well this was dark and pinkamena pony existed before? holy shit keep writing

Second fic I read so far this week about the dark secret of the stone statues. :pinkiehappy:

Celestia being pointlessly cruel?
No. (-)

This actually make sense, logically speaking that is because Celestia needs to be hashed in order to came the peace.

I felt that was a bit rushed to Celestia explaining everything, but as she did, it got really interesting. Nice work!

Very nice and very dark......i wounder what happens next.........*laughs maniacally*:pinkiecrazy::pinkiecrazy:

That's Tyrant Celestia for you!

I hope Filthy Rich gets turned to stone before Diamond Tiara's eyes; and that it shocks her so much she plots against Celestia, succeeding to such an extent that the princess is irreparably hurt in the process. Like losing her sister again, this time for good, when Luna finds out she was pardoned for her Nightmare Moon stint almost immediately, but her general is tortured forever. Or that Twilight's friends disagree with Celestia's practice (can anyone see Fluttershy being okay with this?), leading to her banishing them from her kingdom and turning Twilight against her in the process too. Maybe they take up refuge with Cadance and Shining Armor, and Equestria and the Crystal Empire go to war.

It'd also be interesting if Filthy Rich was actually innocent. I doubt he'll be, though; his name alone ensures a villain role, and being Diamond Tiara's father doesn't help. Still would be nice...

An interesting story. The formatting and style seem a bit odd. I think there could have been more descriptions, and more of a preamble to twilight just un-stoning one. But I am interested to see what Twilight would/will do with this knowledge. It may just be me, but I find the writing a little janky....

I'll say this: Things turned out quite differently to what I expected. Kudos.

However, you should definitely slow down a bit. I mean, Diamond Tiara going from Canterlot to Ponyville, sneaking into Golden Oaks Library, copying the de-petrification spell (nevermind that she's an earth pony who can't use regular unicorn magic, so she'd need some other way to cast it), going back to Canterlot, and freeing Discord all happens in a few sentences. That's moving too quickly! Take some time to explore a bit more; your readers will be grateful.

Warning: Tyrantlestia detected! Warning: Tyrantlestia detected! Abort! Abort!

Aw, man. You ruined it. The first chapter was so good with the explanations as to why the ponies were stoned were there. Then you had to go and pull this stunt. What a let down.

Wow, Earth Pony casting such advanced spell? Diamond Tiara is truly a prodigy!

I don't think earth ponies can cast magic...dude, this needs an AU tag for that alone. :ajbemused:

not like you storys are any bettar. This is a really good story and i am waiting for a new chapter for long time. Please stop talking about good storys because you have the no taste.

salo, why is he in need of the AU tags? It's not like you read it anyways.

That was a bit...fast. At least let things more lament on the "frozen and baked, crapped on by birds" sort of fate and let Twilight really realize the horror as she secretcly watches. And show a bit of tricking Twilight, or have Twilight in on it. Just having a character turned to stone immediately, then immediately unturned with a mistaken other depetrification is bonkers, let alone for so short a chapter, and Diamond Tiara doing this so easily and with such adult-like thinking is jarring.

Shame the story went by so fast. The first part was so good.
