Princess Mi Amora Amicitia, or Twilight Sparkle to the few that know her Personal Name, may be the reigning Crystal Princess of the Crystal Empire. But that doesn't mean she can't be a normal pony when she wants too.

She hangs out with her friends, mingles with the crystal ponies, and has hopes and dreams just like any other pony her age.

Granted, she will one day ascend the throne as the next Crystal Empress. But that's never stopped her from trying to be as normal as possible.

But in a world that has just endured the Three Tribes Era and the Windigo Winter brought on by the racial hatred of the Three Tribes, normal is anything but for her and her friends.

These are some of their stories.

Oblivion Shadow is a master Witcher of the Wolf School. A contract on a Leshens head brings him to the edge of the Northern Realms to answer a call for help. The fight starts off as normal. A second Leshen attack leaves him fighting on two fronts. The Witcher is able to escape, or so he thought when a sharp pain in his back leaves him waking up in Equestria. He is taken in by the Apple family, who treat him as one of their own. He is welcomed by the ponies of this world and he must learn how to accept that or risk upsetting a balance that he did not realize he was a part of. The question he has to ask himself is how does he get back to his world? Or does he even want to go back to a world that is fraught with war and drowning in hate and rage? His senses tell him that monsters from his world are in this new one but he can't seem to track them down. Could his world be bleeding into this one, and how bad will the damage be? He follows the Mane 6 and learns through them what it means to be a friend and a brother.

And yet, trouble is brewing, and with Twilight's life is now in danger, her unknown guardian must come out of the shadows and do all that he can to protect her, even if it breaks both their hearts in the process.

And what is the force that threatens the young mare's life?

How many people can say that Faust herself gave them a second chance at life? About three. What? She was bored. Archer, Kindle and Dartz were inseparable roommates who are now reborn in everybronies' favorite show. Let's get cracking.

(Shitty cover art hand drawn by yours truly)

Jon and Eugene, two lifelong friends since childhood both share a love for My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. One day, as they were watching an episode, something strange happened. Discord broke the fourth wall, but not in the expected way.

Now, they are stuck in another world. They are not the same age, not the same gender anymore, nor are their bodies even human.

A terrifying situation. Lost in the woods all by themselves, without any to tether them to their previous life. But, they do have one thing; fantasies. And now, the means to act upon them.

It will be a friendly competition, to see who can earn Fluttershy's adoration.

Sex tag is for some of our more questionnable remarks. We don't know if this story will ever get bumped up to mature. We only have a vague idea of how things will play out.

This story is a collaboration between me and my best friend who wishes to remain Anonymous. (Holy shit, the real Anon?). It was my idea to write this together, so expect it to be different from my usual stuff. I just never thought we'd actually do it, so... here goes.

Note: Wow, can't believe we're on the featured list. I was honestly not expecting a good reception, considering the bizarre shit in this story.
Eugene (The Fluttershy Enjoyer) Note: What the fuck is wrong with y'all?

After Equestria faced a crippling tragedy, the dozens of petty lords, who until then all counted their remaining days, suddenly set their sights with renewed malice on how they could get rid of the one remaining pony who threatened their rule.

Some didn't shy away from even the most despicable of methods, changing a colt's life forever.

Proofread by Not That Anon and Equimorto. Thank you very much again!

Saddle Arabia, a mysterious place as far at the ponies are concerned. Populated by horses that are not receptive to Princess Celestia. And a pony arrives in the desert, a pony with wings, and horn. A pony prince? he awakens in a strange land in a shroud of mystery. Not the least of which is his blank memory, inability to walk correctly, let alone fly. Who is this new stranger? And what is the strange magic that seems to surround and follow him? Is he a threat to those that have taken him in? Or will he be their champion?

This story would not be possible without the commissioning from Canary in the Coal Mine. Many thanks for the support.

As always, there is a staff that brings these stories to life, Kitsy-Chan and her wonderful research and voluminous knowledge base on a great many aspects applicable to pony life. And Kalash, with his editing, and adding in native bits and pieces to help make this story the best it can be.

Also great thanks to my pre-readers, harts fire, Phenrys, my wonderful wife, among others. I hope you all enjoy this commissioned story.

It was supposed to be a test, one of monumental weight that decided the future of Equestria. Sending Twilight and her friends to save the Crystal Empire. Celestia had doubts but she thought they were able to step up to the challenge.

But to her worry, she had not received a report or letter for the past two hours. What kind of heinous punishments was Twilight enduring? What vile, disastrous magic was being inflicted upon her?

Would Sombra even keep her alive?

Celestia quivered in the wake of the possible answer that Twilight was unsuccessful in defeating a true villain.

Twilight is on a mission. There are twelve missing ponies to find, whether they be dead or alive. But what she finds will destroy everything she believes in. The Equestria she knows is not all that it seems. But there is one who will set everything straight.
"It is said that history is written by the victors! And the victims' bodies are lain in a bloody heap, left to be forgotten. Well, I have seen through the victims' eyes and seen the lies you have spoken! No more... No more will your lies infect me! "

This story is a sequel to Phoenix-born rising - the ascension of Sunset Shimmer [1st ed.]

The rite of the phoenix is one of the most celebrated moments among the sun-gazers of Solaria. For with the hatching of a new phoenix, comes the ascension of a new phoenix-born: a mortal chosen by the phoenix to be its new life partner and guardian. Only those with both strength and purity of their inner fire can draw the attention of a hatchling phoenix, so only the best of the best can ever hope to be chosen.

To one young orphan girl named Sunset Shimmer, she could only dream of witnessing the ascent of one of Celestia's chosen. As the day approaches, she learns that she will be able to, as she has been selected by the crown as one of the girls to serve at the event.

Little did she know that this would be the seminal event of her life, and change her fate forever.
