This story is a sequel to Brushed Away 2.5: Hearth's Warming Morning

After months of planning, organization, and the occasional disagreement, Troius Clawston and Canvas can finally see the anticipated day of their union in sight. And with Troy's family returning to Equestria early to help with the festivities, nothing can go wrong... right?

However, considering how much there still is to do, and what kind of family Troy has, sometimes things can get a little complicated. And even with most of Ponyville in assistance for the couple's big day, things are more than likely to spin out of control on the way to the wedding aisle. Especially when a group of Gryphons is planning one of the bachelor parties.

This story is a sequel to Brushed Away

Despite being one of the few Gryphons living in the land of Equestria, Troius Clawston couldn't be happier with how his life has been. Along with having good friends and a stable job in Weather Patrol, Troy is happiest about his life for one reason: Canvas, the Earth Pony artist that he saved and befriended, who grew to become so much more.
However, before the two can begin their lives together, Troy has to overcome a new challenge in his life. Something he never thought he would have to face until now...

Telling his family.

Because of strong Gryphon values which look down on alternative relationships, how will Troy's family react when they discover he's not only with someone of a different species, but of the same gender? As traditions clash with taboos, how will the Gryphon handle telling his brothers and parents, while still staying with the stallion he cares about? Can he keep everyone together, or will family bonds break under pressure?

The road of life is long, and winding. It's hard to follow, but you can stay on it the whole way through. Sometimes you don't want to, though. Sometimes you shouldn't. Sometimes you need to make the wrong decision. Sometimes you need to run off the path, and get lost in the woods so you can find yourself.

Pinkamina may have been a guilt-free killer for some time, but the funny thing about death is that it's permanent. Those you kill will never be around again, will never see the light of day once more, will never share another smile with you. Now, thanks to her, Rainbow Dash, along with many others, are among those numbers. As this reality begins to settle in, she regrets her actions more and more. We are here, not to see her suffer against her own thoughts, but to see the moment in which she was finally freed of her torment, the moment she finds the answer to her sorrows.
