Your timeline seems a bit strange here. Twilight's a princess and the girls still have the Elements, so that means this takes place between the end of season three and the start of season four. That's a minimum of one year, you say it's two in this chapter. That seems like an awfully long time for Celestia and Luna to remain estranged, and it's odd that Luna would only try to enter Celestia's dreams a total of four times over that long a period of time.
Also while the aloof "I must be perfect" Celestia fits well enough with her season one portrayal, by later seasons we've seen her loosen up. So the idea that two years in she still has the perfection complex seems forced.
It's also odd that she can't recall the names of the Element Bearers given that they've saved her bacon three times now. Plus her prize student won't shut up about them. I'd think the repetition alone would make their names stick.
Finally what about Discord? Post-reform, pre-Tirek Discord might well not give a flying fig about the fate of Equestria but he definitely cares about the fate of Fluttershy. So where is he?
Wow. The dissolving scene was AWESOME. Gads, I wish I had time to animate that.

To deliver a concise answer to your queries: This fic is not, and never was, intended to merge seamlessly with the established canon. The reason for this is two-fold:
Firstly, the project is enough of a logistical undertaking as it is, attempting to cover over a thousand years in a semi-coherent fashion. I felt that to add further characters and "recent-times crises" to the mix would diminish it. It would distract from the heart of the story - Celestia's, and now Luna's personal struggles. I feel very comfortable dismissing Discord, Chrysalis and the like as being simply not part of this endeavor.
Secondly, from a more sentimental perspective, I can say with certainty that this fic has from the first moment diverged wildly from my own interpretation of canon. It may or may not come as a surprise that I consider myself to be an optimist, and an admirer of MLP's pastel-colored innocence. I have neither the desire nor the intent to achieve a perfect union between that world and my own, grimmer stories.
Such are my opinions, take them as you will.
Noooo, Tia is dead... or not?
I hate cliffhangers!
Am curious to see where this goes. The chapter title and ending suggest this isn't the end for her, so...what next? I am eager to see.

This chapter was amazing. The last chapter was amazing. I'm loving this story, the progression, the details, every single bit. Keep doing exactly what you're doing.
The only thing I don't like is the fact it has to end sometime. I already fear that day.
That's one heckavu line!
