Fascinating. I would be interested in seeing this thought drawn out into a full story.

I shall, one day. At worst I'll try to find a writer who can take the general idea and flesh it out. I already have all the details sorted out, it's just the doing that's the hard part.

In FoE no, but the rules were to make a non-spoilery picture, so I came up with an explanation of why the Changelings never appeared in the war on the Zebras side.
In the original story the timeline ended before the royal wedding, and specifically says only the two sisters are princesses.
With this explanation there's a reason nopony has ever seen or heard of the Changelings, plus the reason why they all didn't simply starve to death in the wasteland. If you've played Fallout then you remember Tranquility Lane and Dr. Braun, and that he was disguised. In this the character Chrysalis isn't who she seems to be, and 200 years in a simulation has driven her mad a little. Originally she chose this form to keep the Changelings in check, but now she barely remembers who she was.

Well, crud. I ought to fix that to say Stable then.
Plus the actual vault was 112, but someone took that one already as far as I know.

Well, the idea was that if you killed everyone your dad was there to see the whole thing. On the other hand, allowing everyone to live required killing them in the simulation, and they would do that repeatedly forever presumably.
In this situation I guess killing ponies would be the final task, none of them are real, however it could be part of another process to convert her into a queen.

I could look at them all day. Her mouth is a bit funky though, and the legs are too short, and the tail is off, and...
as a sketch none of those problems matter, but it's good to know the eyes are good!
