Just wrote this story, thought you guys would enjoy. Feedback is highly advised!!! :trollestia:

Thanks to my good friend kirawolf590 on Deviantart, we have a very beautiful cover image for the story. :trollestia:

This is quite a story. If it was your intent to leave me staring at the screen for about ten minutes you
accomplished it. Your handling of Celestias double loss combined with the joy at having her sister back is stunning. The final letter is a master touch. I look forward to seeing more of your work

My new favorite story...I loved it!!!:twilightsmile: im looking forward to whatever you write in the future!

I don't know if you've read my blogpost, but TheRussianBrony fraternity (we) are working on completely filling in Zecora's backstory from the day she turns 16(18) to the stuff she now does in Ponyville. It is going to be epic, and VERY tragic in the end. :trollestia:

Shit.
I don't even know where to start...

You good sir have removed thine gauntlet and stricken my feels so heartily that they no longer know up from down! I was laughing when I felt I should've cried, and smiling when I felt I should've been mourning... I am normally opposed to the mere concept of additional alicorns beyond Luna and Celestia, however, you are one of a rare few that have used them in such a way that felt unobtrusive, and if I might dare, just felt right. It is authors such as yourself that make me blanch, in awe of your mere presence and loath the fact that I cannot devise such masterful pieces of art!

There are indeed many grammatical errors herein, such as missing spaces, improper punctuation, misspelled words, and erroneous word choices (that may or may not merely be misspellings). However, I am hesitant to say that they detracted from the story. They should still be seen to by a proof-reader/ editor, but with the clear amount of effort expended, they pale in comparison to the level of pure beauty that you have crafted here.

I was especially taken with your depiction of Celestia, whom is a difficult character to write and stick close to canon, while maintaining an interesting narrative. Not only did you stay true to, what I see as a canon Celestia, but you flushed out a character that was more 'human' - to use a poor phrase. Her gentle jaunt into insanity was both believable and well written enough that it was actually frightening when she started doting over her dead sister... As one whom has been in a similar situation (though not exactly the same) I can say with some degree of certainty that brought back some less than pleasant memories. So please take this as what it is, a compliment of your skills and a wish that you may get all your justly deserved views...

Just out of curiosity, whatever happened to those poor guards sent into the caverns under Canterlot? I hope someone fetched them out! :twilightsheepish:

Jack-pony, I am very happy you enjoyed my tale. I think it is plainly seen, that knowing the stages of mourning, and experiencing them, are two different things. We seem to have unmethodically met a common ground on that. Your response gratifies my work, as well as the other 3 people who helped make this story what it is. I really did laugh when you pointed out my gramatical/spelling errors, mostly because one of the people who aided me in this production was indeed an English teacher. As for me alone, I am... well Russian. So, the english language is only my second tongue. I also appreciate what you said about the third alicorn, as it took a few detailed charts depicting his 'diction' to make him the acceptable equine that he is. Once again, I am glad our paths have crossed, and I hope you enjoy unceasing bounty in literature. :trollestia:

...I really did laugh when you pointed out my gramatical/spelling errors, mostly because one of the people who aided me in this production was indeed an English teacher...

:rainbowhuh: Well, that's quite the surprise! Is he/ she a native speaker?
Regardless, since English is not your native tongue, I must applaud you on such a fine piece!
...and as I said, the errors are not surprising due to the length of this story, nor do they detract from it. They are, however, present.
Keep on writing, I eagerly await your next story! :raritywink:

Russian Brony, at least as far as I know, this was your third fanfic ever, and done almost all by yourself. This story was so awesome :rainbowkiss: and outdoes a large majority of other stories on this website. This fanfic deserves to be featured on the home page! I am so psyched for what we may all accomplish in a group effort in these coming months.

You two know each other?
:trollestia:

2772898 yes. Is he on vacation or ignoring me? I can't tell.

An easy way to check is to go on his profile page and check the last time he has logged on. If he is indeed ignoring you, best of luck. As we all know, friendship is magic.

This story has been reviewed by The Equestrian Critics Society

Story Title: Royal Tears

Author: TheRussianBrony

Reviewed by: Errant

What do you get when you add an interesting take on an old trope, an interesting OC alicorn, some grammatical problems and a little questionable characterization? You get “Royal Tears”, a little fic with a good idea and some heart that needs a bit of tweaking and polishing before it can shine.

Full Review

Score: 7/10

Thank you for reviewing my work. I have since improved my grammar and overuse of a thesaurus. I'm glad you didn't feel like Eremus was a stereotypical OC alicorn, and I'm glad that you seemed to like the plot. Your review covers absolutely everything in my fic. I am very grateful for your contribution.

You're very welcome! I'm glad you found it useful.

Excellent fic :D The only issue that really stood out to me was that some of the sentences were strangely phrased, but it didn't take anything away from the story in my opinion. Upvoted!

I am glad you liked it. It's my favorite out of all of the ones I've written.
