The Statue Garden has a story stretching almost from the beginning of Equestria... here are some snapshots from it.
This is meant to be paired with my story "Statues" please read it before reading this. It's really not that long.

well then.
i did like this 1 shot.
sad but really full of emotions.
thank you for this
999798 Thank you
Statues was an exploration of bravery, duty, and sacrifice. Majesty gave up everything to fight in a war that might never come. This, though, seems a bit unnecessary. By showing that the statues were needed, it makes what Majesty did seem..... Not shallow, just... Less noble. She had an option, a decision to make. If she refused and ran away, whatever, there might not be a war. If there was, and she wasn't around, a lot of innocent ponies would die. By becoming a statue, if there wasn't a war, she'd have given up everything for nothing.
Also, I didn't really get very much emotion from this. I mean, I'm usually a rock. I rarely feel compassion or sympathy for characters, but when I feel it, I feel it. I had a lot of emotions going through me by the end of Statues, but this..... I felt complete detachment from a character I had grown to like.
I'm really not sure what the point of this fic is, in other words. If it's closure, I really don't think Statues ever needed it. Some things are best left open ended, you know?
Still, it was well-written, and aside from the complaints above, it's a pretty decent story. Certainly above average.

do you like xplay by any chance.
lol
999959 Honestly, I just got the mental image in my head and felt I had to write about it. I don't always write to make a person cry or feel fear, happiness, or extreme emotion. Sometimes I write to create an image.
It was supposed to be about death and dying before you finish what you lived to accomplished. It's about having to leave life before you feel ready. I probably should had expanded a little bit but I wasn't quite sure how after I wrote it out.
I'm still a writer in progress. lol
1000018 I guess I can understand that. It DOES actually make a lot of sense, after reading it a second time. The theme was just a little bit muddled. To quote the Nostalgia Critic, "ASK ME WHAT IT MEANS! ASK ME WHAT IT MEANS!"
Good try, though.
1000070 lol! thanks.
1000076 Holy shit, since when does the Featured box have 10 slots? INB4 news post!
1000087 I know! I noticed it too! dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/lolface_Celestia.png AWESOME!!!
1000017 I have no idea what you're talking about!
Will you write about what war they are fighting?
And about all the others that were by the fire?
1000178 All in good time :).... which may be a long time but yes I do plan to explain it all later.... and some other things.
Interesting story.
Normally I would find something witty to say, or really anything else to say, but today just isn't that kind of day.
whatever. thumbs up from me.
1000388 lol. No problem. thanks
Reading this while listoning to ' black hawk down end credits' really tore at my heart. I'll be sure to keep this in mind when I get water boarded next week.
1005068 good luck! Have you been maced yet?
1005716 Maced? No, but one things for sure, it will suck.
1006011 Yeah...
I liked this story. I do expect to see some type of explanation about what led up to this. If you don't plan on writing something about you could always tell me what you like to think like before. I always like to know!
1014012 I do plan on writing a story in the future. lol
1014035 Ahh even better! I know I have been off and on here for a while but I always keep an eye out for your stories and even print them off and show my friends. I just love your stories. I could possibly do cover art for you in the future if you ever need it. I have gotten handy at doing so it seems.
1014040 Really? That would be awesome! dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/Scootaloo_lolface.png I might actually take you up on that in the future
But... you serously print out my stories to show your friends?... wow
1014099 Yes I really do. They are amazing and my friends love them. Just ask any time and I will gladly try to help you.
1014129 ok thanks! I'll let you know!
1014135 Anytime!
all i can say is....MAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAORMAOR
cuzz i love reading these stories........and since you will be writing more for the "Statues Saga"(thats what im gonna call it)i will continue to read them
1047000 slight clarification: there is no direct sequel to "Statues" but there will be one coming up to explain when they are used. So it's not an actual series but call it what you want :P
1047633
ah i see........
1048684 eee-YUP!
Hmm, I'm left feeling like there was more to this. Like this is an excerpt from something much bigger. Reading that you were hoping to write a story that tells the events that are going on lifted my hopes on this
Whether it will happen, time will only tell.
This seems like this is ending in the middle of the main event. The finale battle is taking place and the story ends right in the middle of it without anything explained other than we won't know the outcome of the battle. I like this actually. Not every warrior comes back from battle. There are those that go in to a battle and never find out the outcome because they were killed in the middle of it. This was both sad and touching.
~Have a good one.
1082829 thank you. Yeah... it is somewhat abrupt. lol I may come back in the future and change that.
There is no greater hell on this earth, then a war that doesn't correspond to your beliefs. For it doesn't matter how strong you think you are, because in the end, if you don't belief in the cause its self. YOU. WILL. FAIL. And your enemy's would love to see you fail.
And to see this happen to somepony that waited so long to fight a war that does not correspond to him simple makes me laugh.
O_e I can't help but feel that all hell is about to break loose.
Oh... I see what you did there....
Mi Gusta.

Every chapter brings more tears.
This series has made me a complete, sobbing mess.
