Tempest has been living happily with Glitter Drops in the Crystal Empire for five years. Ponies have forgiven her for her previous mistakes, and she's forgiven herself. But a part of her still can't seem to let go of her past.

She doesn't know how much longer she can combat it alone but doesn't know if she would risk her friends' happiness by telling them about her trouble.

She also doesn't know what it really is that's bothering her.

=============

Again, inspiration was drawn from my music, "Conviction," and again, by PrinceWhateverer - what can I say? I really like that guy.

Narcotics and Self-harm tags for future chapters. Self-harm isn't exactly 'self-harm', more like something that could have the potential to harm her (and others). Just in case.

the year is 1011 ALB and war has broken out between the two major superpowers of the continent of Equus . Equestria and the Changeling lands. we follow two soldiers on opposite sides of the conflict and fighting for two different reasons. an Earth pony named Buck who is fighting in the Equestrian military because of the death of his parents and Mandell, a changeling who is part of the first panzer division that assaults the Ancornage line. the two characters will meet in these opening bouts of the greatest war to grace the planet and their actions will change the course of each other's lives...

This story is based on the Hoi4 mod Equestria at War and it helps to know the source material. however it is not necessary in order to enjoy the story

one last thing for people reading this. this is first and foremost a ship between two OC´s and a war story second. so if you're expecting an emphasis on combat and the grand battle plan sry :/

Two ponies, finding themselves inside a dark tunnel, stop moving to heal one from an injury.

[Note]
Suicide / Self Harm tag is not here due to an emotional state of mind. If you feel triggered by this tag, or reading the parts that involved such, please talk to someone about it.

Narcotics tag is here, but the story does not revolve around it, nor does it have significant impact.

Midnight Shadow is a news reporter for the Maretropolis Post who loves his job. However, he get's an assignment about something he is super indifferent about: Superheroes.

When two beings, worshipped as true Gods fight each other, what's left? It's a dangerous world. Even the very light seems to want to kill all those who try to survive.

In the midst of this apocalypse, two beings. One experienced Griffon. One mysterious child who just can't seem to stand down. They'll live. Somehow.

Scootaloo has found herself in a dark place. Rainbow Dash was always away on some trip for the Wonderbolts. Ms. Cheerilee was scolding her more and more about her lowering grades. Her friends were ignoring her. It seemed as though the world was against her. She was alone. How to solve this issue? Get mean, get bad, feel sad.

For the most part, Fleur de Lis cannot complain about her life. She was part of the Canterlot Elite circle, she had enormous amounts of wealth, and an attractive husband.

“We remember the day the astral plane called. The day we learned Luna never truly ruled the stars...”

That message echoed throughout the minds of all. Regardless of species, birth, gender, and any other denominator. It was the day the over 1000 years of the ALB era ended, and the era of First Contact (FC) began. And it began with the world and society as a whole fracturing into 7 distinct ideologies.

This fic is based upon the somewhat niche RTS Grand Strategy game, Terra Invicta. And how the arrival of the outsiders to the Faust System influences not only the world of MLP (Gaia), but also specifically, the supposed princess of all the stars, Luna.

Includes a poll at the end of the prologue, in the authors note, to decide what path/ideology and ultimately, what story route shall be taken first in the story. If this does well, expect one at the end of every route.
