This story is a sequel to Glowing Embers
Sunset Shimmer had her chance to start over, but she threw it away to chase after old dreams. Now, though it's not a completely fresh start, she begins again. With a few willing to help, she makes her way through life and tries to make things better. Perhaps better than she once thought possible in this world.
This picks up right after the Fall Formal, and shows scenes in between movies and also Sunset's inner thoughts during the movies.
Part of the Cornerverse-MLP Universe
Part of the Rewritten Set for reasons that will be explained elsewhere.
Rated Teen for swearing and innuendo, along with a handful of darker moments, blood, and non-sexual nudity, but not enough that I can justify tagging it as such so the chapters will come with a warning.
