It was just supposed to be an errand run!
A student gets more than she bargained for when a run to the store for a video game ends with her losing her life saving someone from death in Aisle 8, and finds herself face to face with an unexpected sight: An alicorn in the afterlife! Celestia offers the girl a new chance of life on Earth, a one-way ticket to Heaven, or a chance to try a hoof at being a hero in a chaos-embroiled Equestria. The newly named Twilight Sparkle opts for option 3, and with the help of her "cheat item", sets off to save Equestria with the help of some helpful(?) new friends!

A Konosuba fusion fic

In the midst of Equestria's most recent age of peace, just after Princess Celestia puts the finishing touches on her latest gift to her subjects, Twilight Sparkle appears with a strange question about an obscure beast. It's obvious that something else is bothering Celestia's most faithful student, but what?

Thru the eyes of her cousin, who her very much.

Spike has requested a story. Twilight knows children occasionally have feelings they don't have words for yet. Stories can supply those words. Most of the time.

Night Vale has no relevance to this story. I just like the song.

If the soul is a private garden, then Wallflower's is full of choking weeds and abandoned trash. Thankfully, she's clearing it out now, with help from her friend Derpy in the gardening club.

Yet something lurks below the soil, waiting for its chance.

Wallflower wants to bury it, but she's scared. What if it can't be killed at all? There must be another way. A better way to keep a garden pure...

Petty Power fully understands the responsibility of being a luggage inspector: he's there to make sure nopony brings anything onto the zeppelin which could interfere with Profit. And those nasty rumors about a potential sabotage attempt? Those have to be ignored, because nervous passengers don't board. Less ponies, less profit. Easy. And here's a group of young mares waiting to pass his checkpoint. Inflicting them with Rules and Regulations should be simple.

Petty is mere hours away from losing his job and leaving Equestria forever. But realistically, he probably deserves it.

Now with author Patreon and Ko-Fi pages.

"Most things out here are ambivalent. The animals, the forest, they don't care about you. But the river? The river is trying to kill you."

"I have found that in our darkest days, we judge ourselves not in terms of what we can do, but in what we fail to do."
