Sometimes fate finds you on your journey to avoid it.

For a unicorn pony that couldn't cast a single spell if his life depended on it, Star Swirl wished upon a star that magic would help him get rid of an apparition that taunted him ever since he was born. He would have never believed that several decades later, in the royal palace nevertheless, there would be a library aisle named after him. The record of his journey was read by few and almost forgotten, in the least trotted section of that very same library. And it would have stayed just as dusty and abandoned had it not been for an inquisitive young filly looking for books to read as it was one of those moments when the late hours of the night caught her hoof-deep in her reading instead of being in bed...

Every story has a beginning.
Thrown into a world that he could not even imagine he found himself treated like an animal. While waiting for his fate in the throne room of that worlds rulers, a lone human finds comfort in telling as story to a courses little Phoenix.

This is the story of how the only human in Ponyville, The Storyteller came to be in Equestria.

It starts as an ordinary, warm morning in Ponyville. But soon after all the little ponies get up from their beds something terrible happens: The sun suddenly vanishes from the sky. There are not even the stars or the moon to give light, darkness is a perfect blanket above all Equestria. Our little heroes decide to visit Zecora in hope of getting an explanation for what is happening. But not even the wise zebra knows what brought darkness. And just then, they realize they lost Pinkie.

UPDATE (2016/06/13): Starting soon, I am completely rewriting the story. It is going to be completely changed, and written as a new story. So this one will not be updated and will be deleted by the end of summer.

Celestia coped the loss of her dear sister by having students of her own. They gave Celestia company through the painful years. Her most recent protégé has risen to a whole new level. She couldn't be anymore proud of Twilight Sparkle.

However, she has mixed feelings with this. She misses her diligent pupil even with Luna by her side.

A sudden letter brightens the princess' mood...

((This is a repost and a better version of the story. The other version was posted in my Wattpad. Lastly, this takes place after the events of EQG: Rainbow Rocks))

Fluttershy finds a wounded phoenix. Can she save it?

Luna has had a hard life but things are finally looking up for her. She has a happy life, she has made new friends, and she even has a crush. She finally started to relax. But will she be able to relax for long or will the magic of this world get to her? Or even worse will her past come back to hurt her?

An exploration on why some races like sheep and cows are ruled by ponies. Do they not have divine monarchs looking out for them? One of Princess Celestia's older students and some unlikely companions, are tasked with uncovering the ancient history, and mantaining balance in Equestria.

A mare awakens in a cave, and the world around her is not the same.

Plagued by monsters, with everything she knew and cherished gone or missing, the mare sets out on a journey to find answers, and to undo all the evil that has befallen the world.

A stallion who's dreams of freedom are just that, a mare who's knowledge of freedom are only known in books, and the two sisters who will rest at nothing to give freedom too all.

Luna really has the most beautiful night sky.

The moon going through it's phases like a dancer. The stars shining brightly like the first snowflakes of winter.

However, there is one element of the night that Luna does not control, The shooting stars. The stars upon which so many ponies wish.

The question is where do these stars come from?
How do they know their path?
And most importantly if Luna does not control these stars, who, or what does?
