This story is a sequel to History Lesson
New chapters added as I can. Apologies for the inconsistency.
History Lesson is strongly recommended as prior reading.
(Spoilers for History Lesson.)
(Duh.)
When Starlight Glimmer sabotaged the first Rainboom, she inadvertently created eight broken worlds. In this the eighth world, Chrysalis, Sombra, and a resistance led by the new Element bearers wage war against one another for control of Equestria. Princess Twilight Sparkle has tasked Starlight with restoring harmony, hope, and love to this version of Equestria; but with so much war, death, and destruction, can life ever return to the way it was supposed to be?
History Reimagined follows the path of a hypothetical eighth fallen timeline not depicted in Friendship is Magic.
Non-Con tag for implied acts only. Sex tag for discussed acts. Gore and violence tags for mild gore and fantasy violence.
