  Stuck as an aide to a bunch of second-year students at Gifted Unicorns, Sunset Shimmer thought picking one to tutor might be entertaining… and maybe advance her plans for the mirror and her eventual ascension.
  This 'Moon Dancer' filly is just a means to an end, after all.
  So why can’t Sunset sleep after Moon Dancer storms out on her? Why are Princess Celestia and Professor Polish so concerned about her?
  But most importantly, why is Sunset starting to doubt herself?
  This was all part of the plan. Right?

I'm an atheist, a man of science. I don't believe in any deity unless I see it. However... I saw it... and I'm the only one that did.

Part of my Story Swap.

Wandering the dreamscape one night, Luna comes across a very peculiar nightmare. It seems a young filly is tormented by the meaning of her cutie mark. They say a cutie mark is a sign of a pony's special talent when they discover what they truly love. So what does it mean when one receives their cutie mark for doing nothing special at all?

Reading by Scribbler Productions

This story is a sequel to Princess Celestia: A Brief History

  When Celestia first laid eyes on Twilight Sparkle, she knew she’d seen her somewhere before. Though she’d managed to hide this from both Sunset and Twilight, after they departed for the evening, Celestia needed to be sure.
  With her trusted aide Raven at her side and a dangerous threat on the horizon, Celestia heads to the offices of the Equestrian Secret Service to investigate her suspicions.
  Because if she’s right, the possibility of eternal night is the least of Equestria’s concerns.
