This book will describe my experiences through out numerous battles in what is known today as the Great Equestrian War. All of these battles I experienced as an infantry officer serving the Solar Empire. Many of these notes were made directly after combat, so that you may all reflect on the worthwhile lessons from each particular operation. As per tradition, I will mark each as if it were directed to Princess Celestia herself - may peace be upon her. I guess in a way, it was my own way of coping with what I experienced on those harrowed days. Through out this book, you will hear the stories of young, impressionable pony youths of all races - capable of bearing arms by magic or other means, such as the battle-harness rifle system. We will focus upon the infantrypony who fought the bulk of this four and a half long war.

The following will be proof of the superior and tremendous strength of the Solar Empire's military, the combat powers of the infantry forces in the face of superior odds and equipment. Let this book be known for its true portrayal of Equestrian Solar superiority on the battlefield against all of our enemies. The superiority of myself, as the Junior Unicorn commander to my enemy counterpart. May this perpetuate the horrors of those bitter wartime years and allow me to express the experience gained from the great deprivations that came with bitter sacrifice to secure victory, even if short lived.

Heavily inspired crossover based on the works of Andrzej Sapkowski and CDProject Red.

Ages ago, the world was forever rewritten after the Conjunction of Spheres. An event that brought many beings into existence, but have also forced equine and other sentient species to live alongside the constant threat of monsters and magic. Gilroy of Gryphonstone was a young fledgling, taken from his home and forced to become part of the School of the Wolf. The Hexer Guild is comprised of nomadic, mutated monster slayers who live for no noble deed. Hexers live for their profession, that is - to kill monsters for money. Gilroy travels through the realm of Te'mareia and its many neighbors, a continent often besieged by the threat of war, famine and of course monsters.

"The Hexer" is a compilation of short stories, all following the vagabond Gilroy as he encounters the many benefits and consequences of his trade.

Sunset Shimmer made the mistake of playing with things not even Celestia could truly understand. Upon moving through the mirror and into another world - she has compromised the very existence of her human doppelganger, who she has replaced entirely. Living a life far different, but also eerily familiar - Sunset is haunted by her own personal demons and seeks redemption one day at a time. This proves difficult, when she begins to have strange visions of mythical beings that dwell between the two realms, preying on those that wish to travel between the different planes. Pursued by phantom riders in her dreams and morally pummeled by the struggles of troubled teenhood - Sunset is about to discover something that will forever change the fate of two Equestrias.

The Castle of the Sun and Moon is a monument to the unification of the two tribes of unicorns - the sun and moon raisers. After being pushed out of their fatherland by the Windigos, civilization have begun to appear in the Everfree - at the cost of the indigenous Elven race of Deers, who are said to have cursed the land by opening a portal to another sphere of existence known as Tartarus, where various creatures of all forms of magic and mutation are unleashed to remove the intruders of the forest. A particularly strange beast known as a Draconequus lurks among the gardens near the temple, complicating the otherwise simple life of a young Sun Raising monk - soon to grow and inherit the castle in place of her father and mother, alongside her sister Luna. Meanwhile, Luna's own upbringing is drastically changed due to her friendship with a young Jarl from Snowreach named Sombra, a land in the tundra that borders the home of the Windigo.

Through out this journey, we discover their life before they unlocked the strange Alicorn mutation and long before they reigned as princesses over the land. An epic retelling of the origins of Equestria's goddesses of the Sun and Moon with inspiration from Eastern European folklore and history. A tale of magic, political scandal and love in the most unlikely places. The two sisters are forced into a world of kings and magical tyrants, unknowing of their importance for the future of Equestria.

A "novelization" of sorts, of a long running role play with my dear friend Ravenpuff. Who also did the sketches that are in the cover photo. It starts out rather innocent, but do not shun away everything just yet - the story involves political conflict and in later chapters to come, the passion of lovers as they come of age. Discord and Celestia, as well as Luna and Sombra fans will rejoice!
