Chance finished her story about the time when the orderlies took her half-eaten soup away, much to her relief. It wasn't as though the smell was doing anything other then make her vaguely sick, anyway. "You know the rest."Twilight nodded. "I think I may be able to get them to suspend treatment for a day. Long enough to see if it does improve, like you said. But..." She sighed. "If I do that, it's going to make life difficult on us both for the next few days.""Difficult on... both of us? Are you gonna get…-

Sunset did not dream, not exactly. What Sunset did see she had great difficulty even classifying into the world she knew. It wasn’t a dream, and yet she wasn’t quite awake. Something moved around her in an indeterminate gray space without end or beginning.Could this be the Void Starswirl had spoken of in his treatise on the intersection of related worlds? She couldn’t ask any of the natives, because she couldn’t ever see them. Perception would come as a general sense of observation, but by the time…-

It wasn’t going to be an easy trip. He knew the path he’d chosen, and he began making his way back, though with such a heavy creature in his arms, he had far less dexterity. He wouldn’t be climbing anything with it, that was for sure.No, with her. She sounded like a her when she made her not-quite-talking noises, and his instinct felt right. Female horse-monster baby thing.Eventually he reached the edge of a rocky slope, leading back down into the forest proper. He didn’t recognize any of the…-

It took over a year to prepare. Celestia did indeed have excellent contacts—engineers and contractors and many other things. They weren’t just skilled in the right kinds of construction, but also in doing it without getting noticed. They got the materials under the guise of other buildings elsewhere, while actually ordering far more than they needed. Those structures would be sold to cover much of the cost, while the excess would be gradually, deftly moved up north. So far north that there were no…-

Jackie could never figure out why Alicorns liked towers so much. They were already taller than other ponies, and more powerful, did they have to lord over them?Granted, in Mundus, she supposed that everyone lived in towers, they were just towers with their own ecosystems and climate. Naturally the Alicorns lived in the tallest of these, or at least their official residences were there. What most of them did with their time, Jackie didn’t know or care. Every immortal had their hobbies, or else they…-

If Iron Quill was the kind of general he’d copied stories about in the scrolls of ancient history, he probably would’ve flown proudly through the camp then, uniting the surviving companies and making some decisive orders that would save the army. Unfortunately for Nightmare Moon, unfortunately for their chances of freeing Equestria from the tyrant and getting their revenge, he wasn’t a legendary general.Iron Quill flew straight back to the place he’d come from—the stockpile.Despite the disaster…-

To say the meeting had not gone well would be a bit of an understatement. The lords of all the great clans had been there, obeying his call. He had guessed that at least some of them would be unhappy about the promise he had made on their behalf—he had not expected an actual challenge to his authority.But just because it wasn’t expected didn’t mean Emperor Renault wasn’t ready for it. Of all the birds who might defy him, he had even expected it to be Lord Gabriel of house Vengeance. It could only…-

The elevator rose slowly through Concord Castle, its crystals humming steadily under them. Max’s steel cage took up most of the elevator now, with half a dozen Royal Guards occupying the rest. Star Orchid had to cram in near the front, close enough that if the diamond dog really wanted to, he could probably reach out and attack her. He didn’t, though. His anger had burned itself out now, and he sat still in the center of his cage.“Not so angry now that you know where you’re going,” a guard…-

Jackie was bored.Even as she realized this, there was something in her that rebelled at the thought. Here she was, among the first human travelers to an alien universe. She was one of the first to have befriended one of the aliens, and even had one of their bodies. How could she be bored?All around her, two camps were rising. Across an invisible gulf were the people she had wanted to rejoin for her whole life—the people to whom she was probably just a vanishing statistic in the casualties of war. But she…-

Every one of Flynn’s worst fears was confirmed. It wasn’t just that things at the hospice changed—things at the hospice were always changing. It was, rather, that everything changed. His friends still visited him, helped push his wheelchair around the grounds on days he could leave his bed. They still played the same handful of board games together every night.Still the arrival of Ponypads had brought change, and even with his hatred of Equestria and those who lived there, Flynn couldn’t ignore it.…-
