A complete deconstruction of the ‘Manipulative Mentor’ cliché. What happens when the Celestia is revealed to be an oppressive tyrant, but Twilight doesn’t care? What happens when the most faithful student sides with her beloved mentor instead of those she oppressed? She swears to help her princess and to destroy anyone who gets in her way.
I came up with this while suffering from writer's block on my other story, Twilight of Equestria. It got to the point that I decided that I might as well just post it and see what happens. No idea when it'll be updated, but it should be fun. The rating will probably go up as the story goes on.
Also, if anyone can find a better picture to go with this story, I'd love to replace this one. This isn't really what I wanted, but it's the closest I could find to matching the spirit of the story.
