This story is a sequel to A Queen's Perspective - Sick Week


A week before their trip to Camp Everfree, the girls discover they have abilities they've only seen a few times before, used by Queen Twilight. How will they use these powers, and can they learn to controll them before their trip begins?

Looking forward to more of this timeline:yay:. Will they be getting longer lifespans and more changeling abilities at some point?

The whole transformation nullifier feels like a such a big cop-out even if it's a minimal thing and if we are going this route shouldn't Rainbow and Twilight have the more prominent changes as it seems that they are a varient of protoqueens, now if magics are starting to intermingle shouldn't Celestia and Luna start getting floaty hair?

I do wonder fi down the road they start lay eggs

Now this, this is fascinating. I look forward to the next installment.

Okay, some background that isn't explained in the story (because the girls wouldn't know that stuff):

Twilight's initial changes after the game happened because her counterpart was a changeling queen. She was never previously affected because she hadn't previously come in touch with equestrian magic. That is also the reason why Celestia and Luna are remain as they are. These sudden and rather drastic changes to Twilight were only possible because so much magic was used at once. (less magic - less side effects) When Rwinbow became a queen, her counterpart didn't immediately change to accomodate that because no sufficient source of magic was availiable (the girl's regular musical pony-up's wouldn't be enough for that), but did exert a pressure to change on her and between her and Twilight, due to the link they share (which manifests as a hivemind but is actually quite a bit more than that), also on the other five. This pressure caused their psychic awakening and the later physical changes. These changes also affect their 'pony-up forms' though the girls have yet to find out about that.

As for the portal-bypass, is it really a cop out? what do you think would happen if a pony or a changeling were to suddenly appear in the human world, or a human popped up in equestria? When Queen Twilight comes over she'd be limited to wherever the portal is and any concealed location she could teleport to, the girls, likewise, would be confined to the hive, because Twilight and Rainbow can stop their drones from freaking out, they can't do the same for the ponies beyond the hive. The only reason they want to visit the hive in their natural forms is that while they might be able to deal with equine bodies for a while, producing legible writing in that state would be a serious challenge for all of them save Sunset.

Well, if you look back at the final parts of the first story, you'll find Queen Twilight displaying additional changeling abilities, but only while ponied-up. In other words, only when she has access to a source of magic. Now if only the girls would get access to sources of magic in the forseable future ...

But wait you said it yourself the reason Twilight changed at all was because of the fact that she came in contact with equestrian magic but the whole world has active now leylines so Rainbow and Twilight would be affected further not to mention the moment when Midnight opened portals that would have made the leylines of both worlds connected breifly giving that world a huge boost of equestrian magic Also wouldn't gaining telepathic and telekinetic abilities and physical changes count as a drastic changes so their pony counterpart also experience them since you know pony Pinkie, Fluttershy, Rarity and AJ aren't changelings? As for the portal bypass that really wouldn't need to happen if Twilight is/was in custody of the portal (wasn't she?) besides writing thing you kinda invalidated that with the hiveminde skill share ability displayed here, Queen Twilight or Sunset or even Queen RD could show them how to operate in their pony/changeling form.

I love the concept but those certain things have been bothering me for a while so I felt I had to mention them.

Also this is more from the perspective of Sunset than it is from Queen Twilight don't you think?

Okay, a few things here, first things first, the leylines never connected, LAP's series clearly established that even small leylines are visible, I didn't see one go through any of the portals, did you?
Next, the girls are working of the assumption that when they transfer over two of them would become earth ponies and at least one would become a pegasus, writing with magic wouldn't be to different from writing with psychic power, but while Queen RD might be able to give human fluttershy the knowledge of how to write with wings, neither Queen ever had to write with hooves so Pinkie and AJ would be out of luck. They could use their psychic power but remember even Sunset, who still has some training from having been a unicorn (even if she is a bit out of practice) got a headache after only a few paragraphs. I know it isn't stated anywhere but that was not from holding the book, that was because writing involves a lot of accurate movements.
As for their equestrian versions, they lack that same connection, and even if they did get such power at some point, remember that they live in Ponyville, weirder things have happened to them, repeatedly.

That aside, 'A Queen's Perspective' is a title, don't read too much into it.

So the girls are all now vampires & have Mewtwo powers.... Neat!

Not how I'd have explained it, but sufficiently accurate I s'pose

Indeed, the first word of a sentence should be capitalized. However, neither one of those begins a sentence, both continue a sentence after a comma, the paragraph break in only the result of it being formated as a letter.

"Well, normal is officially dead."

Wouldn't it lovely? Who want normal anyway. :pinkiehappy:

Any idea when the next installment comes out? :pinkiehappy: I'm dying to see what happens at camp ever free. Also I'm calling it now either Sunset is the 'Queen' in the hive mind as noted by her enjoyment if communion with the hive mind or all of them touch on it to a degree and pull a royal sister thing like Queens Twilight and Rainbow. Hmm good hives in EGs first...:pinkiegasp:

I'm afraid I'm getting a tad caught up in a whole mess of things. I'm trying to work on the next part, but I keep getting distracted. This series always has me struggling with one particular problem. I know where I want the stories to go, but I'm not sure how to get them there. As for what kind of status they have, they're above normal drones, but below queens, if you've read all of the Hive series you should be able to recognize something similar ...

9404926
Fair enough, I can under stand getting caught up in things and trying to figure out where to take a story. Take your time, we will be here when you get another up.

As for the girls...your going to make me reread the series again ain'tcha. :pinkiecrazy: the only thing I remember above drones but below Queens are Princesses/Proto Queens. Am I missing something?

9404978
You are. The series shows changelings in a number of forms: eggs, nymphs, drones, princesses, proto-queens, queens and one more. One of which there is only one example ... the girls are comparable to that one (take a closer look at RotH CP1.)

9404983
Ok I'll take a look there. The only one example I can think of there is Former Queen Castila. No royal blood but still powerful in her own right. I will reread that chapter just to be sure though. :pinkiehappy:

9404997
Well there we go. I think Celestia calls her a 'Regent' so that's what I'm going with.

9405000
Cool. :pinkiehappy: Now this I got to see. :raritywink:

Will you make the sequel soon?

9419323
I already am.
Took me a while to get over my writer's block ... and not get distracted all the time ...
But I'm actively working on it now and it's about ... 33% complete I'd say ...

i can't wait for the sequl to come out to this Hive universe... now that i think about it i have yet to finish the latest addition to the hive series.

You can post the first chapter. There is no need to make a one big chapter for a detail arc like Camp Everfree.

Really hope to see the Legend of Everfree one very soon.^_^

Looking forward to the next one soon.^_^

So I have to ask... These psychic abilities render Twilight's, Rarity's, and possibly Sunset's geodes redundant. What did you have in mind for that?

I'm asking because it's been over a year since this story was posted, so I'm going under the assumption that if you were going to make a Legend of Everfree-based story, you'd have already done so by now.

9884372
LOE is proving to be tricky, and I get sidetracked easily.

That being said, these psychic abilities don't render their geodes redundant at all. Sure, they can do the same things, but the geodes are vastly more powerful. At lest that's the case for Twilight and Rarity. In Sunset's case, reading minds not connected through a hivemind has been establoshed as possible, but extremely difficult to pull off, and there is no established way tomread memories as Sunset can at all.

When are you going to start the next arc, legend of Everfree?
Also, are you planning to include the song sung by Gaia Everfree?

9884924
When?

Now then, to Camp Everfree and beyond!

9884924
... I am expecting an epic gloriosa fight

having just reread all this. Will you ever finish it?

Its been a long time so just wondering.

Still hoping there's going to be a follow up to this story arc in this universe. Would love to see this take of Everfree.
