On a field trip to the Manehatten Museum of Ancient History, Cheerilee's class receives an extra treat: an IMAX movie. While the rest of the class is overwhelmed with excitement, one little colt would rather sneak off for his own museum excursion. An excursion that lands him lost and alone before a strange mare comes to his rescue.

They say you never meet your heroes. But heroes come in all kinds of shapes and forms. You might just miss one if you're not careful.

Thousands of years after the Great Sundering, many races that were, had been banished from the world by a Goddess. Now the Wonderious Kingdom of Alicornia rules, peace and tranquilty everywhere, and no possibly way for any evils to tear it down.

But deep in a frozen cave, lay the last Human, who has now been found by a gray creature and taken in to become, the newest Overlord!

Because Evil Always Finds A Way.

(Note: If you are familiar with another story by the name of "Evil Always Finds a Way", I am telling you that my story was released many months before that one. The author of that one just didn't realized his title name was already taken. Both stories are only similar by name, nothing else.)

(Featured 11/5/2014! Yay! 2nd Story of Mine ever featured)

Centuries ago, pony-kind warred and squabbled against one another over land, food, power, and even ideology. However, those years of strife came to an end when one creature from beyond the vale stepped out before them and laid law into the war torn land. It was then that the creature that stood against all pony-kind united all races and brought to them a new empire. An empire where pony-kind, gryphon-kind, dragon-kind, and all-kinds could live as one under a creature that was alone in this world.

This was the Crystal Empire... And she was Megan.

This story is a sequel to The Age of Iron.

When the world was young... When Equestria was nothing but an idea... When control by another more powerful than the other reigned... Within that strain was the honing of magic... And of magi. The Unicorns most base and elevated gift upon the world: Unity.

One-shot POV.

Twilight's castle has gone through many wild and life altering changes over the years. What once was a simple library was now the seat of a princess and her council. Not only that, over the years it's played host to so many new and interesting people; each one memorable in their own way.

Which makes it all the stranger that there's this pony tending to the books lately that nobody seems to know... But she seems so familiar!

This story is a sequel to Forever This Second

Prodding from peers and her highest instructor led Twilight Sparkle to release all the magic she had stolen. What it would do was beyond her, a simple human facing down what was not of her own world. Her research in these matters ran deep; but theory was brought to reality in that one moment.

It was discourse that brought her there, and discourse that filled her mind for the first time.

After her role in the Helping Hooves Music Festival, Rara "Coloratura" heads backstage to take a moment. In just one day, so many things happened to her. All of them life changing. She fired her manager, she changed her image and musical style, and she reconnected with her oldest friend. All of it being incredibly overwhelming.

The last time she felt so overwhelmed was...

A thank you to my pre-readers Tatsurou and Merc the Jerk.

Divided between two worlds for thirty moons, left alone with their individual thoughts, Twilight Sparkle and Sunset Shimmer meet again. However, Twilight brings Sunset an option that she had thought long and hard on. A single choice that would alter both of their beings for all eternity if accepted. A grand yet humbling gift left only to the other to decided.

Art beautifully done by Xaztein.

Spoilers for the ending of "Friendship Games".

Facing down a girl twisted by magic and her own ambition sparked Sunset Shimmer to summon the Elements of Harmony. The very same Elements of Harmony that stopped a girl twisted by magic and her own ambition not long ago.

It was harmony that beat her once, and harmony that filled her mind yet again.

So, you want to hear my story, eh? The honest-to-goodness truth of how I become what I am today? You want to hear of the events, that changed not only my, but many other lives? I warn you now, it is not a pretty story. It is filled with bloodshed, with anger and with pain. It is a story of violence and death, of overcoming obstacles that nopony should ever encounter. But it also is a story of good, a story of hope. For even in the shadows of an evil older than the Royal Princesses themselves, even in a world that does not know harmony there is still hope. It guides you when you’re lost, comforts you when you’re scared, it is a light in the dark of night and a cool shadow in a sun-burned desert.

You’re still here? Then you must really want to know, do you? Very well, let me begin.

My name is Spike, and this is the story of how I and my friends were plunged to an adventure on a world not our own.

Author's note:

Story written in Spike’s POV. Humanized (eventually) cast. A crossover with Pathfinder’s Rise of the Runelords adventure path. While based for the most part on the actual path, it will contain original personal storylines and it will explore the concept of a pony (herbivore) becoming a human(oid) (omnivore) and the possibilities/downsides it contains.

WARNING, story contains:

-Humanized ponies
-Mild to heavy violence and gore
-Philosophical questions (who we really are; dose eating other creatures counts as evil; is there such a thing as knowledge forbidden; is Pinkie Pie really insane)
-Pinkie Pie with a multiple personality disorder (might go slight cupcakes, but nothing serious, so don’t worry about RD… yet)
-Semi-competent to fully competent Spike
-Grammar errors (English is not my native tongue)
-A seriously messed up author
