A bold decision by Princess Celestia in response to the changeling attack has Pinkie Pie monitoring the entire town of Ponyville via hidden cameras. But the cameras don't yield fast enough results for Pinkie Pie, so she begins to take things into her own hooves. What she finds changes her life, and begins a chain of events historians will refer to as: "The Fall".

Note: this is tagged pretty harshly but there isn't gore and dark right away. Eventually, though, it gets dark and gory. Characters are also tagged with "eventual" roles. Each chapter title refers to a Poets of the Fall song, which inspired the fic. Art by Mr.Woo.
