This story is a sequel to Crystalline: Her Destiny


Ever scholarly Princess Twilight Sparkle can't wait to finally embark on her own arctic quest with her friends to find evidence of Starswirl the Bearded's life.

But what if things don't go as planned? When Princess Celestia orders a new companion who is a master magic user to accompany Twilight she's thrilled until she finds out on who it might be.

Her fears come to life when it turns out to be none other than Sombra. Will this ambitious Princess and the snarky loner be able to refrain from killing each other? Ancient magic awakens and history becomes vivider and its participants a little too alive as things play out.

This story is a sequel to Divine Move


Gods cannot die, so what happened so long ago that ended in the total collapse of Pre-Equestrian civilization?

After many years of unspoken tension mixed with isolated peace, those that remained have received the cryptic message many never wished to see. When such events unfold, Princess Luna recalls a desire she thought she had all but buried and leaves Equestria without a word, only to be followed by the enigmatic and arrogant Sombra.

Now Luna and Sombra – whose ways have remained undecipherable to every princess so far – try to use what knowledge they have to save the world and themselves.


Book Five and Final Book of Sombra's Odyssey. The cover art is fan art drawn by dragonofruin with edits that were done by me. Beware of the numerous unmarked spoilers in the comments! With some help from: NorrisThePony and an anonymous user. The gore and violence tags are for descriptive injuries in the scenes featuring combat, which is only a small portion of the story. The original version was rated Pretty Good in this extremely spoiler-heavy review by PaulAsaran! Contribute to the TVTropes page!

This story is a sequel to Missing Pages & Scrawled Footnotes


Before Equestria was founded and long before the Tribal Era was another age of adventures and prophecies. These are the tales of those times; the sagas of old gods and first mortals living lives of myth and magic.


All pieces are rooted in the Iceverse. This off-shoot of 'Missing Pages' holds all the pre-history goodness that never made it beyond these chapters. No short is scrapped or incomplete and any spoilers are noted in the author's notes. Pieces range from [E] to [T] and will generally contain magical combat the (hence violence tag) and traditional fairy tale and mythology grittiness (hence the teen rating and death tags). Tags do the best to reflect as much content as possible; expanded tags would include: OC, other, yaks, Smooze, Buffalo, griffins, zebra, mules, donkeys, and windigo. Updates whenever I have writing stories to add. Contribute to the TVTropes page!

Set in the 'Youngverse'

One day whilst out practising, Luna gets spooked by a butterfly and accidentally sends it to the moon. Running high on giddiness at her new power, she decides to play several pranks on her sister Celestia.

Surely nothing bad will happen, right?

The first story from Luna's and Celestia's childhood in the 'When they were Young: Luna and Celestia trilogy'.


When they were Young: Luna and Celestia trilogy.
'When They Were Young: The Box Queen and the Dracony' - Part two - Part two
'When They Were Young: Operation: Cookie Liberation' - Part three


Inspired by this comic by the wonderful Flaysch-Katzerl, go and show her art some love.

A collection of chapters now have readings by the generous Lotus Moon! Please be sure to check it out!


Little bits of world building, style experiments, character pieces, and all sorts of under 1,000 words such dumped in this anthology. I might turn them into larger stories at some point, but not really. No spoilers unless noted otherwise. May also include deleted scenes and discarded first draft snippets as well as one shots that can't stand on their own (but lack proper sequels/prequels) and cancelled stories (if I have any, they'll be moved here)*.

Character tags represent the most recurring characters, however in this case the 'Other' tag merely reflects other canon characters. Each bit takes place in the Iceverse, so your mileage may vary.


Oh, and a warning that this may also contain any of the following (which will of course be noted in the author filibuster box):

  • Poetry
  • Extensive rambling
  • Lore!
  • Really short stories
  • Dialogue-only drabble
  • Experimental poetry:trollestia:
  • Potentially unexplained happenings
  • Shipping
  • Seriously, lots of rambling from yours truly
  • Prompts
  • Since this is an AU anthology expect plenty of headcanon and utter (possibly) nonsense on my part
  • Anything else my mind may come up with (the tags will/might start to reflect this as time goes on) There's an anthology tag for that now, because knighty finally did a good thing! Wow!
  • At this point let's leave it at "(Your Ad Here) have mercy on your soul."

Although this is marked as complete, it technically isn't. I just keep it like that for organization's sake. Updates whenever I have writing scraps. If you're looking for missing Luna/Sombra chapters, please check out this story here.


*As will notes about the plot and what would have happened if I continued. This only applies to published stories that ended up cancelled, not discarded drafts. Whether or not the contents of the story is still canon will be noted in the A/N as well as the lack of a [Scrapped] tag.

Proofread by Kirito-Persona and edited by TCC56. This story can be treated as a stand-alone installment. Rated T and 'Narcotics' for significant amounts of dramatic elements and a brief moment of accidental drug use. Contribute to the TVTropes page!
