This is also part 3 of Str8aura's Genetic Christmas. See this blog for more details.

This also also heavily draws on lore from the IDW MLP comic Nightmare Knights, which I would highly recommend to anyone. You shouldn't be too confused if you haven't read it; just know that I'm not pulling ALL of this out my ass. Only most of it.

The spirit of Hearthswarming is something all ponies enjoy, from the match girls on the street to the alternate Celestias all throughout the Multiverse.

A spiritual, Christmas themed successor to Daybreakup and Those. No knowledge of either story is required for this one.

And yes, a Daybreakup finale is still in the works.
