This story is a sequel to Dragon Greed is Good

With one monetary crisis averted, another inevitably rises to take its place. This time, disaster threatens to strike as a trade dispute breaks out on the high seas between the Gryphon Navy and Equestria's largest trade company. Will the conflict escalate into a war? Will it affect the nation's import of coffee beans?

The Princess of the Night will at least make certain she solves the latter.

Reforming the tax and legal system had been her responsibility a thousand years ago, and it will be so again. There have been many changes during her millennium of absence, but the fundamentals always stayed the same. Ponies would find ways to circumvent the laws for their own benefit, and it was her job to make sure that didn't happen—in the most direct way possible.

In the Crystal Empire, it's traditional to celebrate the day the crystal ponies were liberated from the rule of King Sombra. Flurry Heart wonders why. Aren't ponies who rule supposed to be good and kind? Desperate for answers, she goes to the pony who can explain everything: Twilight Sparkle.

Written for FanOfMostEverything's Imposing Sovereigns II contest, under the prompt Flurry Heart: Peace. Proofread by HapHazred.

After having saved Equestria from the chaotic terror of Discord, Twilight and her friends are more than ready to settle down and relax back in Ponyville. But while enjoying some milkshakes together, they're approached by a young colt who has an unexpected thing to ask of them.

A pony Sunset Shimmer wronged before leaving Equestria is back for revenge, and is insisting Sunset come to confront her alone. Can Sunset help the wayward mare? Can Sunset use the magic of friendship without any friends around? Is Sunset an alicorn? Well, do you see any wings?

In the best case scenario, diplomacy is a long, complicated, and often frustrating undertaking. This is not the best case scenario.

In this day and age, who has time to be a God? Prayers come in 24/7 and fancy dress is compulsory. Rainbow Dash certainly doesn't have time. She's got bills to pay and things to do. Besides, she isn't qualified for Godhood, surely.

The ponies who say her control of the weather is divine disagree, unfortunately. They've given her a funny spear and a robe that doesn't quite fit. They've got their own temple and they take church seriously.

And it turns out she's not the only pony recently undergone apotheosis...

Teen for immature jokes.

Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash's newest cutie map mission really bugs them.

Part of the Remember Fort Libris print anthology, thanks to our Kickstarter supporters!

Straight from the Canterlot archives, this collection of documents retells the rise and fall of Princess Twilight Sparkle, Enlightened Despot of Equestria, Defender of the Peace, Lawgiver, and Commander of Fort Libris.

Twilight Sparkle is, of course, known to historians as the first usurper to seek to schedule a coup d'etat by appointment. But for other details- such as, "What is the longest recorded time a pony has gone without sleep?", "Is it true what they say about swans?", and, "Why is there an owlbear in the Equestrian Witness Protection Program?"- these documents provide the answers and much, much more.

This is ABSOLUTELY SERIOUS HISTORY from primary sources. If anything makes you think this is silly, ludicrous, or unbelievable, blame Discord.

Sunset Shimmer is having the worst day of her life. She used to be important. She was the personal student of Princess Celestia. She was a future leader of Equestria. She was the kind of mare that everypony envied.

Today, it's all crashing down around her.
