A person who was givin an unfair hand in life now gets another chance in the land of Equestria. Now givin the name Spiracle, he's put into an unfortunate situation at first, and must escape the clutches of Chrysalis with his best friend and pseudo brother, Thorax. With the help and advice of a Zebra named Zecora, he manages to create a disguise and name to fit, Fifth Wisdom.

He gains a spell that allows him to go into the Everfree dissonance, a place where the blinded minds of creatures reside, where through recovering the eyes that allow them to see the world for what it is, he changes their minds for the better. He then meets a strange being that offers to help him in saving the world from chaos, along with a group of unlikely allies. Join Fifth Wisdom as he makes friends with the ponies of the world while he attempts to improve it through his adventures of dubious moral efficacy.

you don't need to have played any of the persona games to understand what happens in this story, but it may help in understanding the main character's past, who's a reincarnation of Goro Akechi. As long as you didn't reveal that spoiler, this fanfiction should be spoiler free for Persona 5.

Rated T in case of mild language

Shortly after Queen Chrysalis' defeat at Canterlot, her army is demoralised and hungry, and the Queen herself is at her wits end - having locked herself in her bedroom, presumably to spare her subjects from her upcoming mental break in a short moment of compassion.

The Queen that leaves the room is far different from the one that entered it.

Queen Chrysalis, seemingly revitalised in her entirety, declares a change in course for her and her subjects. She promises to lead them to a new battlefield... and she swears victory in her name.

Warning: This story and this description both contain spoilers for the Web Novel: Worm. If you don't want to be spoiled, read Worm first, then come back and read this

The apocalypse had come at the hand of a god-like multidimensional alien entity. Taylor Hebert, a parahuman with power over bugs and bug-like things has her powers altered by a former enemy and subsequently uses morally questionable means to make everyone in existence with superpowers fight this evil deity, eventually defeating him.

This however came with a cost. Her mind was deteriorating as her power was subsuming her. Thus another cape decided it would be a mercy to put a pair of bullets in the back of her skull.

Another entity witnessed all of this. This entity, grateful for Taylor's role in stopping this alien god and thus saving countless worlds and thus countless lives, decides to intervene. It brings Taylor to Equestria turning her into a Changeling Queen in the process.

(Warning, Dark, Death, and/or Tragedy may be added to the list of tags in the future, depending on how things go. Furthermore, the Suicide tag is for the references to suicide in the description and in the first chapter. Suicide and/or self harm will NOT be a major theme in this story.)

(This is a crossover with the web novel called Worm by the author Wildbow. I highly recommend reading it if you haven't, it's a really good story!)

This story is a sequel to Entrenchment

The 38th Company brought many strange and novel things to Equestria.
Technology beyond Canterlot's wildest fantasies. Horrors beyond its bloodiest nightmares.
War, strife, blight, and the dominion of monstrous gods long hidden from the eyes of Equestria's innocent populace.

But the planet known as Centaur III knew the touch of dark magics and evil cults long before the Iron Warriors took their first step upon its soil and constructed their blasphemous idols.
The plot to plunge the world into darkness left many wounds and ancient grudges to fester.
The story of the thestrals, the bat-winged soldiers of the Lunar Guard, is one of misery, bitterness, and betrayal. Their history is little more than desperate quests for power and anticlimactic failures, all mere footnotes now as the survivors quietly return to service under their humbled, purified Princess.

Alas, some scars do not heal.
You reap what you sow.

Side fic based on Five Score, Divided by Four by TwistedSpectrum. The reading of that story is NOT required, but highly recommended, in order to understand what is going on in this one.

Sweetie Drops was a former agent of the former Equestrian intelligence agency known as S.M.I.L.E. After the agency was destroyed and its agents murdered by their benefactor, Prince Blueblood, Sweetie went into hiding under the alias of Bon Bon, Ponyville's local candy maker.

Blueblood publicly denounced the agents as rebels against the princesses in a political move to advance his position among the nobility while the public was made to believe the lies made to tarnish the fallen agents' reputations.

Years after the incident, Sweetie could not forget the atrocities that Blueblood had committed and she felt an increasing desire to avenge her comrades.

Discord gives her that chance.

In exchange for participating in eight years of galactic wars, Sweetie will gain the means necessary to right the wrongs that Blueblood has committed.

Lyra will be there to support her every step of the way.

This story will cover Starcraft 1, Brood War, and all 3 campaigns of 2.

How do you begin to teach children the cautionary tales of, well, being overly good? When should we stop pushing our lessons of virtue and goodwill to them so they can learn the valuable lesson of self-preservation? At what point do we ever learn that things like self-interest are not necessarily bad concepts?

In the colorful world of Equestria, these questions become more poignant. As I watched my friend be reduced to nothing, I understood the perversion in those unbridled ideas.
