This story is a sequel to Memories Don't Burn

This is a sequel to Memories Don't Burn, but also an interquel, as it expands upon events between that story's first and last scenes.

Queen Platinum is dying.

She is cursed, and every day she grows weaker. If she dies, the kingdom will collapse, and the three tribes will once again fragment. Centuries of unity and harmony will come to an end.

There is only one thing that might cure her – a mystical, half-forgotten potion known as the Panacea. It can cure any curse, any disease, any poison. But all magic has its price, and the greater the magic, the greater the sacrifice it requires.

Prince Hyperion will do anything to save his mother. He will find the Panacea, regardless of the cost.

Even if he isn't the one who must pay it.

Winner of the April Writeoff Competition

An unrelated-but-ongoing series of short stories and minifics birthed from the creative-juice-producing Writeoff Association. All are laid bare in their draft forms before editing / expansion (if any). Every story added here will have come from these monthly contests; as such, one should only expect updates to this collection periodically after these competitions.

My greatest thanks to everyone in the group for their constant support, be it reviews, post-contest editing assistance, or general cheery nature.

Just what is "Trinity Magic"?

After their defeat at the hands of the Rainbooms, the Sirens wanted to make a break for it, leave Canterlot, and regroup someplace else.

But with the authorities now onto them, that isn't an option.

Faced with being sent to juvy or worse, an orphanage, the Sirens are given an alternative they don't particularly like:

Being "rehabilitated" by their enemies.

At Principal Celestia's suggestion, the Sirens are separated from one another, and each is sentenced to live with one of the Rainbooms. Adagio is sent to live with Sunset Shimmer. Sonata is sent to live with Pinkie Pie.

Aria is sent to live with Fluttershy. One of these girls is in for a whole lot of trouble.
