In a desperate move to stop a horrible future from coming to pass, Star Swirl the Bearded has stranded himself just before the war of the sisters... But his greatest fears are realized as he discovers time has been altered and these new course of events may lead to an even more horrible fate for Equestria.

To right a wrong of long ago, Princess Celestia and Luna use their magic to return an exiled pony during the spring starfall festival.

Please note: This is the original story released on DA over 2 years ago and - despite how hard I tried to give it a connection to FiM then - it didn't really stand the test of time. Still, even with all its issues, this was my first fic for MLP and I wanted to give it a permanent home on here.

This story lead to the prequel Dominion of the Night, the spin-off Nightfall, and multiple other stories that have yet to be released. Even so, Starfall was originally a stand-alone story so you won't need to read anything else beforehand. Also, because this story is mostly unedited (and was my first attempt at really writing a full blown fic), it has numerous grammatical mistakes. I've touched it up in places, but some sections would require complete rewrites which would be a bit too much work.

Last but not least, the story centers around an OC of mine named Star Flare which is clearly a mary sue. Love her or hate her, she is what she is. /shrug

tldr; version: is the original story, has a mary sue, only has touch-up edits

As Luna begins her downward spiral to evil, Star Swirl the Bearded returns from a dark future and makes a terrible discovery - someone, or something, has altered the course of time! As he works to set things right, will his involvement change things for the better, or has the mage doomed Equestria to an even more terrible fate?

Made the feature box twice!
