King Sombra, the former tyrant and conqueror of Crystal Kingdom, the wielder of dark magic, servants and slaves that he had at his mere call. One thousand years ago; he lost himself after the banishment by Celestia and Luna, set out to reclaim it but was stopped by Cadance, Shining Armor and Twilight along with other Element of Harmony.

Now what the evil king to do when he lost everything?

Twilight receives a unexpected visitor in her dreams. Meaning no harm, all he wishes is to tell his side of the story.

This story is a sequel to Ascend

Congratulations, Twilight. With Celestia and Luna on their constitutionally mandated vacation, you're in charge of Equestria. The position of Regent is an honored and hallowed one. But maybe it's a bit early to congratulate you. After all, whether it's a nobility jealous of your ascension, or a military unhappy with Celestia's decisions; one thing's certain: your reign will be anything but peaceful.

Twilight Sparkle receives an urgent letter from Princess Celestia, asking her to go to Canterlot. Before Twilight knows it, the purple unicorn finds herself a fugitive, wanted dead for being a threat to Equestria.

Eventually, she finds herself making the most unlikely ally and starting the revolution that spans across 1000 years of suffering and two kingdoms.

In the wake of the recent events in Equestria, Twilight pushes herself to become a more powerful spellcaster. She can feel something has changed, something has awoken. Something that may be beyond her control. With shadows from her past coming back to haunt her, and an unseen foe creating an army, will she be able to find the strength to defend not only her, but those she cares for?

A quick little love story to get us all ready for Valentines Day

Before Twilight ever met her friends, she was just a student under the watchful eye of her mentor, Princess Celestia. But even with her magic, she still needs help once and a while. But what will she do when her assistant is a small baby dragon?

We all know the story of how the Princess’ young student and five friends defeated Nightmare Moon and brought Princess Luna back to our lands. But what if the tale were false? What if the young Twilight Sparkle on the event of her entrance exam had not been rescued by Princess Celestia, but instead lost her mind among the power of her youthful surge and had to be sent away, far away before she could destroy all of Canterlot with her newfound power. Now the feral unicorn prowling the Everfree Forest only vaguely remembers her past, slipping away from constant terrifying attempts to capture her.

And she is beginning to remember what true power felt like.

Twilight is corrupted by exposure to dark magic, and Celestia traps her in an extra-dimensional space called 'The Light Prison.' The Seam is a tear in space that is the exit to the Light Prison, but is usually invisible because the only thing that exists there is light.

It would be appropriate listening music, I think.
