As the millennium draws to a close, a certain monarch reflects upon the actions that brought about her loneliness...and the loved one she has lost.

This is an unofficial prologue to Season 1.

This story was inspired by ponyphonic's "Lullaby for a Princess".

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but what if all who behold you see naught but a monster? Given the chance, can this view change? Sometimes, it just takes one person to reach out...and help.

This story is rated T for violence, use of alcohol, and suggestive sexual references and situations.

As I'm sure you can tell by the dates of submission, this story was started quite some time ago. Instead of completely ignoring things that have happened since season 3 on, this will be an alternate reality that branched from shortly before Twilight began the path to become an alicorn.

This story is a sequel to Twilight's Song

Princess Twilight Sparkle is as eternal as time itself, and yet holds a mortal heart. She knows loss, for she has lost. She knows love, for she has loved. What then, is there left for one who will forever remain?

Setting:
This takes place one-hundred years after the events of the previous story. Twilight is now nearing six-hundred years of age, and yet feels as if time has stood still for her.

Technology has advanced, civilizations had risen and fallen, and yet through it all, she has persevered...mostly.

Note: You will notice that technology has not advanced in the same order as that of humans has, with some advancements completely having been passed over. This is because this is a different world with different rules and a different line of physics and power sources. Keep that in mind. Also, do not expect Twilight to act the same as canon. Such a long time can change everything about who someone is, so keep that in mind and don't come to me shouting "OOC".

With that all taken in mind, enjoy the story.

As Twilight goes throughout her new life, she takes care to never forget the special ponies that helped to mold her into who she is, even with the pain that comes with the remembrance. One pony in particular, however, stands out among the rest.

When an unknown future beckons, she calls upon the blissful memories that she treasures so much, and remembers the pony who taught her the most important lesson of all...

How to love.

What do you do, after you've made the impossible, possible?

With the Wonderbolt tryouts looming just around the corner and rumors of Spitfire being able to perform the Sonic Rainboom at will, Dash is at wits end. She needs something greater, awesomer, more epic than just a mere Rainboom. After all, to perform that trick a second time would label her a one trick pony and if Spitfire could pull it off, then what was the point?

So what trick could possibly be greater than a Sonic Rainboom?

Applejack and Rainbow Dash are spending a cold, wintery day together, around the table, sharing hot tea and cookies. This is an AppleDash Quickie (not that kind of quickie, you perv), and is a short story set in the same universe as "Of Clouds, Seeds, and Apple Trees," as well as "Saddlebags, Sun, and On the Run," "Hearth's Warming's Heart," and "Orange and Blue, I Do." It is the latest story in the chronology.

(LotusVerse Story #5)

Applejack and Rainbow Dash are preparing to get married. Amidst the hustle and bustle and busy activity surrounding such a joyous occasion, Violet Tempest, Rainbow Dash's younger sister, arrives in Ponyville, in order to start out on her journey to find a direction for her life, something that will bring her the same joy and happiness she sees in the love between her sister and her soon to be sister-in-law.

* This is Book 4 in the AppleDash series written by The Lotus Tea Dragon. It is recommended that you read "Of Clouds, Seeds, and Apple Trees" (Book 1), "Saddlebags, Sun, and On the Run" (Book 2), and "Hearth's Warming Heart (Book 3) before reading this volume. It is not, however, necessary.

This is a sequel to: Saddlebags, Sun, and On The Run (Book 2)

There is a later sequel to this story: The Fruits Of Our Labors (Book 4)

After saving the land from a trio of dragons, Princess Celestia orders the Mane Six to take a vacation. Fortunately, she has already booked them a trip to the beautiful coastal city of Los Pegasus! How will the ponies fare on the other side of Equestria, where it's fun in the sun all day long? Will Twilight relax? Will Rainbow Dash and Applejack meet Dash's parents? Will Pinkie Pie stop playing that incessant kazoo? Why is Spike taking his mustache? Find out the answers to all of this and more!

*Note: I'm using the official map of Equestria, which says Los Pegasus is similar to Los Angeles, CA.

This is a sequel to: Of Clouds, Seeds, and Apple Trees (Book 1)

There is a later sequel to this story: Orange and Blue, I Do (Book 3)

A short story about our favorite ponies on the night of Hearth's Warming Eve.
This story is set in the same universe and several months after the events of LotusVerse Book 2, "Saddlebags, Sun and on the Run".

Rainbow Dash has always had her head in the clouds, physically, but is always brought back to Equestria by the no nonsense common sense attitude of her best friend, Applejack. This story is an AppleDash fic, and takes place after the Season 2 finale of MLP:FiM.

This is my first fanfic ever, so feedback is most welcome!
