I like fantasy. I like heroes. And unsurprisingly, I idolize Master Tolkien.

A bit of some bad news · 3:29am Jan 20th, 2016

I'm afraid I have some bad news in regards to the story. About a few days ago, my 4 year old laptop up and died on me which pretty much destroyed the latest chapter. I was hoping to get it up by month's end but now I'm afraid it won't be out until Feb.

Villainy 101 · 8:26am Dec 10th, 2015

And so the identity of the Shadow has been revealed. I know it was pretty obvious from the start but at least I hope I made it dramatic enough.

I'm back baby! · 5:56am Dec 9th, 2015

Greetings to all my readers. It's certainly been a while hasn't it? My goal was to finish this story within a year but it seems as though life had other plans for me. Over the past few months, I've had to spend an unexpected hiatus on personal matters. You see, I suffer from depression but a new therapist and new medication has done wonders for me. It's also forced me to take a good hard look at myself, my life, the choices I've made, and where I'm going. I've come to realize that the

The Discord Effect · 6:07am Jun 11th, 2015

So let's talk about what I've done in this latest chapter. Mirror Discord being defeated by the Shadow following his possession of Mirror Sombra is what's known as a Worf Effect; when the biggest and strongest character is defeated by the villain as a means to show how much of a threat the villain is. Not only did the Shadow defeat MD, but also managed to seal his powers, and by extension those of Prime Discord as well (the exact nature as to how will be revealed in the next chapter though if

Regarding my absence · 3:36am Jun 6th, 2015

Hey everyone. I'm sorry that it's been so long since I last posted. The past four months have been one drama after another which unfortunately forced me to put the story on an unplanned hiatus. And even after all that, I realized that my original idea for the next chapter wasn't going to work with what I had written and where I plan the story to go so I had to scrap the entire thing and start over from scratch.

When having a Waifu goes too far. · 4:44am Dec 25th, 2014

Hello again everyone. I apologize for getting behind in my routine for posting any new chapters. A combination of writer's block and holiday stress have unfortunately drained me of my mental energy over the past two weeks. But now that Christmas will soon be over hopefully I'll be able to get the new chapter caught up and finished; if not by New Year's then at least within the first week of 2015.

Mr. Dustmop, OC's, and Sue/Stu characters · 6:30am Dec 17th, 2014

In the latest chapter of my fic, we met an OC by the name of Dustmop, an elderly unicorn janitor who was called out of retirement to get Star Swirl's library into shape for its new owner. To be honest, I was a little nervous about including an OC in this story, especially considering a lot of OC's for MLP fanworks are either author avatars, cheap clones of cannon characters, or the offspring of shipped characters that if one takes a moment to think about would never happen (IE-an OC that is

Celestia's behavior · 10:01pm Dec 8th, 2014

In this blog entry, I'd like to discuss how I've depicted Celestia in chapter 3 "Cold." Especially since I'm expecting numerous complaints about how out of character I made her act.

Yeah, that's the point.
