Not too long after the Equestrian Pride lifted off, Sombra's grasp on the Crystal Ponies faded, leaving them to guide themselves in a world that had been laid waste by the years of war.

(A sidestory to Spacebound Equestria)

Cancelled due to ineptitude, possibly (but not likely) to be revised later on.

Sombra wasn't always an overlord: he used to be a normal pony, like you and me. Well: if you could call the most high-ranked Guardian Mage in the Crystal Empire, who had also caught the eye of the Emperor's daughter normal, that is.

You want me to tell the sad tale of the Tyrant, little foal?
Very well, but be warned...

Some of the worst evils on the world were done with the best intentions.

A short segment of my first take on the History of Equestria. (Yes, I have two complex Equine timeline headcanons. I'm weird that way.)

Main Storyline: When Dark Stone witnesses the Empire slowly turn against a tribe they helped create, he wonders if he should stand by as innocent ponies are brutally murdered.

Secondary Storyline: Starlight volunteers to read an old story to a particular filly, after Twilight failed to make good on her promise. She fights against her haunting past, as the filly slowly reminds her of the life that was taken from her, and the life she lost.

King Sombra has returned and twilight must go in the past and figure out why he became who he is. Though things are a little different and twilight changes history... but is for the better.

Also please respect the original writer of the cover I did not ask them to make this I just found it

(Sorry guys, but I'm on duty for two weeks this story will return IN TWO WEEKS OR LESS)
After being blasted out of the Crystal Empire, King Sombra awakes to find himself in his original state of mind before the incident. What made him so evil? The loss of a loved one. It drove him insane. He is now on an epic journey to find said loved one, but he doesn't remember who she is/was and if she remembers/forgives him for what happened. He fears the only way to find out is to get to the crystal heart, but he is banished. How will he ever accomplish this?

Cast out of his life by a mysterious entity while searching for the last couple items for an outfit for a special event, Artemis strives to have a say in his own life. Free from any controlling forces, he lashes out at anything he believes to be a true threat as he builds up his own standing, to finish his plan and achieve his life-long goal. To wander the lands, free of any corruption, with the world aiming right at his head, walking straight through danger without a care perfect for all types of madmen, demons, and crazed philosophers.

King Sombra's forces forces occupy every inch of the Crystal Empire. They say it is not long until his rule becomes absolute. I say different. The Empire will be free, not the property of a demigod. The war ends here, not in battle, nor in surrender. It is said that the deaths of a few, select individuals might change the course of the future. I am counting on it.

This story is a sequel to Windigo Storm

This story is part of the Crystal Note AU that starts with Crystal Note - Welcome to Sweet Apple Acres!.
It is not necessary to read any of the previous stories, but there will be referrals to ponies and events from them.

Crystal Note is the only crystal unicorn in all of Equestria. Therefore, she is the only crystal pony with access to unicorn magic, the same magic that was once used to put a terrible curse on her home, the Crystal Empire far up north.

After spending years of travelling all over Equestria as a musician and singer, Crystal Note moved back to her home. She has come to peace with the events of her past, good and bad, and is now ready to be a part of the Crystal Empire again.

However, tragic events keep happening even in times of peace. Suddenly, Crystal Note finds herself in a unique position to help and with eager desire to do so. She will do everything she can to give back the kindness and trust once given to her and help three fillies in their time of dire need.
This is the story of Crystal Note and family.

This story takes place a couple of years after the events of Windigo Storm. While it is not necessary to read that story or any of the Crystal Note AU, there wil be referrals to events and ponies from the past.
Some of those events have not been written or published yet, please excuse if that happens.

This story contains multiple story archs that are connected and intertwined. Therefore, instead of putting each of those archs into an individual story, I will publish all of them in this story and further updates.
Not all of the story archs are finished yet, I will mark those for you. Since many of the stories are intertwined, the timeline might jump a little between stories and the order of chapters will change with further updates.

Please read this blog for some other reasons.

While it is recommended to read the two first story archs, all further story archs can be read on their own, so feel free to skip anything that doesn't peak your interest.
Since the story archs were planned as individual stories, there will be some exposition and referrals in each of them to other stories and chapters of this one. Please excuse when this happens.

Please feel free to comment, ask questions or add suggestions as much as you like. Please feel free to give ideas for further stories or chapters you'd like to see. Feel free to use this or any part of the Crystal Note AU for your own ideas and stories.

When the Crystal heart was shattered, the empire and everyone within were put in great danger. But for two ponies, the stakes were even higher. This is their story.

Equestria has changed, magic is now a distant memory. The tribes have split apart. Twilight's rule has long since failed. The Dark age is here.

Yet there is still another. Come, see the journey, where it began. For yet, hope remains while the love and friendship remains true. Hope is coming.

Flurry Heart's tale is not yet finished.

The war with Sombra is finally done. The ponies have won.

The combatants are invited to a big party. It's basically just a distraction from the heartache the war left. Of course, Pinkie Pie, Maud Pie, and Rainbow Dash all go to it. After all, the three of them are three fast friends who really helped the ponies destroy Sombra.

Both Pinkie Pie and Rainbow are now in relationships. Pinkie Pie even has two daughters.

At the party ponies suddenly start to share war stories and then Maud Pie shares one of her own stories.
