Meet Twilight Dream! She is the matriarch of the Twilight family. She was known as a solitary but kind magician, who was able to grant wishes through spells that she developed on her own and preferred to keep hidden, away from prying eyes.
Not much is known about her life, as she quite enjoyed her fame of being a particularly mysterious unicorn. She is a figure surrounded by secrecy, and yet she still is considered an important pillar of Old Ponyland's history.
Some of her scrolls were passed down to her kin, surviving to this day and becoming the family's precious treasure, containing many strange secrets they refuse to share.
Hey there! I had this idea in my head for a while, and I wanted to do something with it!
This is a little series about the Twilight family! G4 Twilight came from quite a line of scholars of the magical arts, which was a big part of her upbringing. This line starts with G1 Twilight and ends on G4. Her family is pretty ancient but I'm focused on the more notable characters (and by that I mean actual ponies from the toy line)
I came out of the dead to join in this fun ych! Long time no see!
I wrote some lore to accompany it. It might be too long so I'll put under the read more!
Story
For the first time ever, little Rootkit mustered up the courage to finally leave camp. It wasn't exactly hard, since there was no one to stop, nor notice her missing, anymore.
However, it didn't take long for her to get lost, despite trying to stick to the path her clanmates left in the forest floor, made by the paws of generations of Hymnclanners. It doesn't help she felt watched by the shadows, the trees hiding whatever was stalking her.
The forest is not the place for a little kitten.
She panicked, and rushed to hide in the first spot she found, a small bush, just big enough for her to crawl under and pray to StarClan, pray to her family, to take her back home.
The forest grew silent. The wind held its breath in horror. Rootkit laid on the dirt as low as she could.
She hid there for a while.
She felt sore after crouching for so long, she was hungry, cold, and alone. Maybe it was safe to take a peek?
Still low, with her whiskers touching the ground, she poked her head outside to look around.
Someone was there. Standing right next to her.
There was a cat, or at least it looked like one. Enormous, and shrouded in darkness. It was no ordinary feline, it felt out of place, like an intruder to a land it never belonged.
It's face was hidden behind a blinding mask of light, and their fur glittered like the clearest night sky.
But this wasn't a StarClan warrior. It wasn't the savior she prayed for.
She froze, staring at this cat thing with wide eyes, claws digging into the dirt and her fur standing so high she looked like she's been struck by lightning.
She blinked...
Then she woke up. Somewhere else. Somewhere far away, unfamiliar. She stood in a clearing, confused and unharmed, but mostly frightened.
Suddenly, quick pawsteps could be heard behind her, and when she turned to face the sound, she was face to face with another cat.
This cat looked normal, this time. With long, wavy ginger fur, so red it looked stained with blood. Stained with blood.
The cat quickly introduced herself as Moonruby, Priestess of the Viper. She asked Rootkit about her parents, where she came from, but the kit was too shocked to give a clear answer.
Moonruby then scooped her up, and walked the path back to her colony.
The next few days were kind of a blur.
Moonruby was nice. She fed and cleaned Rootkit, brushed off her tears and sang to her at night. But she was also... odd. A self-proclaimed priestess, of a non-existent order, worshiping strange Gods while hiding it from her colony. Her colony prayed to the stars in the sky, Moonruby prayed to the stars that fell.
She rambled on and on about her Patron Goddess, Viperdance, the Goddess of love and war.
Rootkit listened to her curiously, but then her caregiver finally described this Deity's appearance. She felt her heart drop, the mouse she was eating now hanging loosely from her mouth.
DO YOU LIKE ANGELS? DO YOU LIKE GAY ANGELS?? DO YOU LIKE SAD GAY ANGELS???
✦ Then this book is for you!! ✦
HOLIEST is a book by @sancta-seraphina! It is the first in The Divine Tragedy series.
The full blurb is as follows:
"Deep in the heart of Hell, the Fallen Host is living with as much peace as their Father allows them to have, until one day when a treacherous cherub is cast down into their realm like the star Wormwood from Revelation. Yet all of the other portents from Revelation seem to be missing, with the exception of a mysterious manuscript that begins haunting the Devil's dreams and eventually his waking world as well."
Also, here's the cover reveal!
I have the honor of being part of the ARC readers and I must say it's absolutely worth it!! Please check it out and consider preordering or waiting to get you copy on august 13th! Sancta is such an amazing artist and writer and her work is so underrated that it hurts.

And as a treat, and since I'm late to posting the cover reveal (sorry!) here's Prince Lucifer, forcibly turned into a kitty cat:
I love him so much your honor, I'd die for him
I named him Mourning star 'cause I think it fits.. please somebody hide vitamins in his wet food before he explodes, I can't lose him
He's also vaguely based on a javanese cat... he's just a pretty cream point baby, save him from himself
Massive ALERT for other small artists seeking to do commissions right now.
@almostdeepcat is a scam account, looking to scam small vulnerable artists out of their money.
Super scummy thing to do to folks trying to make a living off of their art.
@almostdeepcat commented on my commission post and asked me to dm them. Wanted “5 drawings of their son Mickey’s dog. Was immediately suspicious but wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt.
Things immediately got weird with the payment. None of the things they described showed up on my PayPal. Then tried to remedy because I felt terrible I might have just lost this guy $250.
PLEASE always remember to do your due diligence and look into things if you’re unsure or get weird vibes. And especially DO NOT take “emails” for their word. If you’re confused or unsure make a call out to your bank or PayPal support.
That (we’re going to arrest you) email really did give me a spook but that was obviously by design. (And now looking back in retrospect there are spelling errors lol)
I’m already struggling to make ends meet and this LOSER almost scammed me out of $150.
Please spread this around- this account has specifically only interacted with very small artists who’ve made posts expressing how desperate they are for commissions and that shit just made me so sad.
I love u guys stay pls stay safe!
