Kuno, a young changeling, is left weak, bloodied, and bruised after the events of the Canterlot wedding. She is soon discovered by Warden, a Royal Guard. But for some reason, Warden shows her mercy. Instead of taking her into the custody of the Royal Guard, he becomes both her captor and her savior. But over time, Kuno will come to ask herself the hardest question she has ever pondered: Can a changeling feel love?

To save her sister and her faithful student, Celestia herself must travel into the ancient tunnels beneath the ruined castle in the Everfree Forest. She, and the guards who accompany her, must face the dark, twisting corridors. Still, what was Luna and Twilight's purpose at the old castle? Why were they unable to return of their own accord?

And what watches Celestia from beyond the light's edge?

Just because you can't, doesn't mean you shouldn't.

Chapter 1 has been rewritten, with a different ending, for the few of you who read the orginal version. Thanks to Pascoite, Windmill 7 and Ezn for their assistance.

There's something strange and unnatural living in Bon-Bon's house.

Something other than Lyra.

Bon Bon's voice is funny, and that's about all that anypony who meets her notices, as her marefriend Lyra soon steals the spotlight with her explosive personality, strange obsessions, and curious beliefs. And why not? Bon Bon is, after all, a perfectly ordinary, boring pony in every way but two: her voice, and the carefully kept secret that she isn't really a pony.

(Edit:) Now with an annotated version, courtesy of the incomparable Shoggoth Lord!

A mysterious stallion adept in an ancient form of magic shows up in Ponyville, bringing his dark past with him. As the mysteries around this secretive pony unravel, an old enemy comes forward looking for revenge. The stallion must choose between hiding from his past and resolving it—between secrecy and redemption.

[Rated Teen for themes of violence, and very mild language.]

Celestia and Luna have been sisters for more than a millennium. If only that made things easier!

Will Spike ever find true love while wearing cupcake shaped hats?

Will Twilight Sparkle ever learn to play the banjo?

(No banjos were harmed in the making of this fiction. If you want to find out the answers to those last two questions, you'll probably have to go read something else.)
