This story is a sequel to Crystal Note - Welcome to Sweet Apple Acres!

After vanishing from a curse for more than 1000 years, little is known about the Crystal Empire and its inhabitants. Especially the final years of King Sombra's rule remain shrouded by mystery. Even to the crystal ponies themselves as their memories remain effected by the tyrant King's dark magic.

Now the Crystal Empire has returned and King Sombra has been defeated, but the aftermaths of his cruelty still linger within his former subjects.

One crystal pony begins travelling through Equestria to learn about her past and finds friends along the way. Will revealing her past help her understand more of herself and find a place in this new future?

During her travels all over Equestria, Crystal Note runs into all kinds of ponies. Some of those ponies grew into friends, a few even turn into family.
However, each new travel means leaving those friends. Thankfully, there are ways to stay in touch nonetheless.

These are the letters Crystal Note sent and received during her travels, from finding a place where she belongs through her years as a travelling musician and after.

Welcome to this little side story from the Crystal Note AU. These stories are connected to the main story, but not necessary to fully understand the main stories.

Most likely, this is going to be a place for exposition dumps and little ideas that didn't fit well into any of the bigger stories.

There will be infrequent updates to this and probably a lot of jumps in time between the chapters. I'll try to keep things in order if possible.

If you have any feedback, questions, ideas or requests, I'd be happy to hear them!
