A long time ago Flitterheart had a little sister that she loved dearly. Years later, she's under the assumption her sister is dead, and she wishes nothing more than to go back in time and see her one last time.

Starbeam Twinkle is an archmage of exceptional skill but dubious integrity. There are things she won't do, but she cares little about laws that she doesn't agree with. Time travel's banned for a reason, but as long as her clients aren't trying to get rich or anything else she finds morally questionable, she considers it fair game.

Except Starbeam wasn't expecting was to face a moral quandary of her own...

There are fates worse than Tartarus. There are fates worse than petrification. There are even fates worse than death. Being banished to G3 isn't one of them. At least it wouldn't be for most ponies. Unfortunately for her, Cozy Glow isn't most ponies.

Plan a party with Cozy Glow, then watch her balloons lift her up to the sky.
Cozy Glow will show us games to play; Cozy Glow will be painting away.
Cozy Glow always dresses in style; Cozy Glow's magic brings a great big smile
I hope we hear a story from Cozy Glow, and a beautiful Cozy melody...

It's everything she ever wanted... and nothing at all like what she'd hoped for. At least she's a princess now. But then again so is everypony else. There's a pegasus that can do magic... but it isn't her. The tribes all live separately, yet try as she might, she can't make them hate each other.

Character tags: Minty, Star Catcher, Skywishes, Wysteria, Razzaroo, Kimono, Rarity, Rainbow Dash (the one who AlwaysDressesInStyle), Pinkie Pie, Thistle Whistle, Cotton Candy, Zipzee, and one miserable pegasus filly named Cozy Glow who might just find her true destiny after all.

Tied for second in the Cozy Glow group's 5th annual contest. Prompt: History is written by the winners.

Every few years, Kimono goes home to Neighpan. This time she brings Minty, and the pair are discovered by a filmmaker.
