This story is a sequel to A Unicorn and an Alicorn Walk Into a Library
Lyra Heartstrings has grown. Years of work improving herself and helping those around her improve themselves has granted her mastery of many things, but will it be enough to hold the world together during the coming trials?

Another story in this amazing AU? Count me in!
Woo! And almost done with reread so I can get to new story this week.
Is this story related to the story Background Pony in any way?
11887270 No, apart from having Lyra in it.
Let me just Favourite and upvote this,
i have to go to bed because i have to work in . . not enough hours though, so reading will have to come later <.<
Not even going to read first, liked and subscribed, let's goooo!
Edit:
You know, that bit about destiny-weight should be scienced! But surely exerting a slow build of pressure would be difficult to detect. They'll need something to make a little... bounce? A careful splash perhaps?
To Pharynx: now that the anti-magical throne is no longer cancelling magic, have you found any "confiscated" relics that are doing weird things?
Lyra, i get the resistance, but i'm curious about the particular reasoning behind refusing coronation? I'd wager it's quite insightful.
*Ask a Question* So Lyra, since you have become an Alicorn, how many ponies or other creatures have bowed to you and called you a Princess?
So far as the next series of Lyra it has been fun to read. Especially after we've dealt with the 2nd Chrysalis invasion. I hope we the fans will get regularly updates to this story.

You as the writer only have yourself to blame for being so successful. And you didn't answer the questions.

*stares off into the distance as the universe begins to collapse into a single point*
"I am a song"
Alicorn blindness (for ponies) is more of a size question. Twilight, for most of her alicorn run, was 'normally' sized and rarely had her wings noticeable enough to catch the eye (or if they were, then her horn wasn't). Lyra is still normal-size (or is she when in uniform?), maybe on large size of normal but not (yet) in Cadence/Luna size ...
11887426 Careful, or you'll have Twilight and Lyra dragging out their numerous sociology papers on Alicorn Blindness.
I buss
Gah, now I want some curry too : )
Sounds interresting. thought tow questions.
Is it neccesarry to read the prequeals before this?
Am I correct, when I say the tags wwill be updated as teh story continues?
11887579
There is about 700k words before this. Most of that is character development and changes to how things happened in Equestria (see the AU tag).

It's a new life for Lyra Heartstrings, a new set of responsibilities, and a new princess to serve. Now she just needs to survive Ponyville to fully enjoy this new future.I doubt it. Lyra is the main focus for this one, and her life is nothing if not an adventure.

Looks like I have enough to read then on Sunday, while beeing stuck in a train for around ten hours.
"Imagine a bowling ball on a rubber sheet..."
"Shouldn't Discord weigh one Discord?"
"Oh, that's the one weight he'll never have."
The second one's far trickier once you've learned the first one.
Hmm. That may answer my earlier question about Lightning Dust. We'll see in time.
Eagerly looking forward to the minticorn continuing to wreak positive havoc on Equestria.
This is a great start to the next story in the series. Twilight will be most interested in Coriander Cumin's reaction to Lyra since he doesn't seem to suffer from Alicorn blindness.
You know, from the title and the cover art, I thought at first this must have had some relation to Background Pony by Shortskirtsandexplosions.
Ah well! Added the first one to my Read-it-later.
11887708
Glad someone caught that. Lyra was using the common layman description of how spacetime warps.
It's why null-magic areas always sting unicorns the most.
Hehehehe and of course they'd have to find the exception to the rule about Alicorn Blindness
Caught up! Woo! ... caught up, now what...
What color are Lyra's wings? I see the preview with green wings that match her coat. In previous stories they were a golden color when she could still hide them. Wasn't sure what they solidified in to.
11889172 Now they're just wings—normal feathery wings.
ARG. Missed the story going up. Hold, on, read, read, read.
Yaay.
Caught up.
Has anyone asked yet how big a shield Lyra would have to make to slice out enough rock under Sweetie when she is grounded to be able to teleport her?
Celestia is grounded in the Sun, Luna is grounded in the Moon, Discord is grounded in Reality, and Pinkie is NAN?
Question to Lyra: Have you thought about your possible agelessness and it's consequences?
During wedding you promised to be there for each other forever. Maybe magic would help to keep this oath. Or maybe Tufts have answers.
Ah, Background Pony. The first story on FIMFiction I gave up on.
11892515 Nice to know. This isn't that and has nothing to do with that. It's the next story in a series that's over 700k words long right now.
Oh, and it has the shid in it.
11892547
Yes, I know this story has nothing to do with that one. I'm just sharing my recollections from more than 10 years ago.
11892771 Ah. No probs. There have been a few folks asking me if this is a sequel to 'Skirts' story or something. I hope you have a great day!
And now I've run out of story to catch up with.
