On a quiet afternoon, the Princess ponders her celestial burden.

Some things are best left hidden from the eyes of the public. But they need to exist, for the good of everyone. And that means there needs to be someone who knows about them. Someone there to do what is necessary.

Trixie is on a mission to save all the universes. Technically speaking, she's the only pony who knows about it. She's also the one who warned herself about the danger, and the one helping herself. And she's also the danger. She is also very confused.

The Great and Powerful Trixie did not get lost. The streets of the Crystal Empire had been built by some incompetent who'd put a wall where the road should have been. But surely, the disembodied horn on the ground would know the right way to go.

The princess decides to pay a visit to the castle she once called home. When her student comes looking for her, she decides to open up to the younger pony, leading Twilight and Celestia to a conversation regarding the consequences of their lifespans.

Headless pony expresses his opinions through editorials in a newspaper despite being incapable of thought. Local purple alicorn princess remains greatly annoyed by the fact.

The recently crowned Princess Twilight travels to the minotaur lands on a diplomatic mission, accompanied by Fluttershy and Sassy Saddles. Things don't go as planned for all of them.

Sometimes change means leaving behind who you were.

Twilight didn't want things to go like this, but they did. She made her choices and decided who she wanted to be. But there's someone who thinks she should have chosen a different path, someone she knows very well.

It's a quiet winter morning at the Crystal Brighthouse, Zipp and Pipp are busy outside, Sunny is relaxing and watching the snow, and Izzy is about to make the morning a lot less quiet.

There's nothing to be afraid of in the darkness. No matter what the stories say.

Tempest was rather excited about the upcoming Hearth's Warming, one she would spend with the royal family of the Crystal Empire. She was a little less happy when Glitter Drops couldn't make it. She was mildly annoyed when she got to the flying whale.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash share a walk in the countryside on a warm midsummer day. No eldritch revelations on the true nature of the universe are had.

Rainbow Dash and Trixie get together, break up, and get together again.

Waking up from a nightmare is no pleasant experience. Not something Twilight hasn't experienced though. But sometimes, some dreams are different from the others. Some feel more real. But a dream is just a dream, right?
