Applejack has gone through a lot in her life. She's lost family, been a primary caregiver, even had a few massive shifts in her identity... And she's still standing. She's still here.

But is that enough?

Twilight Sparkle and her friends attend a celebration hosted by Princess Celestia. During the celebration, a dragon attacks and tragedy strikes. Feeling responsible for the attack, Twilight goes into exile.

As Twilight goes self-exile, Discord, the Spirit of Chaos and Disharmony, and the Changeling Queen Chrysalis have formed an alliance to end and bring an everlasting chaos in the lands of Equestria. During the process, Discord has made a deal that would divide Twilight from her friends forever.

Now, it is up to the rest of the Mane 6, including Spike, to find Twilight and rekindle their fractured friendship, if they wish to restore the Elements of Harmony once again and save the land they love.

When the Cutie Mark Crusader's plan to get their cutie marks backfire, Applejack saves them but ends up stranded deep within the Everfree Forest. Now, she must use all of her wits and skills to survive as something not belonging to this world hunts her. Meanwhile, Apple Bloom must face the guilt of what she has done before it destroys her friendships forever.

Author's Note: This is book 2 of my series. However, it isn't necessary to read book one first, there will be a few minor references to the first story, but you'll follow it just fine. But why not check it out while you wait for the next chapter?

A heated confrontation with Celestia over her portrayal as Nightmare Moon and her sister's authoritarianism leads Luna to search for answers about the past, unwittingly tangling Twilight and her friends into a cosmic struggle between order and liberty. The tragedy of the past bleeds into the present as the Royal Guard, led by the (in)famous Captain Braveheart, pursues the moon goddess as if the fate of the world depended on it. A tale dedicated to the history and government of Equestria, the psychology and political/moral philosophy of the characters, and especially that amorphous and mysterious force that so many seek yet so few gain: power. What is its nature, what drives us to pursue it and keep it? What does it mean to be a leader, a princess, or a goddess at that matter? These are but a few of the questions the characters must struggle with in order to restore harmony to Equestria. This story tries to bring an edge of realism to the political organization and history of Equestria. If you're seeking utopia or dystopia or extremes of any sort, it's not here. .

An ancient evil is about to rise from a third alicorn, and our only hope lies in the claws of a young dragon. Will he be able to stop this evil? Or will he die without telling the one he loves how he truly feels.

When the essence of fear itself knocks on ones door, one can only sink into the madness that is their own mind. Not a single soul will be able to escape the new evil that has been released on the surface of the land. But five friends -whether they like it or not- need to find and bring a stop it. All while they search for their missing friend. Things will only shroud themselves more in mystery as each of them loses themselves within their fears. ...And what truly is the cause of the fearful being? But above all, just who is behind all of it?

The answer to their questions might not be something they are willing to face, but they have to, no matter what. Though little do they know that the new terror that struck the land of Equestria, was somepony they knew very well. The frightful beauty that is nopony else than the dangerous Nightmare Rarity has been released over Equestria. With her, fear can dominate the land.

Based on a true story. Kinda. Not really.
A man named Jason previously led a rather melancholy life before he died violently. No surprise there. But as he wakes up in Equestria and is thrown into a foreign body, he is forced to survive with the guise of a changeling. Taking place shortly after the failed changeling invasion of Canterlot, how can he keep from being revealed by new security measures, and blend into this new world, while making use of the most unlikely of allies? But of course, avoiding ponies only turns out to be the easy part when trouble has a habit of reading its ugly head. Really though, what could go wrong?

Props to the ever epic Zubafa for his cover art.
