Firefly chaper coming... · 12:49am May 30th, 2016
Within the next few days, most likely, and we will follow up with a second one soon. As we're at a proper point for it, these will be interlude chapters, telling the backstory of two future Bolt Knights, one directly and one indirectly. Who, you may ask...?
As has been said before, there are parts to this story that Captain Firefly cannot tell alone. She has therefore entrusted her quill to me for this chapter and the one following, that I might show how I came to be the mare I am, much as Blindside did earlier. This is my tale; the trials and tribulations I endured to get to where I am today. Be warned ‘tis not a happy story for the most part, but one I wouldst not trade for anything. It ultimately made me a better warrior and mare, one who wouldst serve my Captain and Princess well in many campaigns to come… not all of which wouldst take place on a battlefield.
Though this and the following chapter is mine, ‘tis the story of not just one, but two future Bolt Knights I will tell. The other is a mentor to me and many others, a pony I regret wouldst not live to write his own chapter in this tome. He, like so many others, wouldst fall in battle with the gryphons. A hero whose memory I now honor by living as he once told me he wished to…
By making my ultimate legacy one of life, not death.

Expect plenty of worldbuilding and some surprising revelations about both this other pony and thestral society in general. For those of you waiting for the next TLaTU chapters, I will go back to that after these two chapters are done. With apologies, those trial chapters are difficult and taking a lot out of me...
I am quite pleased by this.
