Twilight and Rarity argue about historical fiction. Clover and Platinum are disappointed with their new gods.

(2019-03-30) Featured on Equestria Daily!

This story is a sequel to A Wish for the Ages

Rarity never thought she’d be asked to reprise her role as Princess Platinum, especially not this way, and especially not involving her sister as well. But she understands the importance to Equestria and Unicornia.

Even if it might mean that she can’t be Rarity ever again.

This story is a sequel to The Princess that Equestria Never Had

Although this fic is listed as a sequel, you won't be missing anything if you read this fic without reading Never Had.

After traveling through time to stop Starlight Glimmer from changing the course of history, Princesses Celestia and Luna give Twilight Sparkle the opportunity of a lifetime: the chance to study under Star Swirl the Bearded himself! Nothing can go wrong with such a powerful time travel spell in such capable hooves. Twilight knew there was something familiar about Clover the Clever when she read the Journal of the Two Sisters, but she never knew exactly how familiar.

Based off a theory developed by DRWolf001 and written with his permission, with additional hypotheses developed by The Brony Notion.

7/4/20 UPDATE: After attending a panel from my friend Vivid Syntax I've decided to mark this story as "complete" and start a new story for the rest of Twilight's time as Clover the Clever. More details in a blogpost.

Before the Windigos arrived in Equestria, three tribes were starving for food. There was no friendship between the separate pony species, and things are only growing worse.

This story follows Cobalt, a young unicorn prince who was brought up to be selfish and cruel towards all other pony species. His life changes when he meets Dahlia, a lowly earth pony mare, and forms a tentative friendship. When his father declares war on the earth ponies and his new friend's life is at risk, will Cobalt be able to blindly turn away and stay loyal to his family and home? Or will he betray them for the mare who wants nothing to do with him?

Taking place prior to the backstory told within Hearth's Warming Eve, this story tells the tale of just how badly the relationship between the three tribes was before the Windigos arrived in Equestria.

The epic story detailing how thousands of years ago Starswirl the Bearded defeated the Sirens and banished them from Equestria, how they were exiled to the Mediterranean island of Capri, and what happened next.

“You will come to the Sirens first of all; they bewitch any mortal who approaches them. If a man in ignorance draws too close and catches their music, his wife and children will never welcome him home again; the high clear tones of the Sirens will bewitch him … you must stop the ears of all your crew with sweet wax that you have kneaded, so that none of the rest may hear the song.”
Homer

This story is a sequel to The Symphony of Dawn

Princess Platinum is in mourning after the death of Clover, her faithful companion. Yet, she is unwilling to know just how deep their bond really was. Instead, the noble-born unicorn mare is willing to take it to her grave... and with it, all the less-than-noble things she did to defend that secret.

A stand-alone sequel. Edited by TCC56. Inspired by the original Imposing Sovereigns contest. Had this been official, 'Madwoman Platinum' would have been my prompt. Contribute to the TVTropes page!

With rumors rising of multiple break outs in the royal castle's dungeon, Clover takes it on herself to investigate. But she becomes more curious when she realizes the Council of High Mages are keeping something dangerous in the dungeon.

It's a tale long forgotten, and lost to time. How a filly who was all forgotten about until the end of days was rediscovered, and given a chance to redo her choices. But old tendencies die hard, and the future of Equestria is put at risk by Cozy Glow and her plan to rewrite history according to her desires.

There are many things Clover would like to be doing today: Studying the unexplained magic that saved the world last night, discussing the new nation she and her friends are founding, even spending time with those friends, enjoying having ponies around who actually like her for once.

Attending a party is not among those things. Interacting with the unicorn nobles who hate her is definitely not among those things. And giving up the ratty mage's robes she's worn for years as she suffered their judgement is absolutely not on the list.

But Princess Platinum is throwing a party, and Clover will be there and presentable, whether she likes it or not.

This is a stand alone story in the same setting as Sun and Hearth. It was written for FanOfMostEverything's Imposing Sovereigns contest, and I'd like to thank Themaskedferret, bats, Bradel, and Merc the Jerk for prereading.

How did Celestia finally gain her cutie mark? What happened between Equestria's establishment and Celestia's enthronement? It's a bygone story forgotten by most of the ponies, lost in the dense fog of history. But there was a time that Equestria was not a paradise of friendship and harmony. A time when our characters struggled for an uncertain future in the mire of reality. It was an epoch of upheaval, when a prisoner can be royalty, and a princess can be a scourge.
