When a unicorn possesses more natural power than a non-alicorn can hold, consequences take shape. Starlight is one such mare that is victim to the hold of possessing too much magical power for her form to hold. This is her internal struggle.
In the wake of Starlight's graduation, Twilight Sparkle worries her friends may be growing apart. Clearly, the best way to deal with this is a few mugs of cider.
Starlight succeeds in killing the only pony who could be able to unite the six Ponies and thus permanently strip Twilight of her Cutie Mark... Shame she didn't read the fine print on time travel and realize the old Grandfather Paradox.
Starlight Glimmer has a lot to learn. Not just about friendship, but life in general. She finds help in the most unlikely of places. When a peace-loving mare comes to town, Starlight may have unintentionally found more than friendship.
When Starlight Glimmer discovers a locked door in Twilight's castle, she is determined to discover what it is hiding. This story was my entry for the Forbidden Knowledge writeoff.
