Four hundred years ago, ponies arrived in a deserted sector of space. There they found much alien technology, and with it separated from Celestias rule. Free to shape their own futures, five factions came to power, all hoping to claim control of the sector in the name of Faith, Throne or fortune. This is each factions story.

This is the history and culture, as well as government and military of each of the five Koprulu Pony factions. The main story is called the Koprulu Sector and can be found at the link provided.

Luna decides to write a letter to her teacher about what she has learned.

15/2/13 - I'm afraid this story has been cancelled, because I only ever intended it to be a chapter long, anyway. I have taken the second chapter down. Sorry!

They say that virtue is it's own reward, that it's good to help others out without expecting anything in return.

I can safely say that is officially bull crap. Now every week, I've got to deal with more of these unicorns coming in and making my life a sugar coated wreck.

(Written as an exercise to reinvigorate my writing juices for my other story, but I hope you enjoy.)

River Swirl, a young schoolteacher from Rijekograd, dreams of bringing prosperity and modernity to the River Republic. As a newcomer to the Harmonic Party, her political career begins with lessons - Pushing her boundaries, dealing with failure, and learning what being a democrat really means.

This takes place in the Equestria at War universe, before the game’s timeline. Minor creative liberties may be taken in telling the (unofficial) story of Best Pony.

The earth was torn asunder. The seas dried into nothing as a blood-red eclipse embraced the land. Families were torn apart, friendship became a thing of the past, and ponies never knew happiness again. Crystal obelisks burst from the ground, serving as an homage to the beings who rose to power that day.

Ever since, the world has been withering away.

Years later, the Elements of Harmony return to the mortal realm. But if they ever come into contact with the Spires of Harmony, the fate of Equestria will be sealed for good.

Time is running out.

Decisions have to be made.

Of those decisions, being stuck in stone again suddenly isn't the worst one for Cozy Glow.

Two hundred years before the reunification of the three pony tribes, it was a curse to be born an Earth Pony. The Unicorn nobility ruthlessly taxes and subjugate them, while Pegasus marauders mercilessly raid towns and villages under the 'protection' of Pegasopolis. However, when a mysterious creature wielding ungodly powers saves a village from a Pegasus raid, the Earth Ponies finally see a way to break free of the vicious cycle and earn their freedom and equality.

Else where, a young man finds himself cast into a foreign world after an encounter with the spirit of chaos, armed with nothing but his newly bought handgun along with two magazines' worth of ammunition. However, he realized that the world he found himself in is far more complicated than he could ever imagine and that he must act to help the oppressed or forever live with a guilty conscience.

An experimental story trying to train my pacing a little, and hoping to create a HiE story with a more meaningful theme than just 'Find Mane 6 and live in Ponyville'. Big thanks to Garzeel_ for prereading! Hope you guys enjoy it!

Warning: contains a fair amount of swearing.

When the Princess refused Sunset Shimmer the reward which was her right as a pony of talent and excellence, Sunset was determined. She would prove her mentor wrong, she would prove her worth, prove her worth as a pony and as a princess in her own right. The Mirror offered promises. It promised Sunset many things.

The Mirror lied.

The land that laid beyond the Mirror was barbaric beyond all her worst expectations. Ape-like beings strode through this world, arrogant, violent, vicious beyond anything in Sunset's experience. Slavers, savages, brutes, carnivores.

They put her in chains like cattle, and told her she was livestock. Then the brutes tried to give her as a gift to those whom even brutes feared, to the eastern savages. To a people who said there were only two things in this world: those that ride, and those that are ridden.

And so if she has any hope of ever proving herself worthy of being a person again, Sunset Shimmer would have to show that she could be one who rides - that she is...

Dothraki.

When you're waking up without your gear in strange wildlands; the last thing you'd want to do is panic.

So what do you do instead? You get to your damn feet and start looking for a way back to civilization.

Rated Teen for some harsh language.

Rainbow Dash has fallen in love with a new kind of sport: Bare-hoof brawling. It's a dangerous sport; one that requires a lot of guts, but she's totally up for it. There's only one place in Equestria that has violent sports like that, and that place is Glitzville, a small, flying town with an action packed fighting ring called The Glitz Pit. When Rainbow arrives and shockingly sees who the champion of The Glitz Pit is, she promises herself that she would become number one no matter the cost! However, as she continues to fight, the more she realizes that she had gotten herself into a little more than she was offered.
