Coming across an artifact while exploring a forest cave, a young teen gets whisked off to a strange new land. unfortunately for him, this artifact did more than just transport him, landing him immediately in the world powers proverbial blade tip. Trapped in stone, this is how he spends his time.

Yo! I'm not dead! I'm not done with Amnesiacs tale, just taking a bit more of a break from it. I had this idea floating in my head and i had to catch it. this story will be a lot shorted than I intend Amnesiacs tale to be so I should be back to it soon!

The wail of the siren could be heard all across the island.

The attackers groan at the sound.  Their camouflage is perfect, the time impeccable.  It’s in the middle of the night- and the moon never shines here, for the storm.  There is not so much as a speck of light on the island.

But the alarm still went off.

Two squadrons of pegasi take flight, charging towards the island.  To get inside the defenses, before they can be stopped.

One of the two ships explodes with no warning.  No survivors.

Two squadrons of pegasus blood runs cold as the mountain peaks emit little pops, accompanied by momentary flashes of light.

Two squadrons of pegasi are dead before they hit the water.

The other ship explodes.  No survivors.

The attack is over.  The siren stops.

The first defender reaches his post, finds all is well.

He returns home.

While the above isn't technically part of the story, it does exist in the story timeline, before the beginning.

I don't know where I got the idea for this story. String of the Stars was originally intended to be an origin story for my take on Lyra, but didn't turn out as anything close. This has turned out much better, as such, so far.

While the opening may be a little dark, it is worth note that this is NOT a tragedy.

As always, tags may be updated as the story progresses.

Many people have many theories about Scootaloo. Some think she's an orphan. Some think she's part of an abusive household. Others still worry that she's somepony's illegitimate offspring that's hidden away.

However, the truth is far from that. She has a loving mother and father, and she means the world to them both. They've gone to great lengths all for her.

However...they're just a little...strange. Especially since neither one is comfortable with coming out except at night.

Rated Teen for some adult language.

Partially inspired by this story by Colonel J.

Edit 2: And G_Haze has decided to update the cover art, and damn does it look good.

It’s amazing to think that we’re sending our daughter to Celestia’s School for Gifted Unicorns.  Especially with how, well, powerless she seemed during her youth.  Though, of course, we probably should have seen this coming; she has been showing signs.  Well… I say signs, but I mean…

Oh, I don’t know how to explain it- or even what half of them are.  Perhaps you can read this story and explain it to me, her pegasus mother, so I know for next time.  You know, for the inevitability that there will be a next time. I am expecting, after all.

An experiment. This story is the first of its kind, that I've seen. It's told in first-person point of view, but never from the main character's point of view.

This story also represents a significant increase in plot depth over my other stories. Far less action, but more story. More life. In theory.

More ponies. With more persistence, less irrelevance.

If you have a name, a color pattern, or a character idea you'd like to see, mention it. I will probably use it- and when I do, I will credit you.

And as always, tags will be updated as the story progresses.

Cancelled for lack of plot.

Ragar the Ageless has seen many things in his non-life. He has seen fields of cotton candy, the wails of the soon-to-be-dead chanting in chorus. Once he even saw a unicorn. Well, there are a lot of those in Equestria, so maybe that one was less noteworthy. But still, he's seen a lot. Now he wants others to see him in all his glorious evil. The only issue is he's not so good at it.

** EDIT **

Well crap, featured with every chapter. I feel all special and stuff. So let me give you all some love. You're all wonderful people, trees or whatever internet capable folks have been reading.

Dang, look at all those likes. I'm feeling the love. Thank all of you for enjoying my wonderful trip through insane necromancy.

Many Thanks to Locke_Jaw for his wonderful artwork that is my new cover.

Far, far away from the Equiss system, the queen of blades is readying the launch of her newest weapon. A ship designed to infest an entire planet in secret, readying it for the eventual zerg invasion and softening up even the hardest target, Korhal. Unfortunately for the queen of blades, the untested zerg biotechnology is more difficult to master then she thought and the infestation ship vanishes after launch.

Untold eons later Twilight Sparkle is preparing for her entrance exam for Celestia's school for gifted unicorns only to stop when she sees a star fall into her new treehouse. The young pony sets out in the middle of a storm, intent on seeing this fallen star for herself.

What she finds inside will change not only her destiny but the destiny of all on Equiss prime.

The story so far!

Mark Wells was a klutz, but even he could not imagine stumbling into a mirror that he had just bought at an antique store and ending up in a world of colorful equines, not to mention gaining hooves and wings at the same time. And whoever heard of green fur on a horse? Perhaps the great and powerful Princess that the guard was taking him to would have some answers because he sure didn't!

An alternative version of canon events with humorous twists. Written in collaboration with Airy Words.

Book One: Chapters 1–33
Book Two: "Further Off The Mark": Chapters 34–69
Book Three: "On The Mark": Chapters 70–100

Sex tag added as of chapter 32 but it's mostly due to talk. Actual sex takes place "off camera".

One might consider a battle with an Alicorn to be a lost cause. He didn't, and if it wasn't for his eagerness to fight back, he might actually have won. But she wins, and saves Equestria once again.

But that's not the important part.

For what is important, nopony even knows it's there to be important, save the Alicorn herself and any who forget to specify 'summary' when asking the simple question of how the battle went.

Cancelled for lack of a plot.

It's a spaceship. An enormous spaceship, floating in orbit around the Earth. That's all traffic control knows about it.
It's got beefy sensors, strong computers, and stern control of a plasma cannon, utilized in its defense against a known criminal. That's all Law Enforcement knows about it.
It's newly commissioned and currently unmanned. There's a clear lack of engineering people on her crew lists. That's all her new Captain knows about it, while she's on her way to be the first human being to step aboard.
