For eons the land of Antrotica has been surrounded by an undying storm. Howling winds, piercing hail, blinding snow and the monsters that roam beneath the cloud coverage all make the land complete uninhabited by ponykind. Yet pony curiosity will not let these things deter the pursuit of knowledge, and Doctor Absolut Zero embarks on a royal expedition to the final continent in hopes of learning the storms origins and how to at last tame it.
Six months pass, and all contact is lost.
Worried over what might have befallen the team, Princess Luna tasks a trio of ponies to travel to Antrotica in order to find and rescue the team. Spearmint, Stark Winter and Whisper are the ponies assigned to the task, and although they manage to find the team safe and alive, things are far from over for them. For during their research, the team found something startling. Something that could alter history, tip the balance of the world, and endanger everyone alive.
Because within the heart of Antrotica, a powerful being slumbers fitfully upon a frozen throne.
This story took about a year to complete, and was originally commissioned by my good buddy Silverflame aka Spearmint. Spearmint is copyright him, while other OC ponies used in this story are all made by myself.
This story...grew...a lot...from what was originally meant to be a cute fetish piece admittedly, into some full-blown to tie into my friends stories and OC lives. It's also why I was unable to really work on The Black Digi-Knight, as I was busy trying to tackle this monster the entire time. For fans of that story, sorry! I hope you all enjoy this!
