Long before I took the name Songbird Serenade, I met Princess Nightmare Moon. It changed me forever. It revealed in me a strong—and I fear evil—certainty that has affected the lives of many ponies. This is the story of that meeting on the morning of the 1000th Sun Celebration, and its continuing aftermath.

An Equestria Daily story post on Sept 20, 2018. (Changed from Certainty: Songbird Serenade, Knight of Equestria because its length caused card view to mangle the title.)
First sequel: Knight of Equestria: Discordant Harmony

This story is standalone, but slots into the Enforcerverse. There will be a sequel. Thanks to DoContra for all your coaching to get me through this project, and to make it much more readable! Thanks to Loganberry for help with dialectal issues and a POV issue to do with FM's cutie mark.

A lot has changed in one millennium alone, especially considering the rise of Equestria as many have come to know so to speak of: even with its reconciliations, there were certain events that couldn't be avoided no matter what came before, during, and after as is; of course, such aspects were common knowledge in and out of the homeland, even the sheer scale and magnitude was rather variable.

Out of many, one father out of many gets to do a lookback on the series of events that had brought him to this point in time altogether: a humble lover stricken with heartache going on heartbreak as growing pains and shrinking pleasures became a daily occurrence; even now, his thoughts become sporadic, especially after watching his pride and joy becoming a burning memory, for want of hyperbole.

In any case, the idea to abandon loneliness is nothing more than an existential reminder of what fates could await for us all no less: individuals such as himself knew this all too well and is the more enough reason wherefore both family and friends are requirements; of course, even the longest lasting relationships aren't immune to such mundane things so commonplace in and out life.

Capper's life is perfect. He's got a million-bucks mansion full of comforts, the biggest wardrobe in the kingdom, filled with the latest in Pantheran fashion, and everyone loves him! Certainly, we can all agree that things couldn't get any better for this lucky cat. But what if they got worse?

My own take at Capper's backstory. Based off some events from the IDW comics, I wanted to write something that made more sense with the official character descriptions.

My name doesn't matter anymore, it was lost long ago, but now the locals called me Kenjin. This is my story as a wondering swordsman, journeying from Equestria to beyond...

(The Movie starts in about six chapters, which means storm king, skystar, and Silverstream won't appear until then, Main Six unfortunately, won't be the secondary protagonists for this book, but they'll appear for about four chapters though.)

This story is a sequel to Twilight Daylight

After the birth of Fresh Dawn, Queen Twilight "Arcadia Nova" Sparkle of Psera is ready to begin a new life with her husband King Shimmering Madun. But Twilight has a question on her mind. Why could only she and Flurry Heart, both Equestrian, gain a boost in magic that only Pserateps could gain, evident by their wing size? The investigation begins once a sudden conference to keep Psera in an elegant dark leads her back to Equestria.

Isn't it odd that Equestria managed to pull themselves out of a metal shortage so fast? Was the question bouncing around the minds of the leaders of Equestria's allies. From Mount Aris' Queen Novo to Zebrica. Including the Dragon Lands' Dragon Lord Ember. Questions arise at the Annual International Summit located in The Crystal Empire. And why is Equestria restricting access to Ponyville and Las Pegasus?

When a bunch of plagues begin to riddle the foreign lands, it causes more questions then answers. What happened to Narmeelah? And why?

This story is a sequel to The Storm Dragon

When Spike finally gets his happy ending, he realizes that he’s not truly happy.

Trixie came to Ponyville with one goal in mind; she wanted to spend some quality time with Starlight. Because it’s Ponyville, and because she’s Trixie, that, of course, meant everything Trixie planned for would fall apart. Now, she’s being dragged all around town by her best friend and getting into trouble with the town all over again. Trixie swears none of this could be her fault, right?

On hiatus as of 7/27/21. Rewrite pending.

Credit to crazydiamond for his help in editing.

Princess Luna, growing evermore aware that Equestria has come under attack in recent days by a seemingly invisible foe, decides to petition Princess Twilight Sparkle to allow her to found an organisation in order to combat the threat.

And so begins the strange tale of the Nightmare Knights, Equestria's newest reformed team of villains, as they bring peace, justice, order and security to the world--one ghastly ghoul at a time.

You might be afraid of ghosts. But they ain't.

30 years. 30 years since Sunset has been gone from Equestria. A simple error within the mirror portal prevented Sunset from going back and forth to Equestria at ease, now with the mirror portal fixed, how much has changed within Equestria?

Time dilation and technological progress does funny things towards a certain fiery maned unicorn.

Story will be set in an Equestria with 1950s-1960s technology. And inspired by the wonderful art drawn by Light262.

They might have Grogar bell, they might be able to defeat Twilight and her friends. But the three of them believe that before and in the end their plans ended up in failure.

To make sure this time they don’t fail again this trio of villains will do a quest to find something to make sure that if things don’t go according to plan, they can still win thanks to a plan B.

Unfortunately that might cost them more trouble that they initially thought.

This story takes place before The ending of the end.

Originally this story was going a be an entry for the Cozy Glow Short Story Contest but eventually it got longer than I expected… and well, I thought it would be a shame to cut so much from the story. So I won’t be summiting this to the contest, I’m still happy with the final result and I wish luck to the rest of participants.

I appreciate any criticism. Especially on grammar and spelling because I write these stories as a way to practice english.
