Under the just guidance of the princesses, Equestria has prospered for thousands of years. Yet not a single soul remembers how the kingdom came to be or where its twin diarchs came from.

During a simple tea party, Princess Celestia decides to reveal the answers, causing Twilight to call into question everything she thought she knew about her mentor.

I'd like to thank the Anons of /fimfic/ for helping with my grammar and fixing some narrative-related issues. The story wouldn't be half as good without you!

Through a miraculous and cruel twist of fate, Sombra has survived death yet again. However, his many defeats have left him broken and near feral, and the Princesses see no option but to lock him away. Starlight Glimmer, seeing more than the rage and hate the others see, feels pity for the fallen king, and offers to take Sombra under her care to try and reform him.

She quickly finds out Sombra's more broken than anyone believes, and it's going to be a rocky road to redemption, but even the darkest shadows can take solace in the starlight.

Cadence and Shinning Armour thought everything was going fine. Then they find out Sombra has raised the umbrum, built an entire empire that's only 20 or so miles away and married one of their own citizens. They don't know how they didn't notice but they certainly feel like complete and utter idiots.

Earth-pony Twilight Sparkle has always been a little "out there". But while testing her latest crazy idea, she finds that there are places even farther than that...

In her long career as an academic, Element of Harmony, and Ruler of Equestria, Twilight Sparkle has made many friends, but perhaps none are as unique as her adopted son, Spike. A baby Eldritch Horror, he keeps her on her toes.
But is anything ever what it seems?

There are many who dislike Sunset Shimmer. Recent happenings have brought that to a head which has resulted in her death. But that's hardly the end for her.

Inspired by reading WAY too many Isekai LN's and Manga.

This started as an experiment to try shorter chapters. I gave up on that later on.

Celestia has never used her full power.

Ever.

But that might be about to change. Chrysalis has contacted her and requested a meeting out in the middle of nowhere. Celestia expects a trap. In fact, she's hoping for it.
