Note: the story is currently (slowly) undergoing revision.

Chrysalis lost everything. Her hive, her friends, her life all gone because of her own stupidity. Now she's alone, wounded in the Everfree Forest. But, at the brink of death, when she was about to give up and surrender to the dead's darkness, a small light appeared.

Can Nyx, an extraordinary filly alicorn, help the fallen queen to start a new life? Only time will tell.
