      ~ Act I ~ 06 ~ The Breath of Truth ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic In retrospect, she probably shouldn’t have downed that glass of punch. “Twilight?” Cadance’s voice rang in the air as Rarity rubbed her hoof in circles on Twilight’s back. “Are you okay?” “I’m working on that,” replied Twilight, massaging her forehead and looking up. Gathered around a large table, her eyes scanned the plethora of strangers who awaited what she had to say, and… And it was a sobering thought, if she had to admit to anypony but herself and maybe Rarity; that out…

      maybe death is like falling asleep [timeline: time between TEL and TEK]

      maybe death is like falling asleep [timeline: time between TEL and TEK] Cover
      by Monochromatic Death was not like Twilight had expected it.  I suppose that’s because she couldn’t expect much at all, wandering her library, eyes blacker than a starless, moonless night.  This was, after all, what my beloved wanted. This was, after all, what was right, what she deserved. Peace, her endless thoughts so distant and quiet, everything mattering so, so very little.  High above, past bookcases gathering dust, hung a chandelier, illuminating the room. She stared up at it, and then…

      ~ Act II ~ 20 ~ The Wrangled Maze ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Sleep was neither kind nor unkind to Rarity. She managed to get almost four full hours of it, but her dreams were plagued with dragons, and princesses, and Spirits of Chaos. In one dream, she was there with Twilight and her dragon friend during that ill-fated day. In another, she was chatting with Rainbow and Pinkie outside the Trader’s Exchange. But in the one that finally woke her, she found herself trying to go back home but painfully unable to locate the library. She spent the rest of the trip…

      Deadly and Beautiful

      Deadly and Beautiful Cover
      by Monochromatic It had all started with the unusual request of a Saddle Arabian dignitary. The political air between the two kingdoms had been tense as of late, and the Duke had come to prove that relationship between the kingdoms was as good as ever. His visit to the Kingdom had just ended, however, and now he and his servant stood in the throne room before the young alicorn Princess and her bodyguard, which is why— “Princess Twilight,” he’d began, a shining smile on his lips. “May I be so bold and make…

      ~ Interlude VII ~ A Vision II ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic Clink. Clink. Clink. Rarity sat alone inside Carousel Boutique’s kitchen, her spoon clinking against her cup as she stirred her warm tea. She took out the spoon, placed it to the side, and then lifted the cup, but before she could take a sip her body intervened. She coughed once, twice, thrice, and her hoof rose to her chest and rubbed in slow circles. When the coughing fit subsided, she finally lifted her cup and took her coveted sip, her eyes scanning the table and landing on a book. A…

      The Masquerade

      The Masquerade Cover
      by Monochromatic It was common knowledge to ponies from all around that Princess Rarity was one of the most sought after mares in the land. How many mares and stallions of noble houses had tried in vain to steal her heart and all that came with it? More than the maids, butlers, and servants of the castle could count or even remember when day after day, month after month, dignitaries from all over returned to their lands with their tails between their hindlegs. Nopony knew what made it so difficult to woo the…

      ~ Act II ~ 21 ~ The Checklist Conversation ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic An entire week went by before Twilight agreed to talk. An endless number of tasks kept appearing on the checklist, kept moving up the list of priorities, and Rarity allowed them to. It had been over a week, yes, but even so, she could still vividly picture the memories Twilight had inadvertently shared, as well as the fear and guilt that had accompanied them and briefly plagued Rarity. In that moment, Twilight Sparkle’s carefully constructed barriers had been ripped away, and it was only polite for…

      ~ Act I ~ 03 ~ The Questions in the Labyrinth ~ Cover
      by Monochromatic “Twilight, how are we supposed to live here?” “The princess will help me build a library here, Spike. I need to have my books nearby during my research if we want to find a weapon to stop him.” “But… how are we supposed to hide from him with a library here? He will find it! It isn’t as if we can build a secret library under the tree…” “…Spike, you just gave me a great idea…” The history of the Everfree Forest was shrouded in as much mystery as…
