Rainbow Dash's mom receives a letter about her daughter's heroism in combat. Now she sits, shaking and trying her best to keep it together as she reads the letter at the kitchen table with tears coursing down. Her daughter was a hero. Was. You see, Captain Rainbow "Danger" Dash of the 91st Wing...isn't coming home.

EDIT: I was contacted and a brony (Seal2001) did a translation of it in Chinese. It's beautifully done and I think it deserves some love. You can find it in the following link

Starlight's wedding Day comes, and she is nervous about it.

Part of the Luster Dawn Successor Verse.

A young girl is lying in her bed one night, when a train arrives outside her door. What happens next will take her on an incredible journey of self-discovery, and how important simply believing is...

Based on Chris van Allsburg's classic book, and the 2004 film of the same name. My 25th story, fittingly enough.

Currently in the Popular Stories box.

When Twilight discovers she gained the power of immortality along with the ability to control the sun and moon from Celestia and Luna, she decides immortality is a fate worse than death and decides she must give her power to someone else rather than suffer generations of loss.

Now has a midquel taking place between chapters one and two, Luster Dawn Friendship Successor.

Was for a long time deleted and combined into one story after being edited. Luster Dawn New Days. Read whichever one you want but this is the original story brought back at the request of another user. The first story of the Successor Verse.

Authors Notes: These stories use a theory I developed gathering info through the mlp wiki rather than the widely believed theory that immortality is the ability of alicorns.

If you believe immortality is a gift you are entitled to your opinion, but please be respectful. I'm trying to give people who don't want Twilight to suffer the curse of immortality an alternative. I would not read this if you are someone who firmly believes immortality is a gift.

After living through a long alicorn life, Twilight's time finally comes. All of her old friends have passed on, but she still has her daughter Nyx by her side at the end. Before she reunites with everyone else, they share a moment.

Nyx is an original character from Past Sins by Pen Stroke. Credit goes to him for her creation. This is my tribute to her and that legendary story which is one of the most loved on fimfiction.

Former Princess Celestia of Equestria leaves an encouraging and comforting note for you.
