Trapped in the endless halls of Tartarus, forced to listen to the endless screams of rage and regret; an artist grins.
Royalty had put him here, and royalty would let him out.
A deal here, a concession there, and openings would appear.
A crack could break a marble statue, a drop of poison could ruin a meal, the smallest of errors could bring down anything.

ok u ruined the line for me thanks
Where are Celestia, Luna, Nightmare Moon, and Tirek?

They get introduced in chapters after this one. I was planning on updating today but stuff got in the way. I got the thing written but I need to go over the chapter again. So expect the next chapter some time tomorrow. As I stated in my authors note, this chapter was more to show the audience where I intend to go with this story.
Fatal Error is my favorite UTAU character. It'll certainly be interesting to see him be adapted in this universe!
I guess we’re going fission for a Celestias now
Hey this is actually really interesting I hope to see more and hope you don't drop it like other people do
11299595
well, I have around 6 chapter prewritten, so at minimum you got that.
I like the way it goes. and I'm looking forward to the next Monday.
: )
flies
smog, unless Luna summoned that dragon from Lord of the Rings, which would be cool to see.

well damn, I thought that autocorrect was just fucking with me on the "smaug" part
:)
Okay this is pretty damn fantastic. The cadence and flow of the narration and choices of words were an absolute delight.
I'm looking forward to more!
very good short but with how the story is told it probably dose not matter
This...is awesome. I love every bit of it. Keep ‘er goin’ mate
Do you ever plan on returning to this story?
11546084
i'm wrapping the final chap of my main story, then I plan to come back and ifx this fic up.
11546103
Thank you
11546103
Also, if your main story is chaotic, vestige, I quite like that one. I hope it’s not too stressful and you have a good day:D
11546106
oh, thanks. But no worries, the last chapter is mostly drafted, just gotta add a couple things before I get another round of editing and the posting
Good story. Worth noting you haven't removed the Hiatus status yet, though I imagine that will happen when the next chapter comes. I probably should have read this sooner.
11551141
yep, gonna be revamping this thing
11551149
Revamp how? Does that just mean you’re going to rewrite some of it? Or just continue onwards?
11551202
rewrite, the writing in this thing is good imo, but the plot feels pretty much directionless
11551206
No? Fatal Error wants to escape, Celestia wants them to get information out of Terek who presumably wants to not be tortured and eventually escape, Nightmare Moon wants to corrupt Luna and requests aid from Fatal. All that is left is for complications to start happening.
Ah so pre-NM
11551206
Directionless? The frick you mean directionless?
Youve got maybe three separate plotlines like that Nez guy pointed out. This story is already going good, no need to fix what aint broken.
Thanks for the chapter!
How naughty of Luna to renege on the deal.

Ye, I took another look at the story and decided to keep moving forward with what I had originally instead of changing the plot. The most I’ll do is go back to shore up grammar, poor word choice, and other stuff like that.
I wonder if there be other skeletons than just fetal error rustling equstria up?
oh, this is getting good Luna/nightmare playing with fire Fatel got an axe to grind!
This is pretty nice. Is this a crossover with Undertale? Either way this is pretty well done.
11679360
The MC is based off of one of the many AU's
This is certainly interesting. I'm not really sure what to expect. Looking forward to seeing whatever you do with this.
I hope Fatal gets to knit maybe make monster food and destroy some MLP AU doomed timelines while under the ownership of Nightmare, I wonder if this will touch on the MLP comics then just possibly undertale stuff?
Nice to see this updated. I saw my comment mentioned last chapter and I'm glad you found somewhere to go with this. For some reason i didn't expect Celestia to be able to break their deal. I kind of expected it to all be over once Fatal was free. No complaints though. This is great. Let's see where Nightmare of Moon takes us.
You have your moment Fatal hope might be foolish and cruel but man was an injustice done to you it is tragic!
I want to cry and fear him in equal amounts!
I like all the thought processes and interactions I see here with Fatal. I am wondering what the time-line is. Is it before Nightmare banishment, just before the night of the show, somehow on a different script? Also can't wait until Twilight meets Fatal perhaps when she is alone failing with the elements, or such as when the want-it-need it spell happens.
This story has my interest.
What is this a crossover of?
11684939
One of Undertales seemingly infinite Alternate Universes.
11684925
sadly, this is before the time of the show, this is Nightmare Moon's first go around. sorry if I hadn't adequately telegraphed that.
11684939
Undertale. The Mc is based off of Fatal Error AU

... I had just managed to put 2 and 2 together to get "Error Sans", and when I was going to post about it down here I spotted these comments.
Sometimes the comment section is useful, and I keep forgetting that.
I figured out the crossover from the source link on the cover image. Not familiar with Undertale fanon so I'm liking how this story is going regardless.
Nightmare of Moon is now put in an interesting position.
#1 She can kill Fatal here and now to be seen as even more of a hero then she probably does right now.
#2 She can "Banish" him to a lesser benefit to the former while still getting to keep a "loyal" follower.
#3 Maybe she decided to care and deescalates the situation.
the first two are more likely, but the third leads down a weird path where friendship is possible. It also leads to a more devastating betrayal on Nightmare of Moon's end of things.
fake it till you make it!
And so forth the creature acquired its name.
