A server waits on six ponies in a restaurant. The diners have drinking contests and discuss social responsibility. The clock ticks ever on and on.

Beneath the blistering blizzard and the freezing frost that swallowed the world, a group of ponies cling desperately to existence. They are the last of ponykind, and the future of their species, if one even remains, rests solely on their shoulders. Hidden in a crater from the worst of the wind, Rarity and the other ponies who managed to find shelter struggle to eke out an existence in a life governed by one rule, and one rule only:

The City Must Survive.

Mr Stripes is a stallion with a problem. It's Plaid's birthday, and he's nearly out of time and ideas for a gift.

That, and an eldritch horror from the depths of the earth has wandered into Manehattan.

Equestria is experiencing a long age of prosperity. The entire world blossoms in a new spring of rapid connection and growth. Things could not be better.

But something beyond the stars has finally noticed all of this warm, beautiful life. Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie must race against time to stop the emissaries of a hideous strength from destroying everything they cherish.

Twilight is unstuck in time on a city in the liminal space between now and never. Rarity comes after her. Together they have a lot of thinking to do.

Written for the RariTwi bomb on Tumblr, one day at a time.

Somewhere past nations and kingdoms, beyond all horror and far from every shining hope, Twilight knows that she will find what she seeks at the edge of the world, before the Walls of Dusk.

It has been a long journey. And one can only bear the Call for so long.

Luna dwells on her own nature, and whether every tie and bond must snap in the end.

To make the admissions process as fair and reliable as possible, all candidates are given three exams by different teams of examiners, who then meet in private to decide which students are most deserving of a place.
