Sunset of Sora
From Radiant Heart MUSH
There was once a student of a powerful alicorn who tried desperately to be worthy of her mentor's love, praise and adoration... As she felt her failures grow, the darkness in her heart only grew. While the light tried to shield her, eventually her pain was too much... and she began to share it. This is the story of her fall.

However, as lost as she is in the darkness, all of the friends (and rivals) she'd made over the last year refuse to let her end on that path. In a brutal, magical fight, they peel back every layer of her anguish, anger and despair, making sure that she can hear them. Showing her that, no matter what happens, she's not alone. She's seen.
