Trixie has returned with the Alicorn Amulet, enslaving the town's populace to work on a strange network of tunnels beneath Ponyville. With the Elements of Harmony captured, a small, unlikely group of heroes will rise. But is everything all that it seems here? Or does the magician have even more tricks up her sleeves than anypony can guess?
Warning! Journal and comments may contain spoilers! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DON'T READ EITHER UNTIL YOU'VE READ THE FIC!
Authors note: In case you didn't figure it out from that last sentence, there's a few twists near the end that might surprise you. So for God's sake, don't dislike because you don't like evil Trixie stories. If you're gonna dislike, please post a reason. I'm sorry for ranting like this, but that's exactly what happened last time I tried to post this story, so I have it up on my DA now as well.
Set in the same universe as my other fic, "The Chronicles of Swarm," though reading that isn't necessary for this.
