Velar’s mind flitted constantly between fear, relief, and maybe a little of something else. Starlight Glimmer had come with him, despite everything she had seen. No pony had seen more of Accipio than she had or had come to know him as well. Now she stood beside him on the ship at the end of his world. First Mount Ignis had done its best to erase Accipio and everything they had ever accomplished. Now their own kind had come to finish the job.“The fleet has mostly surrendered, V-Velar,” the captain was…-

Evoli looked out at her army, swollen with the ranks of the mighty force sent to destroy her. Many of these drones still wore the body-paint or armor of her enemies, glittering in the dawn sunlight. But all that armor didn’t protect them. There was no chance that the great queens wouldn’t realize what she had done. The real question was—how much of their army was this? It would take them at least five years to grow replacements. That assuming they could find the glamour to do it. Without so many…-

The city extended in all directions, an endless gray eternity that stretched across all reality. Streets crowded with gray figures, moving in hushed, slumping groups. Dark cars sped past her down muddy roads, splashing helpless pedestrians on either side.It was every worst day she’d ever had, when dark eyes waited in every window. When Ventus’s whispers compelled her to unspeakable things. She would not be deceived by such a voice ever again, no matter how sweetly it said her name.“It’s us against…-

It wasn't easy to save a princess and her people at the same time. But Mira, fortunately, was not alone. The bats of Legacy were not all equally united in their labor, but they were at least on the same side. There was no fear of an Equestrian army crushing them with the Astral Sea swirling and Equestria bereft of skilled dreamwalkers of its own. The unicorn imitation could get them only so close.The resources available to Mira's mission ebbed and flowed as the years passed. Greater sometimes, when the…-

For the second time that day, Jacob followed his instincts instead of his senses and buckled himself into the copilot’s seat. Harley cast him one frustrated look before she vanished out the door and snapped it closed. Jacob unclipped the helmet from the back of the chair even as a dull roar rose from above them, the unmistakeable sound of rotors as they started to spin.“What the buck are you still doing here?” Rainbow asked, flipping down the polarized visor. She went to work on the controls like a…-

Mira did not invite the captain of the Diaspora to visit her in Meridian's home. Rather, she couldn't help the feeling that showing anything less than the wealth of a princess would fail to impress the crew. If that happened, she might lose her best chance at a ship brave enough to venture into the Astral Sea. But they couldn't judge her as the regent of Princess Luna if she had no palace to inspect.So she went to the dock, with only Pixie and Kallisto for company. With Kallisto's help, they both wore the…

What should Charlie expect a child's bedroom to look like in another universe? The question was something so absurd she never should've cared about the answer, except... now it was her life. Stepping into hers, it was clear Dust Storm hadn't involved an interior designer. Rather, it raised some doubts in her mind over whether or not he'd ever seen a child before.The room had very little floor space, but instead had three separate beds. One rested near the high ceiling, suspended on cinder blocks that…-

Jordan Little hacked and coughed, fighting the burning in his lungs that came from water swallowed where it shouldn't be. The body spat it back up well enough, but the danger was in the second half of that reflex, trying to take in more. He bit down hard, hard enough that he tasted coppery blood against his tongue.But it worked. Despite the strange numbness in his limbs, and the weight of fabric and gear trying to drag him down, he finally broke the surface of the water. He gasped, and allowed himself to…-

Ocellus couldn’t have said if she did the right thing. It didn’t help being able to sense the creatures that had thought of her with kindness turn to anger and disgust. They probably wouldn’t be able to look at her again without thinking of what they’d seen her do to Marie.Maybe her own friends wouldn’t forget either. Maybe they shouldn’t.Maybe she hadn’t saved all of Equestria this time, but that didn’t matter. She had saved a single life, and that was almost as important. What would…-

The next few hours were a blur to Hayden. A blur of panicked nobles, of shouting voices and rushing guards. Though the meeting that followed between them and the city lord was private, somehow the news seemed to be spreading through Icefalls. There was already a mob of terrified citizens at the fortress gate by the time the meeting had been dismissed.Hayden now wore a loose military jacket that had belonged to the last general in the north. A tailor would make her a proper uniform, but for now it would…-
