Equipoise: In the Kingdom

by SamBlips
Civil war looms as the newly born but fledgling Equestrian Republic confronts a growing number of rebellious City States. The crisis threatens to tear friends and family apart. Twilight wonders if she can stop the war, let alone trust her friends...

About a decade has passed, Equestria experienced a great many changes that reshaped the continent. A brutal war between the Equestrian Kingdom and the de-facto Dragon Nation devastated the continent and the poor leadership by its ruler, Princess Celestia, eventually ended with her abdication following the war. A new Republic formed afterwards, one that divided power among regions and city states more evenly.

Even so, some are seeking to secede entirely from the fledgling and inexperienced Republic and fears of a Civil War, not seen in centuries, loom over the horizon.

Twilight Sparkle, Flurry Heart, and others are tasked with bringing the crisis to an end before it spirals out of control.

But it's not just the looming threat of war that weighs heavy on Twilight's mind but... a mysterious foe that haunts her dreams...


Hey, peeps. So, this is... my first fanfic since 2012 :twilightsheepish: Yup, 6 years... I had to overcome a lot of self-doubt and esteem issues. But if I ever wanted to get out of my creative and self-doubting funk, I best put out something regardless :pinkiehappy:

Would love to hear feedback on the story, writing, characters. It's an ongoing series and I have quite the free time (having done my military service), so expect more story and character goodness over time! :ajsmug:
