Titles don't make the pony. Its important to remember that. A small outing turns to a chance encounter.

Luna forgot something on the moon. A magical artifact that even now threatens to destroy the entire lunar body! And Twilight only has a month to get there and stop it from doing just that!

Can our intrepid hero manage to create a whole space program from scratch? Perhaps with the help of her friends, the magic of friendship... and untold trillions of bits from the royal treasury... maybe she just might succeed!

Or the moon will explode. Maybe.

It's well-known that the alicorns of Equestria have certain... characteristics that separate them from the rest of the pony populace.

One of these characteristics is a self-destruct button.

Twilight Sparkle is the first to learn of its function and proceeds to find hers the hard way.

downvote if y'all want to. :P

The newest threat to harmony comes from above: the sun and the moon themselves. 

It's Equestria's Golden Age of Harmony, and the amulet Princess Twilight Sparkle used for decades to start the day and the night is starting to fail. Moving the sun and moon across the horizon grows more and more difficult with every passing day. If a solution isn't found soon Equestria will be condemned to eternal day or night, never changing again.

Hope remains, though, as Twilight looks to the only two ponies in Equestria who might have answers about the sun and moon. It remains to be seen if she is ready to hear those answers, or to do what must be done to maintain harmony.

This story is a sequel to Double Twilight Love

Following Pearl's unexpected trip to Equestria, Princess Twilight finds herself curious to know more about what the young girl told her about her hobby of tabletop wargaming.

Pearl, always eager to help a new wargamer, is more than happy to get the princess started on a new journey, and Twilight will soon find herself starting a new hobby. And she isn't the only one.

In Equestria, there are four princesses: Princess Celestia the Wise, Bringer of the Day and Protector of the Light; Princess Luna the Brave, Bringer of the Night and Protector of Dreams; Princess Cadence the Just, Bringer of Love and Protecter of the Crystal Heart; and Princess Chrysalis the Resourceful, Bringer of Peace and Protector of the Library of Wisdom. All four of them have proven time and time again their worthiness of the titles of Wise, Brave, Just, and Resourceful.

But rumors exist of a fifth princess: Princess Twilight the Kind, Bringer of Friendship and Protector of Magic itself. The rumors tell that Princess Twilight had five loyal friends, who together represented the fabled Elements of Harmony, using them to heal Luna the Brave, Chrysalis the Resourceful, and fabled mage Starlight the Powerful, along with many others.

But one day, Princess Twilight’s five friends and Princess Twilight herself disappeared, never to be seen again.

Now, the only clue as to her whereabouts lay in The Frozen Empire and it’s empress, the mysterious Winter Goddess, who communicates only by messenger even in times of dire need. The four Princesses have tried time and time again to talk to the Winter Goddess directly, but have made no progress.

And then, the Winter Goddess herself appears in the Throne Room, intent to call a Council of Royalty to discuss a new movement called the Eastern Ring.
