Queen Chrysalis had won. After years of scheming and hiding in the shadows, feeding off scraps of love scavenged from innocent, oblivious passers by, she had finally succeeded in infiltrating Canterlot Castle and the city itself for her own.

Struck down by an unforseen attack, Celestia finds herself catapulted across dimensions and into a bizarre new world of magic and power. A world where she, herself, is the student.

Welcome to Twilight Sparkle's Equestria; a land where magic is might and nopony can escape the clutches of her strict and absolute rule.

Many thanks, as always, to Word Worthy for his unending support and editing skills. Coverart commissioned from Mr-Tech.

The Mortal Realm of Equestria is besieged by unknown shadow-demons that seek to kill all living things. No where is the situation more dire than in Ponyville which has faced more and more of these attacks taking a gruesome toll. Rarity, Priestess of the Gods at the temple in Ponyville enacts a ritual to seek the aid of one of the Divine, gods and demigods that will help a pony for a price. Can the mysterious Goddess of Magic help Rarity save Ponyville and find out who or what is behind the Shadow-Demons?

Inspired of by Earthsong9405's Goddess AU. This is only my own take on it all that this is has flowed from the inspiration that Earthsong9405 has inspired.
Love the art! Love the ideas! What? You have not seen it or heard of Earthsong9405? Blasphemy! Go here and take a look!

Mort, also known as the Pale Pony (of Death), has been tasked to take time off from his rigorous duties of reaping souls. Seeking guidance, he is directed towards the town of Ponyville, to learn about the magic of friendship from Twilight Sparkle and her friends. All he needs to do is keep his true nature a secret. That shouldn't be too difficult...right?

Special thanks to Specter-Von-Baren and Pyrite Foolsgold for their help in proofreading and editing this story, as I really needed it. Additional thanks to Pilate, Chuckle5, Unimpressive Vagaries and Admiral Biscuit as well! Couldn't have done it without all their help!

Credit for the title card goes to Siansaar, AKA Carnifex.

For another excellent take on Mort, check out Sip's version!

King Sombra’s dark influence was obliterated by the Crystal Heart, and the villain is well and truly dead. But when he attempts to steal the afterlife of an innocent victim, a human spirit is left hurtling towards Equestria, where this unfortunate soul is revived into the only vessel available: the reconstituted body of King Sombra himself.

Thus, a cheerfully oblivious alien is crammed into the form of the most evil and malicious being Equestria has ever known. Not that Shining Armor and Cadence know this, of course. As far as they are concerned, the King is back and he’s lost his fricking mind.

While researching the inner workings of Magic, Twilight gets some unexpected help from Pinkie and everything goes wrong.

*Updates are likely going to be really slow, sorry in advance*

Fire, it was stolen from the gods. Magic, however, was given as a gift. When you do something your not supposed to, you get punished, but what happens when you don't want the gift from the powers greater than you. Twilight Sparkle acquires one such gift after a strange book appears in her basement. Now Twilight and friends will be thrown into a situation were anything the may or may not do will cause wars to end, or even begin. They must also face the lords of the old world, who are legends in their own rights, and must acquire unbelievable power to combat such a threat. The lords are not the threat though, it's the gods, they want the magic back. Remember, all a fire needs is a little fuel to burn, but what happens when that fuel, is you?

First story so constructive criticism is encouraged and appreciated.

Rated Teen for innuendos and such.

Sunset Shimmer has just graduated from Canterlot High School, and while that would normally be cause for celebration, it fills her only with a nameless dread as her friends begin to scatter to the winds to pursue their futures. With the latent magic of the human world contained and categorized and the Rainboom's idyllic days of schoolwork over, she finds herself without aim and listless, as though something important is missing from her life.

Fortunately for her, Princess Twilight Sparkle might know what ails her.

So. First time posting on the site after a VERY long period of lurking and reading and enjoying the tales this fandom can produce. To my surprise, I found a dearth of a certain subset of story that I wanted to read, and so I have done this, to put my thoughts to words. After all, it is said that one should write the story they want to read, yes? I've been inspired by a variety of stories like it that came before, and I hope to equal their quality.

I'll try to update roughly once every couple of weeks; please be patient with me and I hope you give this tale a once-over. Pre-emptively tagging with AU, that I might diverge freely from what may come if needed.

Twilight Sparkle decided to use the Time Travelling spell to study how pony society used to be like centuries before Equestria's founding. While there, she found a familiar white coated Earth Pony filly with a curious name. Lost and her home burned down, the filly found herself under Twilight's care with a promise of either finding her a new home or searching for her parents. Twilight will learn more than just her history lesson while on their adventures.

A reclusive mage.
A devoted cleric.
A disgraced sell sword.
A beautiful thief.
A timid knight.
A travelling gypsy.

Six mares who've never met, will suddenly be thrown together as an ancient threat returns imperiling their entire world. Now these unlikely heroes must band together, or their entire world is doomed to eternal darkness.

This is a dark fantasy retelling of the series premiere, using Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 edition rules, spells, and monsters. It was an idea that I've been wanting to write for a good while, and I hope folks enjoy it.

Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo don't admit to being Anon-a-miss, leaving the truth untold and all blame on Sunset. Feeling as though she's no longer wanted in the human world, Sunset goes back to Equestria. Little does she know, Canterlot High falls apart without her and its connection to Equestria.

Alternate ending to the 2014 Anon-a-miss comic, and takes place after Rainbow Rocks but before Friendship Games. I think...

I'm really sorry guys, but this story has been cancelled. I tried really hard to finish it, but I just don't have the motivation to continue it. You can find out more in this blog post, if you want. Thank you so much for all the support, though! <3
