My name is Phoxjes Rome. I am a Mark of Babylon, and this is my story. My world... THIS world... Equestria, has fallen into disaster. One pony has destroyed everything, and hurt the ones I care for, so now I will reflect that pain onto her. Twilight.
Teddy Styles. Ace Vendetta. Lancerlot Governor Vanguard III. These three colts live three lives that no-one deserves. My Babylonians cannot allow them to stay the way that they are. I must show them another way; I must show them their destinies.
While studying an alien spellform, Twilight makes the most important discovery of all time... The one which could doom her planet. | Horror Rationalfic with Lovecraftian & World of Darkness elements. Deconstruction / Subversion of Displaced.
A slightly different start to Discord's reformation with a more cautious Celestia, a reluctant yet curious mane six, and a willing-and-wanting-to-try Discord that has promised to leave Equestria if he cannot get along with ponykind to a degree.
After the Tantabus, Luna is met by Discord in her dreams. Who, for some reason, is a batpony. Upon confronting him, she learns that it really was him, but in the oddest way possible, and that there is much more to Discord than the one they know.
Discord won, never giving Harmony or the Alicorns a second chance to defeat him. With the sisters banished and the Chaos Throne looming over Equestria, the ponies will find Discord's reign isn't as evil as they were led to believe. Hail to the King.
This day could've been just perfect, the kind of day of which I've dreamt since I was small. But from too many betrayers, screwups, disgraces, and failures. Now the wedding bells will never ring at all.
Everypony likes to remember how happily the wedding ended. But what if they weren't so lucky? What would the future of Equestria be like if things hadn't worked out during that time?
