This is a story about a sheep. A little sheep, locked deep in prison, put there by ponies. He doesn't want to be there, but then he's had to do a lot of things he doesn't want to. It's a shame he deserves to be in there.

Possess. While the thought of a monster posing as various organs is weird and creepy, I don't think that's what you were going for.
And dear lord, why can't Lily just get killed already? I realize she's prolly got a whole arc that's either gonna end with her dying stupidly in a way that screws them all over, or finally learn that she isn't the hero and doesn't have plot armour, but I hate her so much. I want her to trip into a cheesegrater.
That monster is pure Nightmare fuel. NMM is for pansies.
Exceptional. The almost entirely one-sided fight was very well written. And the kindersnatches are definitely what you've called them; to clarify, I'm almost entirely certain that we've just seen what happened to the villagers (If I'm wrong, this is null and void, but the name is rather on the nose. Not a criticism. I'm stating the obvious really).
But I am not even more ill-at-ease. Yes, we've seen what is out there, and yes: it is very dangerous. But also, you said so yourself. A naturally occurring event such as this is almost entirely impossible.
Perhaps that is the wrong way of putting it. What I mean to say is that there's an unseen hand to all this. A "man behind the curtain", so to speak. So that beggars the question: Who, or what, engineered this, and why?
Truly exemplary. Sorry for my rambling review, just felt the need to talk. As always, I wish you well and look forward to the next installation.
I also feel no shame whatsoever in saying that this is likely my favourite story on the site.
Good Luck!
I gonna asume that the kindersnatches are the lost villagers.
Falling Leaf is called 'Fallen Lead' at one point. And kindersnatch becomes kindercatches in Prey's narration.
Very good chapter. At least they found the missing villagers! I don't think they're going to be able to rescue them, however.
What does that Zebrican curse mean anyway?
Are they gonna beat this thing Mr. Incredible style?
Thanks for the chapter. I personally hope Lily survives a bit longer, she bring some much needed conflict into their group dynamic.
Have to agree that this is one of the very best on the site. The story is compelling, one cares about the characters, and your writing style is very immersive.
Absolutly criminal that it only has about 300 likes, stick a zero on the end of that and it would be about right.

Absolutely agreed. This is one of the best stories I have ever read!
Thank you for personifying everything i fear in the dark :))))))
10076322
100% agree. It's saddening to see stories like this or The Hooves of Fate, go unnoticed despite all the care and talent that goes into them.
The did poses eyes and lungs—> They did possess eyes and lungs
I do wander why it didn't leap this time. Maybe the golem can learn like some sort of AI and adapt to overcome obstacles, or maybe the creator upgraded it after noticing it's inability to respond to that sort of event. Either way, it can change and that's not good.
In addition I like the name "Kindersnatch", I think it gives a big hint as to what might be going on with the missing villagers as well as giving the story an old German fairy tale aesthetic which I feel is very fitting. Old German fairy tales are known for being exceptionally dark.

Minor spoiler hint: 'Reaper king', and 'Scarecrow.' I'll say no more. 😇
10076483
Thank you. I have gone and corrected that now thanks!
10076161
Thanks for pointing out that mistake, I have gone and fixed it now. 🍎
As for Lilly Blossom, well, I can't give any spoilers as to what exactly is going to happen to her, whichever of those outcomes it shall be. She does tend to get on your nerves, doesn't she? She's kinda' like:
"Are you sure I can't buck her in the face?"
"No."
"What if I break her nose just a little?"
10076194
Why does the "d" have to be next to the "f"? Fallen Lead
Thanks for pointing out those mistakes though. Was originally going to call them kindercatches, and not kindersnatches, (not that it makes much difference) but I guess I got confused sometimes when writing. 😋
10076171
The 'who', the 'why', the 'where' and the 'what' will slowly be answered as the ISND uncover more of this mess. Things are already spiralling out of control though.
To coin a phrase, "The stairs lead down in both directions." 😱
Glad you found it entertaining regardless though, hope it continues to be so for all readers in the future too.
Thanks. 🍎

Not exactly sure, (never actually decided 😋), I don't have the profanity Tag on this story, but sufficed to say, it means something very foul.
10076401
It just needs 4 more legs, and there we go! Pumpkin Halloween spider scarecrow Mark 2! 😈
10076557
Awww, if you ever decide can you tell me?
10076316
*Le Gasp* Who says she's actually going to die? She's gonna' be the; "Hero the ISND needs, not the Hero they deserve!"
"..."
".....Right?"
"..."
*cough* cough mphp mamph mahahahaHaHa! *Eherm* "Of course she is."
10076316
But she stubborn to a fult and unless she gets traumatized, she's probably going to end up getting them killed sooner or later.
I vote death.
Or trauma.
Either one at this point.
10076649
Yes she is insufferable and hopelessly naive, but that's what I like about her character. She brings interesting scenarios and dialogues we just won't get with Paint Spot.
10076194
What do you mean by they found the missing villagers?
A New chapter, exactly what I needed to start a good week.
Thanks for the nice chapter, it is great, consistent and still easy to read.
10076743
The Kindersnatches.
Prey sensed some thoughts comming from them. I'm willing to bet the villagers were turned into them in some sort of dark ritual or something.
10076220
In the words of an old song
"Slander, libel, words you'll never find in the Bible"
No, not even the King James version
10076194
Technically, they haven't found them YET.
They just suspect
Wonderful. Reminds me of the old children’s book, “The Thorn Ogres of Hagwood”. That featured a terrible spider beast too.
10076689
Meh. I understand your need for a dynamic opposition to the regular, but I hold a hatred for zealots. Also, that dynamic is, dangerous, dangerous to the point of utter suicide, and indoctrination? She's gone.
So while I do respect your, desire, to an extent, all the same, in this case? I despise it.
10076795
Ah, i see what you mean now. Thanks
10076743
It is a guess, but I believe the Kindersnatches are the missing villagers. Or if not the missing villagers, the souls of the missing villagers bound through necromancy to the wicker frames.
10076322
Wow, thank you. That is high praise indeed. I hope the story continues to impress you and anyone else who reads it too.
I don't really know what to say as I feel that anything I would be able to write would be woefully discrediting to this absolute masterpiece of a story. It is with great honor that I award this story a reserved slot on my bookshelf bidding it's completion. Keep up the amazing work!
This story is one of the few things that actually keeps me coming back to this site. The characters are compelling, the storyline is immersive, and it's really easy to just get lost while reading it. It's really a shame that so few people have had the pleasure of getting to read it.
10083155
Yikes. No pressure to keep up the good work and finish on a reasonable time or nothing, am I right?
Really though, I am glad to hear when people enjoy the story, thanks.
10083585
Oddly enough this is one the main stories I hope is updated when I check for them.
Oh it's just a normal scarecrow *remembers the comment on the metal and spider legs.*
Ahokay. Not a normal scarecrow. FuckthisshitI'mout
Pumpkin Spiders now... As Prey would say, Zoma'Grika.
This is definitely a massive problem.

Not a fan of spiders. Giant scarecrow spiders? Even less so... 🎃🕷🕸

Putting the fear of god into everyone except for the person who is both first to die and most likely to get everyone else killed. She should be on the first train home

You wouldn't happened to have seen a web series called No Evil by chance have you?
10640624
Ah, no sorry. Is it good?
10641081
It just happens to have a very similar monster as your pumpkin scarecrow and I'm wondering if there's a shared inspiration is all.
Narrator: the scene then zooms into Gloom’s lips and, surprisingly, there are letters that spell “thats. an. order. “

Thank you for taking the time to help and point out those mistakes. Fixed them now. 👍
