Not a brony. No really, I'm not. I'm just here to see what awesome stuff this crazy fandom puts out.

When Celestia first took her crown, she quickly realized that a few ponies were a little too eager to sing her praises.

Naturally, she tried to get them to calm down.

Over a thousand years later, she's still trying.

And then the other alicorns start getting cults of their own...

This is an April Fools Day story with some actual effort put into it.

Teen sex for talk of harems, and by extension, that sex exists.

Oh, I think I know from where that statue comes from 😁
Good read!

I'm surprised that the Violet Librarians haven't attempted to recruit Starlight Glimmer, after all she is really good at setting up cults. Seriously though this was a bunch of laughs, and It does make me wonder if Opaline has a cult as well.

But then she noticed who the filly’s parents were. She recognized them instantly: Night Light and Twilight Velvet. The current leaders of the Solar Witnesses, who were already bowing and listing off her many made up titles.

:facehoof:... But why?

This.

:rainbowlaugh: Oh this is just all perfect. Consider everything from this entire story stolen for any future stories of mine. No, I'm not sorry.

“Well, it wasn’t like she was ever going to get some tail otherwise,” she declared.

:twilightangry2: I heard that, Lovebutt!

11544666
Starlight might just murder them though. Poor magic self-control and all. And Misty is Opaline's cult methinks. Sunny probably has one by now.

11544666
What makes you think she isn't a Violet Librarian? Think about it! She understands the cult mentality, she's always close to Twilight, and she's got an actual grip on reality. She is the absolutely perfect choice to lead the Librarians and keep them in check.

The stallion nodded, gave a none-too-subtle glare at the other Princesses, and trotted off. Meanwhile, everypony else looked at Twilight in disbelief and disgust.

she has to give a 5 hour lecture about STDs to EVERYРONE

I think a fun idea for a continuation of this would be the Mane 6 had their own cults, with the thought process that eventually they'd likely all ascend, via osmosis or something, by absorbing some leftover 'Divineness' from the Elements.
That make sense?

“Hail to the Lady of the Sun! She hath banished the evil Mistress of Darkness from the realm!” cried the crowd of Solar Witnesses.

Oh that's a very poor choice of words.

Good for Twilight. This should help cut down on her anxiety-induced bad decisions. Harmony also seemed to have been trying to set her up with a doofy little monkey boy for a while there, and fighting against fate is pretty cool by itself.

It was hard to believe her little angle (or possibly eldritch horror if she were honest with herself) was already a year old.

Flurry Heart is a rouge angle of satin confirmed.

Were ponies truly this obsessive?

That's vaguely adjacent to what cutie marks are, so... yes. :pinkiecrazy:

It's only murder if you do it on purpose. Now, mareslaughter on the other hand... Well, there's a nonzero chance she's already guilty of that from the time she "banished" Discord (a genuine descriptor of what destroying his physical form accomplishes, admittedly).

11545287
This is Starlight we're talking about. So yes. She would do it on purpose. And since they're cultists, normal ponies would congratulate her probably. Look at Celestia, Luna, and Cadance's cults, and how the princesses view them.

Twilight would of course say something. But still.

Firstly I wonder if she shares her harem with her friends, secondly surprised twlight didnt create a mountain of paperwork that needs to be done in triplet to join her cult

Hehehehhehehehehe. I really want to know what happened with the apples and the oranges, and I am glad twilight was willing to take one for the team.

Unwanted worship always makes for a fun time (well, for outside observers. Most of the time.) I can think of at least one Sunset Shimmer who could empathize all too well and regret that she can't pull a page out of Twilight's playbook. Delightful stuff throughout; thank you for it.

(I wonder if any of Twilight's friends want her to "share the wealth," as it were...)

All that story is just plain perfect.

11544822
?
11544828
Would Starlight even want to be part of the cult though?
11544854
Probably helps though. So only the most dedicated stick around for the whole thing, and therefore are part of the harem.
11544895
:facehoof:.

Who in their right mind would deliberately charcoal perfectly good bacon?

Wouldn't the ponies be more disturbed by the presence of meat products than by the burning of them? Unless it's a vegetable-based bacon?

Those cultists had better watch out when Flurry hits the terrible twos.

might use the cult Idea for one of my stories

She is the absolutely perfect choice to lead the Librarians and keep them in check.

Ehem. A proper head of church cult leader uses cult members for their own nefarious and selfish purposes while pretending to serve their goddess.
Yeah she would be a good choice. She would probably be glad to try every stallion. And mare. For the appropriate skills of their chosen role and perhaps others.

Welder of the Element of Magic

Ah, a true craftsmare.

“Look, it was either the harem or letting them steal magic from other ponies to give it to me. Which would you choose?”

Yeah, sure. I would totally say the same after someone offers me a harem. :twilightblush:
Her plan was truly perfect.

11546213
Twice the crime. First the perfectly good pig, then the bacon.

11544672
Obviously they've been trying to breed the perfect suitor case in point shiny

Very enjoyable read! Can't wait to see what you've included in the other chapters.

This story just gets better and better! Loving Nightmare Moon's standards, and her slowly increasing horror with the actions of her followers.

Poor Cadence...it was a good idea. Shame that the ponies she's dealing with are insane. And I do like the fact that Shining Armor is shown to be sane, and knows how crazy his parents are.

Oh, very clever plan on Twilight's part! Looking forward to how things are going to turn out when the fifth princess is born...

11547186
Yes, and I couldn't help being reminded a bit of Past Sins too. It's been A While.

“And now, presenting her newly appointed Highness, Welder of the Element of Magic, Ruler of the Central Districts, Fastest Egghead on the Continent, four times savior of Equestria, Creator of All Modern Languages…” said Spike.

well... technically, she did initiate restoration of the Elements after their previous forms had been shattered by NM, so yeah. "Welder" fits.

Wonderful… Now a large part of Equestria is going to be convinced that the crystal ponies were our enemies. Am I going to have to bury all records of the Crystal Empire just to ensure the Solar Witnesses don’t form an angry mob when it returns? thought Celestia.

This one got a chuckle out of me.

11544854
Honestly, that’d be a pretty effective way of stymieing the harem. Either she kills the mood so thoroughly, not even a necromantic aphrodisiac could bring it back, or she just winds up hosting an in-depth sex-ed class, ushering in a new wave of sexually responsible and aware ponies.

Twiggy for the win.:twilightblush:

I'm currently picturing God (the Judeo-Christian one) reading over my shoulder, laughing, and taking notes. I know for a fact He isn't, but given some of the things certain of His "worshipers" think and do, it's fun to imagine.

the fact that this is an aprils fools story is almost a crime because this is sooo goood !! ( granted you did say you put effort into this and it shows but still...april fools kinda drags everything it touches down... )
still I loved every second of this !!

Why do I feel that I should be trying to paraphrase this to fit into FiM?

What would discord Cult this look like?

11549495
Easy! He'd just imply he had a cult and leave it at that.

Cadance winced, but nodded. She’d ended up on the wrong end of those fanatic's activities before. She still had nightmares about the time she’d been forced to…
No! No, she was not letting her thoughts wander to that incident again. The one during last Hearth’s Warming. Why did such a cute filly (and even cuter colt) have to have such crazy parents?

Okay, now I'm curious: What did happen?

She crumpled up the paper and tossed it in the trash. Or at least, she tried to. At this point, the trashcan was so overflowing that the paper not only bounced out, but it failed to reach the floor afterwards.

Poor girl...

But then she noticed who the filly’s parents were. She recognized them instantly: Night Light and Twilight Velvet. The current leaders of the Solar Witnesses, who were already bowing and listing off her many made up titles.

THIS EXPLAINS TWILIGHT BETTER THAN ANY BIOGRAPHY.

after reading this I'm now curious about one thing: how will sunny starscout react to her own cult when it forms?

Without a word, Celestia reached down and pulled the “flush the Canterlot water system” lever.

I don't know why she even has that other lever...
