So this is the long awaited sequel? Yay!!!!!

No, not the sequel. A series of anthologies. Explore the alternate universe, expand things a bit, things like this. I posted a Blog post about it. The actual sequel is still in the works.

That will come later. Don't worry; it's in the works.

"We rarely used it rather rarely, but we have it."

One of those 'rarelys' is not needed

But I look forward to more

Interesting to see the early uses of guns/muskets in this AU; perhaps Rainbow Dash and her troops are using them as well.

Two corrupt leaders going to help each other out, Will a romance bloom?

Ouch, The road to forgiveness and redemption can be a long one but to those that persevere the effort is worth it.

Hm...I kind of expected Celestia to get out of that funk, as she's probably made mistakes in the past...but who am I to judge. An interesting start.

You know I kind of pity Celestia right now.

Nice chapter!

All it took for Sombra was a taste of his own medicine to see the errors of his ways.

I bet that was rather helpful mentally (can't spell the name for it) for Celestia.

To be completely honest, I’d love to more interaction between Rainbow, her family, and Scootaloo and Rumble. I feel like in the Broken and the Damned it’s a bit glossed over, and this story is the perfect one to dive a bit deeper into them as characters.

The romance was nice in my opinion.

"Indeed it is", Celestia replied, looking over the city longingly. After a brief pause, she asked him, "Is there something you'd like to say?"

Sombra balked in panic. "W-what do you mean?"

"You seem... skittish. Like you need to get something off your chest."

Sombra sighed, before saying, "Celestia, ever since you found me like... that, you've done nothing but help me.

(Boreas by Todd Parrish)

The two of them began to move together, holding onto each other's forelegs. At first, they nearly stumbled over one another, through a mix of rustiness and difference in how each of them was taught. However, after a few attempts and almost falling over twice, they finally managed to get into it. They still moved rather stiffly, but they were still able to keep up with the other couples on the dance floor. Celestia snuck a look over Sombra's shoulder, spying her sister and Diodiece encouraging her with a wave and a toasted glass respectively.

This part seems... odd. The conversation suddenly cuts off, then it's partially repeated a few paragraphs down from this.

It feels like it repeated itself.

even though this is anthropology, are there going to be an over-arcing theme present within all of them that ties it all together.

I had been watching the disney brain's review of power ranger series by time of this comment and his discussion of the diferent themes of various power ranger series has me looking for deeper meaning in things I've read, seen or heard.

She couldn't help but internally cringe at the sight of her student's hind legs, which were bound in a wheel-chair

I take it she has one of these:

the other soldiers at the fort killed about

This should probably be "milled"

Good chapter! I'm curious how this is going to turn out with the changes in this AU.

Personally speaking I always found Starlight's backstory for villainy to be childish at best and idiotic at worst. Seriously she's one of the MOST OVERPOWERED characters on the franchise and she's just a unicorn. She has LITERALLY no reason to be sooo powerful. Your telling me that a unicorn whose power surpasses an ascended allicon who literally represents magic itself couldn't get in the school for gifted unicorns when FREAKING sunburst got accepted due to his Knowledge in Spells alone, despite the fact he cannot perform any of the. How did he even get into the school any way, Twilight had to hatch a Dragon egg, and she barely was able to due it until she got a rainboom fueled adrenaline boost. Your telling me he accomplished a similar feat despite never showing any abnormal levels of magical power even in adulthood. What should have happened was he left for the school and then returned a week later crying because LITERALLY everyone else could actually perform the basic requirements to attend. Also why did he never bother to write back to her. Seriously all of this could have been avoided if the had just bothered to pick up a Freaking quill at sent a letter.



Rant aside let's she how this goes.

Nice chapter! What’s with the violence tag? Is there going to be some form of a fight or a attack from the soldiers and the townsponies?

I wonder how Starlight intends to steal cutie marks from griffons...who don't have any...

Yeah this isn't going to end well for her

10055858
If you're referring to Jet Lag, he's a pony.

As for the others... Well, you'll see.

10055858
Yeah, I don't see griffons putting up with her shit, particularly when she starts targeting their goddamn SOLDIERS.

Welp, she just screwed up royally.:ajbemused:

And everyone wonders why I hate her as much as I do.:facehoof:

This is not going to end well for Starlight!

I'm taking bets, like if you think starlight trys to take the cutie marks of all nearby ponys, then trys to fight the griffons, and then gets her butt whooped. Dislike if you think she takes the cutie marks and then somehow mind controls the griffons into doing her biding, which then leads to an all out battle.

Welp. Time to get the shovel and tombstone. I'll carve the words
Here lies Starlight Glimmer. What in the seven layers of hell were you smoking when in came to Pyrhans?

Great segment!

What will be the next segment be about?

10062771
I might know who the sixth one is. Thanks!

I believe we can all agree that this went as expected. Or at least near enough. As there were bets ranging from starlight being shot and killed. To her just being arrested.

Starlight certainly bit off more than she could chew yesss...

I was wondering what and how the Mane 5 were doing.

Fluttershy, by contrast, didn't look too tired. Instead, the area around her eyes looked slightly puffy, like she had been crying. She looked much thinner than she had a few months ago, with her rips poking out from beneath her oily yellow coat. Most notably, however, was the long scar across her cheek; The result of Rainbow hitting her with her swagger stick. It normally wouldn't have been visible, but Fluttershy had waited so long before going to the doctor that it had gotten infected and scarred.

Ribs

Well, that was a nice little interlude, it's good to see they're still friends among them, and apparently Rainbow holds Twi in good enough regard that she will responde her letters and won't toss them away out of hoof (which I'm guessing was the fate of the ones Pinkie mailed).

Great chapter!

Is this a single chapter? If so, than what’s the next one going to be about or are we going straight to the sequel?

Is there any chance of time travel based shenanigans here?

Friendship Games...
Aw nuts...

10070857 That's the name of the third Equestria Girls movie; the one that introduces Sci-Twi.

To my mind, though, I don't think an Equestrian; etc.; Friendship Games would be a bad thing.

10070857
Somehow... I think the equestrian version of a certain glory hungry principal will ruin the games
