These are my responses to the 2020 prompts for the Equestria Daily annual Artist Training Grounds! There's supposed to be a "Newbie" to the front but I removed it just because. :P Prompt 13 is Pony with a dark side, which I interpreted as Pony with a dark past. Sunset of course is the pony in question, and she deals with her understanding of her present existence, as an extended process of atonement. I also present here my headcanon that the Pony Mane Six/Seven/Eight are (at least mentally) more mature than the Humane Seven, which by extension would make Sunset even a bit more older than her human friends. In this Meto-fied universe, Sunset already has the Equestrian equivalent of the bachelor's degree.
