After Tirek had been defeated by Twilight Sparkle and her friends, he was stripped of all the magic that he had stolen from everypony and sent back to Tartarus to be imprisoned.
Days turned to weeks. Weeks turned to months. Months turned to years. Years turned to centuries.
However, even after all that time, Tirek is still alive. He lies defeated and broken, yet he still refuses to give in.
His hatred for her will not allow himself to surrender to his fate and let that purple alicorn win. So he continues on, driven, his anger his only anchor against the darkness and solitude of his imprisonment.
It seems like Tirek is locked in more than one cage.
Chapters (1)
Truly a monster, through and through. Well done.
Lord Tirek demands a sequel!
I'm sorry, but all I could think of when I saw the title was

I actually already did. I really hope they accept it. When I was writing the story, it originally had swearing and gore, because in the first draft it was a Fallout Equestria side story. I later decided against this since it would detract from Tirek's sworn revenge against Twilight since she wouldn't be alive anymore. I then removed any references to Fallout Equestria, but I kept the guns as a way to explain how three ponies got past Cerberus and how it wouldn't be an issue in his escape. I then removed the swearing and gore so I could avoid a mature rating, because Equestria Daily doesn't allow mature stories. I learned that when I tried to submit my Super Rainbow Dash story. I also submitted A Day in the Life of a Background Pony, but it was rejected for multiple reasons. I reread recently, and I saw that it was really beneath the quality of featured stories. However, I like to believe that I have improved since then, so I'm hoping that this will make it.
Aw, I was hoping to see his face when he learned that Twilight was dead and that ponies were perfectly willing to kill him.
Excellent piece! I love this idea of Triek reemerging to take his revenge. And the idea of the Fallout Equestria as siting is simply perfect. With Tirek out there they are really going to have a hard time. I am not sure if I would like to read a continuation, since this story works pretty well on its own, but it is up to you.
I like it. Chances of a sequel?
Hey dude, I read your story (Better days and hopefully Caged today) on my youtube account, Nottooteckybrony if you remember me.
