This story is a sequel to Rise of the Elements Part I: The Lost Element

Ancient beings of long since past are returning, but for good or ill? Where once the world made sense and peace flourished, will it all fall apart? Against the very tide of existence itself, who can stand against it? Perhaps when the powers that be assemble, peace will prevail...or it will fall forever.

A/N: A note to my readers: this is technically a harem fic, but there will be NO lemons in it. The story will instead focus on the connections the characters share, as well as some other things later that I will leave to you to discover.

Rated T for violence, language, use of alcohol, and some mild suggestive references.

When a blizzard descended upon the Crystal Empire, everypony felt their fear of the unknown return. Twilight and her friends were instantly on the next train, and found the Crystal Empire almost as if it had never been saved in the first place. Fortunately, the crystal ponies were standing strong against the onslaught, and their city was not in danger.

That did not mean Twilight was not in her own danger, as she walked the short distance to the protected part of the capital.

This story is a sequel to A shadow of what I once was.

After being denied his reward of death, Sombra is resigned to study the Everfree magic and see if it could be useful in the future. But when a curse comes back to life after being banished, Sombra is forced into a situation he never wished for; confront his hidden desire for power, or be consumed by it.

Set 10 years after the brief escape of Tirek, Discord knows one last ploy is all that will be allowed him. Unleashing a villain long since defeated and forgotten, Discord sets in motion a series of events that'll either end with his victory... or his final curtain call. Since when was friendship supposed to last forever?

Given the successful befriending of Discord, Princess Celestia deems that no longer will villains be defeated but instead reformed. While most have the chance to submit willingly or continue to fight, King Sombra is given little option. Brought back from the dead and stripped of all his powers and strength, it's all become a game of futility. Now Sombra only wishes he could have stayed dead all along.

A collection of shorts detailing the first seven months of Sombra's and Steve's rather rocky relationship. Disregarding the first few chapters, this one will be a lot more slice of life than the original story.

Update: labelled as complete. Honestly can't see myself adding anymore chapters in the near future.

This story is a sequel to Sombra The Highly Unmotivated

Over a year ago, Twilight Sparkle, Discord and four million other ponies escaped from an alternate Equestria on the verge of collapse, hoping to start a new life on Earth.

If only someone had warned drunken human Arthur Mitchell about the dangers of insulting ponies in front of Discord.

Can two groups of blank flanks get along long enough for all of them to succeed? Or will Sombra's need for revenge instead lead all of Ponyville to ruin?
