This story is a sequel to Night Of Faded Sun

It's Spring. A lovely season, to be sure, but no one has seen Sunset Shimmer in over a week. Concerned, Rarity goes to visit Sunset in her dumpy apartment. For better and worse, Sunset explains exactly why she has cut herself off from the world. Rarity must decide how to handle an uncomfortable truth.

The third instalment in Sunset's Recovery Arc.

Rated "Teen" due to frank discussion of suicide, and mild cursing.

Rarity and Rainbow Dash spend a wonderful night together—the kind of night filled with pure magic.

But how long does magic last, and can its fleeting spark be caught and held?

Applejack struggles with overcoming loss and heartache, until Fluttershy shares an important conversation with her.

Pinkie Pie regularly goes out of her way to make her friends feel good. Every one of them thanks her in their own way, but she wasn't expecting Twilight's simple little gesture to leave her so utterly and thoroughly confused.

A strange green cloud blankets the Ponyville Carnival, spiriting everycreature it touches away to an unknown location. Silverstream and Luster Dawn, the only two creatures who escaped the cloud, team up to find out who's behind it and save everyone. Along the way, they discover some surprising things—not least of which is a mutual admiration and attraction for each other.

(Note: This story is set some years after The Last Problem. Luster Dawn is an adult.)

I am eternal, and death is my steadfast companion. The passing of each generation of my little ponies weighs on me; every one of them is a fleeting, irreplaceable treasure, a snowflake dancing 'round a fire. I want to save all of them; I have the ability to save a few. I have saved none.

A pony wakes up in an empty void and discovers that it is infinitely malleable to her whims and desires.

A loving tribute to pretentious, incomprehensible mind screws.

My name's Twilight. I know this is all very new to you, but I'd like to tell you a story from a very long time ago. From before my world died.

This story is a sequel to Dragon Greed is Good

With one monetary crisis averted, another inevitably rises to take its place. This time, disaster threatens to strike as a trade dispute breaks out on the high seas between the Gryphon Navy and Equestria's largest trade company. Will the conflict escalate into a war? Will it affect the nation's import of coffee beans?

The Princess of the Night will at least make certain she solves the latter.
