It has been a couple of months since Sunny and Zipp were stranded in the Everfree Forest. Their encounter with Anon still weighs heavily on Sunny's mind, so it comes as a pleasant surprise when he arrives in Maretime Bay one quiet morning.

However, although he is eager to speak to Sunny and Zipp again, Anon begins seeing more similarities between the past and the present than he is comfortable with. As a result, Sunny, Zipp, Pipp, Izzy, Hitch, and Misty find themselves under a great deal of pressure to do something that Anon doesn't seem too keen on explaining fully.

What is it that has Anon, immortal spouse of the long-deceased Celestia, so anxious? What is he trying to accomplish?

And what is he so desperate to hide from Sunny?

After Opening the country, Queen Novo wanted to share the idyllic paradise of Mount Aris and Seaquestria with the world and so the hippogriffian tourism industry was born.

With only a few tourist remaining and the hurricane upon them, many tour guides and hotel staff are left with nothing to do. One of them being Azurmar, a tour guide working on the surface platforms of Seaquestria.

The Hurricane was starting to dissipate yet Azurmar´s mind was still cloudy.

This story takes place in the Equestria at war universe, which is a mod for the game Hearts of Iron 4.

There once was a stallion who dreams of running away far from what he knows, from his very home. When he's awake, there is nothing but pain, the encroaching fear of loneliness, and less-than-helpful suggestions from within his psyche. When he's awake, he has to face the world around him, another nightmare.

The stallion is overwhelmed by this truth that he tries to dream it away by running...galloping to places unknown; anything to get away from this painful truth. But no matter how far his hooves take him, he is always back at the start.

He needs help, but not from professionals. He needs somepony to be there for him; an anchor; a friend. What he needs is a beacon of light to shine away the gnawing darkness. Even when guided, he will have to do most of the work.

This is his last chance to fight against the fearsome tide that threatens to sweep him away, and the one inside his psyche trying to drag him under the surging waves.

What will be witnessed is the beginning. The rest is an uncertain future.

This story is a sequel to JTHW: Journey To Hearth's Warming

17 months ago Canterlot was ripped apart and remade, Ponyville was destroyed, the main six vanished, the princesses were defeated, and a new group the Anti-Six rose. Now what is left behind for us to find? Seeing 9 ponies intertwined together in 17 months of living hell. See the start, the end, and then the confusing stuff in between.

This is an anthology story, with almost every 17 months getting one chapter per season. Most will get around six chapters in all so I'm guessing a series of six seasons. However, once introduced, Month 17 and Month 2 will get extra chapters between every 4 months, because their months will be covering more events.

Much like my Hoodwinked series, to ensure no overloading, each chapter will be around 1k words, including the longer stories. Plus, I will be posting three chapters each month. Seasonal breaks are akin to my Journey To Hearth's Warming series, but with winter breaks at the end of November and returning in February.

For those wondering, yes, this is a remix of my Friendship Lost. Rather instead of trying to post multiple stories at once and hoping everyone stays in the loop, I've decided to just combine them all into one story. Yeah, some plot points have changed, but some paths haven't. This means, yes, Flash Sentry will be a grey character in the future, but in the past... well you are just going to have to read and find out how he gets there.

As for its connections to Journey To Hearth's Warming. At most you are required to read Season 1 episode 3, and the Season 6 Prologue. That's it. Nothing else is required for a good while in this story.

The idea behind the cover is it's what everyone sees upon looking at Canterlot now. By taking the classic image of Canterlot and splicing it through several photoshops then pasting the strange pieces of each over top of the original and then shredding it with draw n copy n paste. It's meant to feel very very wrong.

Sunset was just walking out on the beach, late at night, when she sees Adagio, standing on the pier, overlooking the ocean. Fearing for the Siren, Sunset rushed over to help her.
Instead, she ends up nearly drowning, with an annoyed Adagio having to take care of her as she gets driven back to her house.

This story is a sequel to Boast Busters - Extended Cut

An Extended Cut side story, the first second of its kind!

It's been a couple weeks since Rainbow Dash left Gilda behind in Innsbeak, and she's had time to think. It isn’t going well. A follow-up to Griffon the Brush Off: Extended Cut.

The aging Eros used to be the Archon of the Church of Boreas, Regent of the Griffonian Empire, bent on uniting Griffonia under the Imperial banner.

No more. Not after the undead devoured the world, led by the Queen of Bones, a unicorn named Rosa Maledicta. Her goal: to annihilate all life and usher in an eternity of death. She has almost won, for the souls that yet live are a dwindling, single-digit few.

Armed with nothing but holy water and holy bread, this lonely griffon of holy robes thus seeks out Rosa in the wasteland that is the north.
