Two weeks have passed since magic has returned to Equestria. In those two weeks, the ponies of Bridlewood, Maretime Bay, and Zephyr Heights have begun to merge, traveling to one another's homes and exploring the new world that Sunny Starscout and her friends have created. To learn about their magic and how the other races have lived their lives all this time.

It is a new age, one that a lone unicorn Shining Star has been trying to achieve for most of her life. One that she and her husband Argyle had worked to achieve for as long as they had been together. It is a dream come true, one that their own daughter had a hoof in creating.

Now, Shining Star travels to Maretime Bay in the hopes of finally meeting the daughter she has been forced to watch grow up from afar for so many years.
======================================================================================
Behold, my first G5 story is now ready to go! All based on an idea I had revolving around the fact that we have yet to meet Sunny's mother. Also, a quick shout out to Dr.Wolf over on Youtube for helping to encourage this idea in his own video detailing who Sunny's mother might have been.

Please enjoy

This story is a sequel to Hope

Here you will find the stories about the residents of Pasofino, and the ageless realm of Equestria in which they live. Each chapter is meant to take but a moment to read, and may or may not be in chronological order. I have made an attempt in every tale to highlight the time period.

(These are side-stories to the trilogy of Order from Chaos, Justice, and Hope.)

(Psst. It liiiiives.)

Manehattan is such a big place for such little ponies. High rises and concrete make for quite an uninviting, if alluring vista. With so many homes, offices, and shops squished close and stacked high, naturally it's going to get claustrophobic and stuffy; especially so during the summer, where the concrete jungle truly lives up to the moniker. Thankfully, there's one mare on a mission to provide a brand-new, life-saving commodity: air conditioning!

Airflow, the air mare extraordinaire, steps up to rescue ponies everywhere from Celestia's blistering sun (as all batponies should strive for). Join her and her acquaintances as she brings forth the dawn of a new age in home comfort! She'll soon learn however, that not everypony is so appreciative of her rising success...

Cover art was a commission of Airflow by the exceptional Cosmalumi!

As Prince Solaris, I have been alone for far too long. My world, my Equestria, is gone, destroyed by my own actions. I have been immortal, forced to watch as everything I once knew crumbles to dust. My body has withered and shrunken, my wings and horn broken. I am a shadow of my former self, a reminder of my failure.

I blame myself for everything, for the destruction of my world, for the death of my sister. I have been consumed by grief and sorrow for so long that I can hardly remember what it felt like to be happy.

But now, I have been given a glimmer of hope. I have been transported to an alternate version of my world, one where my counterpart, Princess Celestia, still reigns. It is hard to believe, but I cannot help but feel a spark of excitement at the thought of being able to make amends for my past mistakes.

I know that I am not the same as I once was, and that I have much to learn and to do before I can truly be a prince again. But for the first time in a long time, I have hope. And that is something I will hold onto tightly as I move forward.

Celestia has given Sweetie Belle a rare opportunity to become an exchange student where she can bring friendship to a whole new world’s students of magic. Elsewhere, Theodore Nott has been given a similar opportunity: turn down his Seventh Year at Hogwarts in order to learn powerful magic from the cursebreakers of the Equestrian Crystal Empire.

Neither of them has the slightest idea what they are about to experience over the next year.

Mercy Andromeda had always wanted to go to space, ever since she was a little filly. When she wakes up to her life-long dream after a devastating act of sabotage from the zebras, she finds a horror story in the aftermath. She forgets her dream and goes down to talk some sense into the ponies below.

No pony seems to take her seriously, and she resorts to using her highly advanced "assets" to get them to listen. Between pink clouds, raiders, and comic books, she'll prove to the wasteland that she's a mare worth their attention.

How will the wasteland survive when a mare with conservative views and ideals descends upon them looking like she just jumped out of a comic book?

Based on the story by Kkat: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/119190/fallout-equestria

Six hundred years passed since Twilight Sparkle, princess of Equestria, rose to the throne. She is dutiful. She is wise. She is watchful. She is miserable. The land bears the fruits of her tireless reign. The people are happy and flock to her court to pay their respects to their leader.

In the north, the Crystal Empire lay forgotten by Her Majesty Twilight Sparkle. Beyond that, a mountain range lay ignored by most, its secrets whispered by some. Twilight Sparkle knows there is a Question hidden inside that must be asked, but she is no foolish pony, and her duty is to her people, to Equestria. She does not step into the mountains. She does not follow the gnawing at the back of her mind to investigate their secrets. She does not venture through wind-blasted canyons and frigid reaches to try and glimpse a truth that escapes her.

All hail Twilight Sparkle! All hail the Princess of Equestria!

Twilight’s surge of uncontrolled magic changed ponies into pot plants, hatched a petrified dragon egg and gave her Princess Platinum study plushie a makeover and an existential crisis.

Celestia’s still not sure how to deal with that one, but at least Twilight has someone to remind her to eat now.

Twilight Velvet's mother, Evening Star was an odd pony with a hobby of making dolls. Over the course of her life, she made many and most were simple toys to comfort a newborn foal or young filly but a rare few were far more sentimental and held more personal meanings. Some said they had a bit of personality all their own, often being in the right place perk up a sad day. Her last few creations carried with them fables of moving when no pony was watching but few ever tried to put the theory to the test.

Then again, none of her works were at ground zero to a record breaking magic surge.
