Nova Arc


Discovering colored cartoon ponies was one of the best times of my life... how many people get to say that? XD

T

A new year has begun at Chantalot Academy for Gifted Mages and Sunset Shimmer is looking forward to it; seeing her friends, making new ones, and just trying to get through the problems that come with high school. But when a school myth begins to resurface as more than just a legend, Sunset refuses to sit on the sidelines. Luckily, she won't be alone.

A reboot of the Mages of Etheria series. Tags will be added as the series progresses.

Note: Despite the Mane 6 Tag, they will only play a roll as supporting characters.

Chapters (11)

First like.

7143455:yay: Thanks. Hope you enjoy it.:twilightsmile:

7143526 It's gonna start smooth, then... well, we've all at least seen a roller coaster, haven't we?:pinkiecrazy:

I like how you replaced all the horse jokes with wizard jokes. I am eager to see where this is going.
EDIT: Discovering this is a reboot, do I have to read the canceled series to know what's going on?
EDIT2 (Posting before I finished reading might not have been a good idea.): Zecora's original rhyme structure in nature studies should have been fauna and flora not flora and fauna. It would work better too since as that is not the normal order of saying it the whole rhyming theme would be better established in the reader's mind.

7144682 Glad it caught you're attention.:twilightsmile: It's not a requirement to read the previous version. Most of the characters and storyline have changed, so reading it is of your own free will.

Noted. I'll swap it then. Thanks.:twilightsmile:

7152293 Glad you like it.:twilightsmile:

I eagerly await the arival of the tituliar namesake of this story...

7164631 Don't you worry. You'll see them.:raritywink: Oh, and thanks for the follow.:twilightsmile:

7164645 You're welcome, and I shall be chomping at the bit in anticipation for what you have in store....:trollestia:

7164663 I will try not to disappoint.:twilightsmile:

7164669 Yet again, my triple entendres fall flat... I mourn it's loss...:ajsleepy:

7164675 We all have those lows. Maybe the next one will fly.:raritywink:

7164685 Well, now I'm too distracted to be clever; started Past Sins just now, and the prologue is well written... I look forward to seeing how it turns out!:twilightsmile:

almost than

"more than" or "almost"
Also while Mare-do-well was already a pretty bad pun at least it made sense. Mage-do-well just sounds weird,

7227397 Thanks. I'll fix that. I couldn't come up with a better mage pun for that to go with "do-well".:twilightsheepish: Still working on it.

By the gods, your OCs are horrible.

7246812 There's worse OCs here, but I see what you mean.

7246812
7246904 What did I do wrong this time?

7248508
I don't really see anything wrong with this, aside from a few OC names... Send me a list and picture of all your OC's and their names and I'll help you out.

P.S. A better way of looking at this situation is that there are 9 more people who like this than hate this. Here, lemme make it 10

7248705 All their pony forms and basic history is on my userpage. I really don't get the issue with the names. Anyone who asked me about them never complained.

Thanks. That really helps.:pinkiesad2:

7248714
The meet and greet section?

7248734
Yeah... I figured. I don't see anything wrong with them.

7248770 But apparently, two people did enough to downvote the story. It doesn't bother me though. I don't think they followed the story from the start.

Hmm..... So Loli is basically a not-as-smart, not-as-cautious, funnier, female Shikamaru Nara?

Also, I feel you should have at least given Trixie more credit on her skills. This may be a bit of a biased thought, considering I absolutely adore Trixie, but every story I read about her makes her seem weak...

7254496 Well, I agree on the not-as-cautious bit, but she's pretty smart. But yeah, you got the idea.:rainbowlaugh:

In my opinion, Trixie would be a really good fighter... if she stops paying attention to her voice and ego and more on the speedster who tosses shadows around like trained puppies.:trixieshiftright: But don't worry. She'll get her chance to shine soon enough.

7248934 I'll admit.... The Oc's are a bit op. It wouldn't hurt to not make them all mary sues after all. I mean, really? They're just easily beating every canon character and one was able to easily match Dash in speed.... I like the story and all- god I love stories like this, but I'm just sayin' is all.

7254768 They won't. Trixie and BB are strong, but too arrogant, IMO. As for Loli, she can't. She's fast, but not as fast as Dash. She can stay right behind and she's got good bursts, but she can't maintain Dash's speed for as long, let alone beat her in a race. And BB is more or less blinded by rage in his fight. That plus Dawn's affinity put him at an advantage (also, I mentioned BB isn't that great a mage or warrior). But don't worry. I've had OPOC problems in the past and I intend to avoid them here. I only ask for you to be a bit patient with me.:twilightsmile:

Also, thanks for the fave. I really hope you like it.:twilightsmile:

7254781 Alright, that makes sense then! ^^ Also, who cares about how good Blueblood is~ xD I was mostly just referring to Trixie and Lyra. Mainly Lyra though, as she didn't even get a scene. :fluttercry: She just got beat up.

You're welcome! It's a great story, ya know. x3

Luna : What evil thing did you do?

Blue blood: what are the exact measurements of your "royal blade"?

Loli: if your candy is so important to you why did you bet it?

Phantom: are you going to steal someone's heart?

Sunset: does your hair taste like bacon?

Dusk: don't you think your shields are a little… small?

7333761
What the- LOLI!

Hm? What is i- Oh... hehe. I knew that dragonfruit stash would come in handy.

Why the heck do you have a dragon fruit stash?

Why are you not eating yet?

Because it doesn't count! You can't win because one person saw this as decided to ask five random questions.

But you said-

Five questions. Anyone can read a story and come up with five questions. Nice try, Undeadnut.:ajsmug:

7333833
From one person.

It's still six questions!

It's a cheap move!

That's not cheap, that's smart!

7333844

I actually agree with Loli on this one.

Do. It. You. Coward.

7333893
I am NOT a coward! I'm also not gullible! I ALSO know that you all just want to see me suffer... for whatever reason.

Sunny, just accept defeat!

You know what? No! Let's take this to the judges!

Huh?

*facepalm* Let's get Nova to write a blog and some group posts and get other people's opinions.

Oh... I'm cool with that... because you're still going to eat that fruit!

In your dreams!

7333913

Can I at least get the answers to my questions?

7333915
On Monday. Just to be sure everyone get's their question in.

Also, they're not all going to be easy to get answers from.

7333917

k thanks.

EAT YOUR DAMN DRAGONFRUIT!

Why was this added to the RWBY Fan Club group?

7545082 It's inspiration was RWBY. Many of it's themes and ideas were... improvised from it. I'd be happy to explain, if necessary.

7572269 Yup. She's one of those teachers. The Snapes.

Interesting. But it says " was in the lead" I am assuming Twilight but there is only a blank. As for the universe, I'm confused as to where it starts. Is this the first year for the main six/seven at this magic school? Did they come from "Canterlot High" and if so was there no Principal Celestia!? I saw mention of the sirens and of Sunset's past. Is Equestria a thing? Was Princess Twilight's crown stolen? How was Sunset defeated? Don't get me wrong, I am by no means complaining or hating. I'm rather interested in this mix of RWBY, EQG, and Smilingdogz. I'm just the kind of guy that likes knowing stuff.

7578414 The events of EQG and FiM are intertwined and took place at the same time in the same universe. This is more or less the the equivalent of their 2nd year of high school (Sophomore). Instead of Sunset coming from another dimension, she just returned from her journey around Etheria (Equestria) in search of power. Princess Celestia doubles as the principal and CMA is Canterlot high in this universe. Here, Etheria is Equestria. Yes, Twi's crown was stolen and Sunset was defeated in the same way: the EoH Rainbow Power (since at this time, the gems were used to unlock the chest granting them Rainbow Forms).

It's fine. I'm glad to see you interested in the lore.:twilightsmile: Also glad to see you caught Smilingdogz refs. Good eye.:moustache:

And thanks for the follow.:twilightsmile:
