This story is a sequel to The Adventures of Flare Brimstone

This takes place immediately after chapter 11 of The Adventures of Flare Brimstone and serves as the official, direct sequel.

Far beyond the verge of stars and further still, a portal seldom forms agape. A large rock, a meteor, hurls to the world of Equestria, amidst a star shower. The blistering rock crashes on the plains and caught the attention of Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, who investigates the fallen meteor.

What they uncover will shock them, and when they understand what it is and why will astonish the celestial sisters.

Two strangers have a late night conversation about sobriety.

This story is a sequel to Interview with a Batpony

Many months have passed since Twilight Sparkle, now crowned Princess of Equestria, managed to conduct an interview with Midnight Wind, an amiable batpony that came to stay in Ponyville. She gained incredible answers, yet emerged with a lot of questions still. Now, as another meeting is set, she desires to know even more about his species.

But some tapes are never meant to be shared with the public...

Parents tell their foals that they can be anything that they want.
For me, however, it's a bit more literal.
At least it would be if my parents had said that.
Or if I knew them at all!
So what do you do when you can become anypony?
You become a spy, of course.

BEWARE: SPOILERS IN THE COMMENTS

Everything was so confusing when I woke up in that forest all alone.

I don’t remember who I used to be, where I come from, or even my real name. I don’t know what happened to me, but I guess I’m gonna have to work with what I’ve got in order to live my life.

But hey, at least I’ve got my friends to help me start anew.

My name is Neon, and this is my life as a bat pony.

Blue Skies is a weather factory operator with a deep love for painting. Sunup Howdy, on the other hoof, is a bat pony doctor that exclusively works nights at the Chestnut Falls General Hospital. While Blue might find the bat stallion annoying, he could put up with him as long as it meant getting to rent a cheap room… at least until his career as a painter had truly taken flight.

After a factory accident, however, Blue Skies finds himself grounded and distraught. And to make matters worse, Sunup has specifically requested to be the doctor assigned to watch over his recovery.

But the bat stallion may have bitten off more than he could chew, as what was supposed to just be a chance to bother his friend quickly turned into something… special.

Commissioned through Discord, it was a pleasure writing for you and I'm glad my work could meet your expectations.

"In the beginning, there was nothing but all encompassing darkness that claimed all of existence within the void.
Yet even in this darkness, there was light.
A single speck of light that defied the shadows and slowly grew to encompass the known universe, bringing light to a once dark and dreary realm.
The being had wrested control from the void, yet it was not content.
With its power, it created the stars and planets that dot the seemingly infinite expanse of the universe.
This, was how the universe had truly come to be."
Creation of the universe according to the Church of Primis
Long ago, before the times of the princess's, the world stood divided. The father of the universe saw the hatred between the races of the planet, and sought to rectify his mistake of abandoning his creation, choosing to live amongst them once more.
This is where our story begins.
