Set in between In the Dark of the Night and Letting Go.

The road to recovery is never an easy one. And nopony would know this better than Zipp Storm.

It’ll be a long and difficult path. Much self doubt and fear plague the young princess.

Thankfully, she has friends and family who will be helping her no matter the challenge.

Opals form from layer upon layer of microscopic silica spheres, the countless reflections brought on from eons of accretion giving impressions of nigh-infinite depth. Because there isn't a single crystal structure, they are more fragile than other gemstones, and can crack due to sudden changes in pressure or temperature.

Opaline Arcana is formed from layer upon layer of mental instabilities, the countless delusions brought on by eons of isolation giving impressions of nigh-infinite evil. And she already cracked a long time ago.

Now that Misty feels comfortable enough to discuss the topic, her new friends will find out just how deep the damage goes.

An ineligible entry for Imposing Sovereigns IV, using the prompt Opaline/Loyalty, set around Chapter 5 of Make Your Mark.

This story is a sequel to Forgotten: Sunrise

A new student has come to Sunset Shimmer's fledgling magic school in Bridlewood, and she immediately begins to arouse the headmare's suspicions...

Ms. Harshwhinny is a bit infamous for her cold, serious demeanor. She's a mare that knows how to get things done. She's a professional, for crying out loud!

How you, a human, ended up getting ordered around by her is a long story. Either way, you have some very serious business to attend to tonight.

Excuse me? My name is Discord thank you very much, and I didn't steal Hearth's Warming at all! Honestly, how rude, and not to mention a flagrant instance of shameless clickbating.

Oh whatever. Here's some story about how I "learn" the importance of charity from my dear friend Fluttershy. If only the author were half as pleasant.

No one forced you to take control of the narration.

You did the moment you decided to write a story about me. Really, this is all your fault.

Moving on!

Written for Dafaddah for Jinglemas 2023. We hope you enjoy!

When Princess Twilight Sparkle suffered "one of those days" that pushed her to her breaking point, Spike worked to salvage the rest of her day. He was driven to ensure what the stressed Princess of Friendship still needed done would get done, perfectly.

However, once the bad luck that plagued Twilight started targeting Spike, his self-appointed mission threatened to push him to his own breaking point.

The idea for this story was requested by wonderkid125 and is the first of my two 5th-year anniversary stories of opening my account on this site. Man do time flies...

Not long ago, a strange creature named Anon wandered into Maretime Bay. It was clear from the get-go that he needed some help, but not everypony was immediately accepting of the strange creature. So, it fell to Sunny Starscout and her friends to look after the new arrival.

...At least, that was what they thought. When their backs were turned, Anon made an unlikely friend, and she was the last pony they expected to see him with. Posey Bloom isn't exactly known for getting along with others.

And yet, she adores him.

Sunny wants to get to know Spike better after their battle with Opaline, so she takes a trip to the Isle of Scaley for a simple conversation between friends. Unfortunately, Spike seems incapable of grasping this one simple fact about her. Together, the two of them attempt to settle the dispute as to whether or not Sunny truly qualifies as a princess once and for all.

She…might not like the answer though.
