This story is a sequel to In the Dark of the Night

Sequel to Not Good Enough and In the Dark of the Night.

Zipp has slowly began to recover from her downward spiral as “Queen Zipp.” However that recovery is soon put to the test when a newly freed Misty surrenders herself to Queen Haven, admitting to her crimes against her oldest daughter.

Now with little support for the unicorn, not even from the rest of the Royal Family, Zipp has a choice to make.

Will she forgive Misty and defend her, or will grudges and vengeance decide the fate of the guilty?

It is said that in times of danger, heroes will come together to face the rising tide of evil, and fight back to preserve the light. These heroes can come from the strangest of places.

This is the story of one such hero. Although she appears to be Zipp Storm, you may be surprised to learn her true origins...

Part of the Rebirth of Magic continuity. Tags will be updated as the story continues.

"So... you weren't going to tell me?" The pink pegasus had tears in her eyes, feeling like a tiny filly again as she looked up at her mother.

"Dearest..." There was sorrow in Queen Haven's eyes, and Pipp didn't even need to hear what she'd say next. She already knew she was right. But her mother spoke anyway. "Before today, it wouldn't have mattered."

Fairweather Haven is many things. A Queen, a celebrity, a shining beacon of hope for a flightless people.

A fraud, a widow, a mother who struggles to connect with her eldest daughter.

It is the burden she bears.
