out of town, all coming to witness the spectacle.

While they entertain the masses, among the festivities Thoraxis begins to suspect something. His senses, paranoid or not, start telling him that something is off with the show and its cast. Something familiar about their mysterious and enigmatic aura. Something too off and familiar and mysterious for him to be comfortable with...

Ponyville's resident changeling begins to investigate the playwrights and actors, sniffing for any clues as to who they could be, while one, particular member of the theater seems to take some form of interest in him.

Only then does the theater's motto really hit Thoraxis.

"The Theatre Metamorphoses has come to town, so while you can come bask in our wondrous sheen! Our acting may be real to some, but never forget, that things are rarely as they seem..."

This story is a spin-off of the Changelings in a World of Foes series.


Charybdis is your typical young, adventurous filly with a long streak of recklessness. She lives in the town of Baltimare, and has a very loving family. But, after her mother comes down with a supposedly incurable and fatal illness, her life takes a turn for the worse.

While her father is away tending to his wife at the hospital in Ponyville, Charybdis's "cousin," a book-loving changeling named Skia, is sent to watch her. Unable to just sit and do nothing while her mother suffers, Charybdis looks to the local legends that say a cure for any disease can be found in the heart of the neighboring Gloomwood Forest; a place wrought with danger, where no soul has ever returned from alive, and in which almost everything will want to eat you.

But she's more than up to that kind of challenge.

Warning! Early story. Bad grammar inbound!
Several seasons have gone by since Thoraxis decided to stay in Ponyville, and life there, surprisingly for the most part, has been pleasant for him. He has made a few friends, love is easy to acquire and devour, and everything seems to be, for the first time in his life, easy and without worry.

Skia, Thoraxis's adopted, changeling daughter, senses something that may be missing in her foster father's life. He states, as the history books do, that changelings can only feed off love, and cannot feel or experience it for themselves. Always the young one with an ambition to change history, Skia undertakes the task to prove the facts wrong, and, much to Thoraxis's ire, she successfully sets him up on a blind date in the Crystal Empire.

Only, heh, there's one, eensy-weensy, teeny-tiny, minuscule problem with the date he's sent to meet.

She's a wyvern.

Oh, and not long before setting the date up, Skia encounters a strange, injured creature, from another realm entirely, in the middle of the Everfree Forest, and another adventure is found with it.


But not all is well. Unbeknownst to anypony, Vile Faux, a changeling so evil, twisted, depraved, and despised that he was cast out of the changeling hive, is tasked by Queen Chrysalis herself to hunt down the two "traitors" that have willingly associated themselves with the ponies, and... "dispose of them" in the most heinous way his sick mind can imagine.

So I guess there's that.


(Crosses over with the Dark Souls series. Don't look at me like that, I was going through a phase!)

This story is a sequel to Metamorphoses


Serendipity is an intelligent and strong-willed, but peculiar and unique individual indeed. She's blind, sickly, suffers from the effects of albinism, and altogether possesses an almost fragile and ethereal quality due to her appearance and condition.

Because of this, and in part due to her hybrid status and antisocial nature, she has earned the worry, unease, and harassment of more than a few of Ponyville's residents throughout her life. Nevertheless, as a young, but full-grown adult, she is quite content with living alone in the middle of the Everfree Forest as an avid plant breeder, and part-time botanist.

As her seventeenth winter pulls in and Ponyville readies itself for another Hearth's Warming, a sudden blizzard of an epic, and almost magical proportion invades, forcing many of the town's inhabitants indoors. No sooner had the fierce storm arrived, but a complete stranger pulls in as well; his reason for appearing being under the pretense that he's "looking for somepony."

This drifter with an utterly alien personality, Striga Phobetor, ends up renting out the half-changeling's home for the week. As one of her only friends and non-related cousin, Charybdis, comes to visit for the holiday, the two become captivated with the mystery surrounding this enigmatic character, and who... or what... he may be...

Thoraxis, a changeling, finds himself stranded in Ponyville, with no way of knowing how to get back home to his brethren and queen. The Mane Six, knowing of his presence in the town, and dreading of what he might do, try to find him, forcing him to hide. Adopting a persona, Thoraxis tries his hardest to survive in this enigmatic land of ponies, without being found, and runs into several, rather large "obstacles," of varying natures, in the process. Will he make it?
