No one alive today can say where she came from; simply that she has always been there.

And yet, few ponies have had a greater impact on Princess Celestia's life than Raven, her most faithful aide.


Inspired by and based off of a headcanon put forth by Heir-of-Rick, though perhaps a bit less insidious than what he had in mind. He very kindly provided an alternate version of his image for me to use as my cover image! Text added by me.

All comments and criticism very welcome!

Featured in the Royal Canterlot Library! Go there to read the interview for some behind-the-scenes info on this story!

Translations: Chinese, Spanish!

Some queens come to power through birthright, some through charisma, and some through strength and force.
But there are some queens who rise to power through cunning and treachery...and Chrysalis of the Changelings is perhaps the greatest of them all.
Long live the queen!

Special thanks to TheOneBehindYou and my best friend Lycan for giving me feedback, support, encouragement, and proofreading this conceptual look into how Chrysalis became the Queen of the Changelings.
The cover image is a screenshot, and the title is Latin for "Long live the queen! Long live the queen!"

Cadance and Twilight have discovered something about the Alicorn Amulet. Whenever someone rejects its promises of power, it weakens the Amulet's magic. In theory, if enough ponies should be tempted by it and reject it, it would destroy the amulet forever.

They summon the help of volunteers from across Equestria, in the hope of destroying it for good.

Discord and Princess Celestia have been dancing for some time now. Not everyone can see it. Not even Celestia can, truthfully.

But Discord does. He sees every move and every turn. And he's not certain he ever wants their dancing to stop. No matter how much it might hurt them both.

Octavia and Vinyl are both, to their surprise, flying to Trottingham on the same flight. At first, this seems like a happy coincidence, but things turn sour when the engineer on board, Cogs, is killed.

With everypony on board panicking and accusing Vinyl, Octavia helps her prove her innocence and save the rest of the passengers by unveiling the real killer.

Navigating suspects such as an unhinged weather pony, two inventor brothers, and an art dealer from Prance, both ponies have their work cut out for them.

Rated teen for m-m-murder.
Spoilers may be in the comments!
