I waffled a bit regarding if I was gonna use the kanji that means "related to the earth" or the one that specifically means "ground" but I chose the latter.
Fair warning, since I got the draft for all five chapters, Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, Void (no, not
I'm going for the japanese elements, not the ones from Captain Planet...) I know where the story will go. It is a coming-of-age story, and as such it will involve, well... coming of age, growing up.
I'm not gonna go all darkfic on you, (probably) but if you liked the Calvin and Hobbes-esque feel of this chapter but isn't interested in that ,you might wanna quit after the first two chapters and skip the ones about her abdolescence and marehood. Just sayin', it's totally chill, read it however you like.
Hmm... interesting... might read later. You have my attention..
This was interesting. It's still not very clear what the story is going to be about (unless it's just about Rose's life). But so far, great stuff.
Minor grammar mistakes, noticeable but not grating. Believable characterizations. I think I will stick around for the next chapter and see whats up.
Five Rings... I'm actually writing a crossover with Legend of the Five Rings. I'll read this after college, let's see what you have.
I liked how you used the "ponies can change names once they get their cutie mark". Subtle.
Again, Owlor, I love these slice of life stories of yours.

I'mma try to clean up the errors later.
All editors and proofreaders I know are busy working on "Sky Matron", and I'm not the best self-editor in the universe.

Just be aware that it has nothing to do with that world whatsoever. The title is an allusion to the book of five rings by Miyamoto Musashi. The thought process that led to this title is pretty long and dull, but basically it refers to the five elements each chapter is named after. I'm sad to report that this story has very little of Rose being a badass samurai.

It was a welcome oppertunity to not have to worry about how contrived it sounded that someone named Rose just happened to become interested in growing roses. I like that detail because its something that makes sense in their universe. Cutie marks is a pretty interesting wordbuilding idea that I unfortunently never get to use much since its more suitable to a visual medium. NEVER in my years of writing sci fi or fantasy would the thought "What if there was a species that get a symbol of their primary talents spotaneously tattoed on their ass? How would their society look like?" entered into my mind.
Fuck you Lily...
Fucking... children shenanigans... GAH!

Quote from a letter from Roseluck to Lily that will appear in the penultimate chapter (neary a decade after this incident, actually):
"P.S. I haven’t forgotten about the “blue roses”, and I assure you that my vengeance will come one day, and it will be be swift and merciless. You know the old griffon proverb, revenge is dish best served cold..."
