Chrysalis is beaten. Her invasion of Canterlot? Failed. Her hive? Scattered to the winds. The future of her people? Bleak, grim, and hopeless. But change is in the air, and something is calling Chrysalis north, to the birthplace of the changelings.
Ponies at school say that there's a cave full of treasure close by. All you have to do is go in and get it. And make sure the Bug Queen doesn't catch you while inside.
Chrysalis is dying and she has but one thought on her mind. When she is gone from the world, who will care for the one thing in the world she values above life itself?
Chrysalis has never before heard of this "Hearth's Warming Eve" holiday, but when she finally does learn of it, she realizes what she must do: steal it. Steal it all.
Another day, another failed assault on Equestria. Now poor Chitin has to report to Chrysalis and be the bearer of bad news. Such things had the tendency to be unhealthy if one wasn't lucky. Chitin didn't feel lucky at all.
The good news: having her false ID summoned for jury duty means Chrysalis' disguise is perfect. The bad: running out on it would break her cover. (Why do queens always wind up with the hard decisions?)
Princess Celestia has something important to tell Princess Cadance on the cusp of her marriage to Shining Armor, which is kind of too bad, considering.
It was bad enough when Twilight foiled Chrysalis' Canterlot Wedding by showing up with the the real Princess Cadence. It was worse when Shining Armor showed up too.
Filly Twilight is teleported far, far away from Celestia. Now Chrysalis has her, and she's fully intent on keeping her. But maybe the powerful, loving filly is more than Chrysalis expected?
Even bug queens need to eat, and Chrysalis has gone without for far too long. What better place to fill up than Manehattan, the City that Never Sleeps Standing Up, where an old acquaintance has no idea that she's going to be having a dinner guest...
When plotting revenge, it is good to find yourself a willing and useful accomplice among your enemies. And Queen Chrysalis is... lucky to meet a professional...?
After Twilight receives a letter saying that Queen Chrysalis is the guest of honor in the Crystal Empire's Grand Banquet, she becomes suspicious and attends in order to thwart any plans the changelings may be hatching.
For a changeling like Iqqel, the Ceremony of Names is what getting a cutie mark is for a pony. It has a lot to do with your destiny and who you are meant to become. Iqqel dared to refuse all that and chose to shape her own future.
"Dear Princess Celestia, as your (former) most faithful student, I feel I have to warn you that this is probably a trap. Chrysalis cannot possibly be serious about this. Why would anyone, much less her, want to shoot a documentary on us?"
An adolescent and starving Changeling Queen-To-Be has captured Princess-to-be Cadence , and on the night she was supposed to start foalsitting, too. Cadence refuses to feed her love until the job is done. Chrysalis knows what she needs to do.
Having managed to escape from her prison, Chrysalis decided to follow the advice one of Celestia's guards had given her and booked an appointment with a therapist.
In one last ditch effort to take over Equestria, Queen Chrysalis makes copies of herself using the Mirror Pool. Unfortunately, even copies of the Queen don't like being bossed around.
