Seismology


On here to write stories. Mostly blueprints of larger ideas. I hope you all enjoy what I have to offer! It's all for the people!

Queen Chrysalis had a plan. A plan to enact revenge against Princess Twilight Sparkle, but what happens when this plan goes awry and instead backfires against her? What happens when she loses her precious crown?

The crown is detached, couldn't she just not put it back on?

I could have written it better, but the crown's magic is linked to her. So when it reactivates so shall she return to her form.

hand crown to spike.
give him some condiments.

It's like Ice King from Adventure Time.

Most likely it's bonded to her through some kind of enchantment. For the sake of not continuously digging a bottomless pit of lore, let's just say the solution is to take the crown to a specific place and destroy it there, like in Lord of the Rings

This cries out for more chapters! With each round of sanity, we would learn more about how this happened to her.
story: tracked

Its is a short one shot so I don't think there will be future chapters.

Her reasoning for putting on the crown doesn't make much sense without further context

the crown promised me eternal love

Which would make perfect sense if she was a changeling before she picked it up but since she didn't become a changeling until after she found it some explanation for why she was so desperate that she would go for a cursed item would be expected.

Then there is the other questions of what does this mean for the other changelings? Can they be changed back too? Or no since they were never ponies? Would they cease to be if the curse was dispelled? Are they all just cursed ponies? Did her curse temporarily being broken change anything for the others?

Maybe no future chapters. However, I take hope in this line in his profile.
"Mostly blueprints of larger ideas."
Also "why she was so desperate that she would go for a cursed item "
How about a mare 2,3 years into a relationship, they break up she is devastated, finds the crown and it whispers that it can give her what she has lost and just knows that she will never have again.
Other Changelings? I'm just tossing ideas out here.

Would have been a good explanation but it's missing from the short but that's just one more thing that could be expanded on later if it were continued.

Other Changelings

But are there actually any other changelings? or all they all cursed like she is from the same item?

Lots of ways you could expand it to a fairly long story just exploring how chrysalis crown being a cursed item changes everything else.

I could expand on this short later. I think the idea of the crown being cursed is an interesting take. The idea goes is that the crown promised eternal love, yes, but the eternal loves comes at a price of having to forcibly take it from others. It's like a devil's curse type of item, I'd like to imagine. I do admit I could have written it better, it was just a quick one shot spurred on from an idea I had in the shower. So I may do a series on it as there appears to be some interest.

I'd certainly be interested in that. Either way, best of luck with whatever you do going forward!
:)

"I'm sorry. It's um... The nullifier was only meant to be temporary."
The former Queen's eyes went crazed as she looked back to Twilight with pleading eyes. "Please oh please make it permanent! I don't want to go back!" She dropped the floor, sobbing heavily.

Would it help to just destroy the crown?
Maybe a few swings with a hammer would do the job.


Good story!
I enjoyed reading it.

At first I expected this story to go an entirely different direction:
The crown is actually Chrysalis' source of power, and by destroying it Twilight makes her helpless.
Something like those crystals and the Sirens in the EQG movie.

I'll definitely consider expanding on this

How things turned out was almost exactly what I expected, more or less. I expected that without the crown, Chrysalis would just be a normal Changeling and no longer under its influence and that the "Queen" was the crown itself. I also expected that if someone else were to put on the crown (or at least another Changeling), it would turn them into the Changeling Queen


11220660
It would also make sense if, before putting on the crown, she was alone and unloved, possibly neglected as a child or even abused.

Perhaps the other Changelings are actually Changelings, but Chrysalis being the Queen gave birth to them. And perhaps the magic of the crown being dispelled simply removed any influence she may have had over the Changelings. Alternatively, the rest of the Changelings could just be magical constructs and would disappear. But the first idea is better in my opinion.


11220668
I may actually consider taking on that idea for myself sometime. This deserves to be a long-form story. At the very least, have a second chapter to explain whether or not things do work out.

You call for help . . . .


And nobody came.
