Discombobulated Soul


As a writer, my expansive vocabulary and thorough knowledge of grammar are my only saving graces. Please help, the world is too vorticose and gyratory!

T

I'm Twilight, and I was chosen for something, but I just don't know what.

All I know is that I've lived here for quite some time; enough that my memories of what came before are getting foggy.

I also know that I need to leave.

I need to go before they get me.

Before the princess finds me.

And, most urgently of all, before I find myself.

Noticed all the strange words and they spell out “THE CASTLE, HELP ME”

This is weird.

But in a way that i want to read more. Into the tracking list, then.

How confusing will this story be? I won't read it if it's too confusing.

One wonders if this is weird horror logic at work, or just some spectacular psychotic break.

Only one way to find out...

Psychosis seems more and more likely.

I plan to make this about as confusing as I possibly can. If you dislike puzzling out information, I'd advise you skip this one.

Secret Word: “THEY’RE REAL”

Are we gonna learn why Twi is there, chosen and WTF is Celestia doing?

Ah, alright, so it's not eldritch Equestria, she's just cursed nine different ways to Sunday. I wonder if it was Discord or Sombra...

I think I kinda got it? “THIS I KNOW WILL NEVER EVER ever be real AGAIN”

This story is so good, can't wait to see how it continues.

'ere we go! Time to see just what the shape of the world is.

This is Celestia? Oh, things got suddenly more interesting!

Well that went swimmingly. Great success.

Well she's stabbed something, now all that's left is flight.

Message at the end:
mynameissunset.killhernow.
My name is Sunset. Kill her now.

Damn bro! Celestia been the hero this whole time??

Is Celly bad or not? I'm confused.

The befuddlement is warranted and intentional, I can assure you. I left the ending very ambiguous and up to interpretation.

No one perspective gives all the answers and no clear 'winner' emerges. I did state in an earlier comment that I planned on making this as confusing as possible, so it would seem I have succeeded in that somewhat.

All I shall say is: The answers are there, if deeply hidden behind layers of implication and numerous distractions. If you care enough to read through it a few more times, you may just get them.

Theory time:
My first thought is that this entire story is the Canterlot wedding arc gone horribly wrong mixed with darker elements of Equestria Girls, but I'm a bit confused about the orphanage and Twilight's age. For it to make sense then the wedding would have to occur earlier in the timeline; when Cadance is younger than she is in the show since Twilight is still a filly in this story (unless she's somehow de aged??). The castle staff don't seem to recognise Twilight prior to her living in The Castle™ either.

Also since Twilight was infected by Chrysalis' magic, why was she put in an orphanage instead of a hospital, a psych ward, or magic quarantine? She even cuts herself just to cope! Celestia's decision making skills really went down the drain huh. I wonder where Luna is in all this...
