    WeirdBeard's Stories (10)


    After discovering a piece of the Nightmare's corruption residing within everypony, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna conducted an experiment to extract that magic.  Their efforts were a success on Twilight Sparkle and her friends, but at a heavy cost.  Instead of inanimate objects like the armor from Nightmare Moon, the most negative traits of the bearers were ponyfied.  These manifestations of the Nightmare couldn't reside in Equestria nor could they be destroyed or banished.  The act would also affect the true bearers.  So they called upon a curious stallion to watch over them and guide them to true happiness in a distant, foreign city.  Years later, the situation had worsened rather than improved.  These are the chronicles of their caretaker; in a place that he referred to as 'the last casino.'

    A/N:  Trust me, this summary does not do the story any justice properly.  I promise that you'll find an intriguing plot and better 'summary' if you read the prologue.  I guarantee it.

    Also, guru is my hero once again for the cover image and his encouragement on getting me to write this.  You can find his art here: http://thegamefilmguruman.deviantart.com/

    I was almost put off because of the first chapter but the second one really pulled me in. I look forward to reading more.

    Fun fact, she put that comment on every story on the front page

    >>1111397 But that's a terrible idea. Every story is unique, and deserves it's own unique critiques. Hell, for all we know, you weren't even reading the stories, just slappin' down some major copy pasta to get more people to read your stories. Authors thrive on personalized feed back, and to insult them with what equates to a stamped response is just disgusting.

    'u get the wrong idea. sorry, but im just too lazy to write that everyones story was good differently, so i just copy n paste only if i like the story, but i like everyone's the same. so i write the same thing. and im not advertising... just telling u to do me favor and do the same for me, bcuz i did that for u'

    Too lazy? I'm not too damn lazy to write a featured story, reply to almost every comment, help new authors and clean up damage from people like you. And all I spend is an hour or so a day helping people out. You copy and pasted this for every story on the front page, regardless of whether they were hidden gems or future featured stories. You belittled new authors, making them hunt for non-existent errors and problems. You expect people to like, comment and follow your stories because you pasted bad advice and advertisements onto their stories? By that logic, I ought to go and spam my story on your posts, walls and stories, and see how you bloody well like it. I've spent over an hour now talking to authors about the bad advice you gave, and offering them good advice. If you have nothing good or unique to say about these brilliant stories, unplug your keyboard and go play outside.

    You'll have to excuse my delay on commenting, I'm out with friends at the moment.  I just barely read through these after a buddy was laughing over one.  

    I initially was concerned over how much attention was focused on that topic.  However, I do support what is being said.  I don't mean this to be impolite, but please voice your thoughts on the story as well.

    Thank you and stay classy.  The next chapters will come soon.

    It was one peculiar unicorn, who ended flunking out of the school much later, that performed the spell to crack his egg.  He served as her assistant until she disowned him and left for a life of show business.  Fang would occasionally mention how much he hated her, especially when she went on and on about being great and powerful.
