(an old short quest from years ago. Most prompts hav been removed, but I might have missed some)
-

3.
The noise of you sipping your tea echoes through the empty study. Normally, you’d have gladly accompanied the hot drink with a piece of cake, but given the nature of your current task, you’re simply not in the mood for sweets.
-
4.
-
5.
Three candles light the desk, which is otherwise completely hidden under piles of old books you’ve been researching for weeks now. Inside, strange circles, eerie illustrations and the description of dark rituals, promising tremendous powers to their user in exchange of an unspeakable price.
-
6.
-
7.
Doubt crawls at the back of your mind. One more time, the apparent absurdity of the situation tests your resolve. How did Celestia, beloved ruler of Equestria and teacher of the princess of friendship, came to secretly study these old tomes of forbidden knowledge? What on Equestria has brought her to inquire about the dark and powerful spells, more suited to the power-hungry maniacs Twilight and her friends have come to fight on a regular basis?
-
8.
-
9.
You shiver, and let out a feverish sigh.
-
10.
-
11.
Yes, it’s probably fear…
-
12.
-
13.
When the return of your sister as Nightmare Moon became imminent, you decided to let your faithful student handle the matter. Confident that the magic of friendship and the elements of harmony would bring her victory, you trusted her. And despite your high-stake bet, you weren’t disappointed, and even found back your sister. For a brief moment, you imagined this would be the start of an area of bliss, with nothing but a clear sky for the future of the kingdom.
-
14.
Oh, how wrong you were…
-
15.
-
16.
Chrysalis, Discord, Tirek, Sombra, Chrysalis again… A preposterous number of world threatening entities arose in a ridiculously short time. Each time they were narrowly defeated by your student and her friends. Each time, Equestria was on the verge of destruction…
-
17.
Regularly witnessing impending doom upon all the ponies you swore to protect for over a millennium didn’t get you used to it, it was the opposite. Whenever, you told Twilight you trusted her and the power of friendship to triumph, you tried to reassure yourself as much, perhaps even more, than you ought to encourage your student.
-
18.
-
19.
And they just keep coming. And now you’re convinced they will never stop coming.
-
20.
You’re feeling closer and closer to actual paranoia. Wondering everyday what will the next threat be. Will the power of friendship triumph? Or this time, will evil prevail? These questions, they’ve made they imprint inside your head when you failed to protect anypony. Caught in vines, banished to Tartarus by Tirek, cocooned by the changeling queen, you’ve spend all these moment contemplating the pathetic end of a millennium-long lifetime of protecting your subjects, powerless, unable to save anypony.
-
21.
Twilight and Starlight’s adventure in time confirmed your fears. If it wasn’t for your student and her friends, Equestria would be no more.
-
22.
-
23.
You would have failed to protect anything every single time.
-
24.
-
25.
You grit your teeth. You’ve made this conclusion before, but each time it hurts inside. Passing the future of Equestria to the next generation of ponies was something you’ve wished to achieve for a long time, but now that dark times come as often as the rain, you find yourself horrified to know Equestria is one friendship away from oblivion.
-
26.
-
27.
The reason you’re here, in this room, surrounded by occult volumes, is because you can’t stand it anymore. There’s got to be things you can do to protect Equestria! You need something else than the hope for the elements to defend Equestria against all the enemies to come!
-
28.
-
29.
Unfortunately, you’re no princess of friendship. You cannot hope to learn such ways to defend the kingdom so late in your existance. What you know is diplomacy, planning ahead and power. That’s how you ruled for so long, and how you intend to keep doing for still many years to come.
-
30.
-
31.
And against the threats which keep raining down on Equestria, what you need is more power.
-
32.
-
33.
These are the reasons which brought you on the hoofprints of many mad-ponies, browsing through the arcane world to acquire enough strength to defeat you enemies. And it is clear it’s the ramblings of these power-hungry ponies you’ve been reading so far.
-
34.
Sacrifices, vampirism and other unholy rituals were the bread and butter of the many volumes of the forbidden part of the library. You’ve increased the guard around here since then, as even though most of the knowledge here is fake or incomplete, a smart enough evil-doer could find all the tools he needs for his world-dominating schemes here.
-
35.
-
36.
But an evil-doer, you are not, yet power you seek too. So you’ve used your immense experience to cross the various sources and narrow down the mass of information into a few means to significantly enhance your magic power with minimal risk for everypony. The three choices before you are far from perfect, but in the array of dark spell and rituals you’ve skimmed through, you’ve concluded these are the less risky of the bunch.
-
37.
-
38.
First, you’ve come across the recipe of a potion which should give you what you seek. Its concoction is exceptionally complex, and requires dozens of rare and priceless ingredients. After studying the formula and using your own knowledge in alchemy, you’ve come to the conclusion that there’s a very high chance it will drastically and permanently increase your magical powers. A disturbing element though, is the tone in which the potion and its making was described. Not only was the author clearly looking for personal gain and profit, but each mention of the power the potion is supposed to gift was accompanied with lustful gibberish about the pleasures of flesh. You hope this is just the day-dreaming or a corrupted mind…
-
39.
-
40.
Second, you’ve found a spell which at first looked immensely promising to you. This spell was supposed to allow ponies to share their energy with a champion to fight in their name. The thought of your devoted subjects fighting as one thought your body to defend Equestria made your imagination race with glorious imagery, until you started deciphering the ritual to bind a pony to the champion. The ritual consists in nothing less than for the champion to get intimate with each pony they wish to bind with. The book even getting as far as to prescribe for the champion to receive the sexual fluids of the contractor directly on or in their body for the bond to work. On the good side, no pony’s sanity is at risk with this spell, but imagining yourself engaging in such activities with random subjects of Equestria… you’re not sure you’re ready for this…
-
41.
-
42.
Finally, thought the study of many animist tomes and spells, you’ve devised a ritual which should let you tap in a much greater proportion into the power of the sun itself. Your subjects often think you control the sun, while actually the link you have with the star of the day merely allows you to suggest it its course. The celestial body itself is an impossibly huge mass of energy, and only a tiny fragment of it would make a huge difference if you could control it. However, the sun has a will of its own. It is prideful, selfish and arrogant. No other star is allowed to shine in the sky while the sun runs its course, and you fear your own personality might be at right if you go down this path. A shiver crawls down your back, as the distant, maniacal laugh of the nightmarish version of yourself you saw in your dreams echoes in your mind…
-
43.
-
44.
But yet you must choose. You’ve been restless for far too long, and you simply can’t remain a by-stander anymore. Besides, the elements of harmony do not deserve to face alone the many perils which threaten Equestria. That’s why you must be able to help them. And for that, you need power. And for power, you need to choose.
-
45.
-
46.
It’s been three days.
-
47.
For three days, through a rollercoaster of childish excitement and crushing self-doubt, you’ve been preparing in secret the spell to help you channel the power of the sun into you. You now stand alone at your balcony, where you’ll raise the sun in a minute.
-
48.
-
49.
You hope you’ve got everything right. You’ve checked each variable, verified each part of the spell over five times now, and yet you feel like making sure everything is ready once more. A small giggle escapes your lips, as your own attitude reminds yourself of your former student, who stumbled to put her papers together whenever she had a report to send you.
-
50.
-
51.
But the time for hesitation is over. It’s for Twilight you’ve got to make it through this, so you can protect her, and Equestria. With your magic, you reach for the solar star and start to pull in from behind the horizon. But unlike the other mornings, you also recite the prayers of power in your mind to make its might yours.
-
52.
-
53.
You can feel it. The amount of energy the star contains is beyond anything you can imagine, in comparison, your being feels like a speck on its surface. And yet you come closer to the giant. Your spell brings you so close… You can feel it pulsate like a living heart. You’re in awe. It’s under a new light you discover the star you’ve been raising for countless mornings, with no possible words to accurately describe the unimaginable power of the star you’re about to touch.
-
54.
Completing the spell, you reach out with your soul to take some of the power of the sun.
-
55.
-
56.
And immediately, you’re overwhelmed.
-
57.
-
58.
Your body collapses with a scream of pain, but the physical ache is nothing compared to the formidable strain on your mind.
-
59.
It feels like trying to take a sip in a torrent. The power of the sun is ready to wash away your memories and personality alike, and you cannot say what such formidable energy will do to you or your surroundings! You must stop it!
-
60.
But at the same time…
-
61.
-
62.
You feel you resolve thaw like snow under the summer sun. Isn’t this what you wished for? Isn’t this the power which will protect Equestria for the years, no, for the aeons to come?
-
63.
This is your last stand. You have an instant to gather enough resolve to fight for the integrity of your being and only borrow a small amount of energy from the star. If you don’t, you’ll embrace your fate, instantly getting infinitely more power than you could ever have dreamed of, and forget about the consequences.
-
64.
-
65.
-
66.
In an instant of eternity, you fight against the ocean of power engulfing you, resisting the indomitable current in the name of the Equestria you love. You’re no becoming a mindless vessel. You’re here to protect!
-
67.
-
68.
“Celestia!” You hear your sister’s voice and her rushed hoofsteps coming toward you. “What’s happening? I heard you screaming!”
-
69.
Your eyes flutter open as you come back to your senses. You’re still on the balcony, and the sun shines in the sky. Luna is next to you, looking even in your eyes with a puzzled expression. Wait, even with your eyes? While you’re lying?
-
70.
-
71.
Reflexively, you stand up. And only then you register the extend of the unexpected change your body has gone through. You’re considerably bigger than before, and Luna takes a step back, as she has to crane her neck to see the face of the huge alicorn in front of her. Where before she was only a head shorter than you, the tip of her horn could barely reach your chin now.
-
72.
-
73.
“S-sister?!” Luna exclaims with a mix of shock and awe “What has happened to you?”
-
74.
-
75.
-
76.
“Ah? Ahem…” Your mind races to find a possible lie to calm your sister “It’s alright… It’s just… a prank! From Discord. He surprised me. That’s why I screamed. But honestly, I don’t feel like this size will be much of a problem for today. I don’t have any appointment out of the castle, so I’ll deal with him later”
-
77.
-
78.
Indeed, you have prepared you schedule to get as much free time as possible to test your spell today. The castle should be able to function without your presence.
-
79.
-
80.
“Ah… That’s a relief. For a second I feared the worst.” A smile returns on your sister’s face, and she takes a playful tone. “So you don’t mind staying like this? Then you should make sure not to catch a cold up there!”
-
81.
“You little devil!” You ruffle your sister’s mane with a hoof in response, while you both exchange a chuckle. You’re now at the perfect height to do that.
-
82.
-
83.
After you sister has gone to bed, you decide it’s time to get to work. Aside from the physical change, there’s something else inside you. A flame has been lit, warming up your soul. You’re definitely feeling a little more ‘Homf’ in your magic, and the usual apprehension on the future you carried has been replaced with a desire to discover your new-found strength. Discretely, you exit the castle and fly to the Everfree, searching for something to test your new powers on. You eventually find a suitable target.
-
84.
-
85.
A lone cargodile is swimming at the surface of a swamp. Perfect! These monsters are usually very resistant, so you will be able to test your power on him. You land near the water, and a growl comes from the saurian who’s barely bigger than you as it starts to watch you with its green, silt eye.
-
86.
-
87.
Let’s see. In the past, blasting this thing with all your magic would probably have been enough to make it flee, but with no serious injuries. However, you’re starting to ask yourself if the poor think is gonna survive if you try the same thing now. Or maybe should you try another form of magic?
-
88.
You’re exited at all the possibilities.
-
89.
-
90.
-
91.
You do not need to harm the poor creature actually. To test your raw power, a big rock is fine too. There’s one just here which will do, so you steady your hooves and take your aim.
-
92.
-
93.
You coo in surprise as you feel the power of the sun course through you. While firing you magic had always felt like squeezing the energy out of your being, this time you whole body is set in a rejuvenating fire as every atom of your being seem to produce more and more magic. You effortlessly concentrate the power in your horn which starts to shine brighter and emit a menacing hissing sound. At that point, the small cragodile dives away, afraid of your obvious destructive power.
-
94.
-
95.
A wise move, as the blinding beam of energy which erupts from you horn makes the huge rock explode in a thunderous noise. You grin in awe as the small pebbles fall everywhere around you. And when the dust settles down, you see there’s almost nothing left of the boulder but a few half-melted stones.
-
96.
-
97.
You’ve done it. The might in your possession is now truly something to behold, and you feel ready to take on the world. You’re confident that whoever will stand in your way will end like that boulder, and that you’ll be able to protect all your devoted subjects.
-
98.
-
99.
And the best thing, is that you don’t feel like you were remotely close to your maximum power. There was so much, you just weren’t prepared to have so much magic at your disposal, and you marvel at the limitless possibilities in front of you.
-
100.
-
101.
-
102.
You think about trying your spell once again at sunset, but actually… You think you don’t need to.
-
103.
After a little introspection, you think you understand. Right now, you’ve extracted just a little more power from the sun, and thus you gained more might. And it’s probably going to be the same each time you use your magic.
-
104.
-
105.
Enthralled with your new discovery, you decide to visit Twilight where you can continue exploring this new strength.
-
106.
-
107.
You fly over the forest in a flash. The castle of your former pupil lies at the edge of Ponyville, so you do not see anypony on the way.
-
108.
You knock on the door of the crystal tree, and it’s when Twilight open that you come to realise… you’ve grown again. The poor little alicorn looks smaller than a filly to you now, barely coming up to the top of your legs, and you’re gonna make sure to duck if you don’t want to bang your head on the door.
-
109.
-
110.
“P-p-princess Celestia!” The purple alicorn exclaims in panic as she sees you. You’re not sure if it’s your size of your unexpected visit which is at fault here. But still, your former student manages to put up a tense grin on her face. “Uhm… w-wow! You’re looking more… imperial than usual, today!”
-
111.
-
112.
“Imperial?” You chuckle “Oh, Twilight, you really know your way with words!”
-
113.
-
114.
-
115.
Now princess of friendship, Twilight still acts like a little filly when you take her by surprise. You can’t resist teasing the little alicorn in front of you.
-
116.
-
117.
“My dear Twilight.” You have trouble hiding a mischievous smile under a façade of seriousness. “I’ve come to perform a surprise evaluation of your work as a princess.”
-
118.
The gasp and the look of terror on your former student’s face is priceless. The purple alicorn takes a little break to bite her lip, making sure this nightmare situation isn’t a trick of her sleeping brain. But the wince of pain of their face is as real as your imposing body.
-
119.
“A-a surprise evaluation? C-can I just prepare a tiny bit?” Even from your higher perspective, she’s visibly shaking. “I mean, o-of course! What do you want to see?” She grins tensely again.
-
120.
-
121.
“Right now? I think I’ve going to inspect Pinkie Pie’s bakery. She’s an element of harmony too after all!” You nod to yourself. A carving for some cake has taken a hold on you, and outside of the castle, only the pink pony can help you. “I’ll be heading for Sugar Cube Corner!”
-
122.
-
123.
The poor little alicorn seems lost, and her eyes flutter as she fails to process the absurdity of the situation.
-
124.
“B-b-but you’re… quite… more… er…” You have to stifle a chuckle as your former student fails to find a way around calling you big. But honestly, you’d almost take it as a compliment by now.
-
125.
“P-ponies might be… surprised at your sight. Even more so with your new… stature.” She eventually paraphrases.
-
126.
-
127.
“Isn’t it great?” You beam at Twilight “I always heard ponies were disappointed when they couldn’t see me through the crowd. Like this I shall leave nopony unhappy!”
-
128.
“Uhm… Y-yes. It sounds like a g-good idea.” She smiles back, incapable of contradicting you.
-
129.
“I’ll be going now.” You declare, and plant a massive boop on Twilight snoot with a hoof as big as her face.
-
130.
You then head toward the city, leaving a deeply confused princess of friendship at the door of her castle.
-
131.
-
132.
You were prepared for the looks. In all honesty, even without your size, ponies are often shocked to see their ruler at the corner of their usually quiet town. Well, quiet… Ponyville isn’t exactly quiet anymore, but the locals at still impressionable.
-
133.
And your current appearance surely is impressive. While most of your subjects usually manage to eventually muster a bow and a polite greeting at your sudden sight, the inhabitants of ponyville are dumbstruck at your sight at that moment, looking at you with gapping mouths, unable to do or say anything in the presence of your miraculous self.
-
134.
Not only does the admiration feels especially tasty today, but as a cherry on top, all the comical little accidents of ponies losing they concentration as their massive princess comes into view end up getting you in a stellar-good mood.
-
135.
-
136.
You arrive as Sugar Cube Corner, your mouth already watering at the sugary decoration of the shop, and that’s when you realise there was a little problem in your plan.
-
137.
While Twilight’s door was small, it was still a really large door by pony standard. But here you’re going to have to crawl. A really good thing you left your regila at home…
-
138.
-
139.
But the call of cake has to be satisfied. You crouch, and then make sure your horn gets inside first without getting stuck in the wooden floor or ceiling. Advancing like that forces you to crawl while looking at the ground until you’ve passed the wooden frame of the door.
-
140.
-
141.
You can finally raise up your head after that, and there you see your prize in a shrine of glass. Cakes, muffins, eclairs, cupcakes and other rainbow-coloured delicacies are within your sight, as well as a stupefied Pinkie Pie behind the counter.
-
142.
“Princess Celestia? *gasp*” Shock is immediately replaced by genuine joy and excitement of the pink pony’s face. “You should have told me you were coming! Are you here to celebrate your embiggenment?”
-
143.
“Yes.” You chuckle “Something like that. And for that I would like some… Oh…” You’re feeling a little limited all of a sudden. “H-hold on Pinkie Pie.”
-
144.
-
145.
You feel the red coming to your cheeks as you realise your behind is completely stuck in the door. Shifting from side to side does you know good, as you feel the wooden frame creak under the assault of your rump. You could easily just burst through the door, but that would be quite uncouth of you.
-
146.
-
147.
-
148.
“Ahem.” You calm yourself down “Pinkie Pie, I need you to prepare a little collation for me. I know your skills in bakery are legendary, and also that you will know how to satisfy a big hungry client.” You say with a wink.
-
149.
“Aya-aye, princess!” The pink pony salutes, determination on her face. “Prepare yourself for a royal treat, because I’m gonna throw in everything I got!”
-
150.
“Thank you. And please take it outside.” You ask.
-
151.
“I’m not letting you down princess! Now if you excuse me, there’s a ton of floor and sugar and butter and chocolate which need some serious baking right now!”
-
152.
-
153.
And on these words, the pink pony zooms toward the kitchen, leaving you alone in your trap.
-
154.
Now, this door is getting a little annoying. But thankfully, you’re blessed with phenomenal cosmic power right now, and a little teleportation spell should do. And you could also take the goods for sales while Pinkie works her own magic.
-
155.
-
156.
But as soon as you start to channel your power, you gasp as the vice grip on your flanks tighten even further. You failed to notice it in the forest because you lacked visual references, but the increasing pressure of the construction on you make your growth very obvious this time. While having more of the power of the sun pouring into feels absolutely divine, you do not revel much in it as you fear the poor building might be quickly reaching the limits of its resistance, utterly incapable to resist the inflation of your humongous solar flanks.
-
157.
-
158.
The tell-tale *bang* of teleportation resonates in Ponyville as your full standing stature reappears outside of the bakery. Your perspective has changed once again, and you’re now tall enough to effortlessly peek at the first floor of most houses.
-
159.
-
160.
It seems like your predicament from earlier attracted quite a few gawkers. Ponies of Ponyville are staring at you, now small enough that you could pick one up with a single hoof, with expressions of shock on their face. This time they even look… fearful. Some of them try to slowly back away like in the face with a predator, or exchanging worried glares between each other as they do not know how to react to your new improved form.
-
161.
-
162.
-
163.
You shoo away the annoyance in your mind. Of course your subjects would be worried at such an unexpected sight, even if it is their ruler in front of them. They just need a little reminder.
-
164.
-
165.
“Citizen of Ponyville.” You start with your usual calm and confident tone, although probably much louder than you intended. “You need not to be worried. I, Princess Celestia, am still the pony you know, and my new size on the outside hasn’t changed who I am on the inside. And I simply came here to visit. There is absolutely nothing to worry about.”
-
166.
-
167.
Your pleased to see your serene declaration does wonders to calm your subjects, and soon smiles appear on the faces of the ponies around, and they respectfully bow to their ruler. Now that the concern of you being under the influence of some hazardous effect has been cleared, ponies can fully marvel at the sight of their immense princess. They do not hesitate to come right next to you, gawking at the breath-taking perspective they have when they crane their neck to look up at you. The feeling of seeing so many lovely little ponies at your hooves isn’t half bad either.
-
168.
-
169.
A minute later, Pinkie Pie comes forth with a literal mountain of baked goods. Not only will you be able to enjoy a decent-sized treat, but there’s enough for the dozens of ponies next to you.
-
170.
“Wew!” The pink pony wipes the sweat out of her head. “You really gave me a workout, Princess!”
-
171.
“And you exceeded all my expectation, Pinkie.” You genuinely felicitate the party planner. “You truly are a hero of Equestria I can count on!”
-
172.
“Ha!” She proudly puffs her chest. “No way I was gonna pass the chance for the BIGGEST princess party ever!” She exclaims in a burst of confetti.
-
173.
-
174.
And just like that, an improvised tea party start to come together right in front of Sugar Cube Corner. Everypony brings a little something, cakes, tables, and kettles. And a cooking pot for you to use as a cup. Ponies laugh, drink and eat, cheering in the name of their big princess. The young ones are especially amazed by your fantastic size, and you can’t resist preening a feather off to offer a group of fillies. The single plume is a long as they are tall.
-
175.
-
176.
“Ahem…. Princess Celestia?” You hear a familiar voice near your ear. And this voice doesn’t sound in the mood for some peaceful partying.
-
177.
“What is it Twilight?” You turn to see the small purple princess flying next to you. She still has a very nervous look on her face.
-
178.
“Can we… talk?” She stumbles on her words “Are you… feeling all right?”
-
179.
“Better than ever, Twilight!” You beam “You have no idea how much I’m enjoying this day in Ponyville!”
-
180.
“P-princess!” Your former student start to whisper in a panicked tone. “Come on! Wh-why are you so-so-so HUGE!? You’re even bigger that when I first saw you! What’s happening? We must find a way to shrink you down before things go out of hoof!”
-
181.
-
182.
-
183.
“Things going out of hoof?” You cock an eyebrow. “What exactly is the problem with me getting a little bigger?”
-
184.
“A LITLLE BIGGER?!”
-
185.
“Alright, alright…” You’ll never get tired of teasing the purple princess “What’s the problem with a lot bigger, then? You’re the only pony being worried here. You realise that, Twilight?”
-
186.
“W-w-well how do you know you’ve stopped growing?” She starts to hyperventilate, as countless catastrophic scenarios form in her mind “What if you NEVER stop growing! It would be horrible! And even if you don’t, what are the other countries gonna think? What if Yakyakistan declares war on us because you can’t fit in the traditional Yakyak huts!? There’s a BILLION ways this could go out of hoof!”
-
187.
-
188.
Ah, there is your little Twilight… You could have felt offended, if you didn’t know worrying is a very part of her organised personality. The smaller alicorn only feels safe in a perfectly planned schedule. Of course a surprise as big as you was gonna throw her off-balance.
-
189.
-
190.
You wonder… Yes, this might be a good time to put your project under the spotlights. Hiding yourself any longer would be impossible anyway, obviously… This is a good starting point to make the new you official.
-
191.
-
192.
You clear your throat, instantly getting silence and attention from all the ponies present. Now that’s a real perk of being impossible to ignore… But enough distractions.
-
193.
-
194.
“Ponies of Ponyville.” You start your speech. “First, let me thank you for your hospitality. I’m glad to see my unusual appearance hasn’t dampened your conviviality and kindness. Therefore, allow me explain you the reason of this transformation of mine.”
-
195.

“It is a hard truth to take in, but I think you’ve all noticed first hoof that times are growing dark, with enemies coming from the depth of Tartarus with the destruction of Equestria as their only goal…” You feel a wave on unease go through the crowd at that point. These peaceful townsfolks aren’t used being told about such grim concerns.
-
197.
“And as your ruler, this isn’t something I can ignore, nor would it be wise for me to simply hope for quieter time to come anytime soon. This is why I have decided to act. So far, I’ve placed my trust in the princess of friendship and her friends to help Equestria in time of need, and they’ve been flawless. They saved the world despite the impossible odds stacked against them every single time, and I will never be able to express how grateful I am to them for that.”
-
198.
-
199.
“But you, citizens of ponyville, you among all others, you’ve seen how many trials they’ve gone through. You’ve seen how many times they have put their life on the life the save everypony else, myself included. This is far too much of a burden for so few ponies to bear. This isn’t a fair hoof I’ve dealt them, so I’ve decided to ease up the stakes on them.”
-
200.
-
201.
“My dear subjects.” You unfurl your alabaster wings, encircling the whole crowd with them like a protective dome of light “What you see here is the physical manifestation of myself harvesting the power to protect Equestria. With this new body, and the magic power to go with it, I shall be the wall to shield our proud nation against the evils who wish to destroy it. Of course, I won’t be alone. There will always be problems which can only be solved with the power of friendship. But that’s why the power of friendship itself must be protected. This is my oath, Twilight.” You look at your former student, who’s obviously deeply moved by your speech. “I’m going to do everything I can to protect you, and all the ponies of Equestria.”
-
202.
-
203.
As you conclude, chants of your name and spontaneous oaths of loyalty erupt from the crowd bellow. Seeing them welcome your decision so warmly, and their absolute trust in you fills you with an immense sense of joy and pride.
-
204.
-
205.
“Princess Celestia, I…” Twilight stutters, on the verge of tears. “I don’t know what to say. I… I didn’t know you felt like that. But… You should have told us then. I never doubted your intentions were good, but…” A wince comes back on her face “…are you sure this is all perfectly safe? I know I must sound ungrateful… and stupid for doubting my own mentor, but could you pleeeease explain me what you did to yourself exactly? I won’t be able to sleep soundly if I don’t get to the bottom of this…”
-
206.
-
207.
-
208.
“Alright Twilight. I’ll tell you everything you want.” You give in to your purple little ball of worries “Let’s head to your castle. I think I should still be able to stand comfortably there.”
-
209.
-
210.
After wishing your subjects a nice day, you and Twilight retreat to her crystal castle. Getting in once again require a little dexterity, but no accident happen this time. Once you’re inside, the halls and rooms of the castle are spacious enough for your comfort.
-
211.
-
212.
“Wow! Princess Celestia?!” You look down to the tiny purple dragon on the crystal floor. The poor thing doesn’t even come close to your knees anymore, and your front legs look like a pair of massive birch trees he could climb onto. Spike looks shocked at first, but the surprise passes quite swiftly, and shifts to a more playful expression as he continues.
-
213.
“Eh… I’ve been bigger.” He shrugs. “But now I understand what Twilight meant by ‘something big going on with princess Celestia’ ” He nods to himself, as the pieces fall together. The dragon doesn’t look more disturbed by you than that. Unlike Twilight, it seems Spike has become rather used to the esoteric effects of magic around him.
-
214.
-
215.
“Yes. She’s quite the sight to behold. And she was just gonna explain how she made herself such a stature!” Twilight says toward him, but obviously at your attention.
-
216.
“Indeed.” You start. “The mean I used is quite simple actually. It is not a secret for any of you I have a deep connection with the star of the day.”
-
217.
“Yeah!” Spike chuckles “Hard to miss it when the sun on your flank is as big as old me!”
-
218.
“SPIKE!” Twilight jumps as she feels you might be offended, but their antics just make you stifle a laugh, and you continue.
-
219.
-
220.
“Anyway, I’ve decided to use a small portion of energy the sun to boost my magic.” You explain “It is that simple. This morning, I cast the spell I after weeks of research in the library, and I successfully obtained the ability to fuel my own power with the one of the star.”
-
221.
“So… The reason you’ve grown, I mean, grown more between the first time I saw you today and now, is because you used that ability?” Twilight asks.
-
222.
“Yes, that’s exactly it.” You nod.
-
223.
“And there hasn’t been any time when you grew or activated that ability by accident, or anything else?”
-
224.
“Nothing happened to me that I hadn’t decided.” You tell her a tiny half-lie. At first you didn’t realise you were growing each time you used magic, but now everything is under control. And your former student will keep searching for problems to invent in you don’t give her that kind of straight answers.
-
225.
-
226.
“Coooooool!” Spike’s eyes shine. “Not only can you get super awesome and strong, but you can also get bigger at will! The time I went gigantic, it didn’t go so well… But leave it to Princess Celestia to be the chilliest titan on the face of Equsetria!”
-
227.
“I’m glad everything is under control.” Twilight says, finally sounding a little appeased. “But I still think you should find a way to shrink down, Princess. I mean, without losing your new ability of course! But if you keep that body of yours, you’re gonna give a headache to all the architects and bakers of Equestria. They’re not all as energetic as Pinkie!”
-
228.
-
229.
It’s at that moment you see a certain spark ignite in the eyes of the purple alicorn. Ah, after so many years, you still recognize it. Your student is getting excited about an intense research session.
-
230.
“You know, I think I’d like to take care of it actually!” A grinning Twilight starts “You said you made that spell after researching the royal library I suppose, right? If you give me your notes, I’m sure I could find a way to optimise your ritual and make it more comfortable for everypony in a flash! And to tell the truth, I’m feeling rather curious and excited about analysing your work. Would you please allow me this honour, Princess?”
-
231.
-
232.
-
233.
As a matter of fact, you really like the idea. Now that the cat is out of the bag, the support of your former student would be invaluable. It is a fact this is a dive in the unknown for you, and you cannot hope for anypony more suited than Twilight to have your back in case of magical mishap.
-
234.
-
235.
“Of course, Twilight.” You answer, and the purple princess’s wing flutter in elation. “Now let me just think about it a little…”
-
236.
-
237.
Indeed, should the two of you come back to Canterlot? Because you could also very easily bring your notes here, and Twilight has enough source material in her own collection so you won’t miss the royal library. The real question here is probably whether you feel like spending the rest of the day in Ponyville or Canterlot.
-
238.
-
239.
-
240.
“Just wait for me Twilight. I’m going to fetch everything you need this instant.”
-
241.
On these words. You fly to your castle, remaining under the clouds until you can come from bellow, out of the sight of the guards. You miraculously manage not to alert anypony with your presence until you’ve reached the exterior of the royal library. There, you’re forced to use a little telekinesis to pack all the necessary material and bring it through the window, which makes you gain another couple of feet in height. The poor guards you assigned at the library didn’t believe their eyes as they looked at you with plate-sized eyes through the window. But you only gave them a complicit hush and a wink before leaving in a gust of wind.
-
242.
-
243.
“Here, Twilight.” You announce once you’ve returned, as you present the chest filled with book to the purple princess. But she only seems to have worried eyes for you, and your horn which is way closer to touch the ceiling than before.
-
244.
“Ah… Yes, I’ve decided I could try a little more insight.” You sheepishly say. “It’s no big deal…”
-
245.
“Then I guess I better get to work fast.” Twilight cringes “I did say I’d find a solution in a flash…”
-
246.
-
247.
“I know you will succeed.” You smile. “But if you would excuse me, it would be uncouth of me not to visit your other friends.”
-
248.
“Sure, have a good time! Ahem, Spike? Why don’t you go with princess Celestia?” Twilight then whispers something in the dragon’s ear, to which he answers with a nod and a thumbs up. It doesn’t take you to hear what she said or to read her lips to understand Twilight want her assistant to keep an eye on you. But you don’t mind the extra companion.
-
249.
-
250.
“Uhm, Princess Celestia! Please wait!” Spike calls as you were on the way out, already leaving the tiny dragon behind “Can I ride on your back? I don’t think my legs can keep up with yours…” He asks a little embarrassedly.
-
251.
-
252.
-
253.
“Hop on Spike!” You invite the little dragon to climb on your wing since magically placing him on you would be an unnecessarily torment for poor Twilight.
-
254.
“Now THAT’S what I call a mighty steed! Haha!” Spkie laughs as he visibly enjoys the challenge of climbing on you massive yet soft form “Who am I kidding, nopony would ever believe you’re not the hero in this situation, princess! I could hide myself in your mane and ponies wouldn’t even notice me.”
-
255.
The genuine enthusiasm of the little dragon makes you chuckle.
-
256.
“Alright, little hero, I think we’re ready to go!” You say as you start moving with your tiny cavalier.
-
257.
-
258.
For a moment you think about flying back to Canterlot to set things clear with Luna. You still feel bad about lying to her earlier… But she probably won’t wake up for several more hours, so this can probably wait.
-
259.
Instead, you head to Applejack’s property. You would fancy yourself some apples, even though at your size, you can only hope the Apples have a whole cart to spare.
-
260.
-
261.
The perspective is really different on the way to the farm. Since your line of sight at the level of the tree tops, you see almost nothing at hoof level aside from the path. It almost feels like you’re going through a bunch of big bushes, all carrying some sweet dwarf-sized apples.
-
262.
-
263.
“Hey! It’s Big Mac!” You hear Spike on your back. “Hey Big mac!”
-
264.
You didn’t see him under the foliage, but once you’ve lowered your head, you indeed notice the… compared to them, big pony of the Apple family rest under an apple tree, a bottle in his hoof and plate-sized eyes on his face as he stares at you.
-
265.
“Hello Big Macintosh!” You greet him softly, but this doesn’t do anything to take him out of his trance.
-
266.
-
267.
The red stallion blinks in confusion, gives a suspicious look the bottle of cider in his hoof, and look up again to stare blankly at the alicorn whose legs are as wide as the trees he bucked today.
-
268.
-
269.
“Nope.” The red stallion finally says, and turns away. “Nope!” He starts to walk away through the orchard. “NopeNope!” To trot “NopeNopeNopeNope!” He repeats increasingly fast as he gallops away.
-
270.
-
271.
-
272.
You imagine how much fun it would be to play cat and mouse with the red stallion, but you could probably forget about making him comfortable about you if you did that, so you give up on the idea.
-
273.
-
274.
But you didn’t even have the time to ask the permission to take some apples… well, he technically didn’t forbid you help yourself on the trees either. Now, as long as you can’t use your magic without risk of piercing the ceiling, training your dexterity might be a good idea. You extend a wing to reach for the nearest apple, but you only manage to isolate one apple in particular against your feathers, but you have no muscle hear to grasp it. Eventually, you manage to pick the fruit off the branch, but with nowhere on you to land on, it pathetically falls to the ground.
-
275.
-
276.
“Do you need a hand, Princess?” Spike asks while you were considering to try directly with your tongue, and he jumps on your coverts. “Lift me up! I’m gonna get those slippery apples for you!”
-
277.
-
278.
That idea doesn’t seem bad either. You proceed as you just did earlier, but this time you have a dexterous enough way to pick the apple in the person of Spike. The little dragon then takes a throwing stance in your direction, and you produce a small giggle as you understand his intention. You open your mouth and Spike tosses the apple directly in your gullet.
-
279.
-
280.
“Yeah! Bullseye!” He exclaims.
-
281.
“Nice shot, Spike.” You say once you’ve swallowed the dwarf apple in one chomp. “But how many time can you do it in a row?”
-
282.
-
283.
The dragon is ready to take up the challenge, which consist of feeding you the small but delicious fruits. And Spike quite clever with his claws. Even when you sway your wings up and down, he manages to hit the target. Its only two dozen apples later, when he attempts a trick shot and throws an apple while facing away, that a fruit bounces on your snout instead. It’s also at that moment you notice Applejack walking toward you.
-
284.
-
285.
“Mah’ greetings princess.” The orange pony takes off her hat to salute you. She looks a little confused about your state, but she probably witnessed your games with Spike and understands you mean no trouble.
-
286.
“Hey Applejack!” The dragon cheerfully waves at her “Dang, you look small from up there!”
-
287.
“Applejack.” You say “It’s good to see you. I hope you don’t mind I helped myself on some of your fruits. I’ll send a payment from the castle.”
-
288.
“Nah, It’s mah pleasure.” The farm pony shakes her head. “I can’t refuse a few apples to the Princess. Sorry about Mac by the way. He ain’t used dealing with ponies bigger than himself.”
-
289.
-
290.
“I don’t think I can blame him, or anypony who sees me like this for the first time, mind you!” You say.
-
291.
“For the first time?” Applejack sounds more worried all of a sudden “You mean this size of yours is permanent?”
-
292.
“Uh-huh.” You nod. “That’s also why I came to you. I wanted to experience with my new body, and maybe make myself useful by giving a hoof to a friend while I’m at it! Surely your farm has some difficult works a pony as big as I could help you with.”
-
293.
“Erm…” Applejack scratches her head uncomfortably “Ah’ mean no offence, but even if it’s hard, ah don’t think you can help us at this size of yours. I fear you might break a tree with a buck, all the deliveries of the day are done, and ah’ can’t imagine a way to have you use the plough or attach a cart to you…”
-
294.
-
295.
-
296.
“Ah, yes, sorry Applejack. I just got a little carried away. I should have realised I was 30 hooves too tall to help at the farm. But maybe Fluttershy could use my services?” You ponder aloud.
-
297.
“No need for apologies, princess.” Applejack speaks up “But… Once again, Ah’ don’t pretend I know about Fluttershy’s work, but isn’t somepony as big as you gonna scare the critters?”
-
298.
-
299.
Oh…
-
300.
Damn you Applejack, being so logical and rightfully down-to-earth. You managed to get bigger than her apple trees, and she makes it look like a really boring state to be in.
-
301.
“I… Guess so.” You have to force your smile a little. “Then… How have you been doing lately Applejack?”
-
302.
-
303.
“Pretty swell I’d say!” The orange pony answers. “There hasn’t been any friendship problem or any trouble lately, mah sister is having lots of fun with her cutie mark activities, and the harvest of apples is looking really good!”
-
304.
“You’re gonna harvest them soon?” You perk up. “I have an idea! I if can’t buck trees, maybe I can make apples fall by stomping the ground! That would greatly ease up your burden I think!”
-
305.
-
306.
“Thank you princess, but ah’m gonna have to pass once again.” She shrugs embarrassedly, sounding sorry about being the local spoilsport “Ya’ see, all the apples aren’t mature at the same time. So please leave the harvest to us professional buckers! We know how to use just enough strength so only the perfectly ripe fruits are gonna fall!”
-
307.
-
308.
Once again, she’s probably perfectly right. Meeting Applejack was definitely entertaining funny than you expected…
-
309.
-
310.
-
311.
“I think I’m still gonna visit Fluttershy” You declare. “It was a pleasure catching up with you, Applejack.”
-
312.
“Thanks for visiting Princess! Don’t worry, I’ll let you know if I run into some BIG trouble!” She waves goodbye with her hat.
-
313.
“I’ll be waiting. But I don’t think you can find trouble too big for me to handle!” you say before flying away. But not before tasting one last of these delicious apples! Unluckily, you seem to have grabbed an especially small one with your magic. If you had looked back at that moment, Applejack’s shocked expression would probably have made you understand the reason behind your misfortune…
-
314.
-
315.
A couple of ten-yard strides and gale-force flaps or wings later, you’re in view of Fluttershy’s cottage. The place, usually filled with the songs of birds and the noise of happy critters is eerily silent, though. You never considered yourself bad with animals, but it looks like this is one field where size matters…
-
316.
You place a somewhat delicate knock on the door. And soon the quiet little pony opens the door
-
317.
“Who might… that…” Fluttershy loses track of her sentence as she comes face to face with the four alabaster pillar in front of her cottage. Dumbstruck, she slowly walks outside as the doorframe blocks her view when she looks up. Eventually, she stares at your smiling face, but not a sound comes out of her gapping-open mouth.
-
318.
-
319.
“My, hello Fluttershy!” You gently greet her. You could swear these ponies are getting smaller each time you look away. “Did you know you look absolutely adorable from my perspective?”
-
320.
“Yeah!” Spike cheerfully adds “Ponies are cute from above. Uh… Hold on a second, aren’t we a little more…”
-
321.
“P-p-p-p-princess Celestia!?” The yellow pegasus eventually manages to softly scream.
-
322.
-
323.
But at that moment, another voice come to your notice. One you do not exactly take pleasure in hearing…
-
324.
-
325.
“What? Celestia?” The head of a certain chaos god named Discord stretches from inside the cottage to see you. A brief look of surprise appears on his face, but it is soon replaced by the grumpy face he usually shows at your view. “Alright, I’m not at the origin of your condition if that’s what you’re here for, princess.”
-
326.
-
327.
An agenda suddenly materializes in his hand and comically huge glasses on his face “We’re Monday, and my ‘chaos size and transforming extravaganza’ is scheduled for Friday, so unless my ‘unpredictable time shenanigans and entropy study session’ of next month is involved, your culprit is in another timeline.”
-
328.
-
329.
“I’m not here for you, Discord.” You coldly welcome the attempt at humour. “This new size is something I’ve decided for myself. And I’m here to see Fluttershy.”
-
330.
But the dragonequus doesn’t look nearly ready to let you off.
-
331.
“YOU Celestia doing something like THAT to yourself by your OWN volition?” He exclaims exaggeratedly. “Hold on, I need a big one for that!”
-
332.
-
333.
He pretends to concentrate before his next snap of fingers, his thumb and ring finger each growing a pair of muscled, flexing arms, until he produces the mother of all chaotic fingersnaps. For an instant, you’re blinded by the light of his magic. And when you can open your eyes again, you find yourself lying on an absurdly large red divan. Even at your size, you feel like a doll on the gigantic piece of furniture. The contrast with the still smaller landscape of ponyville is even a little confusing.
-
334.
-
335.
The creaking sound of a mechanical jack come to your ear. In the air, the upper body of Discord comes closer to you while he repeatedly pulls on one of his horns to slowly stretch his midsection. He has a notepad in his other claw, a fake bald head, round glasses and a perfectly clean short white beard and moustache, imitating the appearance of a famous psychologist.
-
336.
-
337.
“Alright madam, make yourself comfortable and we shall begin.” He says in a pompous tone once he’s high enough “Don’t worry, size-related complexes are quite common actually, this is nothing to be ashamed of. Now tell me about your fillyhood, princess. Did the other fillies call you names like ‘cloud head’? Or ‘the big one’? Or ‘holy cookie they’re gonna build the next Canterlot up your neck’?”
-
338.
-
339.
-
340.
You stare back unamused, trying to think of the quickest way to tire out the interest of the chaos god for you. Unfortunately, you suddenly being several times bigger than the average pony can probably keep his madness going for quite a while. Maybe the best choice is to make him useful then… Yes, you shall give him a chance, but only because he’s the only one to have offered you a comfortable seat since this morning.
-
341.
-
342.
“Discord, what you see is the result of a ritual I used to increase my magical power in order to protect Equestria.” You declare.
-
343.
“Fascinating!” The chaos god scribbles frenetically on his notepad “An inferiority complex? Go on, we’re making huge progress, here!”
-
344.
-
345.
“With this power, I intend to defend ponies against entities… well, entities like you were not so long ago…” You continue, trying your best to ignore him.
-
346.
“Repressed violence too, huh? Understandable…” Discord comments, and as he flips a page up to write on another one, you see ‘forces of evil’ has beaten him 3 to 1 at tic-tac-toe.
-
347.
-
348.
“Anyway, this increase of size is a side-effect I hadn’t anticipated.” You readily admit “Which makes me thinks, wouldn’t you happen to know a way to shrink me down? This is an occasion to make a good use of your unusual powers, Discord.”
-
349.
“Asking the help of a chaos god for a magical problem?” He cocks an eyebrow “Sorry, but I’m gonna have to give you a treatment for clinical stupidity, here…”
-
350.
“I’m serious, Discord.” You disregard the crude taunt. “If somepony knows about the relation between physical size and shapes and magic power, it has to be you. I mean, look at that divan you made. Are you sure you don’t have a trick for me?”
-
351.
-
352.
There it is. You refrain a smile when you see the god of chaos looking absolutely disappointed at the trust you put in him. Even if he doesn’t like you, Fluttershy would give him scold if he chose to keep messing with you at this point. The mock beard vanishes of Discord’s face, and the lower half of his body jumps up to regain its original form like a rubber band.
-
353.
-
354.
“Alright, alright, I’ll try not to leave an unsatisfied patient.” He grumbles and starts to ponder. “I had a friend in villain school who sure knew his game about changing shapes and size. He could be tiny as a mosquito and tall as a titan the next second, while always controlling all of his evil powers. What was his name again? Abu? Kaku? Well… it doesn’t matter actually.” Discord shrugs. “It’s in the past, and we’ve cut bridges a long time ago. Now, for the present, why don’t you go visit our changeling friends? They’re the experts when it’s about keeping a low profile.”
-
355.
-
356.
The idea isn’t far-fetched. You do not know if they could actually teach you their tricks, but changelings do have the kind of ability you’re seeking right now.
-
357.
“BUT!” Discords booms. “If you insist for little old me to help you personally, Princess, I could send some of your magic in my pocket dimension of chaos. It may solve your problem. Or prove to be greatly entertaining. Or both! But my money’s on greatly entertaining alone...”
-
358.
He zaps himself next to you, and hands you a contract and a quill to sign it, around which rainbow arcs of chaos magic are creaking.
-
359.
-
360.
The contract displays ‘your common sense’ as a price to provide ‘negligible results and guaranteed side effects’
-
361.
-
362.
-
363.
As much as trusting Discord may sound like madness, you may be ready to look into his offer. But not without talking about it with Twilight, Luna, and maybe even Starlight first. Until then…
-
364.
-
365.
“No thanks, Discord.” You shake your head, and push the paper away. “But I think I’ll follow your advice and visit Thorax and his hive. Later. For now, I wish to spend some time with Fluttershy.”
-
366.
-
367.
“Fiiiiiine.” Discord huffs, and after a clap of his hands and a flash, you’re back on the ground, the yellow pegasus gasping at both your sudden reappearances.
-
368.
“Alright Fluttershy, it was nice seeing you.” Discord says. “But you’ve got an appointment with the sun I think. And I believe I’m not welcome in her presence.”
-
369.
A van full of Discords wearing Haywaiian shirts come pick the god up, before they all drive away and disappear behind the roll of a hill.
-
370.
-
371.
“Hum…” The yellow pegasus quietly attempts to get you attention once he’s gone. “P-princess Celestia? Did you… need me for something?”
-
372.
-
373.
It’s at that moment you hear a rather unsavoury blech on your back. As you turn, you see Spike unrolling a piece of scroll.
-
374.
“Oh! Message from Twilight!” He explains and starts to read. “Uh-huh… Uhm… Huh? Princess!” The little dragon turns to you, something seems to have alarmed him. “Twilight says you’re gonna grow more each time you use your magic! You’ve got to be careful with that!”
-
375.
-
376.
She understood that from your researches alone? You’re pleasantly surprised, and also even more comforted in your choice of putting the princess of friendship on the case. You have little doubts she’ll eventually figure out everything.
-
377.
“Worry not, Spike.” You reassure him. “I knew that already. I’ll be careful.”
-
378.
-
379.
“Oh, my… Princess! I’m so sorry. You’re in such a predicament…” Futtershy whimpers “But… how will your raise and lay down the sun? In less than a week you’ll get… really… like, a lot more… Oooooh…”
-
380.
Fluttershy hides her eyes behind her wings, probably imagining a way too big Celestia causing trouble to the local fauna.
-
381.
-
382.
-
383.
“There is no need to be afraid, Fluttershy.” You lie on your belly, and use a hoof to scoop the little pegasus and gently press her against your chest. Your fluff is thick enough for her to look like she is lying on tall grass from your perspective.
-
384.
“As big as I may get, I’ll always be gentle with my little ponies.” You adds.
-
385.
-
386.
“Ooohuhu…” Fluttershy lets out a pleased giggle “You remind me of Mr. Bear, Princess. I mean, the way you hug of course!”
-
387.
The little pegasus then nuzzles against your chest and hugs you back with her own small hooves. Somewhat, feeling this little pony against you feels immensely soothing, and a pleasant shiver runs down your spine. You almost feeling like taking a nap right now.
-
388.
-
389.
You lower your head to invite her on to see your perspective, but your new size betrays you at this moment. Your horn, currently as long as a full-grown pony, comes to bump one of the higher branches of a tree near the pegasus’s home. A nest was there, the two birds inside jump in the air in panic at the sudden shake, but you also see three eggs falling from the tree.
-
390.
Fluttershy lets out a gasp of horror.
-
391.
-
392.
You only have an instant to react.
-
393.
-
394.
-
395.
There is no question to ask yourself here. Even if it’s just some eggs, protecting is why you got these powers in the first place.
-
396.
Even if you try to be as fast as possible, your whole body still bulges outwards in every direction with enough force to push Fluttershy on the ground as your horn lights up. However, the eggs have safely landed on the ground.
-
397.
-
398.
Fluttershy doesn’t even seem to register the bump or your growth and immediately rushes to bring up the fallen eggs to the nest. She whispers a couple of reassuring words to the bird parents before turning to you again.
-
399.
-
400.
“Thank you princess!” She says with a bow. “I’m sorry you had to… become bigger because of me...”
-
401.
-
402.
-
403.
You stand up, trying to figure out how tall you’ve become, but you’re lacking pertinent references around here. You head is way over the trees or Fluttershy’s cottage, and the shy pegasus could probably land and stand comfortably on one of your hooves.
-
404.
-
405.
Also, the corruption you feared might have taken you from the sun’s arogance never really happened so far. Maybe you were wrong about that, or maybe your parsimonious use of the sun’s energy kept you safe.
-
406.
You remember the great elation you felt when you first tested your magic in the Everfree, but each time after that you’ve concentrated to be as fast as possible with your spells, mostly stifling the pleasure of the experience. You’re not nearly close to lose reign over yourself at least, even if you feel the power pulsing inside you like a second, burning heart, ready to unleashed its flames and grow at your slightest command.
-
407.
-
408.
“Fluttershy… It’s probably best I leave for now.” you declare. “There’s other business which calls me.”
-
409.
“Alright Princess. Take care of yourself!” The shy yellow pony says to the giant princess in front of her.
-
410.
-
411.
Finding a solution to your size is becoming more and more of a pressing issue, as abstaining from using magic even is peaceful times has proved to be very difficult. So you’re flying over the badlands toward the new allied changeling hive in the hope their shapeshifting powers could help you. But on the way, the little dragon on your back burps another scroll.
-
412.
-
413.
“Hum, Princess?” Spike says once he’s done reading. “Twilight says she managed to mount up a temporary solution if things and getting too crazy for us. She asks if you need to use it right now? What should I answer her?”
-
414.
-
415.
-
416.
“Answer her we’re one our way to talk about this in the flesh.” You tell Spike, and set your direction to Ponyville again.
-
417.
-
418.
Coming back in town gets you a better grasp of your current size. Most houses of Ponyville only have two floors, and you’re now able to easily see over these. You’d still be able comfortable walking in the rather wide streets without problem, but you worry you might not totally master the space occupied by your huge body anymore, since you had that accident with your horn earlier…
-
419.
-
420.
As for Twilight’s castle, well… getting in would be a really tight fit, and the insides would probably still be very cramped now. You were thinking about sending Spike to get the purple princess, but your arrival didn’t come unnoticed. Twilight, but also Starlight Glimmer come out to the balcony on the first floor to see you, which is as high as the tip of your horn. Needless to say, they both have a look of utter panic on their faces.
-
421.
-
422.
“Oh no, princess Celestia! You’re bigger again!” Twilight exclaims “At this rhythm I don’t know if I’ll find a solution in time!”
-
423.
“Twilight Sparkle!” You use a more commanding tone to shake your former student off her febrility, a call which all Ponyville has probably heard. You voice gets softer after that. “Cease to panic, it will lead you nowhere. And you told me you had a temporary solution already, so I trust you to find something definitive in time.”
-
424.
-
425.
“Right! *Ah-pfew*” The princess breathes deeply “Calm down Twilight! *Ah-pheeeew* Alright I’m calm. Caaaaalm.” The purple alicorn closes her eyes for a few seconds, and when she opens them again, she does looks like she has regained enough composure to express herself clearly.
-
426.
“Yes, Princess, I found a way to shrink you down. And you look like you could use it right now…”
-
427.
“Why don’t you explain me how it works, first?” You reply.
-
428.
-
429.
“It’s rather simple actually, and it didn’t need much work from me.” Twilight says. “Remember when you, Cadence and Luna decided to lend me your magic when Tirek invaded? Well, the spell can be easily adapted so you can share some of your new-found magic with other alicorns. That should also share the size you’ve acquired. And since we don’t have the same bond as you do with the sun, we won’t be able to grow on our own.”
-
430.
“Big Celestia and now big Twilight?” Spike crosses his arms. “I hope you intend to help me make the pancakes in the morning if we give you an even bigger stomach!”
-
431.
“SPIKE!” A furiously blushing Twilight calls. “This is not the time for jokes! I just explained my plan to the princess, it’s really important!”
-
432.
-
433.
“Ahem…!” Starlight Glimmer raises a hoof in the air, demanding attention “Yes! It’s very important! That’s why I’d like to tell you about my own conclusions, Princess Celestia.”
-
434.
“Starlight…” Twilight says, sounding embarrassed “I’m not sure we need to hear your… worst-case solution yet, do we?” She glances toward you for support, but you’re interested in what the unicorn has to say.
-
435.
-
436.
“Speak up, Starlight.” You say. “I’m all ears.”
-
437.
“Alright…” The pink unicorn clears her throat as she prepares to present the content of her notes, hoping to make a good impression. “Let’s image you got really, REALLY, WAY too big, Princess Celestia. So big that even divided among all four princesses, they would still each be really way too big too. Well, the only chance in that scenario would be to… keep growing.”
-
438.
“What?” You and Spike exclaim in equal surprise.
-
439.
-
440.
“The solution is to keep growing until you’ve absorbed all of the sun’s power, so you have all of its energy in one point inside you again.” Startlight explains “Of course you’ll be impossibly huge by then, perhaps huger that the sun since its energy is so concentrated! but with all that power, you could use it to simply… create another sun, which would bring everything back to normal, including yourself, princess Celestia!” She concludes, sounding strangely sure of herself for a pony proposing for you to grow to an astronomical scale.
-
441.
-
442.
-
443.
“I guess I shall keep that in mind if things go critical.” You say, trying not to discourage the unicron too much.
-
444.
“Of course. I didn’t mean it any other way!” Starlight answers.
-
445.
“But I think going with Twilight’s solution right now is the best option.” You add, turning to the purple princess “Are you ready to relieve me from some of this inconvenient size?”
-
446.
“S-sure!” Twilight flies down the balcony. She sounds apprehensive about what she’s about to do. “If you’re alright I can do it right now. You’re really sure about yourself, Princess?”
-
447.
-
448.
“Yes, I’m ready.” You nod.
-
449.
“Humf!” The purple princess nods, then takes a big breath in, and out, to concentrate. “Once you can see I’m making contact.” She then explains “Just use the spell to transfer me your magic. My own spell will make it so only the power you derive from the sun will be affected, and that no more will pour into you while the magic goes to me.”
-
450.
“I understand.” You nod. “We can begin.”
-
451.
-
452.
Twilight closes her eyes as she focusses, and soon the tell-tale purple light of her magic start to shine on her horn. A moment later, tendrils of purple mist spawn from the purple princess, and start to cover you up in a purple glow. While you don’t physically feel the touch of your former student’s magic, the sensation of the sun’s energy inside you feels slightly dimmed, as though a supple veil had been brought between you and all of this power.
-
453.
“I’m… ready… Princess!” Twilight grunts, her eyes still closed as the spell seems to take all of her concentration. “Go!”
-
454.
-
455.
On the princess’s command, you start to transfer your power into her.
-
456.
-
457.
A golden flow of magic start to emanate from you. The feeling is rather weird, and just as unpleasant as you remember from using it in the past. It feels like your whole being is evaporating in the desert, shrivelling as though the water, or in that case, the magic was escaping you through your skin. But at least, you immediately see your perspective start to lower, which is probably a sign the ritual is going well.
-
458.
-
459.
But as the first particle of your light hits Twilight, things start to take a strange turn.
-
460.
The purple princess gasps audibly, her tense expression of focus shifting to a vacant expression of shock, and the intensity of the purple glow around you seem to instantly double in intensity. You lose any hold on the flow of magic and groan in pain as the simply uncomfortable tug on your power transforms in a crushing pressure to squeeze out any kind of magic out of you. Your knees become week as you’re shrinking so fast it feels like your falling, while whole clouds of magic ooze from you.
-
461.
-
462.
Meanwhile, the princess of friendship starts to inflate like a balloon, her head rising up to the sky faster than you’ve ever have. And when the second wave of your magic hits her, she lets a blatant and sonorous moan of pleasure as her growth accelerates even further. In no time, you’re looking your former student in the eyes, and then looking up, and further up to her face where an absent smile of pure bliss is plastered.
-
463.
-
464.
In only a few seconds, you’re back at your original size, Twilight having purely and simply drained you of all the power you acquired today. She now stands as tall as you were seconds ago, still seemingly lost in a trance of ecstasy.
-
465.
Meanwhile, you feel… indescribably cold. So cold your body shivers from head to hoof. You didn’t realise with how accustomed you had become to the power of the sun, but now that only a flicker remains, akin to the light of a stubborn candle in the wind, you’re feeling more vulnerable than a lost foal. At least, you don’t feel like your spell from this morning has been broken. And you have a primal need to summon the power of the sun inside you again.
-
466.
-
467.
In the corner of your eyes, you see Starlight and Spike still on the balcony, obviously panicked and not knowing how to suddenly react to having a direct view on Twilight’s horn.
-
468.
-
469.
-
470.
Despite your discomfort, you decide not to tap in the sun’s power right now. You fear your former student, in her visible confusion, might siphon it to add even more to her size. Indeed, her horn is still lit up with a bright purple flame.
-
471.
-
472.
“Twilight.” You call the big purple princess, but she still seems completely lost in an extremely pleasant daydream.
-
473.
-
474.
“TWILIGHT!” You call with more strength, and this time you reach her.
-
475.
-
476.
“HUH?!” Her eyes suddenly flutter in confusion. “I’m… WOAH!” She exclaims in panic as she takes in her new perspective. The surprise makes frenetically turn around, and her rear soon bumps in her own castle, the shock sending both Spike and Starlight on their knees. Twilight gasps as the accident, and finishes to lose her balance with the recoil, thus falling on her back with a huge *THUD* which makes the ground shake under your hooves.
-
477.
-
478.
“Ahem… Be careful Twilight…” You warn her a little late. “You have to be wary at your size...”
-
479.
“P-princess…. I… Ow, my head…” The huge purple pony whimpers, massaging her head “I’m s-sorry! I don’t know what got into me!”
-
480.
“I say a good hundred bucketloads of sun magic got into you!” Spike call from the balcony.
-
481.
-
482.
“Indeed, you’ve taken… quite a lot of my power.” You comment, a bitter aftertaste in your mouth “I didn’t expect you to take me back to square one. Now I hope you’re not gonna have too much trouble with this size. How did it feel when you took my magic Twilight?”
-
483.
“Uhm! It was…” The whole face of the unicorn becomes red as she stands up again. “I… don’t know. I really didn’t expect this but it’s like my brain stopped working because it felt so… good I’d say. I’m sorry, I didn’t want this to happen...”
-
484.
-
485.
-
486.
“Looks like you’re really gonna have to find a permanent solution… for both of our sakes, Twilight.” You state.
-
487.
The unicorn answers with a nod and a tense grin.
-
488.
“Starlight, give a copy of my notes about this spell to Princess Celestia.” She says “That way she’ll be able to teach to the teach Luna or Cadence that way.”
-
489.
-
490.
The pink unicorn nods, and dashes inside.
-
491.
“And what about you, princess Celestia?” Spike gets your attention from the balcony. “Are we still going to visit Thorax after that?”
-
492.
-
493.
You wonder. That’s still an option, but the day is closing to an end. This may be time to return to Canterlot, and find the good way to announce everything to Luna. She must be awake by now.
-
494.
-
495.
-
496.
While Spike could send a scroll to your sister, it’s probably better you speak to her face to face. Explaining you lied to her this morning with a scroll wouldn’t be nice from you at all after all...
-
497.
-
498.
“I think visiting my sister is in order and explain her what I did.” You answer Spike. “And since I’m back to an unimpressive size, she may take it in more serenely.”
-
499.
“Alright! To Canterlot, then!” Spike says with enthusiasm. “Oh! Can we make a stop at Doughnut Joe’s?”
-
500.
-
501.
While you wait for Starlight Glimmer to produce a copy of the spell, you can’t help but to worry about your former student. Her inability to control herself has been brief, but it is a fact power made her lose her mind, if only for a second. You have a growing sense of unease as you fear the purple princess might succumb to the call of the power of the sun. Right now, the towering purple princess seems rather scared of her own stature, though. She pushes her hoof down, and winces as she sees the size and depth of the print she leaves on the ground, visibly uncomfortable with the new size and strength of her new body.
-
502.
-
503.
Perhaps some words from you could help her feel better… or help you to make sure she doesn’t go down on a bad path.
-
504.
Oh, and perhaps you know a spell which could help the purple princess to manage her new size better, or allow you to watch over her! Yes, you have no idea which one yet, but casting a spell right now feels like the absolute way to go…
-
505.
-
506.
-
507.
“Twilight. I think I can help you get used to this new size.” You say. “I know a spell which will enhance you vision enough to still be able to read normal-sized books.”
-
508.
“Great! I’ll be able to work like normal that way. Can you teach… me… the…” Twilight’s smile of enthusiasm fades away as she sees your horn lighting up already.
-
509.
-
510.
Ah… That’s more like it, you think to yourself as you finally embrace once again the power of the sun. This time, you’re not taken by surprise or trying to make it quick, so you can fully appreciate the sensation of letting the dam of infinite power break, and have your body fill with the energy it rightfully deserves. You bite your lip to repress a moan, but the way every cell of your body scream in ecstasy as they expand, materializing the power you’re acquiring, is beyond any pleasurable experience you’ve had this past century. You’re almost disappointed when your spell is ready, but a semblance of common sense forces you not to draw any more power just after purging yourself of said energy, and you enchant Twilight’s eyes with a top-quality spell. By that point, you’ve still managed to take back most of the size you had before giving it to twilight, and stand only a head shorter than the purple princess.
-
511.
-
512.
You let out a satisfied huff once you’re done, your carving for power quenched for now.
-
513.
How funny. You think Twilight is approximately as big to you as you’re usually to Luna. It’s been a while you haven’t had a bigger pony than yourself. Unrealistic height ratios aside, of course!
-
514.
-
515.
“Princess…” Twilight blinks in confusion “You… D-did you just...”
-
516.
“No need to thank me, Twilight.” You cut her rambling with a smile. “It was my pleasure. You can only work on a solution in the best conditions there are!”
-
517.
“Y-yes!” The big purple pony says with a tense smile. But you’ve obviously made her worry about your recklessness, even if she still won’t confront you about it.
-
518.
-
519.
After making Starlight gasp in shock once again, you have Spike carry the instruction for the size-transfer spell in a bag, and fly away to Canterlot. Before leaving, you instruct Twilight to make sure to go to bed tonight, so that Luna may help her get a better control of herself in the dreamscape.
-
520.
-
521.
Your arrival in the castle at Canterlot with Spike causes… quite the mess. Every castle employee you meet is dumbstruck, and you hear a few screams form the maids and stewards as you pass near them. The kitchen also immediately goes in panic as the projected amount to cook has suddenly been significantly increased. You even notice a couple of bits changing hoof, as a couple of lucky guards seemingly won a wager about witnessing a queen-sized princess Celestia earlier today.
-
522.
-
523.
After making sure to order for Luna to be informed of your arrival, you decide to wait for her in the biggest room of the castle.
-
524.
Your once spacious throne room only feels like a decent-sized lounge, now. But unluckily it lacks any kind of comfortable seat. Your once imperial throne is now nothing more than a filly chair. You were thinking about asking your servants to bring all the mattresses of the castle here, when a voice takes you out of your pondering.
-
525.
-
526.
“Sister!?” Luna exclaims. Her eyes still going wide despite having seen you this morning already. Well, you weren’t over three times her height back then…
-
527.
-
528.
“Oh my…” She says as she approaches you. “We’re far beyond the range of a harmless prank here, sister. This is getting rather ridiculous! Where is Discord!?”
-
529.
-
530.
-
531.
"Weeeeeeeell." You sheepishly look away.
-
532.
"What is it sister?"
-
533.
"I may have told a tiny lie to you this morning. My unusual size isn't Discord's doing." You admit with a shameful shrug.
-
534.
"What? Why?" Your sister scowls. "What's happening?"
-
535.
-
536.
"Well, it's a long story. You see… I've been feeling rather blue lately, because of… everything." You sulk "The bottom line is that, with all the times I've failed to defeat the many enemies of Equestria which arose recently, I've been feeling like I was inadequate, incapable of protecting our beautiful country anymore..."
-
537.
"Sister, I…" Luna seems moved by your words. "I'm feeling the same way!"
-
538.
-
539.
"W-what?"
-
540.
"I too… have been feeling inadequate." Your sister shyly admits "In my memories, you and I were the one to protect Equestria when evil arose, and even though I'm glad Twilight and her friends are here now, it's still… unnerving to be casted to the background each time. So that's why you've decided to become a bigger mare?"
-
541.
"Huh… I…" You didn't expect your sister to be so understanding. "Y-yes. But it's not only my size. I've decided to borrow more of the power of the sun to empower my magic. The increase in height is actually a size-effect I didn't expect. In fact, I've visited Twilight and entrusted her to find a solution since I actually grow each time I use magic."
-
542.
-
543.
"Oh. Now that's troublesome." That does sound to worry your sister, but only a second before a tooth smile returns on her face. "Even though I really want to see a changeling trying to club you unconscious, or some pitiful vines ensnaring you at this new size!"
-
544.
You chuckle. You sister is doing a good job showing you the good sides of your condition for once. But on a more serious note, you continue explaining the situation to Luna
-
545.
"It is an issue, but Twilight has come up with a temporary way to relieve me already. She has devised a spell so I could share the power I acquire with other alicorns, and the additional size too. She already helped me on that regard and relieved me of some height."
-
546.
"Wh-wha… You've been even bigger than this?" Luna's eyes go wide again.
-
547.
"Yes, and on that note I would like to ask you to help Twilight get more confident with her new big body through the dreamscape. She looked a little in distress when I left her. And also… I wanted to ask you if I could entrust you with some of my power right now."
-
548.
-
549.
"Of course I'll help Twilight." Luna nods. "You'll also tell me later in you intend to come with me to the dreamscape. Now, about relieving you of your size, I only have one condition..." She takes a mischievous smile. "I want to be the bigger sister for once! That'll be your punishment for lying to me this morning."
-
550.
-
551.
-
552.
You laugh heartily. It looks like you'll be making a second pony bigger than yourself today. You're already thinking at getting back at your greedy sister. Maybe by making her just big enough for her horn to get stuck in the lower doorframes of the palace…
-
553.
"That's not something I'm going to refuse." You answer. "May we proceed right away?"
-
554.
-
555.
Since you're accepting Luna's conditions, she immediately starts to study the papers Spike handles her. She understands rather quickly, and soon enough, you find yourself in a similar situation than earlier, except it's now the blue glow of your sister's magic which is englobing you.
-
556.
-
557.
A little reluctantly, you once again let go of your power. Doubts tickle the back of your mind as whether it is really necessary for you to diminish yourself again, but the complicity with your sister easily outweighs these concerns.
-
558.
-
559.
"OH!" Luna gasps when the magic hits her, and like Twilight, a huge grin sprouts on her face. But she does remain in control of the situation.
-
560.
"My! Sister!" She exclaims delightedly nonetheless "You should have told me! Getting more magic make me feel… Euphoric!"
-
561.
Yes, it does, and you're quite jealous you're not the one increasing your magic right now…
-
562.
-
563.
Your form dwindles again, although at an acceptable pace this time. You and Luna stare in each other's eyes for the whole process, your perspective switching sides, and Luna's grin gets cheeky when she finally passes you.
-
564.
When the process is over, you're back at the size you had when you first met Luna this morning, about a head taller than your original size. Luna however, is significantly larger, three time the height of an average pony, and her size might forbid her to get inside the buildings with simple doors. But in this castle, none of you should have any problem navigating anywhere.
-
565.
-
566.
While you still feel a certain thirst for power, your distress is noting compared to how miserable you were after being drained by Twilight, and the process has been rather gentle on both your bodies and brains overall.
-
567.
Which allows Luna to immediately pounces at you once the spell is finished.
-
568.
-
569.
A *HOOF!* escapes your lips as you're hit by a huge load of dark blue fur, which pins you to the ground. You attempt to push over your little sister like you always do, but for the first in the history of Equestria, you simply fail to bulge your sister away. She's simply too big, and smothers you even more under her fur while laughing out loud.
-
570.
-
571.
You're only freed from the greater weight of your sister when she decides to take you in a gentle, but firm chokehold to violently ruffle your mane with a hoof, transforming your celestial rainbow of a mane in an ungraceful mess of knots.
-
572.
-
573.
"Hahaha! I've waited a THOUSAND years for this, sister!" Luna exclaims triumphally. "Beware, Celestia! Tonight, you shall reap the payback for a fillyhood of big sister tough love!"
-
574.
A whole fillyhood's worth? Hold on, now you have a serious itch to show Luna who's the REAL bigger pony. It would be totally unfair toward her, but that's how being the big sister has always been after all!
-
575.
-
576.
-
577.
You decide to swallow your pride and endure your big little sister's treatment. It may seem contradictory, but being the best big sister requires for you be the little sister right now. You ponder that thought while an exhilarate Luna suplexes you with the strength of a dragon.
-
578.
-
579.
Getting tickled into submission, hugged and spooned and sunggled into oblivion, or having your throne literally stolen by your sister, then having to fly after her while she sticks her tongue out at you to put back the precious furniture in place, these are all trials your sister forces on you while she has the advantage of size. For what seems like hours, you're forced to compete with a stronger and heavier alicorn who never misses a chance to humiliate you, and underlying your inability to physically match her. You could have felt insulted, but the fact it's been a very long time you haven't seen your sister laughing this heartily makes you appreciate each time you're pinned under twice your own mass in blue pony.
-
580.
-
581.
"Alright sister." Luna eventually declares, once she has tested all the wrestling moves she knew on you, then some she probably just invented. "I think playtime is over for me. You're gonna have to lower the sun very soon, and if I understood, that means you'll be getting bigger again…"
-
582.
"Uh-uh." You shake your head meekly, physically exhausted. "I think you have more than enough power to bring the sun down yourself right now."

583.
"Really?" Luna blinks, and immediately her horns light up. In only a couple of second, the sun is blown away behind the horizon, and the moon is hanged at its place. "W-wow! Your method certainly paid off, sister! I didn't realise my power was legendary already! Now I think it's time to visit Twilight's dream."
-
584.
"Sure. But before that, let's take a stop at the kitchen while I'm not big enough to empty the pantry in one meal."
-
585.
-
586.
The kitchen was in a panic when you arrived at the castle, and it's still that way when you arrive for dinner. Even if you're smaller, Luna's growth made a feverish cook ask you what he should expect for tomorrow's food supplies. The sincere answer that you don't know how big you or Luna will be by then seems to put him very ill-at-ease. But while the royal cook usually watches over your health, he's in way too much of a daze to refuse you a spoiled filly's dream of a meal, composed mainly of colourful cakes and mountains of ice cream, which you both devour with gusto.
-
587.
-
588.
While you're here, you have Spike send a letter to Cadence explaining her the whole situation, and sending a copy of the modified transfer spell for good measure. A doughnut stain also finds its way on the letter.
-
589.
-
590.
Some time later, you find yourself in a large chamber where many mattresses have been piled up on the ground to accommodate your sizes. You and Luna are both drifting calmly to sleep, while your big little sister holds you like a plush against her belly. Felling her warmth all over yourself and slow breathing over you is a greatly soothing experience, one you've never had in your oh so long existence. Being the smallest has some advantages after all…
-
591.
-
592.
It doesn't take long for you to find yourself floating in a strange swirl of pastel colours, which lazily flows upward and carries some strange disembodied door of various appearances. Luna floats near you to catch your attention is this dreamscape, where you're currently having your usual respective heights.
-
593.
-
594.
"Alright sister, let me concentrate…" Luna closes her eyes, and the gentle flow around suddenly accelerates a hundredfold, like a tape going on fast forward. This goes on for a minute before Luna stops, a quizzical look on her face. "Huh… I cannot find Twilight." she shrugs.
-
595.
"Odd… I did tell her to go to sleep early." You ponder.
-
596.
"But you also told her to study for a solution to your size, didn't you?" Luna chuckles. "I can clearly imagine her being struck in a 'one more chapter before bed' loop. How about you have some sleep sister? I'll catch you when Twilight's mind is available in the dreamscape."
-
597.
-
598.
There is nothing for you to add here, so you simply nod and embrace the serenity of actual, rejuvenating sleep.
-
599.
-
600.
Next thing you know, somepony nudges you awake. And that sompepony happen to be Luna.
-
601.
"Wake up sister. It's going to be time I rise up the sun soon." The bigger moon princess whispers, sounding a little tired. "But I didn't find Twilight in the dreamscape at all, tonight."
-
602.
"Really? Now I'm starting to get worried." You say.
-
603.
-
604.
While your sister raises the star of the day, you go question Spike and ask him if he know what's going or of if he received any message. The small dragon only has theories to offer, however.
-
605.
"You're right princess, it's kinda weird." He concludes. "But Twilight putting and all-nighter would not be a first time. Especially if she couldn't sleep because of the stress of her new size and her task. Maybe a visit is in order, just to check if she's alright, and tell her to take it easy."
-
606.
-
607.
You were pondering about the idea of visiting your former student right now, when a panicked guard bursts into the room.
-
608.
"Princess Celestia!" He calls in panic, and comes to you. "There's trouble in the city. Some sort of weird ghost has appeared in the museum! We've managed to evacuate everypony without incidents, but we don't know for how long this thing will stay inside!"
-
609.
-
610.
This sounds urgent, you've got to go right now! But going with Luna is probably the wise thing to do here. And if it's some kind of ghost… you probably won't be able to do anything without magic.
-
611.
In fact, letting Luna handle this on her own might even be a possibility
-
612.
-
613.
-
614.
No, you don't need Luna to keep ponies safe. Besides, at her size she might do more harm than good on precious artefacts of the museum.
-
615.
-
616.
Letting Spike in the dust, you follow the guard to the source of the unrest. Dashing though the streets of Canterlot, the crowds of ponies you meet are rather deferential, only a few looking troubled by your size. Well, you towered of your subjects every day, so it's not so surprising for them not to be startled by the difference.
-
617.
-
618.
The museum of Cantelot is a rather big building, filled with many items of immemorial age. This is also where Daring Do's findings end up most of the time. And honestly, given the nature of the cursed artefacts she brings back from her adventures, it's a surprise no problem like this has happened sooner.
-
619.
A cordon of guard blocks the entry when you arrive.
-
620.
-
621.
"Princess!" The trained soldiers bow at your arrival, and the nearby sergeant proceed to explain you the situation. "Something happened in the ancient jewellery exposition! Witnesses, and some of my ponies talk about sudden howling, and a towering ghostly figure of glowing light. The thing tossed one of us around like a toy, so we decided to retreat. It's been calm since we left. What is your command?"
-
622.
-
623.
-
624.
"I don't think being tossed around is going be a problem for me." You declare with a cheeky smile. "Show me the way, I'll go take care of this myself!"
-
625.
-
626.
Your ponies seem relieved to rely on you for everything. They indicate you in which part of the museum the ghost has been seen, and it isn't long before your find yourself walking through the deserted halls, filled with ancient but mostly harmless items. You attempt to walk stealthily, but among the tiny pieces of furniture and showcases at half your height, you're not sure it's working a lot…
-
627.
-
628.
Still, your ears pick up some noise from the intended section. There's some smoke floating around here… Peeking from around the corner, you see… three minotaurs, two covered from head to toe with black clothes, even their faces, while the other wears a strange suit of glowing spiky armour, giving him a fearsome appearance.
-
629.
They're all emptying the showcases in bags as fast as they can. It doesn't seem they have noticed you yet. And unless they intend to loot another section of the museum, you suspect they may try to leave very soon.
-
630.
-
631.
Looks like you found your ghost…
-
632.
-
633.
-
634.
Perhaps it's time you gave these ruffians a taste of their own medicine!
-
635.
Finding a sheet and some chains, you drape yourself to resemble the most fearsome of ghosts! You then use your wings to hoover toward them, rattling your chain and emitting an otherworldly howl.
-
636.
-
637.
The three burglars exchange a confused look, before starting to run away from you, their prize still in their hands.
-
638.
Alright, even after a thousand years, ponies may still be a little behind on the art of the spooktacular.
-
639.
-
640.
-
641.
Enough playing around, you won't let these gangsters get away with this.
-
642.
You channel the power of the sun inside you once more, the three thieves screaming in surprise as their feet suddenly don't touch the ground anymore. But you victory is short, as you already feel your sheet falling off you as you size increases.
-
643.
-
644.
In your surprise, your targets are freed from your magical hold, but already they forget the idea of bringing the goods home, and simply dash away at full speed without a look behind.
-
645.
But you're not gonna accept anything else than complete surrender from them. You grin as you let the intoxicating power swell in your body. The chains you took as part of your disguise start to move like living quick-silver snakes. In heavy armour, the first minotaur is an easy prey, and he quickly falls and gets caught by your weapons.
-
646.
-
647.
The second thief, more agile and weary of the demise of his accomplice, manages to dodge a few times, but a few seconds later he undergoes the same fate and falls flat on the ground, tied up in chains.
-
648.
Things suddenly get a lot more chaotic for the next burglar, as your continuous use of magic has propelled you to an already impressive height. You realise a little too late you're looking in the eye of the fossil tyrannosaurus of the next hall, and before you can react, your wings brush with the two opposite walls of the room. You gasp as you lose balance, and suddenly have to use your magic to hold yourself in the air while still trying to catch the thief.
-
649.
-
650.
And the adverse effect of holding something so massive as yourself is to increase the flow of magic even more, and you can't repress a moan of pure pleasure as you explode with size, rapidly filling up the room you're in.
-
651.
Simply putting yourself off the ground isn't going to be enough to protect the few artefacts still in their cases, so you have to levitate… oh goodness, another spell… the items to a safer space in a perpendicular passage. With your mind also filled with intense pleasure, you give up on manipulating the chain to catch the last thief, and instead summon magic walls to block any path he may want to escape through.
-
652.
-
653.
-
654.
The poor minotaur starts to panic, and falls on his butt as he turns to face you. He clumsily crawls away, terrified, incapable of breaking eye contact with the behemoth who could by now swallow him whole in one bite. And still growing fast. So fast your body is catching up on his pitiful attempt at escaping, threatening to smother him against the magical wall. For an instant, you think about letting that happen, enjoying the thought of this insignificant criminal squirming again the mass of an ever-growing Celestia. But you come to your senses, as your daydreaming spawns the less-than-chaste thought of trapping the tiny criminal where the sun never shines, so you simply put your hoof down on the ruffian to end this one-sided debauchery of power.
-
655.
-
656.
A half-satisfied, half-disappointed moan escapes your mouth as you can finally stop using your magic, thus stopping to add size to the mountain of a pony you've already become.
-
657.
-
658.
Now that the situation in under control, you attempt to calculate in how big of a mess you put yourself in. You're absolutely massive, filling an entire hallway of the museum with your body. You have to hold your neck down, and your behind is squished from all sides as it reaches both walls, the floor and the ceiling of the hall who's supposed to allow large groups of ponies to walk around a central exposed piece. The three burglars are secured under a single of your hooves, and one of your eyes is probably larger than one of these minotaurs.
-
659.
-
660.
You also feel like your will have been… weakened. You're not sure if it's because you used so much power at once, but you feel a general elation everywhere on your body, almost akin to being physically drunk on your new power. Caution seems like a slightly abstract concept right now, as you feel like you could fix anything with the sheer power you possess anyway. To make it worst, your yearning for more magic which was only a punctual carve before is now constantly teasing the back of your mind.
-
661.
-
662.
The guards arrive a short time later as they heard the commotion. Needless to say, they're more than shocked at your appearance, you can't repress a blush when the sergeant says they first tried to come the other way but were blocked by your colossal rear. Still, they take away the culprits you caught and put the nearby artefacts to safety.
-
663.
-
664.
The question is, how do you intend to proceed from here? Going out without magic would probably cause a lot of damage, but even though your body and most basic instincts would readily accept several times more power, your sense of rationality ironically fears bulldozing your way through the concrete is a safer idea than getting even bigger.
-
665.
-
666.
-
667.
But really… Is it even going to work? You're not exactly familiar with this building, and it's not like you'll be able to comfortably try several directions at your size. Also, the maps on the wall are way too small to read already… You fear you might go the wrong way and end up having the whole building collapse on you.
-
668.
-
669.
Instead, how about you use your formidable power in a creative way for once? To protect this place, you're going to make it more accommodating to you. With magic, yeah…
-
670.
-
671.
After making sure the place has been thoroughly evacuated, you let the power speak for you. Your horn flares with the light of the sun as your start to get bigger once more. However, this time your space isn't being reduced by the increase of size, for the place you're in growths even faster than you do. You can't help but to feel delighted at your own genius, or is it the use of magic speaking? You'll never know, but the museum is now big enough for you to crawl toward the exit. You can't help but to imagine the reactions of your subjects at the sight of the now all huge pieces of the museum. What once was an averagely cool dinosaur skeleton is now the mother of all T-rexes. You give a wink to the cool saurian before wiggling your way to the exit.
-
672.
-
673.
It's only when you're out in the museum than you realise how bad things really are.
-
674.
The perspective is simply unrecognizable, now. It feels like you're flying over the city, but still feeling your hooves on the ground, which gets you slightly light-headed. Only the museum looks like an honest to yourself building, but the rest of Canterlot is just a bunch of doll houses to you. And that's only because the capital fancies a rather aerial architecture. In reality, the ponies are becoming dangerously small to you. When a pegasus from the guard finally muster the courage to fly up and talk to you, he appears to be the size of a mere butterfly compared to your immensity. Trying to be as quiet as possible, you ask the pegasus where your sister is, as you're in dire need of sharing some height right now.
-
675.
-
676.
But however, the guard informs you Luna is not in Canterlot anymore. He reveals a message from Starlight Glimmer has arrived when you were inside the museum, bringing troubling news which brought Luna and Spike to leave in a hurry. The guard reads you the exact content of the scroll.
-
677.
"Princess Celestia!" The guard obviously has to shout to make himself heard, but it still feels like he's a mile away from your ears. "Something's wrong with Twilight. She hasn't slept all night, and she has stopped looking for a way to counter the adverse effects of the power on the sun. Instead, she told me she wanted to find ways to spread friendship though Equestria and beyond, and that the power she received will allow her to wield magic powerful enough to make the world a better place under her rule."
-
678.
-
679.
"I fear she might have become prey of the corruption you mentioned in your notes, princess. I humbly beg you to come to Ponyville as fast as possible so we may find a solution together. I'll be waiting at Sugar Cube Corner, where I'll also try to bring Twilight's friends."
-
680.
-
681.
This sounds bad… But maybe meeting Cadence and planning ahead before heading for Ponyville would be a good idea. At least to convince her to take some of your size in her…
-
682.
-
683.
-
684.
There's no time to waste! You simply take some time to send a messenger to explain the situation to Cadence before rushing to Ponyville, where Luna and Spike already are. Well, you'll do that as soon as you manage to quit Canterlot, which might prove to be a little tricky…
-
685.
In the end, you decide to simply take the air from where you stand, as you feel like any attempt at walking in the busy streets of Canterlot may end in a tragedy. You wince as you see a few of your guards being blown away by the formidable strength of your wind, and hope they're alright. But they've seen worst you think…
-
686.
-
687.
With the propelling power of your wings, it only takes a few minutes for you to fly toward the castle of the princess of friendship. As you arrive, you realise something is odd. And a little looking around soon allows you to find out what.
-
688.
-
689.
It's rather blatant once you've realised it, but Twilight's castle is way bigger than it should be, and its higher branches are still far above your head. While still far from being able to contain somepony your size, it seems the purple princess had the same idea as you did to accommodate her home to the new her.
-
690.
Which means there's a good sense she's inside, then…
-
691.
-
692.
"TWILIGHT!" You boom, and see the crystal construction shakes at your voice. It doesn't take long for the purple princess to come out, a huge smile on her face as she sees you. Twilight is several times as big as an average pony, but compared to your, she's barely bigger than the first time you met her as a foal. Except she does now has the body type of an adult, some wings, and a strange purple glow around herself…
-
693.
-
694.
"Princess Celestia, you came!" Your former student marvels at your size. "Woah! You're… You're amazing!"
-
695.
"I did not come to hear your flatteries, Twilight." You coldly greet her, but this does do anything to damper the stellar mood of your former student. "Starlight send me a very worrying letter in which she said you projected to put the world under your rule."
-
696.
"Oh, pfuh! Come on!" She dismisses the accusation with a wave of the hoof. Or… so you though she was gonna do. "That's a bit of a stretch! I'm not gonna ask for any recognition before I have actually made things better. It's only when I've shown the ways of friendship to the world than it would be natural for me to rule!"
-
697.
"Twilight, are you even listening to yourself?" You berate her "I accused you of trying to take over the world, and all you have to retort is that you don't plan on doing that RIGHT NOW?"
-
698.
-
699.
"But I'm gonna take over the world with friendship!" You student retorts like an evidence, still looking completely confident in herself. "Isn't that the whole point of the being the princess of friendship? I'll make things better for everyone! And they'll be safe with me, unlike with you. I mean, I've been pretty much saving Equestria alone for some time now. Hehe…"
-
700.
-
701.
Even though you know she's troubled, hearing these words from Twilight's mouth feels like an ice-cod shower over your whole body. You're not even angry, just… immensely saddened.
-
702.
"And in fact, I think you can help me make the world a better place, Celestia." The purple princess adds "All you have to do is feed me with some more of that sweet power of yours! I see you've got plenty right now, well, I'd gladly have it! It'll help get faster into making the world a better place!"
-
703.
-
704.
-
705.
"Hold on Twilight… Where is Luna?"
-
706.
"Luna? Eh… She came earlier yeah." Twilight shrugs "She said roughly the same things as you did, but then she left. I don't know where she went, I have way more important things to care about."
-
707.
-
708.
Wait a second, you're not sure since all your size references are out of the window, especially after Twilight grew her castle, but it isn't impossible the purple princess might be a little bigger than last time you say her. You doubt Luna would have given in, so if your hunch is true, Twilight must have siphoned her without her consent then.
-
709.
And that purple glow… it reminds you of when you gave Twilight some of your power. Using any kind of magic is out of the question right now…
-
710.
-
711.
But then… that leaves completely out of options other than trying to convince her out of this folly…
-
712.
"I'm disappointed Twilight, but not surprised." You coldly say. "But I must remind you, Friendship by nature can't be an imperious force. It has many vital virtues, but control isn't one of them. I hope you will eventually-"
-
713.
-
714.
"Alright, alright, I get it…" Your former student cuts you, rolling her eyes at your patronizing speech "You're just jealous I'm gonna do way better than you ever did. Okay, I know, it's not very good for the ego, but I have good hope you'll understand when you'll see the results. I know you're better that this, Celestia. Now, if you don't intent to actually do anything, excuse me but I've got some cutting-edge magical friendship magic to spread!"
-
715.
And in a blink of teleportation, the princess simply disappears, probably inside her castle.
-
716.
-
717.
-
718.
For a second you think about trying to subside the rogue princess with brute strength, striking so fast and hard no level of magical absorption will shield her from your wrath… but you prefer to keep that kind of recklessness as a last resort.
-
719.
-
720.
But you fear your former student may be smart enough to find a power source like yours if she really puts her mind to it. You hope you won't regret not taking her down while she was still in the realm of theory…
-
721.
-
722.
Instead, you start to search for Twilight's friends. Starlight did mention Sugar Cube Corner as a meeting point. On the short way to the bakery, you think about a devious plan, and to send your most fearless lawyers and prosecutors to attack Twilight for illegal territorial claim. She may not surrender to the law, but you're pretty sure you can keep her mind away from doing something meaningful for some time with this method.
-
723.
-
724.
You don't even have to knock on the door of the bakery, your step having for long warned the ponies inside of your arrival. Starlight, Applejack, Fluttershy, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Spike and your sister Luna, they're all here. And while they gasp at your mountainous size, you see Luna has shrunk back to her original height. It appears your hunch about Twilight was true…
-
725.
-
726.
"Sorry…" You start to whisper to the tiny ponies bellow. "I tried to talk with Twilight, but she didn't listen to me."
-
727.
"It is already a relief you didn't try to use your magic on her, sister!" Luna shouts back, at a strangely satisfying volume. "Be careful, any attempt at using magic against her will allow her to absorb all of the sun's power inside you!"
-
728.
-
729.
"Yeah, I was just going to tell her she's going crazy!" A Rainbow Dash flies up in front of your nose. "I can't believe Twilight's going mental again! I thought she was done with that kind of behaviour for years!"
-
730.
The other ponies bellow nod, adding their own ideas about how to put Twilight on the right path again, although you can't exactly make out everything they're saying… You hope they can make a difference, because all you can do to help them is trying to give them leads about what to say to Twilight. Maybe experiences they had…
-
731.
For now, you still instruct Spike to send the message to your direst lawyers, in the hope of slowing Twilight down in her research.
-
732.
-
733.
"I hope you'll be able to reach to her." You tell the tiny ponies. "Also, is Discord around?"
-
734.
"Uhm… Fluttershy say she got a card from him." Starlight answers after listening to the quiet pony. "He's hiking around Griffonstone right now it seems…"
-
735.
-
736.
-
737.
You try to think of a plan, something you could do yourself. Perhaps recharging your sister could be a good idea? And Cadence too once she's here. You, Luna and her would have a serious chance against Twilight if things went south.
-
738.
-
739.
But is it the way to go, then? Since Twilight can absorb it all, then does the balance of magic power even matters? But… wait a second, who said Twilight had to be the only one to possess that ability? A plan starts to form in your mind.
-
740.
"Luna! I've got an idea." You say. "What if we tried to use Twilight's own spell against her! If she could steal your power, then there's a chance we can steal hers! Let's experiment, I'm sure we can figure it out. Maybe it's not very complicated!"
-
741.
-
742.
Your sister starts to ponder. "Yes… That's a possibility. And there's a good chance Twilight will become herself again if we can purge the power out of her. But… I am not fond at the idea of experimenting more with the sun's power…" You sister says "We haven't fallen to these passions yet, but that's why I'd like to avoid being arrogant, and not play with fire."
-
743.
"But what, then?"
-
744.
-
745.
You sister smiles mischievously. It looks like she's got a plan of her own.
-
746.
"Twilight is an organized pony." She explains. "She probably laid on paper the nature of her spell. So rather than to do the work again, we could take hers. Since Twilight hasn't seen Cadence yet, perhaps she could sneak in and steal the information while we distract Twilight!"
-
747.
"Stealing something?" You all turn to see the princess of Love who just arrived by the air. "Now that's an odd thing for the princess of love to do. But with the…" The pink alicorn shows a nervous grin at your stature "…with the… PROPORTIONS this ordeal took, I'm not going to say no if that's what we're going with."
-
748.
-
749.
"No, I think Cadence should talk to her." You declare. "Twilight obviously won't listen to me or Luna since we failed once already, but Cadence is much closer as a family member to Twilight. I shall take that from Twilight myself."
-
750.
"Ahem… you plan on sneaking in?" Luna asks ironically.
-
751.
"As a matter of fact, I do." You nod. "Cadence, you'll be taking my power."
-
752.
"Wh-wha…" The princess of love looks nervous all of a sudden "Alright. B-but that means I'm gonna be as big as you are?"
-
753.
-
754.
"Yes, and I think you should tell Twilight you're interested in her project, and that love even more than friendship deserves to be spread across the world."
-
755.
"So… we're just giving up on talking Twilight out of this?" Rainbow Dash asks.
-
756.
"Twilight has too much of an advantage on us." You declare "Even if we mean to talk, let's make sure Twilight doesn't have the power to end it in a single spell first. Now come on everypony. Let's save our beloved friend!"
-
757.
And to emphasise, you decide to scoop all these little ponies into a gigantic hug. Which… proves to be a little undermining from your perspective, as you only feel a tickle on your chest. But at least, the cheers of your tiny friend who seem to appreciate the gesture warm you heart.
-
758.
-
759.
You all decide to move away from Ponyville before you transfer Cadence your power, hiding behind a hill. Also, that way there will be a slight chance Twilight doesn't see you coming from a mile away…
-
760.
-
761.
"Are you ready Cadence?" You ask.
-
762.
"I am…" She says, not sounding very ready, but still she casts her spell, engulfing you in her magic glow.
-
763.
-
764.
What is it, the third time now? You still don't like it one bit, but still you allow... a real tidal wave of power to escape from you. With how big you are, you witness that any energy you're giving up is an instant flood of magic, and you fail to make it any smaller since Cadence pretty much controls the flow of power once it has begun.
-
765.
-
766.
You don't understand the risk, and when the flood hits her, Cadence immediately lets out a scream of pure pleasure as she literally explodes in size. The other ponies have to run away as she doubles, triples, and quadruples in volume in the blink of an eye. Cadence has visibly lost any kind of control over herself, her back ached as the bucks the air and her face plastered with an expression of mind-numbing ecstasy.
-
767.
-
768.
But then, something else happens. The discomfort you have from been siphoned fades away, and instead the power inside you roars like thunder. You would have purred in satisfaction, if you didn't realise in horror the implication of the hellfire inside you refusing to be extinguished anymore. Despite the ludicrous amount of power you're giving Cadence, your shrinking crawls to a halt, and you start to get even bigger again! Even though the princess of love is ascending as a much faster rate. But if you're not shrinking and that Cadence won't stop… That means this spell could go on forever!
-
769.
-
770.
"C-CADENCE! Stop the spell at once!" You shout, forcing all the tiny ponies around to painfully cover their ears. But the pink alicorn only answers with an orgasmic moan, and she's still getting bigger! She's gonna reach your size in a matter of seconds!
-
771.
-
772.
-
773.
You've got to stop this fast, and knocking out the princess of love is the only solution you can think about right now.
-
774.
-
775.
In the storm of sensations, you clumsily pounce on the growing pink alicorn. But closing up has an effect you didn't anticipate. The flow of magic compresses toward the princess of love on your impulse, and she lets out another scream of pure sexual bliss as she balloons up instantly. Aiming at her horn a second ago, you collide with and alicorn as big as yourself, sending the two of you rolling backward, hitting the ground with what's an earth-shattering boom for the small ponies bellow.
-
776.
-
777.
You end up on top of a hot, rapidly filling water mattress, squirming while it moans lewdly. The body contact seem to have increased the flow again, so you have to be quick. You lunge forward, and hit Cadence's chin with a powerful head-butt. (with the side of the head for obvious horn-hazard reasons)
-
778.
-
779.
Finally, the debauchery of magic comes to a halt. The hit shook Cadence enough for her to stop her spell, but still, both your sizes are a challenge to the mind now. You don't think you've grown that much yourself, but the average ponies bellow are starting to be frighteningly small to you. You don't think you can make out their face expressions properly right now, although your money is somewhere between shocked and terrified.
-
780.
-
781.
But Cadence is a whole other story. The princess of love has become over twice your own size. Lying flaton her chest, your hooves barely go over her crotch, which is still under tropical climate right now… Normal ponies must look like flies to her, and you're peeking over the hill you hoped to use a hiding place from merely resting on top of her lying body.
-
782.
-
783.
Your thoughts are interrupted as Cadence starts to press your body against hers with one hoof, locking you in place. And before you can react, the princess of love takes your mouth into a slobbering kiss. Your eyes go wide and you let out a muffled exclamation as her powerful tongue forces its way into your mouth. The muscle is enormous, and greedily explores every square inch of your maw, coating it with the erotic taste of the love Princess. Cadence produces small rhythmic moans as she keeps ramming her plush lips into yours, visibly enjoying the one-sided waltz of your tongues, and your own mind is being getting buzzed by the incredibly intense experience, the afterglow of the magic flow still is firing your pleasure receptors.
-
784.
With a wet *smack* of saliva, Cadence suddenly releases your mouth, allowing both of you to pant heavily while starring in each-other's lust filled eyes.
-
785.
-
786.
"Oh… Celestia…" She moans in a haze of lust. "I've never felt this… HOT! You've got to give me more! I want… I need more! More power! More size! More everything! FOREVER! Mmh!"
-
787.
Cadence forcibly takes control of your mouth again, while her other hoof moves to her burning crotch. You own privates are getting wet from the overwhelming sexual tension. And you feel the resistance of your mind thaw under the ministrations of the princess of love.
-
788.
-
789.
-
790.
Your face is burning in delight as your lust-clouded brain starts to give in under the overwhelming snog of the pink princess. After all, what evil is there in revelling in the most mind-blowing sexual experience of the millennia? Even if Cadence had left you a choice, you'd be a fool to refuse such an offer. And while you're here, indulging with Cadence, she's not threatening anypony, just satisfying both your humongous lusts while not putting anypony in danger.
-
791.
-
792.
You close your eyes, and meekly attempt to wrestle Cadence's tongue with your own. A lost battle, but the mere acts of resisting and pushing back on the lips of the princess of love allows both of you put more energy, more passion in this mind-blowing kiss. Your nethers are burning with arousal by now, and you wish Cadence is soon gonna let you take care of your aching marehood.
-
793.
Oh, yes… That's a good way to keep her busy… Or so you thought, until a particularly passionate swirl of tongue makes you shiver with raw pleasure… and grow in a spurt. Your eyes go wide as the spike of pleasure is immediately followed by a cold shower, reason and worry flowing back into your mind as you realise the situation is not nearly as under control as your thought.
-
794.
-
795.
"Hmm?" Cadence produces a quizzical moan, and with a wet pop she frees your mouth, to show you a big, motherly smile. "Oh, Celestia, finally you've decided to give me what I want." she coos lustfully despite your horrified, but still deeply flushed face. "Don't worry, I'm gonna make you feel so good… And we'll keep pleasuring each other until the end of time, always reaching greater heights, greater realms of ecstasy thanks to your marvellous gift. Come on now, Celestia, it's time to make me reach cloud nine…"
-
796.
-
797.
Before you can catch your breath, the pink alicorn takes you in the glow of her magic once again, meaning any growth you might experience right now will go right to her.
-
798.
"L-Luna!" You hurriedly call toward the tiny ponies bellow, while Cadence switches your position to make you face away from her head. "You've got to take Cadence's magic, quick! I don't think I'll be able to hold on for loOOOOOHNG!"
-
799.
-
800.
You let out an orgasmic scream as Cadence has decided to finally tend your awaiting flower. For that, she made you lie flat on her chest once more. There, a mere lick with that prodigious tongue of hers fired all the pleasure receptors of your lips, clit and anus at once. In the haze of the mind-numbing of arousal which follows, a cold sweat among all the hot blood tells you're at the complete mercy of the princess of love, only a few touches away from feeding her with the WHOLE power of the sun, making her grow and grow and GROW until she shadows all of Equestria with her form. And the worst part, is that such a thought somewhat arouses you ever further, as you know all too well how delightful unleashing the torrent of magic will make both of you feel.
-
801.
-
802.
And the princess of love seems to be going right for that scenario. You let out another scream of pure ecstasy as her tongue penetrates your lower lips. If the former experience was a blast of unknown intensity, what you're going through redefines the most basic notions of the pleasure of the flesh as you know them.
-
803.
Cadence's huge tongue is filling love canal like the member of a stallion, while still undulating like a living snake of flesh, hunting for the most sensible spots of your marehood. You're incapable of any rational thought by now, and the dam keeping the sun's energy inside is being washed away like a sand castle.
-
804.
-
805.
You definitely lose control when the pink alicorn retreats her tongue to suckle aggressively on your little clit. The electroshock gets rid of your last remain of self-consciousness, and your whole body answers by glutting both itself and Cadence with power.
-
806.
Your worries are gone by that point, and all you can do is let out a howl of pleasure in unison with Cadence as she undergoes a huge growth spurt, her body rumbling as it suddenly expands in all directions, propelling you higher in the air, now smaller than a foal to the massive princess of love.
-
807.
-
808.
"YES" Cadence moans triumphally "We're finally getting started! I'm gonna milk your dry of that power, Celsetia. And you're gonna love every second of it!"
-
809.
The pink alicorn then eagerly thrusts her tongue inside you once more. But the muscle is now bigger, and your mouth opens to let out a silent scream of pleasure as you're filled to the brim with the squirming, powerful muscle, whose buds can reach and massage each and every corner of your pussy better than any cock of Equestria.
-
810.
Without hesitation, you feed it more. You actually start to pump more power in Cadence, growing the magnificent tongue inside you even huger. Despite how tight you're getting, Cadence still manages to swirl her billowing tongue inside you, sending you in a realm of carnal pleasures you never dared to dream about.
-
811.
The tongue grows, bigger, bigger, you need it bigger! Your whole pussy is stretched to the breaking point, but it's not enough! The tip is gonna burst into your womb, but you want more! Cadence probably couldn't penetrate you with her tongue if it wasn't inside already, but she has to fill you more. More, until you burst, until you're taken by the biggest climax of the century! You feel yourself getting closer, your pleasure growing along the monster of a cock inside you. Closer to the best orgasm Equestria has ever witnessed, and that you're about to experience!
-
812.
-
813.
But, however, the release never comes…
-
814.
-
815.
Probably seconds before you culminate, Cadence suddenly pulls out her tongue to let out a displeased grunt. And you soon realise the princess of love is shrinking under you.
-
816.
"N-no..." You let out a weak complain as you think of that tongue which will no longer be big enough to satisfy you, but then your mind is struck by something else.
-
817.
-
818.
In an earthly rumble, you see the blushing face of Luna grow past you, and keep ascending further and further. There, you start to comprehend how big you and Cadence were. Reflexively, you clumsily stand on your legs as the princess of love finishes to shrink under you, visibly drained of all energy.
-
819.
-
820.
Your perspective has completely changed once again. The hill you could previously hide behind doesn't even come up to your knees anymore, which is still better than trees or building, while could respectively be mere grass or tiny models to you. You see little bits of colour bellow, which you realise are Twilight's friends, who now look like literal ants to you. You can probably forget about trying to have a conversation with them…
-
821.
-
822.
Your contemplation ends when a tremor shakes the land, caused but your sister who dropped her rump on the ground. She now has her head literally in the clouds. She's something like five, or six times as big as you are, and simply trying to apprehend her size throws you in a daze. The ground under you continues to shake slightly, as your sister squirms uncomfortably, the reason of her embarrassment quite obvious from her reddened face and repressed lewd huffs.
-
823.
"Sister…" Luna lets out between two loud, lustful moans. "My… This… power is intoxicating… *pant* in ways I didn't expect… *pant* And… S-sister, you're still growing!"
-
824.
-
825.
Luna was right. Even freed from the sexual assault and somewhat back in the realm of rationality, being denied let you yearning hard for release, and your body is too needy to stop feeding itself with the pleasure of increased power. In small jolts of size and pleasure, you're slowly growing your way into sizes more suited to measure landmarks than ponies.
-
826.
-
827.
"What the hell is going on here?!!" Both you and Luna turn at the unexpected visitor. Twilight, despite looking as small as a mouse to you, has come flying to berate you and your sister with barely more than her angry squeak of a voice. Her face looks enraged, but is also flustered beyond anything you've even seen on your former student's face.
-
828.
"Are you all out of your mind?!! You could have crushed my friends! How irresponsible can you be?!"
-
829.
-
830.
-
831.
"S-sorry about that. I suppose…" You say absently, most of your brain focussed on finding a way to get you off. "Why don't you cast a shrinking spell on me, Twilight?"
-
832.
-
833.
"Urrh!" The purple princess groans "It's not that simple and you know it! How about you face what you've done instead of…" She looks away embarrassedly. "trying to… touch yourself! This is definitely not the time for this!"
-
834.
-
835.
"Twilight, are you supposed to be the princess of prudishness? Mmh!" You moan and surge upward as your hoof find a particularly sensitive spot on your flower " Because I think this will be your title from now on."
-
836.
"Alright, you're insane." Twilight declares, and start to charge her horn. "At least you're so absorbed in playing around I should have no trouble putting your power to a much better use."
-
837.
-
838.
"Look who's talking!" You smirk, and effortlessly scoop the purple princess in your hoof. Her concentration is broken. It's like she didn't even think you could actually lay your hoof on her. "You're the one talking about ruling the world but somewhat letting a little steam off means I'm crazy? You know, I think I know how you could make my world better." You show her a depraved grin, and the tiny princess in your hoof recoils in fear at your sight. You grow a little more from the anticipation of what you're about to do with her.
-
839.
"There's a place of mine which could really use somepony your size, Twilight…"
-
840.
-
841.
"Sister!" Luna's voice booms over you. "This is getting too far, we mustn't give it to these lowly urges!"
-
842.
And before you can react, a massive dark blue hoof comes smacking the back of your head, making you drop the princess of friendship. Luna then grabs you by the waist and holds you against her, before teleporting both of you away.
-
843.
-
844.
Next thing you know, you're crashing into ice-cold water. In your surprise, some get in your mouth and you're incapable to swim in your confusion. But luckily, a big firm hoof picks you up and takes you out of the water.
-
845.
You're somewhere in the north, as the floe and icy wind testifies. Wait… or are these icebergs? This desolate sea somewhat manages to make you forget your size, as you're got absolutely no reference around. Well, except for Luna who's still several times bigger than you are.
-
846.
-
847.
"Sorry, it is the only way I could think of to take us out of this situation." Luna says, as she places you on her head. Unlike you, you sister seems to reach the bottom with her hooves. Even though your fur and skin are much thicker, you're still shivering, and the heat in your loins has been sapped significantly.
-
848.
"We should be a few miles away from Vanhoover. That's the only thing I could think of to calm you down, sister."
-
849.
-
850.
-
851.
"A very nice place you chose." You comment while you nest inside the mass of hair of your sister. Despite the nightly theme of her mane, this is place of the utmost comfort and pleasantly warm.
-
852.
"It's calm, and it remind me of the good old days." You say and start to nuzzle Luna's gigantic ear. "When there was just the two of us, no Discord, no power-hungry Twilight, just the limitless adoration of our subjects…"
-
853.
-
854.
But before you start nipping on your sister's ear, her magic envelops you and lifts you in front of her.
-
855.
"Sister, I need you to stay focussed!" A pleading Luna says "I know it's hard, but now is not the time to stay idle. We can't shrink you down it appears, so we've got to find a solution as soon as possible. We're heading right into a corner!"
-
856.
-
857.
"Of course, we're gonna freeze to death if we don't find a solution." You nod to yourself "Let me take care of it."
-
858.
Your horn lights up, and already the cold is chased away by the raging fire inside you. But you've got to make sure it lasts, for you and Luna. You spell makes both of you shine in a bright yellow aura, and you make sure you and your sister are perfectly protected from the elements!
-
859.
By the time you're finished, you're feeling a lot better and you're looking at your sister in the eyes. But she looks greatly saddened by your actions.
-
860.
-
861.
"Celestia, P-please…" She seems on the verge of tears. "I hate to see you like that. I… have no idea what to do right now, or how this is all gonna end. This is the time where you would devise a plan to fix everything. And yet you're… This is not the Celestia I know…"
-
862.
-
863.
-
864.
She's right…
-
865.
Even though you made a good impression on the citizens of Ponyville, everything after that has been terrible. You've only been fooling around, making it hard for everypony else, and you even ended up putting Twilight's friends in danger. If anything, she was right to be angry at you. And now you're making your very sister cry.
-
866.
-
867.
This has to cease.
-
868.
-
869.
"I'm sorry Luna." You say and take a deep breath. "I'll make things right."
-
870.
-
871.
You focus on the link you have with the sun. Not with the apprehension of your first attempt, or like the frivolous summons you've been multiplying recently.
-
872.
No, this time you're here because the sun shall obey your will. Instead of letting the sun's arrogance blind you to the consequences of your acts, you'll use this strength to take full control of the situation. It's time your fulfilled your original purpose, and truly became Sol Invictus, guardian of your mother land Equestria.
-
873.
-
874.
The power of the sun looks as infinitely bright as usual. Even after all you've taken, the mass of energy still looks infinite from your perspective. But now, you also shine with that power yourself… and so does Luna, and even Twilight. In the realm of magic, it looks like she's right next to you.
-
875.
It's so simple, no matter where it is, this power is still the one of the sun, and you can simply claim it by birth right.
-
876.
-
877.
Twilight meant well when she offered to share the power, but the fewer who wield it the better. You'll start by making this right.
-
878.
You hear Luna make a surprised moan as the power leaves her, and you start to grow even more absurd heights while she shrinks in front of you. In the distance, you feel Twilight resisting your pull, but like a mere comet in the face of a star, she can't hold her ground against your imperious command on the solar magic.
-
879.
-
880.
Before she gets too small, you scoop Luna in a benevolent hoof and place her in your mane. And you do good, as you don't believe she's any thicker than a single one of your hairs when you've done growing into the titanic herald of the sun on this planet.
-
881.
-
882.
The landforms make little sense to you anymore, as even the tallest icebergs look like ice cubes in front of you. You once read the seas of the north were between three and five hundred meters deep, and yet the water doesn't even reach your belly anymore. Right now, you must be the size of a literal mountain. But you're no useless rock, and instead you're filled to the brim with the burning power of life itself.
-
883.
-
884.
Besides, it feels like you've got past a certain threshold now. Your power is so great, knowledge and incantations are losing their meaning to you, and your raw will alone can shape reality itself to some extent. You are a being so powerful, so great that your mere thoughts may unleash enough power to reshape the face of Equestria to your wishes. This is the power you have right now.
-
885.
The coast is also visible at the horizon, the bits of light you see here probably being Vanhoover.
-
886.
-
887.
-
888.
Then it's time to become more manageable once again.
-
889.
You concentrate your power, and press it inside you to reduce the size of your body. From a magma of power, the magic inside start to truly become the matter of a very star, blinding by its intensity to those who cannot understand its might.
-
890.
-
891.
When you're done reducing yourself, you've become an angel of pure light, your body shining like the day, only the colours of your mane and eyes visible in the storm of brightness.
-
892.
It feels like star mater is flowing throw your veins, and your size is only… about twice as big as Luna. A fact which she sounds ecstatic about.
-
893.
-
894.
"S-sister! You've done it!" Luna exclaims. "You've…"
-
895.
But her expression goes to worry again.
-
896.
-
897.
Indeed, keeping this compressed form reacquires energy from you, and as such you're very slowly growing once more. In your current state, it only represents about an in a minute, but your unleashed form must be on its way to the mile mark.
-
898.
-
899.
-
900.
"I'm not sure if trying to do that was…" A pair of sunglasses materialize on your face. "Very bright!"
-
901.
-
902.
But sadly, your genius trait of humour is only met with the lone whispering of the arctic wind, and a cold glare from Luna who's flying in front of you.
-
903.
Alas, you can't give her what she hopes for. The power of the sun shoots out like a hose which you can only try to stop with your bare hooves. Blowing water back inside is still out of the question. And it will probably remain so until… half of the sun is inside you?
-
904.
-
905.
Still, your new magic may allow you options you didn't have before, even though being completely straightforward will not work. But maybe you could find something with a little imagination.
-
906.
-
907.
Also, Cadence and Twilight both lost all magic they stole from you, so there's a good chance they're back to normal, and willing to help once again.
-
908.
And you're back at a manageable size to interact with them, for now…
-
909.
-
910.
But… Maybe it's time to call it quits.
-
911.
-
912.
You've been fooling around so much, and yet you've only made things go crazy each time you tried to wiggle your way out of this predicament.
-
913.
It's decided. You actually have a solution for this whole mess, and you're gonna use it. It is so crazy, but at the same time, the other options are becoming increasingly more dangerous too, so with that plan at least you know what you'll be going through.
-
914.
-
915.
You're gonna make all the power of the sun yours, and use it to make everything back to normal again. And while this perspective should fill you with fear, you can't help but to feel excited about what you're about to do. Indeed, this pleasure you've refused yourself for so long, you're about to dive and fully embrace it.
-
916.
And despite the arctic winds you feel your face flush, and your loins heat up once again, the fire in your blood promising you heavenly pleasures which have been kept out of your grasp for too long.
-
917.
-
918.
Your horn lights up, and Luna disappears, tucked away in a fold of time and space of yours. An act which doesn't enlarge you further, as somewhat accepting the flow inside you tamed it, as the sun now knows its power shall fulfil its purpose or grandeur very soon. So does the rest of the ponies, dragons, griffons and other living creatures of Equestria, vanishing for what's going to be an instant for them, as you must shield them from what you're about to do with the world.
-
919.
There is, however, two ponies who deserve to be a part of your plan…
-
920.
-
921.
In the hall of Twilight's castle, the princesses of Love and Friendship gasp as you materialize near them, a predatory grin on your face.
-
922.
"Celestia!" Twilight calls with a smile, but as she sees your stern face, the uneasiness takes over the relief of seeing your not too huge from "You're… back."
-
923.
-
924.
You do not answer them. After all they've done, it is their burden to answer to you. But both their meek expressions seem to point out they're in the right state of mind. After exchanging a look with Twilight, Cadence speaks up.
-
925.
"Princess Celestia…" She addresses you more formally than she usually does. A good point. "I'm… We're deeply sorry." Both the princesses both, before Cadence continues to speak "We've both succumbed to passions which endangered everypony around us. And the fact our intentions were noble does not excuse our respective betrayals. We can only hope you'll ever forgive us, Princess Celestia."
-
926.
"Your words are true." You state as an answer, no sympathy for the two ponies in your voice. "But I think your actions deserve more than mere apologies."
-
927.
-
928.
Twilight and her sister-in-law exchange a worried glance once more, but seem ready to accept whatever you have in for them.
-
929.
"I may be ready to forgive both your crimes…" You start, unable to repress a smirk at this point "Only if you can serve me right today."
-
930.
"We'll do anything!" Cadence says, and Twilight nods with determination.
-
931.
"Good." You grin further. "Cadence. I never got release from earlier. I want you to finish what you're started. Twilight, you're gonna help."
-
932.
-
933.
As the meaning of your words dawn on them, the two alicorns start to gawk as they can't believe their ears.
-
934.
"P-princess Celestia…" A bright red Twilight stammers "You can't mean…"
-
935.
"I do not think you're in any place to discuss. Both of you." You coldly answer. "If it wasn't for you being two of my closest friends, your actions would have warranted me to banish you out of Equestria for all eternity. And your better believe I have the means to achieve that right now. So you should consider yourself lucky. Being taken out of your comfort zone is a small price to pay for what you've done." You start to walk up to Cadence, until you're towering right in front of the princess of Love.
-
936.
-
937.
You grin.
-
938.
"And I even intend to help you in this task."
-
939.
-
940.
In a sweet irony, it's your turn to force a rough snog on the princess of Love. Cadence lets out a muffled gasp as it's now your tongue which forces its way past the lips of the little princess. The poor thing's maw is so tight and warm your tongue is filling her mouth completely. If she didn't squirm under you you might have feared you were suffocating her. You continue molesting her tongue, feeling the princess of love getting hotter and hotter under your overwhelming kiss.
-
941.
However, that end of the snog isn't as rewarding as you anticipated. And even thought the sweetness of her taste is delectable, Cadence can't put up any resistance, and you explore her maw in a matter of seconds. Also, it's too early to get really rough…
-
942.
-
943.
But at least, you've visibly turned Cadence on with that. And when your lips separate in a wet *pop*, she nearly collapses in a moaning mess of a princess. Now you can probably put her to good use while you take care of Twilight.
-
944.
The purple princess simply sits speechless in front of your display with Cadence, her hooves clamped in front of her loins. She's petrified, her back against a wall, and her face redder than any pepper. The poor thing… Unlike Cadence, she has little experience with the pleasures of flesh. A part of her education you didn't meddle with. Until today.
-
945.

"Twilight..." The purple princess jumps as you lusciously pronounce her name, before slowing walking to her. "Have you ever pleasured a mare before?"
-
947.
Your student starts to fiddle uncomfortably, and only mumbles a couple of incoherent sounds.
-
948.
You roll your eyes. Yes, friendship is nice, but it is a little disappointing to see Twilight has yet to discover this side of relationships. Although, initiating her to sensuousness does sound exciting.
-
949.
"Then have you ever pleasure yourself before?" You ask.
-
950.
This time, Twilight lets out a small*eep!* as she's been found out. You can't refrain licking your lips in anticipation.
-
951.
-
952.
"There is no need to be afraid, Twilight." You lie on your side, your head still standing taller than the purple princess. "What happens here will forever be a secret between us. Cadence?" You turn to the pink princess, who has started to play with herself while your left her. "Come here…" Thus, you place a powerful slap on your massive backside, sending a jiggle and a ripple which shakes the whole room.
-
953.
"…And service me."
-
954.
-
955.
Cadence immediately obeys, and rushes to take care of your loins. While she starts to massage your ample cheeks, you turn back to Twilight.
-
956.
"Alright, Twilight." You purr "Let's start with the basics."
-
957.
You scoop the purple princess in our hooves, and press her onto the fluff of your chest. She doesn't even dare to move, but you're pleased to feel her loins are already slightly wet. You start to gently pet her back with your massive hooves. This gesture could have been rather innocent, if you didn't continue far down her tiny form to her butt. Once again, your new size turns out a little frustrating, as the plush of the purple princess is rather laking from your perspective.
-
958.
-
959.
It is when you were starting to question if these two shrimps were actually qualified to please your giant libido than Cadence decides to get rid of those doubts.
-
960.
You first shiver delightfully as the princess of love has decided to use her tongue on your folds, but immediately after, you gasp lustfully as she uses her magic on your most sensible parts. You do not know what kind of spell she's using, but it's like a thousand little lightning bolts have started to fall on your lips and clit, sending as many thrumming spasms of pleasure through your body. Such an influx of senses makes your body swell once more, the bliss of you increasing power responding and adding to the pleasures of your flesh, rapidly clouding your mind from any kind of reason.
-
961.
-
962.
The poor Twilight is being squished against your increasingly massive form, so you decide to put her in a safer spot. And in the haze of your lust, that comes off as putting her in inside tour anus. Yes, indeed, the need for pleasuring your other hole might have more determinant that Twilight's safety in that plan…
-
963.
Still under Cadence's masterful ministrations, you feverishly bring the purple pony, in too much of a daze to react, to the royal plot. You moan as you roughly press her on the sensitive ring of flesh of your backside, her meek resistance only sending an additional tingling of pleasure to you, which only serves to make the entry of her soon-to-be prison bigger. By that point, you're filling half of Twilight's hall, and still growing strong. The purple princess is the perfect size for the use you have for her, and you intend to make it count while you can.
-
964.
-
965.
You push her mercilessly. Of course, she tries to run fly away, but her lower half is already trapped where the sun never shines. Slowly, gently, your inner muscles lusciously suck her in like quicksand, making Twilight's squirming more desperate, which only brings you more pleasure, and thus making your anal cavity bigger, stronger to lock her in through a delightful circle of depravation. You moan faster and louder as you feel Twilight disappear inside you, the thought of the absurd lewdness of what you've just done turning you on as much as the kicks of the poor Twilight inside of you.
-
966.
A fact which Cadence understands, as she starts to go all out on you. While until now, she focussed on the outer parts of your sex, her magic suddenly breaks in your love cave and sends an electric tidal wave inside. The feeling is incredible, a shocking and powerful spike of ecstasy reverberating from your pussy inside your whole body, which makes your mind go blank.
-
967.
-
968.
All the windows of the castle shatter as you let out an all-powerful scream of pure lust as you explode in size. You hit the four walls of the hall at once, as you're growing several feet each second right now, and still accelerating exponentiannly. The feeling of growth is simply maddening, by now fuelling your lust as much, then more than Cadence. The power filling you transforms all your body in a permanent, thrumming erotic zone which the magic stimulates like the touch of the most expert stallions, and soon the most powerful orgasm of all Equestria crashes down on you.
-
969.
Your whole body climaxes harder that the impact of a meteor, every cell or your being jolting and ringing at perfect pitch with the primal howl of sexual perfection you've just achieved.
-
970.
-
971.
But you need more. You can get more. SO much MORE.
-
972.
-
973.
Twilight's castle explodes in a cloud of dust, and a second later you're standing as tall as it did, and the next you're looming over all Ponyville while the earth shakes under your exponentially increasing mass. Cadence no longer has anything to do with your godly pleasure. The power of the sun is no longer flowing into you, no, you're absorbing it. You're dominating the star, and sucking its infinite power inside you. And with the more power you have, the more you can siphon from the sun to power your ascension to eternally brighter realms of sexual delirium, growing bigger than the whole world.
-
974.
-
975.
The pathetic houses of Ponyville are crushed under you, the trees of the Everfree bends under you weight, Canterlot falls as your cyclopean backside topples the whole mountain. Your hooves meet an ocean, but it's a mere pond to you. Endless tracks of land are smothered under your flesh, which size is now completely inconceivable to a pony's mind, until the very land gives up on containing you.
-
976.
Howling in pure pleasure, shaking in and endless loop of orgasmic bliss, your body escapes the pull of the now too small planet, still growing as it absorbs the infinite power of the sun and allowing you to grow bigger, bigger, and always bigger, propelling you in a perpetual climax, brighter, huger, and more powerful than any star, for aeons to come.
-
977.
-
978.
A few aeons later, you finally come down to your senses, nested in the void of space, surrounded only by the distant stars of your sister. Equestria is no more, turned to dust in the violence of your ascension. There only you. Brighter than the day, and finally complete, the sun being united inside you. Its power is yours, and the very fabric of magic is at your orders. Only a thought will turn everything back to normal, and bring back Equestria like it always was.
-
979.
-
980.
But… Before you do that, perhaps you're gonna enjoy your godly stature for a little longer…
-
981.
-
982.
THE END.
