Sunset Shimmer must have felt nervous about meeting Princess Celestia again. She couldn’t even be mad at Celestia anymore, even though by all rights she should. If she could just be loved, maybe that would prove enough.
Every day, Princess Celestia wakes up in terrible pain, and every day, she chooses to endure it, until the one day she's left feeling blissfully normal. Few things have ever scared her so much.
After Twilight Sparkle finishes Starswirl's spell, Celestia sends the Bearers on a new grand quest... but not all is as it seems. How, exactly, was Equestria really made?
When Twilight Sparkle starts to become a problem, Chrysalis doesn't send her to the catacombs. After all, what a waste it would be, to send a pony filled with platonic love away when she could use her as a puppet instead.
Currently Working On: Chapter Three - done! Work on next chapter will begin shortly. Total Fic Progress: I plan on one chapter and two interludes to follow this chapter, though some chapters may be split up for length
[Comment-Driven] Twilight wakes up on the floor, injured and alone. The town of Ponyville is dark, its inhabitants twisted. And none of them can leave.
Currently Working On: To be honest, this fic is just for some fun! Who knows where it's going or when the next chapter will come One day I will make some better cover art for it though.

Sometimes the last page of one story is just the first page of another. Sometimes Pinkie Pie and her family are endearingly weird. And sometimes Twilight finds happiness in the small things, even in her darkest hours.
