This story is a prequel to Keeper of the Crystal Heart

Will you remember me as the one from the trees, when the forest used to sing?

Bound to the Earth, a guardian spirit maintains a constant watch over the Everfree forest. He has been so alone, for so very long. But this was not always so. He was once proud, with his partner—Rose, the weaver of dreams—at his side, until the grand deception that not only tainted him and his precious forest, but also shaped the very land of Equestria as we know it. Now for the first time, you may see and understand the mythos behind the creation of the Everfree forest, told through Ilias the Firstborn's memories: his Chronicles of Woe.

A story based upon and heavily inspired by the album Neverbloom, created by Australian melodic deathcore band, Make Them Suffer. All lyrical copyrights to S. Harmanis and Make Them Suffer. Permission to use song lyrics obtained from S. Harmanis of Make Them Suffer.

Queen Umbra lives her life with anger in her heart and spite in her soul. She's tried her hardest to serve the Empire to the best of her ability, yet no one takes her seriously due to a past she had no choice over and a curse that she can barely control. And in the midst of all this, she has forced herself to isolation from others so that none may get hurt.

That is, until happy-go-lucky party planner Bubble Berry comes along.

Now stuck with her annoying ball planner every day until the day of the ball's arrival, Umbra ends up getting caught up in the rambunctious behavior of Bubble. Not that she enjoys it... Right?

[Humanized Universe] [Slightly Crossover?*]
The existence of demons and monsters is quite widely known across Equestria. The fact that they live among us, however, is a well kept secret. Well, of course it is, silly. If things were otherwise, that would mean that I'm not doing my job properly, which is a ridiculous notion in itself. Who am I, you ask? I'm Scarlet, Equestria's very first demon slayer. And this is my story.

Marked teen for partially violent scenes.

* Scarlet's general appearance and fighting style (nothing more than those two things) are based off the RWBY series by Monty Oum. I'd have done things differently, but then where else am I going to get a cover art image that I like? You don't have to follow the RWBY series to understand the story, as nothing else will be making references or going back to its lore and plot.

Cadence is the most popular girl in school. Shining isn't really popular at all. But when Cadence shows an interest in watching his sister, their worlds collide and suddenly they realize they aren't so different after all -with Twilight stuck in the middle of it.

As the new year dawns, the top four cadets from Equestria's Royal Military Academy set eyes on enlisting in the elite peacekeeping force known as the marshals. After all, when you're the best in you class, it's obvious you belong with the best, right?

Not exactly. See, it's one thing to do well in school. It's another thing entirely to pass a test concocted by Gunmetal Graves himself. Strap in, cadets. Class is now in session.
