What happens when a new mares comes to Ponyville and becomes an integral part in everyone's lives? Little Star, or better known as Estrella, is a new Earth pony arriving in Ponyville by train. She carries no luggage and only wears a cloak Princess Celestia loaned to her. With a past to make many shudder but the chance to have a life outside of that and a kind disposition, who knows what'll happen? And what else is brought along? A familiar fashionable unicorn mare meets our skittish new friend at the train to lead her to the castle when confusion ensues. A tentative friend of ours, Discord, is stirring up trouble! Before long, our new friend is left alone, and an entire new adventure ensues. Entertaining some Chaos, meeting the Princesses, becoming friends with the mane 6, and trouble on the horizon. Nightmares, strange memories, shocking revelations, a death nopony would expect, a love of the same ilk, and much more!
Who knows what's going to happen?

Not the best description, I know, but I will play with it over time until it makes better sense. This story honestly is good, despite the paragraph above. I plan on action, secrets, strange twists, a unique look on old characters, relationships, and more! I'm also open to ANY suggestions! So, hope you enjoy!

After several bloody years of war, we are about to defeat King Sombra. I almost wish we would have lost.

A human stays among ponies, mystifying them with his odd traditions and customs. It will be five years before Celestia and Twilight can send him back to his homeworld. Until then, Twilight wants to study him and have him experience pony culture. These are their stories.

The winds were a-howlin'
The dogs were a-barkin'
The night ponies met a man
Called Grand Moff Tarkin.

Spike has always had a bit of a confidence issue when it comes to being in the spotlight. However, that soon changes when a pony who practically lives on the big stage hears him play the piano.

Special thanks to Jack of a Few Trades and Quillamore for helping me organize my ideas and turn them into something legible.

What happens when something crafted by a creature with no real care for material things is taken from him? Nopony else knew the answer either. But they found out. Oh... They found out.

Rated 'Everyone' because EVERYONE needs a good knock in the teeth!

Enjoy!

Finalist and judge's top choice in Equestria Daily's 2012 Nightmare Night contest.

Fluttershy has been plagued by nightmares, and Twilight wants to help her get rid of them. But when the bookish mare begins to pry into the depths of Fluttershy's unraveling psyche, she finds more questions than answers. What do her dreams mean? Why won't they stop haunting her? And why does the creature she keeps seeing inside them seem like more than just a simple night terror?

How would a being like Discord want to be remembered after he's gone? Well, if you're curious, he did actually write a will. To the surprise of nobody, its contents are bizarre and mildly disturbing.

Part of the Borderworld.

Now with audio readings by NDLMongoose and MelancholyIguana.

Applejack tells you her only secret.
It is about a hole.
The breathing, living hole in her face.

Twilight discovers that a new tea shop has opened up in Ponyville with an owner a bit on the tyrannical and overlordy side. However, business seems to be booming, even if the proprietor is still totally evil... with his prices!

Big thanks to my editors Majin Syeekoh, Skeeter The Lurker, and Themaskedferret for all their wonderful help!
