NOT FOR ICKY OLDER SISTERS! (Yes that means you Tutti! Hooves off or I'm telling Mom!)

Boo is your typical rebellious youth out to carve her own path in life and embrace counter-culture; if only on principle! But when her best friend shows up to school acting nothing at all like the filly she knew, Boo starts to wonder if there might be something she's missing about the world around her...

While it is advertised as a technological paradise, Light City is not without its seedy underbelly. The fine officers of the LCPD work tirelessly to tame its mean streets, and Boolean Value has had his heart set on protecting the creatures of his city for as long as he could remember.

However, his first day at the department isn't turning out to be at all what he'd dreamed. The pegasus mare who has been assigned to serve as his partner and mentor isn't living up to the high ideals he'd set. Will he lose his way beneath her cynical tutelage? Or can he hold fast to what he knows in his heart to be right?

War. War changes ponies.

It has a way of shifting priorities and perspectives. None who survive it emerge unscathed. Especially those who weren't supposed to have survived it at all.

An unscheduled detour to uncover a secret was all that saved Starlight Glimmer from dying in the fiery culmination of The Great War, along with everypony else not fortunate enough to have reserved a spot in one of Equestria's many Stables. But she did survive, and found herself in a world she didn't recognize. A world consumed with hate, violence, and death; even when no longer faced with an external zebra threat. A world she couldn't understand.

So now she seeks the only understanding that she cares about any longer: learning the fate of those she loved. Far to the north, she seeks answers to what became of the Crystal Empire, and the husband she left behind.

While it is not necessary for this story, I don't think, I do encourage reading Legacies if you want to find out how Starlight came to find herself a couple hundred years in her future.
