A parent will do anything for her children, even it means giving them up so that they will be safe from dangers and live in a peaceful life, despite the pain that comes for the parent.

That pain is something Princess Amore has gone through for one thousand and fifteen years, but now after being restored from her imprisonment by her fellow subjects, the time is upon her kingdom, and she wants her daughter back. Even if that means saving her adoptive Canterlot family from the Storm Kingdom.

The son of Princess Amore has lost everything and has to find his place in the world of a thousand years ago. Hoping to find a reason to move on, he wanders aimlessly everywhere accompanied by his faithful escort, a female warrior from his homeland, in a relentless search for traces of the past they left behind. In the course of their journey they meet a musician of extraordinary abilities, who unannounced joins them, determined to bring his art to every corner. Together, they gather their courage and embark on a dangerous mission to try to save the Crystal Empire, in which they must overcome the adversities along the way, discover themselves and build together not only their own destiny, but that of all of Equestria.

Turbulent times were upon the Equestria of a millennium ago. Dealing with the consequences of one evil after another and working for the sake of harmony required enormous sacrifices; sometimes the efforts of the good were in vain and the cost very high. At the end of one dark stage, much had been lost, but one sunny day heralded the beginning of an era of celestial peace. There is just so much that time erased, so much history lost from one generation to another, that the passing of the years managed to tear the roots of the past from the memory of those who live today; although some long-lived beings keep the memories of yesteryear as scars and carry with them wounds that never finished healing.

Lives, forgotten events and unanswered questions; much finds explanation in these very pages, in the epic adventure never told by any other manuscript in history, because you had to be there to live it.

To understand the present that surrounds us, one must first look beyond the crystal.

The kirin Fizzy Glitch has opened the Book of All Stories, letting loose its power to rewrite reality as its pages are scattered all over Equestria and beyond.

One of these pages, carried by fateful winds, could now change the tragic destiny of a cursed princess...


This is my written contribution to Ponyville Ciderfest 2023's Interactive Storytelling Adventure. During the convention, attendees could find special codes (#Scattered in the present case) to unlock a story, then decide which of the three factions would claim a magical page – heroes preserving the status quo, villains vying for victory, and agents of Chaos hoping to have some fun. More stories by a plethora of awesome writers can be found in the dedicated group!

Edited by Shade Hunter.


I also contributed to this project as an artist, producing the cover and some of the interior art for the book Scattered Pages: Tales from the Book of All Stories!

I've been a royal guard since I was 16. I'm 37 now and I've worn 3 different sets of armour. One blue, one black, and the other silver. Its not like I've changed which army I served, I've always served the crystal empire. If I was asked what my life was like at that time, it would defy every expectation of the sugar coated brutal past this empire has.
