Cozy tells the untold tale of her time growing up at Sunrise orphanage. Where her intelligence makes her an outcast until she befriends another filly named Aurora who starts to idolize her. Cozy and Aurora Grow up practicing chess with each other and this leads to Cozy realizing she has real passion for the game. This is until disaster strikes which puts Cozy on a dark path.

This will be my submission to the 4th annual Cozy Glow short story contest.

Oh, and the Prompts used are "Gap story" and "And that was when she realized that it had all gone wrong"

I am Spur. I'm a fourteen year old teenage filly who lives on the bayou with my Ma and Pa. Most of you know me because of my little sister.

My little sister was Cozy Glow. One of the most reviled villains in Equestrian history.

Some praise for My Sister, Cozy Glow:

I had just finished watching the finale, which killed my incentive to write, but upon reading this, I'm glad to say that it brought it back. Thank you for writing this, MicahDebrink. --IReadYouWrite

Man, there's so much emotional depth packed into each and every word. --Thought Prism

This fic is far outside my usual fare but I am still enjoying it immensely. --SockPuppet

But she can't tarry too long, for she has a long-overdue meeting to attend.

*Takes place a couple of centuries after the end FIM*

In an instant, six lives are tragically taken. Luna, Cadance, and her brand new baby daughter Flurry Heart are the only survivors. Now the two princesses must raise the heir to the Crystal Empire together, though Cadance blames Luna for the events of her family's deaths.

Very loosely based on Friendship Is Tragic II: A Tale of Two Princesses by Scribbler Productions.

The title is a line from the song “Just A Dream” by Carrie Underwood. https://youtu.be/jLntFKtR66g

Death is the equalizer of all mortal souls, so it is only right that an immortal princess—the princess of the night—is the one who guides these souls to their eternal home. Before each of these ponies crosses the threshold, they are automatically sent to the dream realm, where Luna grants three of their most fervent wishes, some of which are heartbreaking, uplifting, or both. This is a collection of stories of a few of those departed souls, both young and old, and the princess who gave a peaceful journey home to all of them.

Luna goes to Manehattan Comic Con in disguise, meeting and spending the day with an online friend there.

Just a quick thing I needed off my mind. Nothing fancy, just a bit of cute, and a bunch of geeking out.
