Sunny’s lantern goes missing again, and this time it’s not Misty behind it. Sunny is left broken, confusing the others until she explains the lantern’s importance to her. This leads to the others talking about objects important to them.

This story is a sequel to A Cold and Steamy Night

Note : You do not have to read the previous stories to enjoy this one but it will make the read much more fun...I promise.

Venti Anemo Breeze is Queen Haven's most elite guard. Which is why she sent him to protect Princess Zipp. I mean it is not like Queen Haven has ulterior motives...right ? Maybe she's bored. Being a queen of a kingdom can get boring.

Izzy always goes out of her way to show that there is some colour to be found in Bridlewood. However, none of the other unicorns seems to share the same enthusiasm. However, one lonely cold night, Izzy finds something blowing in the wind that gives her hope in something.

Sunny and Hitch- Hitched.

On the dock of a reformed Maretime Bay, Sunny proposes to an emotional Hitch.

He's become a better pony because of her, and wishes to express his gratitude back at the lighthouse.

(Plus some navigation of the law and love when it comes to taking your horse spouse's last name.)

"Misty is tired of being incompetent at villainy, so, in a desperate bid to impress Opaline, she seeks tutoring from a professional, artsy delinquent to learn how to be a proper miscreant. Things don't exactly go to plan, however."

Disclaimer: This story takes place midway through the events of Make Your Mark chapter 4 and, as such, it contains some tiny spoilers.

I wrote this little one-shot in a single sleepless night, so I apologize if the quality is unsatisfactory.

One day, Izzy strolls into the Crystal Brighthouse with a mud-covered... thing. Neither she nor her friends know quite what it is, but she is determined to find out. As such, she gets to work on the long, arduous process of restoring the unknown thingamajig. Heck, she might even succeed!

And her friends might regret letting her.

One cloudy evening in rural Virginia, a pony and a human's paths meet on a backroad, will Matt Fredrick help Misty Brightdawn get used to being in a new world and help her get home? Or will all hell break loose? Maybe we'll find out as the story progresses.

Sleep usually meant a lot of things;

Sleep is what helps one regenerate lost energy. Sleep can relieve stress, letting the body unwind and go into a maximum level of relaxation. 

But sometimes, sleep could encourage the opposite. In some unfortunate cases, sleep can bring unsettling events. 

Nightmares. 

When experiencing these, one can feel helpless, stressed, and have a loss of control in the situation that they are in. This eventually leads to the body forcing the individual to wake up after a certain level of stress is brought on to them. 

For Zipp, it has continued to haunt her. 

Frustrated, and exhausted, Zipp has no choice but to hope that her dreams fade away.

I’m Princess Pipp Petals. And this is my dark teenage past that I’ve never told anypony about.

Until today.

I admit it. I’m a…

Legend has it that centuries ago, before Zephyr Heights existed, there was another desert town in the foothills, named Zephyr. It burned down long ago.

A companion, but by no means a prequel/sequel, to this story. My entry to 2023 Iron Author, with some edits.
