Strange things are starting to happen around Ponyville and Spike is taking notice. Is it a new threat to Equestria or something else? Whatever it is, it seems to affecting those closest to Spike, including the Element bearers. Can he figure out what's going on before it's too late?

*With anthro ponies that are closer to human than pony. Also, not necessarily based on show canon. I'll probably add tags as they appear in the story.

Long ago, a cult of ancient ponies have been thought to have been wiped completely from the face of Equestria after a righteous last stand against the Griffon Kingdom. It was a battle of power over greed, one which the remnants of the Xave Cult made a heroic attempt in preserving for the greater good of pony kind.

Who are the Xave Cult? They are the last remaining members of an ancient tribe that were almost mislead by a mysterious power that came from an ancient artifact belonging to an even more ancient dragon king of the name Xanvire, their very pinnacle of worship and source of power.

Their cult was created by six of the now last standing members and founders whom have resided to the Bad Lands, far from the inherited lands of the populace.

With their last quest of preserving the power of the artifact and ensuring its preservation from the hands of the evil forces of the land, the remnants are tasked with finding new protectors for the cherished and mysterious power source that could, one day, vacate all evil and restore peace and harmony for once and for all.

This is their last journey.

A blue unicorn from Sire's Hollow named Astrospark goes on a long and dangerous journey to discover the strange lands beyond Equestria to find a mysterious Alicorn Princess while trying to learn how to be brave.

2018 Update: Yes, I am still working on the continuation of this story.

Personally rated "Young Adult"--no explicitness, but any and all triggers short of it are on the table. I personally recommend reading this story in the Serif font.

Three worldly mares--self-identifying as the BGs (Backgrounders)--bring fun and a semblance of meaning to their oddly dysfunctional lives by carousing, canoodling, and capitalizing on chances to help the world that rejected them. However, the three share one other bizarre commonality--and once it is discovered, a more intense and insane journey begins. Life won't be the same--nor was it ever. A mystery-genre emotional roller coaster inspired by, and in tribute to, SS&E's Background Pony. Also contains significant Bee Gees and maybe other song references, if you're into that sort of thing.

This is my first ever written work of fiction. Cover art by Tricky Dick.

All know the legends of The Heroes who wielded the sword of evil's bane and defended Hyrule, The Princess and the Triforce from the forces of evil. No matter how powerful the foe or grim the situation, a boy in a green tunic would always arise and vanquish the darkness against all odds, saving Hyrule's inhabitants. But while the eternal cycle of rebirth ran its course in the land of Hylians, Zora, Gorons, Gerudo and Rito, across the vast Necludan Sea another land would be constantly beset by dark forces, only to overcome them with the power of the ancient Alicorn Tribe and the Six Champions. Though Equestria's history is just as tumultuous as that of their overseas neighbour, for thousands of years the kingdom of Ponies, Changelings, Yaks, Gryffons and Dragons not only survived, but also thrived thanks to the Magic of Friendship. However, as Hyrule experiences an era of respite from the threat of enslavement or annihilation, an all too familiar evil from the past begins to wake in the lands of harmony, it's insatiable thirst for power posing a danger not even the five Alicorn Princesses or the Element Bearers of Harmony could stop. Yet hope is not lost, as, unknown to all, the latest reincarnation of Hylia's Chosen Champion lives together with the Princess of Friendship, under his first ever form different than that of a Hylian. Will the Dragon Hero be able to vanquish one of this world's oldest evils, or will Equestria fall to the first vessel of Demise's vengeance?

Some things:
1. I swear I had not heard of Hero of Harmony before writing the first chapter. Any similarities between that story and future chapters will be purely coincidental.
2. This takes place in the Downfall Timeline, after A Link Between Worlds but before the timelines remerge, as well as replacing FiM's Season 7 Finale. The mess that happened with all of the villains a thousand years before the show would take place around the same time as the events of either A Link To The Past or the original two Zelda games because it makes some sense for all the bad guys to enact their nefarious schemes if Ganon is around and mostly winning, and A New Generation will take place at the same time as BOTW because why not?
3. Tagging this story is way more difficult than I thought, so the Tags can and probably will change as I figure out what the heck I want this story to be.

Anyway, feel free to criticize, correct grammar and enjoy.

After years spent as a statue in the garden of Princess Twilight Sparkle, Cozy Glow is rescued by a mysterious unicorn calling herself Sunset Shimmer, who intended to take her back to the mirror realm for rehabilitation. But something went wrong with the portal and they instead ended up in the realm of Everglow. A realm much like Equestria, but where ponykind has still to unite under one banner.

Making their home in the Unicorn Kingdom of Taralos, Sunset meets and befriends the griffin Silverwing while Cozy makes a friend in the royal court, the mysterious intelligence operative Cipher who, like Cozy, hides a dark secret.

When the horn of the son of the reigning monarch is stolen before his coronation, Cozy vows to find it in order to increase her standing with the royal family. The first step of her plan to one day take over as the reigning monarch, to rule Taralos as the Empress of Friendship. Will Cozy succeed in her ambitions? Or will Sunset's influence be enough to make her become the hero Taralos needs?

Inspired by the To Found an Empire Ponyfinder adventure path by David Silver for Pathfinder.

Sun and her friends are visiting the Daring Do Movie set, and are excited. But then strange things begin to happen, and three important props of the moves are gone. The movie might not be able to go on, but Sun and the girls are on the case to find the relics and the one responsible.

Every story focuses on the hero and some focus on the villain, but few focus on the one who plays the long game, the one who take moons to play a single piece in the Grand game of chess. The scales are always balanced; you don't often see why.

in this story, the character Eclipse a historian/scientist with seemingly no moral compass and no idea just how strong she has become writes a letter to twilight describing the history that has been lost by the ages and why she is contacting her, reviling just enuff to gain her trust without starting a war, probably.

In addition, she also wrights several chapters that are never seen by Twilight but are kept secret but describe how a lack of morals and a burning passion for learning developed the current timeline.
