War comes to Equestria: with despair, with starvation, with suffering and with sacrifice. And the ponies must learn how to keep true to their values while surviving not just the rigors of battle, but the desolation of total war.

Rainbow Dash usually had her head in the clouds, but she always thought she knew up from down. When an incredible revelation sends her life into a tailspin, she finds herself at the mercy of emotions she never thought she had, faced with hard questions and impossible choices.

Life is full of changes, but none of them are quite as disturbing as having a horn pop out of your skull…

Original Lauren Faust canon; non-alicorn Twilight, non-alicorn Cadance, no ascension. Diverges from the cartoon after season 3, with nods to later continuity wherever possible. Contains mature themes.

When Twilight plays with magic beyond her control, she finds herself and Rainbow stuck in a strange, horrible world. When they find out what happened, will they be able to get home? Will they even want to?

A 30 minute writing challenge to take as many Mary Sue tropes and ideas as I could think of and put them all together. As the short description reads, a Mary Sue character who is supposed to be an everyman but is actually nothing more than a thinly disguised author self-insertion.

It's not intended to be taken seriously and It's written poorly on purpose.

Do you remember being born? Torn away from everything that is familiar and cast out into the unknown?

I do.

It haunts my dreams.

Nightmare Moon visits Twilight in the night, and things get biblical.

What if somepony told you that anything might have happened? The simple and the disastrous, the good and the bad. Can Twilight face the truth of what might have been her destiny?
