Sunset Shimmer has fallen from grace. After her humiliation at the Fall Formal, she now faces a long road to redemption.

But it's not easy, most of the others refuse to accept her, and new enemies threaten to drag her back into darkness. Can she find her way to the light?

EDIT: Well how about that. Hit the featured box as of January 4th, 2018
EDIT 2: Will wonders never cease? Featured box AGAIN as a February 16th. I'm sensing a theme here.

By then you would understand that a loss of a dear friend, hurts more than a dead friend. Alienated to being nonexistent in their eyes would only plunge you deep and further into the dark depths of the abyss and there will be no rope, ladder, ledge, or round stone to help you climb out.

Through the Eyes of Twilight Sparkle, separating from this world is better than living in it.

I suppose this is where I'm supposed to persuade you to read on; so here goes nothing...
I am Doctor Cipher. Some regard me as a villain - and they're right.
My...'assistant'... Inkis Pie and I are here to rid the world of those who are deserving of it; which is most ponies who I have ever had the misfortune to encounter.
I have developed a drug. A very powerful one. It causes severe nightmarish hallucinations, so much so that people can even go as far as murdering they're own child, thinking that it was a giant spider.
But now Inkis is turning against me. I have nowhere to run. This may be the last thing I will ever write, or do. The royal guard is after me. Celestia's forces are cruel and unforgiving. Send help.

Since deciding to try her hoof at performing for the residents of Saddlearabia at the insistence of her new friend, Twilight Sparkle, after the alicorn amulet incident she figured it would be a walk in the park. To woo the crowd before her, the Great and Powerful Trixie attempted something so magnificent and so dangerous. Something she would regret for the rest of her life, or would she?

Rated teen for language and slight violence.

It had been a year since Twilight had heard of anything from Trixie after the Alicorn Amulet incident. Unexpectedly, she receives a letter saying that her so called "rival" has tragically died and is requested to be at her funeral.

Live Reading by Aria The Brony

After Twilight earned her wings, she came to the harsh reality that her friends and family would eventually die, and she'd live on without them. She'd have to go on without her best friends for the rest of her immortal life.
A few thousand years after their deaths, Twilight is still extremely depressed and mourning their deaths.
Twilight will never be able to spend a single second with them ever again.
But then, while exploring the Castle of the Two Sisters like she used to with her friends, she finds an old, magical amulet.
Thinking it was just another of the several lost ancient charms, she thought nothing of it, but kept it to figure out what it is.
Little did she know, she's in for the shock of her life.

In the town of Ponyville, three newcomers arrive on its streets. One of them is the egoistic Mystery Keystone. He is a wise-cracking, razor-sharp wit, intelligent, and mysterious crackerjack pony. He is also dead . . . a skeleton. This is his story.

Yes, Mystery is the pony version of Skulduggery Pleasant.

This is a letter discovered in an underground facility that is seems to be a magic research laboratory. In this letter, an unknown pony had written details about Princess Luna's transformation a thousand years ago. It seems he was involved.

After an undead creature attacks Apple Bloom, Princess Celestia sends Fluttershy to attempt to reform the assailant. That brief contact leaves an irreversible mark on Fluttershy's life. Follow her descent into a whirlwind of misery and despair.
