This story is a sequel to The Young Warrior: Ocellus's Path

Apex has never had to deal with this sort of emotion before - and that's saying something, since he's the son of what his Uncle (affectionately) calls "the Emotion King". But lately, when he's around his closest friend Zenith, he's been stricken by feelings he doesn't understand. He wants to tell the nymph how he feels, but doesn't want to lose him as a friend. When Zenith ends up in an accident that has him doubting in the guidance of their ancestors, Apex worries about when the exact right time may be... or if one even exists.

Once again, Zephyr Breeze is feeling lost. The breeze is calling him towards a new destiny, a new purpose! If only he knew what that was supposed to be… 

After a chance encounter with the only changeling student at the School of Friendship, he decides to try and find himself at the changeling hive under Thorax’s guidance. 

There, a new danger roaming around the hive has him setting off on a new quest to try his hoof as a Monster Hunter… With Thorax’s grumpy older brother Pharynx. 

Even in these trying circumstances, these two may be able to find an unlikely friendship. And maybe, that friendship could even turn into an even more unlikely love.

Unpopular opinion: Queen Chrysalis was the single greatest changeling to ever be among the Hive. She was the Queen, the Mistress of Survival, a Goddess of Subterfuge, all till one faithful grub named Thorax spoke up.

Then everything came crashing down on his back.

But as a result of loose Equestrian Magic, Queen Chrysalis, ruthless leader of the Changelings, has obtained a special advantage.

When facing off against a shapeshifting army from outer space, their struggles will take them to distant places they could have never imagined. What exactly are the Changelings and their queen hoping to achieve? Can the Equestria Girls succeed against their greatest foe yet, or will they have finally met their match?

This story is a sequel to The Young Warrior: Fortuna's Promise

Ocellus never wanted to be a Warrior's Apprentice. Fighting was never her favorite, and it seemed she couldn't grasp the lessons her mentor tried to teach her. Luckily, she has managed to be reassigned as a Medic Apprentice, and will now be learning under Cilia-medica. Though the life of a medic is not without it's own trials. Ocellus can only hope she'll be able to find it within herself to fulfill her role if and when the time comes. After all, what good is a medic who's too scared to take action when it's needed?

Pharynx has always been a bastard. He never really had a choice.

The year was 1009 ALB. A great trial awaits the once placid land of Equestria.

Following the secession of Stalliongrad in 995 ALB, the equine principality has reached its breaking point. The Marksist movement has gained hoofholds along the Eastern Seaboard, and its adherents have never been so prevalent among the working ponies. The scent of revolution hung in the air, ripe and ready, and perhaps the permanent revolution might come to Equestria sooner than one might think.

To the South, the chronic string of failures of the central government to address the racial inequality has all but fuelled the flame of dissent. Reforms may be stopped dead in its track within the parliament, but the hardy spirit of Earth ponies shall never be so easily snuffed! And words alone won’t soothe their growing ire. Actions are ahoof. The ponies have spoken!

To the North, Chrysalis could taste iron in the air. Militarized to the last ling, the Changeling Realm has long waited for a right time rewrite the defeat of the past, and the fractured state of Equestria offers a unique opportunity to strike! To erase the humiliation of the Canterlot Wedding and establish a hegemony befitting their food chain status once and for all!

Within the capital, intrigues abound. Treachery lurks in every corner as the nation threatens to tear itself apart. They say that blood is thicker than water, but one ambitious duke might be all it takes to prove otherwise.

Join the Gang of Four as they navigate the no pony’s land that was a nation coming apart at the seams!

Special Thanks to the magnificent developers, writers, artists, and musicians of Equestria at War mod for creating the pièce de résistance of a labour of love!

If there’s one thing Pharynx hasn’t changed along with physical appearance, it’s his desire for holes. After all, it’s not like one bite-sized hole could hurt a living soul in Equestria, right?

Well, things go just as well as you expect when Pharynx decides to test his wall-kicking skills, for the first time since his transformation, and play a practical joke on the changelings during the latest Feelings Forum meeting.

And if getting his foot stuck in the wall wasn’t Pharynx’s newest personal definition of “public humiliation,” things go off from there when Thorax accidentally pulls his brother’s boots off.

Let’s just say a lot can happen within minutes; not just for Pharynx, but his now-trapped soles.

(Warning: Involves Anthro and foot tickling. Nothing explicit, fortunately.)

Blue Fang is in a bad mood, so his girlfriend, Kydra, decides to try and lift his spirits the best way she knows how. With snuggles, nuzzling, belly rubs, booping, and probably more.

There was one person that Thorax, Pharynx and the other changelings barely mentioned. That person was Thorax's and Pharynx's adopted older brother Beta, who was found in the Hive by them several years ago.

One day, Beta left the Hive and was never seen again, because as much as he wanted to stay with Thorax and Pharynx who he grew to love as his own family, he couldn't stay because of Chrysalis.

After Chrysalis was overthrown by Thorax, Starlight Glimmer, Trixie and Discord, Pharynx offered his brother to go out to look for him, but Thorax always declined his offer, even though he'd happily join his brother in his journey to find their brother, saying that he can't because he has to look out after the Hive.

But, one day Beta returns to the Hive, along with three other humans, and a young griffon that happens to be his adopted daughter.

This story starts right at the beginning of season 8.
