After a spell goes wrong, a mage named Connor finds himself in the so called peaceful land of Equestria. But not all is as it seems, as the already shaky relationship with the bordering griffin nation comes to a boil and Connor finds himself at the center of it all.

Trained under the watchful eye of the man that ended a war brought about the land. Dante, a young man that was trained under Corvo Attano, the Lord Protecter, the Living Shadow, the Nightwalker. And many other names that were given to the character he played in the war.

Betrayed by the very ones he trusted. Corvo was granted the power to fight back, but instead of taking his revenge on those that wronged him. He used his powers to end the mindless war without ending a single life. And thanks to him, the rightful crown was returned the land of Gristol. But along the way, towards the end of his journey. Corvo found a young boy being attacked by a group of guards for no reason.

He watched from above as the young boy, although rather small fought back against the guards until Corvo saw that he needed to send this before they killed the child. To Dante the one before him was nothing more then another live he had saved but something was different about this one. For some reason Corvo felt compelled to take this child with him. And as he reached out to the boy. He saw it. The mark that he bore on his left hand, was the same on the right hand fo the young child.

"What is your name little one?"

The boy looked at the man in the mask before him. He held his hand out to him. He was afraid but at the same time he felt the person before him ment him no harm.

"My name is Dante."

Alex Harper's life is one spent alone, until he's thrown into Equestria and, literally, crash-lands in Twilight Sparkle's library. In his search to return home, Alex finds that some of this land is much more enigmatic then he first thought. While some moments are spent learning about this new world and its inhabitants, others are much more eventful then what Alex expects. Then, there's that bitter hatred he receives from Princess Luna.

With trying to return to Earth, a psychotic businessman hellbent on driving him insane, and an alicorn princess that wants to almost stomp his bones into dust, Alex is going to have to be prepared for anything this world throws at him.

Characters include (not enough check boxes): Mane 6, Spike, Equestrian Princesses, Discord, various background ponies, and other OCs and stuff.

Pinkie's new to Ponyville, She's just been invited to work at Sugar Cube Corner and live with the Cakes while she gets to know the town. But on the way she meets a strange, blind creature with no fur, no cutie mark, and no place to live. Seeing her chance to make a friend, Pinkie quickly decides to help him, but how will this affect how the other ponies will see her with this strange blind thing?

Picture was made by my friend Escopeto. Also, not a fallen soldier story. The AU tag is because I'm setting this before Pinkie's arrived in Ponyville and things may turn out different for her, she may or may not even get Gummy.

Wow, on 9/17/2020 the remake kicked this story all the way to #2 on the popular list for a few minutes and got its first tenure on the Featured list.

Dusk Cloud has been living in Equestria for well over six or seven human years, has three wonderful fillys (Sparx, Dawn, and Pyro), and is married to the mare of his dreams: Twilight Sparkle. Five years before the happenings of this story Dusk appears from Earth, marries Twilight, and saves his son from an evil group of ponies.

Very shocking twists to the previous story. More background information, too.

Sequel to: The Cloud of Dusk

Fluttershy has always been a timid pony. It was a truth long accepted until the day she met her one and only love: that stallion who cared for her, protected her, and sheltered her from any harm... a stallion as quiet and as shy as she was.

In his embrace she grew, learned, laughed, and loved. She reached out further into the world than she ever had before, and with his support she became that mare she always dreamed she could be.

Now, as she stands overlooking the world, her memories of their times together will keep her warm when his hooves no longer can. With her final hours and the remembrance of their life together, her life will slowly fall back into place. With his confidence and her love, nothing can shake her. Now, at the end of everything, does she understand how it all went wrong.

What she doesn't understand, however, is that she's wrong about everything.
