      ~ Act II ~ 14 ~ The Missing Owl ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic “What do you think she’s doing down there?” “I haven’t the faintest idea.” In front of the spiral staircase, Rarity and Fluttershy observed the magical barrier cocooning the stairway entrance to the lower floor with curiosity. The barrier had been there since they’d first arrived, and it prevented them from investigating the loud sounds rattling downstairs. From what Twilight had said the day before, Rarity had been afraid she’d be the only applicant to an intense training regime,…

      ~ Act II ~ 15 ~ The Kitten and the Butterfly ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic It had been nearly a week and a half since Elara had taken up temporary residence at Fluttershy’s cottage. Rarity thought it a testament to Twilight’s growing trust in them that she didn’t protest—too much—at having the owl away from home. Rarity knew how important the owl was to Twilight, though—and so when Elara was ready to go, she wasted no time in picking her up, telling the Cutie Mark Crusaders “no, for the twentieth time, you cannot come along today,” and heading off to the…

      ~ Interlude IV ~ An Untold Bedtime Story ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Apple Crisp was just a foal when he met the Spirit of Chaos. It happened on a normal day of a normal week of perhaps an unusual year. To little Crisp, there was nothing wrong with the kingdom of Equestria. The wars his father spoke of late at night seemed unreal, distant, and it felt to the foal as if Lone Tree Valley was the safest place in the land—right after his old home, Canter Capital. On that particularly normal day, the entire Apple Family had gathered around for an early dinner. Uncle…

      The Enchanted Kingdom

      The Enchanted Kingdom Cover
      by Monochromatic It’s easy to think about fairytales when you’re an ancient alicorn trapped in a library for centuries on end. It’s easy to wonder how one would go about rescuing you, to think and devise and plot out how to free you in a blaze of glory, intrigue, adventure, and romance. Or, rather, it’s easy until suddenly it happens and you’re forced to ask yourself the one terrifying question you’d yet to consider. Now what?

      ~ Prologue ~ The Storyteller of Luna Bay ~

      ~ Prologue ~ The Storyteller of Luna Bay ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic On the northwestern-border of Equestria and The Undiscovered West, at the edge of Luna Bay, rested a small forgotten village by the name of Moon Shine. It did not feature on most maps as there was nothing remarkable about it beyond twenty houses, a run-down shop, a small school, a tiny post-office, and an inn older than all of the villagers combined. If somepony had asked North Ridge when was the last time he'd stepped into an Equestrian town, the only truly accurate reply would be thirty-two years ago.…

      ~ Act I ~ 01 ~ The Princess Awoken ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Once upon a time, nestled in a comfy bed and somepony's embrace, an alicorn stirred awake. A yawn escaped her lips, and upon opening her eyes, she saw the night sky beyond the bedroom window, filled with stars and constellations. They were distant and faded, beautiful and clear all at once, and she named each one in her head. At the back of her mind, she thought the stars in her dreams had never been clearer. She closed her eyes, a smile blooming on her lips, and it felt like the soft pillow under…

      ~ Act I ~ 02 ~ The New Ponyville ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Though it was North Ridge who'd agreed to travel with her to Ponyville, Rarity was the one to list three conditions for their travels. First, they were to travel only during the night, when all ponies slept; second, he was not to speak of her to anypony without her explicit permission; and third, they would travel alone without exception. With little hesitation, he agreed. How could he not, knowing what he knew? The sun shone over a normal Saturday morning in Ponyville. Ponies trotted along…

      ~ Interlude I ~ A Near-Death Experience ~

      ~ Interlude I ~ A Near-Death Experience ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Face to face, he saw her only once. In his dreams, however, he’d seen her nearly every other night; in dreams where his hindlegs still worked, still moved, where he was not crippled for life. He was a painter by trade. Or had been, at least. He was more accurately a fool; a fool who’d embarked on an ill-fated journey to trap the world in paintings and now found himself trapped in the unforgiving claws of the forest. He’d lost his supplies, lost his way, and he feared his very own life would…
