      ~ Act III ~ 31 ~ The Tale of the Four Princesses ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Rarity had a very strange dream that night. It began inside a large room within Canterlot Castle. It was a beautiful room, with marble floors and mahogany furniture, carved and polished until everything shined. Oil portraits hung on the walls, depicting elegantly dressed mares and stallions. The air smelled of fresh flowers, and not a speck of dust could be found. It was an immaculate sight, save for one small detail. Discord, or rather a statue of him, stood in the middle of the room, laughing at…

      ~ Interlude IX ~ An Enchanted Library ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic “Twilight, if what Captain Armor told me is true, then I agree with Spike. You are not at fault.” Princess Twilight Sparkle did not immediately reply to Captain Iron Cobbler’s remark. She knew he meant it. She knew Shining Armor had meant it, as had Princess Luna, and Princess Celestia, and Cadance, and Spike. They had all meant it, and it was only polite she acknowledged their statement, wasn’t it? “Thank you, Captain,” she said, looking up at him with what she hoped wasn’t an…

      by Monochromatic “Pinkie, you’re positive you’ll be fine without me?” Seeking Night would grace Hollow Shades in about a week, which gave Rarity and Pinkie only about that long to bring the tentatively named Princess Luna Confidence Project, a very long-term plan to slowly but surely combat the chaos magic plaguing Hollow Shades, to fruition. Their current base of operations, also known as Professor Awe’s house, was filled with presents of all kinds: teddy bears, toy cars, dolls,…

      ~ Act III ~ 33 ~ The Shared Memories ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic It was strange that, for once, Rarity was the one impatiently waiting for somepony else at the train station. A large cup of coffee floated beside her, which she’d bought on account of not sleeping since her reunion with Spike a few hours back. Then again, it wasn’t as though she really needed the coffee, since she felt very much awake. She’d had a busy early morning, after all: going to Cheerilee’s house and insisting that Scootaloo, Sweetie, and Apple Bloom were needed at home due to…
    • ~ Act III ~ 35 ~ The Last Seeking Night ~

      ~ Act III ~ 35 ~ The Last Seeking Night ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Everything felt like a blur. Somepony escorted her out. Was it Rift? Another one of the guards? She didn’t remember, and she didn’t much care. It felt very much like her entire world had shifted, but not like it had when she met Twilight. There was no sense of wonder and excitement to the discovery she’d just made. There was just horror. Horror at realizing just how deep the rabbit hole went. A glass of water was set in front of her on the table. She looked up and she saw Rift Shield, a…

      ~ Act III ~ 34 ~ The Return to Canterlot Castle ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic The days went by faster than Rarity had expected, and soon enough she found herself hours away from her trip to Canterlot. Was it some sort of aftermath of her time spent cursed? Or was it because days without Twilight felt endless compared to those with her? Rarity had barely left the library since her return to Ponyville. Spike had not spoken with Twilight again, as he’d gone back to Smoky Mountain to retrieve all his many possessions and bring them to his new permanent home. Thankfully, like…

      ~ ??? ~ A Long Wait ~ End of Book I ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Carousel Boutique had never looked emptier and, in fact, it had never been emptier. Most of her things had already been carted away, taken to the train that would lead her to a new life away from Ponyville. Away from her family. Away from the Everfree Forest, and away from… her. “Rarity… I don’t want you to go…” Trotting out of Carousel Boutique, Rarity stopped and embraced the little filly trailing behind her, whose hot tears stained her elder sister’s coat. Pinkie Pie was…
