Adult Spike is trying to work out exactly how dragon magic works, and after he expresses frustration at not being able to use the only text ever written on it, his boyfriend decides to find it for him.
She smiles into the mirror, pleased with the dragon she sees. Once she tried to be as macho as she could, but that was a game. Now she can just be herself.
On her first day of classes at Celestia's School, Twilight learns that even a thoroughly conscientious student sometimes needs the space to just be herself. And that her closest of friends might just be able to help her find it.
What does it mean to be a deity? It's not all fun and games; with unlimited power comes all the weight of being a ruler, a leader, a god. Right? Unless you're a team of chaos gods, then it really IS all fun and games...
Discord decides to retire and a strange being not only took his place as the new God of Chaos, but choose Spike to be it's new protégé. The age of Discord has ended. Thus rises the dawn of Maelstrom.
That DOES IT! Spike has had enough. He won't deal with Twilight anymore. Not when she can get so mean and yell so loud. He'll go off somewhere else. Somewhere where he can be alone. Curled beneath a hill, he hears a gentle voice call for him.
The day after Twilight's inauguration, she doesn't wake up in Canterlot castle... but in a cage. On Earth. And the rest of her friends aren't much better off either. But can they find each other again, and figure out what the Celestia is going on?
She is the Dragonlord. Defender of the Dragonlands and its dragons, a commanding presence and respected leader. As Ember strives to give her dragons a place in the world, she will have to prove herself to be worthy of her title.
Spike will embark on an incredible adventure where he will meet new friends and do great deeds worthy of the hero of the Crystal Empire, so he will find his true purpose in life.
