This story is a sequel to A Late Night Visitor

Kyra is a bounty hunter who spends her days serving the ponies of Equestria by ridding the world from all manner of evil-doers. Bandit gangs making roads unsafe? Kyra will solve your problem. Monsters causing a panic in your town? Kyra can handle it for you, no problem. Need someone to get rid of that annoying neighbor without drawing attention? Find somebody else.

In case I wasn't clear, Kyra's a bounty hunter, NOT A MURDERER, you nut job! In fact, that's why Kyra retired. She's had enough of solving other pony's problems, and it's time she took a well-deserved vacation. Unfortunately, she'll find that quitting won't be as simple as she thought.

It has been a thousand years since Princess Celestia became the Daybreaker by banishing Nightmare Moon. It has been a thousand years since She ascended to become the God-Empress of a reforged, prosperous Equestria: the Solar Empire.

But beneath its glimmering, golden surface, the Empire is a rotting, corrupted husk of what Equestria could have been.

Into this twisted world, enter Orion, the sole son and heir of the God-Empress. His alicorn heritage and destiny has the potential to shape that of Equestria—if he can break out of his ivory tower...

Dragons are terrifying for none can hear the words inside the roars. Fluttershy, the only pony to understand them, is silent and terrified for a different reason. The girls are attacked by a foul group, but are saved by a silent, purple dragon.

Canterlot has sent a witchhunt for dragons in the surrounding area. There are knocks at the door. Fluttershy answers to find her saviour—bleeding, quiet, and on the run. Saving him means more than stopping the bleeding.

The guards are still looking. Friends harbour pains and prejudice against all of his kind. Mobs gather in fear of the unknown. And Fluttershy, deeply knowing dragons, fears them for a different reason. Yet she's the only one that will be able to understand what this kind dragon has to say.

Will she be able to save him? Will this one be different from the rest? How did Fluttershy acquire this ability? Why does Twilight regard all dragons with scorn?

The clock is ticking; the witch hunt is on.

Tirek, Chrysalis, and Cozy Glow were expecting to face off against Twilight Sparkle and the Elements of Harmony one final time. Instead, they faced off against something...so much worse.

Your wish is my command, my queen.

Kale Crunch only wanted to start a new life as a farmer, but the growing darkness in the world seeps into his life and the lives on those around him. All he can do is strive to carry forward, and hope for when Sunday comes.

They say that if you put your heart to something...anything is possible. What if I told you that your deepest wishes and desires is just one trip away? Scootaloo can't fly...but all of that change with one thing...11.

Unambitious, uncaring, simple, and utterly dull. Those are but a few adjectives that can accurately describe the lowly griffon, Gunther. A tailor, who's recently just received a boom in popularity from the newly elected Reformisten party, of Ordensstaat Hellquill. The griffon, while appreciating the newly attained profits and company, comes to question his role in society. And the life he lives now.

Fluttershy has several errands to do, leaving both Angel Bunny and Discord to boil in their own spite and yearning.

Now, what will happen when an angry Angel, feeling forgotten, is believed to have ran into the dangerous, nefarious, fearsome Everfree Forest, forcing Fluttershy to go after him? Despite believing to know her way back, with glowing eyes of horrible, ghoul-like creatures watching her every move, is Fluttershy truly safe?

Ever since he was a foal, Light Flow had always known he was destined to be a villain—but not just any villain; no, he wanted to be a Necromancer.

He had always been obsessed with reading fiction stories about the forbidden practice of Necromancy, and much to his delight, his cutie mark spelled his unavoidable destiny as a member of his oh-so revered profession!

But Necromancy is extremely taboo, and very illegal. Equestria hadn't even seen a genuine Necromancer since the times of the fabled Nightmare Moon.

Substituting joy for dread, Light Flow knew that he would have to hide his especially special talent at any cost. Whether in his daily, mundane life as a bookish nerd, or in the heat of extreme danger.

Good thing he doesn't have any friends, right?

I have deleted the old AN in favor of a new one.

Hello all! If you don't know me, then good! I'm a stranger, and it'd be weird if you knew who I am!

This is my first story, and basically my first experience writing something long-term. To that end, the beginning of the story is a bit rough, but I grew as a writer somewhat significantly as time went on, so it doesn't stay quite as bad!

The story itself has somewhat wavered from goal to goal as I argued with myself about what I wanted from it, though I eventually managed to settle. In its current state, it's mostly managed to stick to a strange blend of comedic tragedy interspersed sporadically with magical jargon and slice of life.

An added warning due to justified complaining: this experience can be very subdued. Not for the easily bored or angered. Personally, I tend to use Background Pony as a benchmark for a person's capability to withstand words.

Prepare yourself for lots of rants and barely coherent plot-threads!

Also i'm an idiot who probably tagged wrong.

Also i'm a bad person who stole a Jargon Scott image for the cover. (And then a wonderful person named Adin Terim edited it <3)
