Somepony wants me dead, enough to try and kill me. They failed. Now if only I can figure out why there was an attempt on my life and why I can't remember who I am. That is, if I don't just find the closest bar and get drunk instead...
To answer with a far too long response, more questions will be answered on it in Chapter 7, which will go into some depth on the subject, nice long heart to heart between MWNN and Doc Mistletoe. But, in part, they figured she would flip out and go charging into the wastes to find them... which is exactly what she tried to do at the end of this chapter. And only four ponies were aware of it, not the whole town as she drunkenly believed. Now, if you go back and read one of the earlier chapters you'll get hit by when she talks about how absurd she thinks it would be for her to be a mother. One of those 'sad in retrospect' issues. Motherhood will form a large part of the story arc through all 12 volumes.
She has blackouts from the heavy drinking, but she'll remember more of that night as time goes by. I'm going to include the actual sex as the story continues but I want to ease readers into it, especially since it's not something that I've written very much of before. That and I really wanted to frustrate the main character because the mare's really wanted to get laid and now that she has, she can't remember any of it.
She and I share certain thought patterns but I'm trying to make sure that she isn't me.
I'm definitely going to keep things as sane/realistic as possible (6 chapters in and she's only level 2, I believe, and almost two weeks have gone by in story since the opening), because one of my biggest issues with FOE stories is the concept of the one month bad ass, where the protagonist goes from nobody to nightmare in a very short period of time. Also, I don't want her to take on an army singlehandedly and win, it would just be silly. She might take on three raiders and survive... barely, and the world of this story will not have endless mills of cannon fodder enemies for her to run through, every fight is a boss fight in that aspect.
I'm swamped with stuff right now, blizzard, research papers, final exams, rescued a kitten, but as soon as classes end for the term I'm going to try and finish out this volume (Chapters 7 & 8) and put out the first chapter to the next volume. Twelve volumes and 155 chapters planned as of right now, and the ending is firmly in place (I hate it when a story doesn't know where it's going or how it will end), and has been since the initial story conception.
I love reader input, so never be afraid to offer suggestions and ideas. Happy holidays.
So she has foals and no one even told her? I don't understand why they wouldn't tell her about that, good chapter again

Why didn't I have this already favorited? I must correct this immediately! There done. How could this have happened?

I think it was due to the admins rearranging the FOE stories.
