The Twilight of the Crystal Heart

by WanderingPony
Princess Twilight is gone and magic fades, but friendship is the only power that can save the world. As the heroes of Equestria go on trial, will they find the path of hope, or lose their way to deception??

The follow-up to Night of a Broken Heart. Twilight Sparkle has been reduced to dust from a ritual gone horribly wrong, and Equestria's highest nobles demand justice for the crimes of the Mane 6, a scandal that threatens to drag down even the Royal Sisters. Will changeling trickery, the malice of Blueblood, and a student-gone-wrong deliver the final blow to end Harmony?

Or regardless of who wins, will there be an Equestria left to rule?

(AU set after the end of Season 3- borrows happily from the worlds of Final Fantasy)
