Once, long ago, Equestria was full of life. Then the Nightmare came. She cast down her sister, sealed away the sun and cursed the world to an eternal winter.

A thousand years later in the ruins of what was once Ponyville you find hoofprints, traces of the last pony. You follow them to answers, tragedy, and the terrible truth.

"You’ll have to take her soul. You’ll have to kill LUNA.”

"You’ll have to take her soul. You’ll have to kill LUNA.”

Rising from a timeline nearly lost to Genocide, Twilight Sparkle enters the throne room of the Queen of all Monsters, DETERMINED to make this timeline the last.

At her side is Sunset Shimmer, a disembodied voice halfway between spirit and conscience.

Standing behind her are the hopes and dreams of her friends, each and every monster in the Underground counting on her to set them free.

And in her way stands perhaps her greatest challenge yet. A foe just as determined to set everyone free as she is.

An Undertale MLP crossover AU with a twist. Set around the player's final confrontation with ASGORE.

Spoilers for Undertale may ensue.

One thousand and eight hundred years ago, in the time of the three tribes, two fillies were born.

One, Celestia, was a prodigy, destined for greatness.

The other, Luna, was a secret, destined for anonymity.

Yet the future will see both rise higher than anypony could have imagined.

The time of unicorns is ending. Now comes the time for alicorns.

Canon to the Stewardverse.

The story of Celestia and Luna's origins and ascension and maybe, just maybe, the truth of what came before.

This story is a sequel to Sunset Impossible

On the longest day of the thousandth year the Lost Princess shall return. And the Sun shall never set on her reign.

A thousand years has passed since the battle for the day that was later dubbed Nightmare Night.

Most of what took place that night has long since passed into legend; something Equestria's reclusive princess has done little to prevent.

Some say she wishes nothing more than to forget.

Others claim she is waiting.

Only whispers and stories remain. Stories of a lost princess, and the Nightmare she fell fighting.

The truth is far more terrible.

Twilight Sparkle, sole student, and confidante, of Princess Luna, knows nothing of the tragedy that has haunted her mentor for a thousand years. She also knows next to nothing of friendship.

That will soon change.

This story is a sequel to Ready and Waiting to Fall

Two things are certain in Nature.

Everything has an opposite.

And everything has a price.

Harmony has the heaviest price to pay of all, and today all the world shall weep to know it.

Note: Reading the prequel to this Ready and Waiting to Fall is recommended for context, but is not strictly necessary.

This story is a sequel to The Cost of Harmony

StewardVerse! Set approximately 15 years before the thousandth Summer Sun Celebration.

Sunset Shimmer, genius thief, has one mission: to infiltrate the royal palace, break into the vault, and get away with the goods before anypony is the wiser.

That this does not go exactly according to her plan was perhaps to be expected.

However that doesn't stop it being absolutely infuriating.

This story is a sequel to Ascension

The first story in what will hopefully be my StewardVerse, an alternate timeline, where, in order to save her sister, it was Celestia who was banished to the Sun for a thousand years.

This story comes only a few years before that fateful day as Celestia and Luna make their final stand against the villainous King Sombra in the Crystal Empire. They will face magic darker than they can possibly imagine and a tyrant who's cruelty is greater even than Discord.

However, in the end, is it possible that their greatest enemies will in fact be each other?
