Warning: Philosophically dark.

A lot has happened since Celestia and Luna disappeared nine hundred years ago. There are no wars, no diseases, no pain, no death. Princess Twilight, Discord, and Spike do everything to ensure that the utopia continues.

But even the most ideal paradises have ponies that wish it wasn't so.

Story inspired by Mister Saugrenu’s artwork 1000 Years in the Future.

There's a new pony in Ponyville. She's perfect in every way. She's kind, fast, strong, beautiful, and is loved by virtually every pony she meets. But something seems off to Twilight. Something seems wrong. Very wrong... What horrible secret will she uncover?

The fall of Princess Luna to dark magic...

The defeat of Nightmare Moon...

The lucky accident of Twilight Sparkle being in just the right place, at the right time, with the right ponies...

A redemption , joyous and unconditional...

All well known legend, but what if? What if it was all a lie?

Hey there everybody... I've done a rewrite of this here https://www.fimfiction.net/story/548880/the-hidden-story-20

This story is a sequel to Inexcusable

She looked just like Princess Celestia, except marred and broken. Her ceremonial barding had rusted slightly, and dirt matted her coat. Most noticeable was her hair; black streaks accompanied its usual multicolored luster. They looked like discolorations in an old photograph.

Worst was the scar across her chest. Her armor covered it, but nothing could hide what it meant.

The tarnished Celestia smiled at Luna. "H-hello, monster. I would say I am glad to see you, but that w-w-wouldn’t be quite accurate."

I thought it was just a particularly hot summer. When my friends and the rest of the town started acting weird, I thought it was just the heat. After all, we've had heatwaves before, and those always drive ponies a little crazy. That's what I told myself, anyway.

And then I did some digging and realized I was right... and also very, very wrong.

In a fit of pique, Twilight summons the Cutie Mark Inspector to Ponyville to conduct a cutie mark review of the townsfolk. When it transpires that every pony has been interpreting their cutie marks wrong, Ponyville is thrown into chaos. Has Twilight bitten off more than she can chew?

The last of the so-called "immortals" is dying.

Magic has been draining from the world, a little more with each generation. The march of industry had taken its place, replacing castles with skyscrapers and enchantments with cybernetics. The world has been falling apart in the wake of the loss, and yet those in power don't care. They've holed up in Canterlot, where alicorns once reigned, and swapped the shining crowns with well-pressed suits.

Where there were princesses, there are now CEOs, and where there were once throne rooms there are board rooms. "Harmony" is a quaint little concept of the past, the kind of things in TV shows for children. The long-lived beings who once guided the direction of nations have perished, dying with the magics that sustained them, and the new elites wrap themselves in wealth and pursue new methods of immortality.

One small community of creatures know that it isn't true that all are gone. They've been harbouring the last, a draconequus by the name of Discord. He claims to have been around during ancient times, that he's been the villain, the hero, and back again more times than anyone can count. But time is taking its toll on even him, and he doesn't have many years left.

He's gathered together a changeling tech, a deer fixer, a griffon operator, a minotaur decker, a hippogriff streamer, and a zebra-shaped synth for what he calls his final act of chaos: The heist of a lifetime, stealing a priceless artefact from the claws of a businessdragon who won't hesitate to kill them if they're caught.

He tells them that the prize will ensure their settlement's future, and that alone is worth the risk. But how?

Trapped in a future where Twilight--now known as Andromeda--has turned into an uncaring, emotionless dark-magic wielding empress, Rarity sometimes contemplates just... you know... accelerating her trip to the heavens, so to speak.

On one such time, she's surprised to find it's Andromeda of all ponies who makes her change her mind.

Takes place in an AU by Maximasmac (a brief explanation of the AU is inside the story). Artwork is also by Maxima and depicts Andromeda.

Simple things have the biggest tendency to go awry. Habits have the biggest chance of being interrupted. "Jack" has a business meeting like any other quarter-year, yet it does not go as it always does. History has a funny way of repeating itself as she is reminded of her high school days during the predicament.

(There are other characters in this story but I don't want to ruin the surprise.)

This story is a sequel to Into The Depths

The horrors of the catacombs have turned to distant memories for Celestia, Twilight, and Luna. Discord’s change of heart and Twilight’s coronation have helped to ease and erase the mental scars from that harrowing night. The three princesses can even smile and laugh as Nightmare Night moves into full swing.

Yet, it should never be forgotten that those who have been touched by Tirek are forever within his grasp.
