To celebrate the completion of the largest ship ever built, it sails on its maiden voyage from Baltimare to Trottingham on a romantic cruise, with Twilight and her friends onboard.

But something happens as soon as the S.S. Ocean’s Embrace sails to open water. Very soon the ponies get tied up in a number of unexpected, strange, beautiful, hilarious, exciting, or fantastical relationships. All of them very cliché, but to the ponies, very real as well. Is there something like too much love in the air? Does it have anything to do with the fact that today is Hearts and Hooves Day?

Massive thanks to Wireframe for co-editing, proofreading, and commenting. Without your invaluable advice, this story would not have come to life on paper. You’re the best editor—and friend—an author could ever wish for.

Every original character has a background story, and you’re about to read mine. For years and years I’ve tried to postpone writing this tale, for fear of diving up traumatic experiences and unpleasant memories. Yet one cold winter day, my brother enters my little cabin in the woods, and soon enough I find myself sitting behind my typewriter writing down what happened to me and him from beginning till end. I still don’t believe how I did that.

Indeed, my story is not a happy fairy tale where everything is bathed in sunshine and unicorns dance on the proverbial rainbows. In the beginning it does look like that, with my brother and I, our mother, the great herd of elks, deer, and reindeer, and the guarding of the Shimmering Eye making up the happiest part of my life. But very soon a game of predator and prey is played on a snowy and dark winter plain. After that, I end up in a very peculiar village, where I discover my true talent thanks to a very special somepony. Then love somehow wriggles itself into my life, followed closely by deceit. Believe me when I say the two go hoof in hoof. Next, I find myself abducted to another village, even stranger than the first, where I am forced to use my talents for a dictator’s regime. And what happens next…? You’ll have to discover that as you read.

Every story has a sliver of the writer’s soul in it, and in this story, I practically poured all of my soul. I hope it will help you to get to know me and my brother better. And if that is not your goal, then I hope it will teach you something. And if that too, is not your goal, then let me and my brother’s (mis)adventures at least entertain you from beginning till end. Read on, and discover a story about brothers and antlers.

Two worlds, Equestria and Earth, become more and more alike. Earth has been destroyed by nuclear bombs, making life in the radiation-filled dystopia a struggle. But life in Equestria too, becomes bleak and terrifying, as the changelings launch a new invasion, and finally succeed in bringing Equestria to its knees.

The elements of harmony have been lost and scattered, teleported to a new and horrible world. Together, Twilight and her friends have to tread the radioactive face of Earth to find the elements that have been lost and defeat Queen Chrysalis. Luckily--or unluckily-- they receive help from a very strange pony, a pony who came from Equestria, but has been shaped to fight in the brutal war on earth that still goes on to this very day. His name is Triggerhoof.

Hello, dear reader. It’s me, Sweet Tooth, the writer. I guess writing three bestseller novels makes me a ‘famous’ writer. But before all this attention and success, I struggled with myself—a lot. I went on a crusade to find my place in Equestria, but encountered many pitfalls. In the end, I couldn’t even climb out of the pitfalls myself, and almost died a lonely and unhappy death. But then I met an extraordinary pony, who taught me the most valuable lesson of my life. This is his story as much as mine.

This is a story worth telling.
