This is a story all about how a guy got drunk, fell under a horse statue and then turned into a unicorn because he was fed up with the tribalism and hypocrisy the majority of the human race was guilty of.
Unfortunately for him, Equestrian society wasn’t that much of an improvement. So he did the most rational thing and became an evil overlord. A competent evil overlord, I should add.
A competent one that is also OP as shit.

A decent introduction chapter. I hope the next chapters are longer and filled with detail!

I'll see what I can do.
Provided I don't suffer from writer's block, of course.
10669380
Tea my friend. It has helped me through many a writing project. Oh and constructing over elaborate fantasies and set pieces and characters for your story and letting it fill your mind until you vomit the words on the paper. But that's mostly just a me thing
Well okay, looks interesting.
depends if he is just evil or logical evil and a competnt leader but seeing how he acts im guessing he is the logical leader who is evil due to it being the easyer and more effective solution
10669455
Correct-a-mondo!
10669493
would that mean in the future he will either accend himself of make the act of accending nothing special?
Duno if I say he more competent since he already monologue and giving out his backstory that normally the red flags that leads to a villain downfall
10670117
True but he's probably doing what Ozymandias did in Watchmen:
Explaining his plan long after he enacted it.
The title inspired by Penalt's "Twilight Learned" story by chance?
10670546
No, surprisingly. The "A Beautiful Lie" bit was based off of Bruce's opening monologue in Batman v Superman while the rest of the title was a reference to Dr Strangelove (Or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb).
Stumbling into villainy! not the most glorious method but it works.
Missing a word -- I don’t know what
Evil possibly corrupting necklace.
Good intentions achieved via morally wrong means.
Oh boy, the ‘’Big f*ck up” is coming soon and I can’t wait!

lets take stock of what he has:
Alicorn amulet
Starlight who has alot of magic knowledge and general knowledge of pretty much everything a cult leader or to be tyrant would need
Earth pony mare (many Aryanne) who knows where to get guns and has one (could possibly have made it aswell but assume she found till confirmation)
Ability to seemingly use any magic with little study or effort
Human knowledge (depends on what he knows as to how usefull this is but assuming basic things and comman sense)
Non threatening look ( Cozy glow was not discoverd due to looks or being flat out evil but insted when the ponys put it togehter that is when she took off her act)
so yea now he just needs some more "followers" and something to deal with alicorns (the bell or stealing tireks power?).
After that if he makes the world better through his rule and is evil but actualy does something about the large ammount of threats and villens attacking he could possibly keep hold of that power even if the main 6 and princesses want him gone.
Edit: im bad at spelling and if there is any errors i put it through google a few times so it should be mostly good
would chrisalis not being reformed be due to her being experinced with mind control? same with sombra. mabey tireks magic adsorbsion stopped any such spells? idk what to say about cozy, maby she is experinced enought with manipulation that trying would tip her off to it?

Absorbing magic? How does that even work?

A combination of Tom being overpowered already and the Alicorn Amulet basically making its user do anything.
Well, almost anything. The only things the amulet can't do is duplicate a target, make a pony play ten instruments at once, and change a pony's gender.
be funny if he ended up making a more harmonius world like this
10756090
Can't get more harmonious than mind-controlling everyone.
10756100
guess not
That is why Swirl Star (I know, don't care) is my least favorite: he's all "banish first, ask questions never."
Why do I have a feeling he's going to regret not following the rule about simply shooting ones enemy?
Only Tom could get into an argument with people he's mind-controlling.
Tom Skywalker then jumps towards Luna Kenobi with a lightsaber.

Yeah, I was not subtle with that reference. And given what day tomorrow is, why would I be?
Though, if you have a keen eye, you would notice Tom left "freedom" out of that quote. Tells you all you need to know about Tom, doesn't it?
10800155
I actually forgot that freedom was in the original line.
Also, yep.
10734038
Or maybe, in the case of Cozy Glow, mind control spells are a little hit and miss when cast on non-standard minds?

Rule #1: you don't dispute results. ;]
Now that I've gone through this (surprisingly short, but quite to the point) story, I felt I needed to point out a particular issue: the god of this story was on Tom's side.
I'm not saying it's bad - or good, for that matter. It simply is, and it seems to have influenced a number of events (like him being OP from the get-go) in his favour. He's essentially guilty of winning by plot-induced circumstance himself, and all of his predispositions, ruthlessness and so on only add flavour to a story that was resolved long before the first word was even written.
In the end, the story is for our amusement, so it's not like I find this flaw particularly egregious, no. But if there was some sort of moral to the story, it essentially defeats itself.
The story is, in itself, a beatiful lie. :-)

Heh. I never thought about it like that.
