This story is a sequel to Sick Little Ponies (And One Dragon)

Everypony gets sick sometimes. A number will try to ignore it. Some fight through it, even when they shouldn't. Others make sure they succumb as quickly as possible, and that everypony around them knows it. One or two might refuse to admit anything's wrong at all. But eventually, everypony will fall ill.

Alicorns. Activists. Ordinary citizens. And possibly a minotaur.

It's time to bring in some new patients.

Now with author Patreon and Ko-Fi pages.

(While this is listed as a sequel, the main connection to the original is in theme. No knowledge of the earlier stories is required.)

Towers from unknown origins have appeared in Equestria and only those who can enter it are chosen by the towers. Not even our heroes can enter it nor can Discord (Now there's a good thing about them). Twilight and her friends are doing their best to recruit those who can enter the tower to solve its purpose. While Twilight and her friends try to recruit awakened creatures, a centaur appeared in the tower and is growing his own food as the Tower Farmer.

I had bad friends once, a long time ago. It was okay that they were bad friends. I was bad, too.

They're long gone now, though.

As a pony whose bakery compared to others has less fame, less recognition and even less passers-by who visit, this baker strives to make the most of it whilst making important reflections on what makes a bakery famous, what the customers want and what he wants to achieve as a baker himself. Only within those ponderings may he find solitude and growth, establishing new connections with a renewed appreciation for the help, support and views of his customers.

Cleaning up is an essential part of every party, as essential as setting it up, sending out the invites, baking a cake and making sure the guests are having a super terrific time. Clean up is normal, clean up is natural.

Pinkie sometimes wishes cleaning up never had to happen.

(A small fic that I made after thinking more about Pinkie and her character potential)

❇️ Howdy, to everyone coming here since 2024. We started to write this fic in 2013, inspired by the concepts of immortality and using that to explore societal structures.

One of the biggest things to Us was the fact that (FiM season 3+ spoiler) We imagined Twilight as an alicorn who takes over for Celestia. Not long after starting this project, that happened in the show, and it blew out Our will to continue this.

We might someday return to this, especially now that it's been over 11 years. Our creativity is coming back and We're emotionally in the right space to pick this up.

As of 2024-06-17, however, everything about this story and the description below is untouched from how it was back when We were first writing this.. Consider this an archive of how it was, until and unless We decide to start writing again.

Chapter 1 ("Alicorns") remains the only completed chapter. The entire rest of the story is unfinished, so only Chapter 1 is published here. You may act as a prereader for the rest of the story by viewing the Google Drive link below, but do know that only what's published here is considered "done".

[TO PREREADERS: The full story outline and meta information, as well as other notes, are available on Google Drive]

This is not a story for the weak-minded, nor the impatient, nor those whom expect a single theme or mood. This is not a story of right and wrong, nor of victory and tragedy, though it does have these. This is not a story of a single pony, nor is it a story of many.

This is a story passed down through only two generations, spanning uncountable lifetimes. This story is about a concept which is much too vast to ever comprehend, and is fully known in the hearts of every Equestrian.

This is the story of the love of an alicorn.
