The lives of Celestia, Luna, Cadance, Shining Armor, Spike, and the Mane Five have gone downhill. They all reflect on the events that led to their situation. The changelings were beaten but the wedding was cancelled. Prince Jewelius, another nephew of Celestia and younger cousin of Cadance, holds all of them responsible for the disaster. He then has the three princesses removed from power and all ten of them exiled from Equestria while he takes the throne for himself. With the fate of Twilight Sparkle unknown, the group of outcasts decide to return to Equestria to find their beloved unicorn friend and earn back their lives. But Jewelius is determined to get rid of them no matter the cost.
good start
....I don't think you need to go any further.
7464617 what do you mean by that?
7464889
I mean, that it was just so cringy to read.
7464918 I just got started, try to be a little patient please.
I'll follow this for now, and make a decision until then.
Good start.
I can't wait to see more.
Really love it so far especially in my opinion they all got off light for the way they treated Twilight
hmmm I have feel the prince is going help ruin wedding and help twilight out and have her fall in love with him just to use her as a pawn.
PLease tell me Twilight isn't just gong to forgive them, that forgiveness mess is over down too many times already.
uh why Cadence and Twilight as well
7471164 what do you mean?
7471565
Sorry misread the description, why Cadence being banished
7471569 That's a huge surprise I'm saving for a later chapter.
Well. It's really starting to look like Chrysalis and her changelings were the lesser of two evils in all this mess.
May his fall be swift and final.
hmmmm I think twilight going to either be lie too or brainwash while she in hospital.
also I think the new king is in fact a changeling from different hive.
Ah. Storyline twist here. An interesting turn of events.
7472034 nice pun. Sans would be proud.
7472625 *bows to her esteemed colleague*
Thank you. I do try.
Well he said he was less liked then his cousin. Seems he was a nice pony but being discarded and thought to be lesser or unloved.
Even Celestia refused to listen to him when eh tried to speak up.
It can build up and turn anyone into a monster.
Protagonist OC's NEVER work in this scenario.
....OOOOOOHHHH. It's a Cross Ange parody.
.....Neat.
hmmmmmm i am worry about twilight, why do i have feeling she is being brainwash right now
I hope they all refuse to work as the false king has told them; that no work gets out from Rarity, Shining Armor, Pinkie, Applejack, and that Rainbow and Flutters refuse to fight in the arena. I know I'd defy and refuse to do what he'd said.
7485501 I was thinking the same thing ... after all, why deprive yourself of such a valuable asset? Also, he was saying sweet things to Twilight early on in the chapter.
7490161 that and i think he may be in love with her, and want to make sure she safe all the time, and is lie to her say that noble were one who banish/exile them away and he try to get them back to win twilight heart.....
either way it good story
7483141 Cross Ange eh? then those who watched the show( or at least read its tv trope page...like i have admitedly
) will probably know where this is going.
Very good so far. Hope to see more soon.
anymore
This is awesome!!!! Please let there be more soon 'cause I have to know what happened to Twi! *wishing in my head - Please now evil Twi! Please no evil Twi* *cough* Anyway I can't wait for more and thank you for sharing your story
What Jewelius says to they after silencing them is from Pinocchio.
Here's hoping for some good soon... and for the end of the tyrannical reign.
7626536 Same here.
Oooooo, I hope these bastards get their rightful comeuppance soon!
And ESPECIALLY that worthless traitor Jewelius!
And I didn't think I could hate any MLP character WORSE than I do Starlight Glimmer.
Guess I was wrong.
Wow, this is getting good! I wonder how Twi will respond
On to the next Chapter!
Forward against the tyranny of the usurper!

WOOT!!! And the hits just keep coming
In a funny way they all kind of deserve this. Celestia has been playing a dangerous game depending on five ponies with little to no combat experience to fight agaisnt the most dangerous threats Equestria has ever seen and seemingly lost those said fights before they pull out a lucky victory. However I can stretch my suspension of disbelief to an extent but when this episode first came out I nearly threw my remote into my T.V. The Mane 5 knew NOTHING of Cadance unlike Twilight so they should've listened to her warnings more intently. And Celestia......What the actual hell?! Whenever there has been an LEGITIMATE threat to Equestria Twilight never kids around. So you'd think she would've taken Twilight's warnings more seriously! There was no excuse for it. Then the icing on this wedding cake of idiocy was the fact they were all like "Oh, no harm no foul right?" This is why I love stories like this. Twilight isn't so forgiving because in real life she wouldn't be.
7709024 Plus, Cadance is Celestia’s favorite niece and Shining Armor’s beloved bride. You'd think they would’ve know her better than that.
7709180 You are correct. So even IF they beat King Jewelius nothing is gonna change. Because he is RIGHT. Princess Celestia's reckless behavior has nearly destroyed Equestria now three times. She is not fit to be a ruler. I honestly like this fic. (Honestly I had the same idea of a royal jumping on Celestia's flanks, "verbally of course" for her poor leadership skills. But my OC was my Fable 3 character)
I love this story because Jewelius won at the first chapter.....And I honestly want Twilight to join him.
Why do I get the feeling you got this from Sly 2: Band of Thieves?
Great chapter, by the way
Ura! Down with slavery!
Yes!!! Thank you!
I think this is a master piece. The way you portray such twisting plots, and sincerely i liked the part that celestia and luna were cast off from power... well, i got nothing against princess Luna, but Princess Celestia is, to say it directly, pretty useless. I agree with some here, Equestria has gone through great threats THREE times, and she never did anything, instead letting others do what she should do when she's supposedly an 'all-powerful' alicorn, and she couldn't have faced it herself? That's pretty disappointing.
Where the next chapter
7812778 Working on it
are you almost done with it
