For over a millennium, Equestria has seen (mostly) peace, with the barest of militaries, seen as "unnecessary" due to the prolonged period of harmony and friendship that took root within the country. However, that is quickly changing. With Stalliongrad having broken free from Equestria years prior, and the Changeling hives newly reunited under Queen Chrysalis, the age of peace is coming to a quick- and bloody- end.

Set in the Equestria at War universe.

Everypony has someone who influences them, changes their lives. For Lyric, that someone was Finner, an old stallion who lived by the sea.

This story was greatly inspired by the song From Finner by Of Monsters and Men.

Many thanks to these wonderful people for helping to turn this story into the best that it could be: KellyTheDrawingUni, Protopony350, Kirito-Persona, MelancholyIguana, Will-Owl-the-Wisp, and Haycart.

This story is a sequel to Guardian Halo

So much chaos, so much death. Equestria is in turmoil, and Starswirl is in despair. How could he have ever thought that he would end it? Why did he ever think he could make a difference?

Many thanks to many of my friends for being my pre-readers and offering their feedback: Protopony350, Kirito-Persona, MelancholyIguana, and CeilingLeo.

Many thanks also to my friend Reneigh Haycart for once again being an editor, and to my friend Will-Owl-the-Wisp for also being an editor, and for the gorgeous cover art. The original can be found here.

Diamond Tiara always knew that someday she'd be invited to dine with the Princess at the Royal Palace. She didn't think it would happen like this.

But she's going to sit there and be polite and smile and not be bothered by all the ways this is all wrong. Because that's what good fillies do, and Diamond Tiara is a good filly now.

Right?

Fanart!

They say that I must send my sister to the moon for one thousand years. They say that she is too far gone, and that it is for the best. But I cannot believe that. I refuse to believe it! Luna is my sister after all, and I can still save her!

But then a small part of me asks, What if I really can't save her by myself? What if... what if they're right?

Inspired greatly by the Luteces' cameo in Trade Ya! You do not need to have played BioShock Infinite to read and understand this story.

Also, many thanks to Alicorn Airport, Kirito-Persona and Protopony350 for being my pre-readers. Many, many thanks as well to Haycart for being my wonderful editor.

And many thanks to Will-Owl-the-Wisp for the amazing cover art. You can find the original here.

Now with a story reading by myself, Wisp, and MelancholyIguana.

Warning: Some spoilers to the end of BioShock Infinite in the comments.

Bat ponies. They are a part of Equestria just as much as any earth pony, unicorn, pegasus or alicorn. They make up Princess Luna's guard. But not much is known about them. Where did these ponies come from? Who were they before? One ancient tome, penned by an explorer of a time long past, tells all.

Many, many thanks to my friend DangerCloseArt for suggesting that I do a story about bat ponies. Many thanks also to my friends Kirito-Persona, Alicorn Airport, and Protopony350 for being my pre-readers. And many thanks also go to Will-Owl-the-Wisp for being a pre-reader and editor, and for the phenomenal cover art. You can find the original here.

Caught in a rainstorm again, Derpy trudges off toward home. But along the way, she finds somepony down on her luck as well, somepony who very much reminds Derpy of her own childhood. It was a good day.

Two ponies... two stories... two ends that lead to two beginnings.

When these ponies face the ends of their lives, they are forever altered in ways they never could have imagined.

This story elaborates on some things that took place in a Heroes of Equestria campaign and that can be found in Magical Melodies and Guardian Halo. They do not have to be read for this story to be understood and enjoyed.

Rated Teen for some mild language and for some blood spilled in battle, though it's fairly minor.

When Cadance comes to foalsit Twilight Sparkle, she finds the young filly playing a pretend game of cards with her stuffed animals. Curious, Cadance joins the game, only to find Twilight is far more serious about her betting than she lets on. Can she help Twilight learn what's really valuable?

Originally meant for the Writeoff Association's January contest, "All In" but quickly surpassed the word limit and was never entered. I really liked it though, and finished it anyway.

When Starswirl the Bearded sets out to find an end to the chaos plaguing Equestria, he asks his friend Halo to accompany him. The pegasus mare has yet to earn her cutie mark, but perhaps she can find her purpose along the way...

The editing for the story, the absolutely lovely cover art, and the art in the story itself was graciously done by Will-Owl-the-Wisp.

Now with a story reading by me!
