On a day as ordinary as any other, the Cutie Map assigns a new friendship mission to Twilight, who soon becomes concerned about the place it tells her to go.
She will need a lot of courage and willpower when she discovers that her now assigned mission is to reform one of her oldest and most terrifying enemies: King Sombra.
And as the task is carried out, the pieces of the puzzle of the past will begin to fit together and make sense, accompanied by new nascent feelings that no one could ever have believed possible.
[...]
When King Sombra accepts the princess' offer with malicious intentions, he will be surprised with different and unexpected obstacles that will not make things as easy as he thought they would be. Especially when the different attitudes and qualities of the princess in charge of him, instead of making him hate her, begin to create a peculiar feeling of curiosity within him.
However, when a sinister and seemingly powerful evil that is somehow linked to him is unleashed upon Equestria and the Crystal Empire, giving himself the opportunity to explore his feelings will not be an easy task.

It's usually "Marefriend" in most stories for obvious reasons, just thought I should point that out.
You know you can add hr's, right?
Something like this:
It's the small dash to separate sections in a chapter. "{hr]"
Isn't the map the result of the elements of harmony? I don't think it would be a wise decision to simply just ignore it.

I had forgotten about that, thanks.

It's the first time I publish something on fimfiction, I didn't know I could do that.

Honestly for a first story it's actually pretty good, I seen a lot of first stories on this site and this is one of the best I have seen so far, atleast top 10.
Here's a suggestion, 1 magic inhibitor, 30 guards around the the castle of friendship (assuming that's where she will be reforming him), and 1 Discord.
He could never face Discord without being destroyed in under 5 seconds, if Sombra were to attack Equestria that would mean he would be attacking Fluttershy and if he attacked Fluttershy then Discord would be pissed.
Just because Sombra is evil doesn't mean he's powerful, Shining Armor seems to be having a hard time putting that through his thick skull. If there's anything that I hate more, it is Shining Armor being an idiot sometimes.
She has been listening to you! Your the one who keeps interrupting her! Damn it! I hate Shining Armor more than Blueblood at this point, and that alone is saying something, I can handle a bratt but I can not handle stupidity. AGHH!
Well this is interesting....
....I would hate to have friends and family who interrupted me everytime I tried to speak reason. Seriously, who does that?
SHES TRYING TO! AGHHHHH!!!
Maybe that's why they assigned a Allicorn to the job, the princess of friendship no less.
Can't wait for the next chapter, my theory will be that Sombra will try to keep up with his plans but he eventually develops feelings for Twilight and wants to be reformed.
Well either that or Sombra still goes with his plans and makes Twilight his Queen.
I'm actually surprised this story isn't that popular, probably the fact the likes/dislikes has been disabled, doesn't explain why there isn't any other comments besides mine and the author's.
Also the story cover for a first story is very interesting, second or third time i seen a custom made cover for someone making there first story
Well atleast there starting somewhere.
Shining Armor just gets more overprotective doesn't he? Chapter 1-3 has shown how much a bad brother he is with how much he likes to interrupt her sister.
I'm also starting to notice that Shining Armor is more rude than Sombra! Didn't see that coming.
At this point I'm just waiting for Sombra to be just as kind as Fluttershy and than Twilight rubs it in his face, or Sombra rubs it in his face. Seriously, Shining Armor annoys me.
I believe that is where Sombras bad memories are.
11872745
My theory is that Sombras gonna have a relapse and almost get locked up again.
Still wondering who the other ponies locked up in the crystal dungeon were. Can't tell if this fic world is on the darker side or not.
Look forward to the story continuing, writer :).
Sombra has his magic back? How? I'm hoping it's explained in the next chapter.
Unless is something else.
11891722
Yes, he did.
11891769
I thought he had an inhibitor ring on his horn? Shouldn't be possible for him to break it off in his sleep, unless someone took it off.
11891770
He still has the ring on; remember that the ring does not completely suppress his magic, it only does when it's dark magic, it's what Celestia says in chapter 3. A levitation spell is not dark magic.
11891870
Oooh.
Wait, light magic could still be used for bad just as much as dark magic, he could still escape if he easily wanted to, unless all he did was study dark magic and not normal magic.
11891873
Well, you got it. Sombra is undeniable powerful and experienced with magic (at least in this fic), but only when it comes to dark magic. He's probably just a bit more skilled with white/light magic than an average unicorn.
11891878
Yes that makes sense, so I'm gonna guess about half as powerful as Twilight in normal magic when she was only a unicorn and slightly more powerful than Rarity.
11891886
Exactly.
Sombra?
Right... And lots of kidnappings and murders happened after Discord was reformed, probably not but still.
However they have no proof it was dark magic or if dark magic was caused by Sombra. As far as I'm aware he is innocent till proven guilty, NOT based off of assumptions, Shining Armor should know this more than anyone considered he was a guard, not just a royal guard but a Captain.
I blame Shining Armor. He was a d**k. Thankfully this story is rated T so I get to say that, yay me.
Oh it was... It most certainly was...
Hold on, did this death happen before or after he was freed? Because if it was before than none of it is Twilight's fault even if Sombra was the cause.
Plus when Twilight found him, wasn't he so weak to the point he passed out? And why would he just randomly murder someone? He should know that would draw suspicion and then everyone around the Empire would be looking for a possible suspect increasing the chances of him being found and him being a known suspect.
Ok, 2 of my least favorite ponies in this entire story.
I know that is 3 but Celestia ain't doing anything.
I would also like to say that when Starlight Glimmer made all those timelines, how many lives do you think she killed and ruined? And she gets redemption? It might not have taken place within there world but she still killed countless ponies if you really think about it.
Also Twilight does make a valid point, if Sombra isn't a suspect than that would mean that there's a new threat.
11917732
yep, the death was after Sombra was freed
11917770
But wasn't he being watched and was still in the dungeons? Sombra has been with Twilight the entire time at Equestria and he also has the ring on.
If the death happened at the Crystal Empire than that's Cadance's and Shining Armor's fault, don't know why Twilight is blaming herself. Or why it seems the other Princesses are blaming Twilight.
11917772
That's exactly why Twilight feels so much frustration when she gets home and it's finally on her bed, she mentions that she tried to change their minds with every argument she could think of and they still found a way of countering what she said in defense of Sombra
11917780
Oh.
