This story is a sequel to New Friends Between Realities

Centuries have passed since Twilight Sparkle took the throne of Equestria, and the world has entered a new golden era for all creatures.

But Equestria itself has changed as well. Several independent and fully autonomous city-states now exist within its borders, countries in their own right but still tied to Equestria as a whole.

Today, Princess Twilight is visiting one such city-state for the very first time.

Zipp braves a magical storm to save Maretime Bay, and meets two mares from a time lost to history.

A tribute (?) of sorts to https://www.fimfiction.net/story/465824/never-forever.

Sunny is careful to use her new abilities and influence only to help others. But even so, she notices everypony in town is increasingly tense and fearful around her. And then she finds out why...

Eager for more answers about Equestria's ancient history, Sunny Starscout uses one of her dad's maps to venture into a long-untouched forest in search of the past.

Two weeks have passed since Sunny convinced the pony races to work together. Two weeks since magic returned to Equestria and ponies began learning about friendship.

Now, a strange weather phenomenon calls for an urgent meeting, and the five friends, along with every pony in Equestria, meet a pony that came to answer some questions and kickstart a new adventure. Turns out, activating the three pony crystals was just the beginning and there's a lot more to do.

As they travel to complete their quest, they will meet new friends and new dangers. Turns out Ancient Equestria was a lot more dangerous than they thought.

This is my first adventure fic! Any and all feedback will be greatly appreciated!

As a timeless immortal being, I never understood death and loss. I was willing to make friends and play nice, I even fell in love. But then one day I lost the pony I loved most, and sought to escape my grief. It went fine for a time, until somepony restored magic to Equestria.

Hitch was having a pretty normal day, until a strange creature appeared on the road and transformed him into a mare. He kept going on about somepony named Fluttershy, before vanishing and imploding a few buildings. Hitch misses the days before he was a national hero in constant peril.

Sunny has... doubts. What is she now? What kind of Princess should she be?

For that matter, taking her past into account, should she even be a Princess at all? She remembers what her life was like growing up, and suddenly she's supposed to forgive and forget? Thankfully, two other Princesses, one new and one old both have their thoughts on the matter...

A cynical brony watched the new G5 movie and shockingly hates it, especially the main protagonist. But next thing he knows, he finds himself inside the film himself, right at the start. As guess which despised character? The clue's in the title...

Will he stick with the script? Or bend the rules a bit? Or, a lot? His choices could have far-reaching ramifications for everypony, but does he even care? And where even is his butt?!

The answers to these questions (well, most of them anyway) will soon be answered.
