Twilight's life takes on a different tint when she fails to pass her entrance exam for Celestia's School. As it turns out, there are other ways to serve her princess and country.
10334218 Listen I was hooked the moment Twilight melted the rings and almost squashed Trixie with a rock the only way you could stop me from reading is pulling a 7saviours and have everything just keep getting worse and gruesome to the point where the only solution is to blow up the sun
The nurse said something else, probably another warning, but Twilight’s attention was already gone. It’d been a strained thing over the last three days as she endured test after test, even though she didn’t feel bad at all. Each morning bad been better than the last until she no longer felt the need to play nice with the hospital.
Shoulda just given the book to Sol Shard at the hospital, now some kind of eldritch horror is going to devour her consciousness.... or offer to help her to avenge themselves on the Necromancer for this 'broken pact'.
Also I do realize that I'm assuming it's Twilight's stubbornness that got her into this mess, but the book itself or the one behind it could have been influencing her the entire time.
Also don't worry about people not wanting to read, I'm hanging off every word.
Strauss scoffed. “Then you are deficient. You have enough anti-warding built into you to ignore Princess Celestia’s magic, if only until she tires of playing and burns you out like a cinder.” The unicorn’s eyes narrowed. “Did you forget, or do you need me to experiment and see why my runes are not functioning correctly? Release them, at once, and I will deal with your failure later.”
You can tell a lot about someone by how they treat their servants/slaves/minions. And you can tell a lot about an organization by the people that it employs.
Though, for a book... leather-bound books were the things of evil wizards or necromancers in stories.
Or griffons and minotaurs, evidently.
Twilight’s mouth went dry. She flipped a page. Then another. Then another. Then she flipped a chunk of pages all at once, scanning each one as they flew by. There was only text. Walls and walls of text, written in the same gibberish. From front to cover.
What, you thought any mage worth his salt would write his formulae in plan equish? You were just musing on the obsessive secrecy of magi...
And thus we learn why you don't just burn stuff. And Twilight gets jumped by a quasit of all things. How embarrassing.
I wonder what the doctor said that Twilight missed hearing -- it's always the small things that come back to break your neck.
WELL THEN. That is a deadly cliffhanger. According to that wiki article, odds are the Quasit communicate with a demon lord, so assuming that, then will Twilight make it out of there without forming a pact with it? Spooky times ahead
I'm going to guessssss Pazuzu because bird feet. Either that, or the horse in the window -- I was getting serious demon lord evil vibes from that.
fond of corrupting mortals, especially the innocent and honest. He enjoyed offering aid that at first appeared beneficial, but which ultimately spelled doom on the victim in the long run
Well now I'm even more concerned since you basically all but confirmed my horrible spoiler text from before. Twolot is HECKED. Even if I guessed wrong, all of the demon lords are bad news for her Inb4 magical mcguffin fixes demon lord problem in a future critical climax moment 💥🌈✨
Cliffhangers are gonna be the death of me
Uh oh scary.

"Uh Oh" should really be the tagline of Twilight's life in this AU.
10334171
I gotta keep people reading somehow. >_>
This version of Twilight has obviously never played Hackmaster.
Otherwise, she'd KNOW
"Spell books are always cursed"
How has she LIVED this long?

Oh Buck, would have liked some more info surrounding Twilight's injuries and possible permanent scarring but otherwise very intrigued.
Somethings should just not be.

You've gotten a lot of the easter eggs I've written into the story, but I'm happy I finally snuck one past you with Strauss and the Gargoyle.
