Ooh, Fafhrd and the Mouser? Nice to see someone else who knows of Fritz Leiber's fantasy stories.

Okay, let me just say. This story was awesome. You really did a great job capturing the characters of Fafhrd and the Mouser. It was nice to see Ningauble as well, I always got a kick out of the duo's wizardly patrons. And also, while I kind of wish we could seen the Mane 6 actually talk to the heroes from Newhon, this story was still a blast from start to finish.

Thank you so much for the kind words, they really mean a lot!

"even that of your much toted friendship"

Does friendship come in a tote bag, then?

Also, at least once you have a grocer's apostrophe in "elements". Also "adventures." Remember, you never use an apostrophe to make a plural form.

Better mind your P's and Q's.
I saw two U.F.O.'s last night.
I love the music of the 80's.

(Yes, there is variance in usage in all of these cases.)

9441387 I stand corrected, although the exceptions you cite are falling out of usage. I see "80s" as often as "80's" these days.

Thanks for the heads up! I wrote this with about five hours of sleep and a head filled with rubber fumes, so I'm not surprised there were some shameful grammatical errors. Going back to fix them now!

I have to read this one later just to see what trouble Fafhrd and the Mouser get into. At least they may stay away from the girls for once.

This is a good story. I'm a fan of old-school swords and sorcery, but I admit I never thought I'd see someone bring Fafhrd and the Mouser to Equestria. I really like how they were unable to speak Equestrian, even if it limited interaction with the ponies. Too many stories have humans and others able to speak with the ponies and no explanation.

I enjoyed the inclusion of Ningauble. Though the Princesses should have been more careful with him; that guy is a bigger pain and trickster than Discord.

Wow. I never expected to see this crossover, but I'm glad it's here. I can't say I'm over the moon with how you integrated the worlds; the ponies immediately calling in another work of fiction because their "I win" button isn't working and they don't try anything else leaves a bad taste in my mouth, especially when the methods that resplve the conflict seem entirely within the locals' capabilities. Plus, there's terribly little actual interaction between the two series. Half the fun of a crossover is seeing the characters play off of each other. Granted, the language barrier does make sense...

Those objections aside, this was a delightful fantasy romp. Thank you for it.
