War. Ponies may not be interested in it, but it is most certainly interested in them.

Equestria has fallen. Princess Cadance, the Alicorn of Love is the only princess still standing. The perpetual blizzard beyond the borders of her kingdom has been a natural barrier to the war. The Crystal City is the last beacon of hope for the refugees seeking safety within its dome.

Meanwhile, Celestia awaits her fate at the headstallion's block. Queen Chrysalis languishes in darkness, isolated for the rest of her days from her children and her nation. Flamespyre and his children move to extinguish what hope there is. Discord remains aloof, content it seems to watch.

Princess Twilight Sparkle is awakening in her prison, but in the worst possible way.

A changeling stands against an army to save civilians he barely knows, the loyalty and devotion to his prince his driving force.

A sister plots.

A prince and a princess gather an unpredictable army to bring to heel the Twin Queens.

Nightmares roam the lands as Oblivion unleashes the chaos of magic against the king who would see it all taken for himself.

Practice makes perfect. And Princess Twilight wants everything to be perfect. Especially the end of the world.

Up at the top of the sky, where the air is thin and the mares' tails clouds drift, a pegasus can find peace. It’s a place every pegasus should visit, but a place Rainbow knows the earthbound Fluttershy has never been. A tale of adventure down a path paved with the very best of intentions...

Episode filler for "Princess Twilight Sparkle". Discord considers whether or not to help or hinder the ponies in fighting his plunder vines. In the end he decides to be helpful. Mostly. Though Celestia might not agree. Faint hints of prior Dislestia ship but they're not exactly pals anymore. Takes place in the universe of "Last Draconequus" and "Elements of Opposition", not the Discord-is-Q fics.

There is now a series page: Princess Twilight Sparkle Endcaps

Well it's not actually a sequel. Here is a collection of short stories and histories detailing the life of Alternia, a changeling queen impersonating the life of Princess Celestia. These are the stories of the ruler under her mask.

Reading the main story: Princess Celestia: The Changeling Queen is a requirement if you don't want to be spoiled or confused. I will try to provide background information when I can.

For readers of the main story, there are basically no spoilers if you've read past chapter 8. Enjoy!

Equestria stands on the brink of ruin. A necromancer has raised an army of the dead and is poised to plunge the world into darkness. Monsters and brigands roam freely across the land, preying upon the innocent.

Only one hope remains. Armed with swords, spells, snacks, and a bag of dice, five heroes band together to defeat the forces of evil… if their rolls are good enough.

Welcome to gaming night in Ponyville.

Do you see a dark tag? No, you don't. Not dark. Well, okay, there are a couple of dark-ish bits, but that's all. Not enough to warrant a tag. Speaking of tags, there really ought to be "Badass Twilight" and "Friendshipping" ones.

Sequels and side-stories (and more) can be found here Offprint and AO3, and a hardbound two-volume set of all that can be ordered from The Ministry of Image.

My editor for the first edition of this story was Gogito, and I can't thank him enough for all the hard work he did. My editor for the revised version was PresentPerfect, and he did a terrific job of getting the story into excellent shape.

The best view you could ever ask for, all clear skies and sprawling plains and forests. History baked into every brick and stained into every pane of glass. Streets paved—sometimes literally—with gold.

But then there's the ponies.

I really do hate this place.

Rated Teen for mild language. Marked On Hiatus because I have no immediate plans to continue it.

Written for the Circleship Collab. Click here for full details and links to the collab's other stories; a number are gems. Thanks go to the wonderful JohnPerry for looking my story over for the collab.

Captain Rainbow Dash of the Wonderbolts.
Has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it?
Certainly her dream job.
Well, dreams and reality are two very different things.

Especially when our newly minted captain has to deal with an empty roster, budget cuts, the first non-pegasi cadets, and the pressure of finding out your best friend is now your boss, let alone a princess.

If that weren’t enough to make her quit, her three wing commanders might. Cloud Kicker is a sexual harassment lawsuit waiting to happen; Surprise makes no sense; and Lightning Dust is, well, Lightning Dust.

Meanwhile, Scootaloo arrives at the academy, ready and raring to prove she’s got what it takes to be an elite flyer. Pressure mounts as Scootaloo aims to make her hero proud.

It's been said in prophecies that nopony will know the time or date the magic of Equestria that empowers its citizens would leave. I thought it was just superstitious nonsense written by ancient witch doctors. In a sense, they were right. But I would have never expected it to come like this. —Princess Twilight Sparkle, 05/05/1268

AU tag added due to the Cutie Mark Crusaders getting Cutie Marked.
