Set in an alternate timeline. Fluttershy encounters a strange creature in the woods. After realizing the animal is injured she tries nursing it back to health only to discover she has one of the most dangerous and powerful mages ever to inhabit Equestria in her care.

Story idea is from alarajrogers.

Very little is known of the human world, and how it functions. When a Lord of Chaos finds himself trapped there, he must learn how to adapt. And, learn about a certain Veterinarian student along the way. [fluttercord]

Discord breaks free of his stone prison, and decides to show the Mane 6 just what his prison was like. And give them a taste of what he went through!

There will be more if this story does good.

What if Celestia and Luna failed to defeat Discord? What if their plan backfired and they themselves were turned into stone?
What if Discord has ruled Equestria for 2000 years?
What if chaos were to become mundane and boring?
Well obviously you've never been to the Mad World have you...

Ponies: They come in Earth, Pegasus, Unicorn. There are many roles for these ponies; Earth ponies tend to the land and grow crops, Pegasi tend to the skies and control the weather, Unicorns run the government and handle the magic.

What gives them these abilities? Why, magic does of course. Magic adds to this equine anatomy to give it the abilities it possesses. Magic allows the earth ponies to tend to the land, allows the pegasi to fly and control weather, and allows unicorns to do that glowing magical horn thing whenever they're too lazy to accomplish anything with their own two hooves.

Over the years, Twilight has learned a lot about magic and how to use it, even becoming an alicorn due to her great progress! But, she finds that the magic that makes ponies special in the individual ways they are have a great deal with how they work. In more ways than one, actually.

Trigger Warnings: Magical Reproduction That Happens By Rainbows. No actual sex happens, but...you'd be surprised at what the alternative is.

Many wonder how the two Royal Sisters first came to rule over Equestria. Though the true tale is lost to the fog of history, rewritten and reshaped by bards and scholars too many times to count, certain old fables and fairytales nonetheless remain; passed from bedside to bedside, elder to younger, since olden times.

This is one such tale.

Seeing as how some of you want me to write more, I'll get on it soon.

Who is Discord? We all know him as a sinister embodiment of chaos and disharmony, but what was he before that?

This is the journal he kept over the many years of his life, in which we will find a story not many know. Perhaps, in the end, Discord is not the bad guy after all.

After losing her beloved, Celestia finds it difficult to continue on without him. But, she should be fine, right? It's not the first time she lost somepony close to her. So why is she so broken about it now?

Discord will have no idea what to make of what he'll learn.

This is a Princess CelestiaxAU King Sombra
This is inspired by the Reflections Arc of the MLP Comics, which runs through issues 17-20.

One thousand years ago, when the Kingdom of Equestria was just beginning to bloom, and a pair of Princesses were only a few decades into their reign, a lone Draconequus by the name of Discord entered the land. He was a creature never before beheld by the ponies of Equestria, and his arrival was met with mixed reactions. Some ponies wanted him out of their land as quickly as he had come. Some ponies wanted a chance to better understand him and his ways. And there was one pony who dared to think more of him than anything else in the world...
