good update
Really like the building tension about bad Griffon-Equestria relationship and the guards preparing for a fight. I also found PP's inward monologue about her self-esteem along with her genuine crush in Dusk and Fluttershy to be really interesting. Fluttershy also shows a great deal of empathy and understanding as she managed to comfort Pinkie's self-doubts even though Fluttershy is usually the one in need of comforting via Rarity. Thanks for the great chapter.
I was aboard the Mac and Zecora ship from the beginning, but after reading the blog post about Earth Pony magic and the Druidic faith, as well as Mac's side story you wrote and then this chapter, I can really see the angle I think you're going for, and I really, really like it.
What's really impressive though, is how you've built up the mythos from the show and incorporated so many little details including alluding to future episodes that have only (relatively) recently came out. But enough gushing from me. This series always brightens my day when I see a new update, thank you for writing it!
Its bad enough doing your best to break up a schooyard fight, but when the children are hopped up on drugs, weilding heavy weapons and are determined to have it all their own personal way, things get messy indeed.
Really hope Pinkie comes to terms soon. Four different episodes all about to fire off at the same time, even more so?
Really liked the foreshadowing set up and how Pinkie's condition was flushed out.
7149625 Thanks! I will try to keep them going!

This is going to be an ongoing arc for a long time, trust me.
This has been long coming! I felt really worried about it, but I'm glad it turned out to be so well received!
It's all about what they have doubts over haha. That and Fluttershy's growing comfort levels. And thanks for reading!

Well thank you. I have an odd delight in this little side ship!
Yeah, a herbalist/acimist and a Druid do mix well together. I wonder what else they can do together? Hmmm....
Haha! the Gushing let's me know I'm doing something right, thanks! And trust me, I put way too much time into trying to foreshadow stuff. I'm already working on sneaking in subtle hints for season 2/3 in places >.>;;;;

Yeah, and they are a foot taller then you on average, too. Good thing they have no reason to team up together, and spend almost as much time fighting one another as they fight you.
A lot of episodes are going to be happening very close together in the next few days, hopefully everyone will survive the overlapping insanity. And don't worry about Pinkie. She's good at holding stuff together, even if it is will Wonder-glue and sprinkles.

Thanks! And thanks for helping me set it up and make it flow properly!

I know. I was really trying to fit in all 5 versions of suprise, but I think the editors might have skinned me alive if I did.
Thanks. I've been trying to find a good place to bring it up again, and this felt kinda natural!

Hey there! First of all, I apologize, this was one of the last chapters I wrote before getting serious editorial support, and it's one of the chapters that never got a good rewrite post acquiring editors. I've gone through the chapter and made 79 revisions to the extremely excessive use of 'would' dropping its use from 94 uses to 15, all or almost all in spoken dialogue only.
I will try to get together some of my editors to run through the other legacy chapters in the next few days to make sure there are no more insane issues like this in future chapters, and I assure you, with the addition of my 5 member editorial staff, this kind of stuff DOESN'T happen anymore. Hopefully you will give the story another chance, and I totally understand why it might have put you off. Thanks for your time and the read, and please let me know if you have any future comments or suggestions!

It's worth it to stick it out. It was a bit jarring for me as well, but there is a massive change once the editors start kicking their efforts in.
Can you clarify something for me please? Are the characters in the story human or anthro? It says human on the cover but the story has words like mane and snout which humans don't have.
7175481 They are humanized rather then full human, but that tag doesn't exist so the middle-ground answer is the best choice I have right now. That means hands and feet but with wings and tails, as well as differences in some terminology like hair being called a mane and the like. Due to mistakes I made early on while first writing the story some things like snout and hooves might have slipped into the story that was an error and I'll try to correct it, so I do apologize for the confusion.
Also note that characters like Winona, for example is a canine, but humanized, so she would have some slightly different language used as well, for example, in this chapter Zecora puts a hand on Winona's snout to let her get a good sniff of her scent to calm the pup down. I have profiles for the characters set up to help better introduce them and side details about them, but Winona will have a staring role in the upcoming chapter about the Diamond Dogs.
7199727 First, thank you for reading! The characters are humanized, thus while physically they appear human, save minor exceptions like Horns, tails and wings, socologiclly they are akin to ponies, thus herding, terminology (aka stallion and mare instead of man and woman, foal, filly and colt for child, girl and boy.) And other things of that nature become a big part of the flavor of how they talk act and think.
I realize that it creates a minor confusion / annoyance, and I do apologize for that, but I hope the effects are balanced by the added distinction and flavor generated, making my story have a more unique appeal.
Again, I want to thank you for reading it at all I am really excited to hear what you think when/if you continue. Feedback from people is my lifeblood, and it's a joy to be able to talk things over anytime!
