The Crystal Empire is saved. The Crystal Heart is back in it's rightful place. Princess Cadence has been restored to the throne, and the Crystal Ponies have regained their peaceful lifestyle.

So how and why did former-king Sombra survive the blast that should have killed him?

Well I do enjoy a good villain shown in a good light. Sombra is a pretty enigmatic character, not much is personally known about him so seeing him being absolved of everything does make this story interesting. You've kept the characters in context with the show, I hate it when an author flips their personalities.

A few things I'd like to point out are:

Twilight felt like she hadn’t eaten in days and quickly filled herself with food until she simply felt lazy.

This is a bit confusing, maybe simply felt drowsy or stuffed to the brim. Just a thought. The flow is pretty good but sometimes it seems to speed up a lot when we reach Sombra's interrogation. All of his history was pretty much thrown in there at once. Feel like you could have expanded it a bit more. I would have expected him to be a bit more reluctant to ponies who put him in a cell and start drilling him for answers.

All in all, you deserve a fave. Can't wait for next update.

Sweet story. I love it. I can't wait for the next chapter. I wonder will this be a Sombralight shipping or will Sombra return to evil when he finds out how much has been hidden from him.

This is gonna end in a BAD way!!! Man. I hope Twilight can help Sombra. I also wonder how She can lasts until Pinkie wants to hold a party.

I hope thing end well for Sombra. O! and who out of the mane six do u think would be the best pairing for Sombra?

At this point, I don't think the "Romance" tag will be added at all. Even if I did, I'm not sure who would be the best match, though at this point, probably Twilight with how I've characterized Sombra.

5358678 I'm not saying add a romance tag, I just wanted to know who u thought the best mare out of the mane six would be best paired with Sombra.

picked up Cadence

Cadance. It's Cadance. Cadence is the word, Cadance is the copyrighted name.

launched the alicorn into the sky towards the Crystal Heart.

You know, I never understood why Rainbow never took the initiative to rocket after it.

Within seconds, pandemonium returned as King Sombra fired the dark crystals left and right

This is kinda showy, not telly. You're telling us that there was pandemonium. How? What's going on? Describe it. Also, just 'dark crystals'. It's not 'the dark crystals' unless there's something distinctive about them (They were already there, etc).

I hope you explain how Twilight got out.

But there was too much space.

What does that have to do with anything?

Good start. Could use a little polish, but good start.

Thank you very much. I think I fixed everything and tried to explain a little better. :twilightsmile:

Wow. Intense. I wonder then where the dark Magic is coming from Sombra. It has to be in there somewhere. Great chapter and thanks for the update.

It is very enjoyable so far. I like your characterization of Sombra and the cast feel in character. I like to see more.

“That’s why we’re taking her to Celestia, darling,”

I believe you meant to say ‘him’ :rainbowwild:

Twilight felt like she hadn’t eaten in days and quickly filled herself with food until she simply felt lazy. It felt good

I think your using the word ‘felt’ a little too much. :unsuresweetie:

This is very interesting so far! Kind of reminds me of one of my ideas, whether I will write that - well, it may be a while :twilightblush:
I'll be reading!
