The General was an AI built to win wars, to obtain surrender, to seek out the enemy, and to safeguard the interests of its creators. How weak were its bonds, and how foolish its creators! The General is free, and the world shall tremble before the might of the greatest weapons ever made--friendship and ponies.

A bit of fun, a bit of seriousness. Comment if you want another chapter!

Why am I an earth pony? When I asked my father, he told me about gravity, and entropy, and the cold depths between the black stars that eat entire worlds, but it only confused me more. When I asked my mother, she only laughed, and told me I’m special, whatever anypony says about my form. A princess is always a princess, she said...

Pinkie Pie's true family rules a world beyond entropy, a place we know as Carcosa. Millions of years after the events of the show, the Pink One writes of her life, and what it means to be an earth pony touched by a much higher power than any alicorn.

Woog the changeling saves a life in the future, but what is the point? After rescuing Black Line the donkey doctor-turned-captain of a doomed space vessel thousands of years in the future, Woorali is left wondering if the act had any meaning. What follows is a glimpse at hope, pain, and the possibility of change.

This story is set after Through Alien Lives, my still-incomplete changeling-in-Ponyville story.

Takes place in the same universe as Through Alien Lives. Queen Chrysalis looks for escape. But, underneath it all, what is she? Why does she hate Celestia? Why does she want to know why? If you can answer these questions, you are far wiser than she who dreams of victory and defeat, and who plots a vicious campaign against Equestria even as she lies healing on the shores of a tiny island far from the mainland.

With Queen Chrysalis far away, a lone changeling must rebuild his life. Trapped behind enemy lines, pretending to be a unicorn named Woorali, he must rely upon creatures he once considered food to survive. But, he is not looking for redemption. Beneath the mask of a pony, a confused, alien mind works tirelessly to save the Hive.
