A thousand years ago Equestria was plunged into darkness for 3 days. Crops froze, accidents plagued the land, and finally; Celestial bodies fought for the fate of the world. But across the globe the Zebra's experienced something quite different. Zecora knows the legends, and has three little foals to share the tale with.
AU Notes: The African legends and names I used are real and links can be found at the end of the chapter.

Neat. I like the idea of eternal night in Equestria causing eternal day in other parts of the world. Most people tend to take it for granted that when the sisters raise or lower the sun or moon it applies to the whole world. Be interesting if they were actually rotating them around the planet.

Thank you, though I take it you havent red it yet?

...no, I read it. Did I miss something?

No, the way I read your comment I thought you were commenting on the idea but hadn't read it.

Ah. The bits with the CMC are cute and funny and I liked the legend. "Just so" sorts of stories always appeal to me. How the leopard got his spots and so on. But what I like even more in fanfic is when people take something that's been established in the canon and do a new and interesting twist on it, which is why this piece really stood out to me, so I just commented on that first. :P

That means a lot, your one of the 3-4 writers who helped inspire me. Your actually the first author I began following on EQD when I first got in to fiction.
So really, thank you.
Well I enjoyed this a lot. I guess I'm a lot like Uncle up there in I love legends and lore like this so.... yeah it's all good. Sadly if there was some form of constructive crit I could give it's locked up in my head... darn you all night reading sessions... my brain needs sleep to function.
All I can say is, well done... and Zecora deserves more love. That's all.

She is my favorite char from the show followed by AJ. I am very happy with the fic and hope to get it on EQD soon, but I think I had some technical problems.
Still it is nice to know that I made something that was hard to critiasize, even if it was after a long night.
Does this fic rock?
YES
Do I desire more?
Haha, really though, I love the way you blended legends and stories with the logical idea that eternal day happened too. Also, I love Zecora.

I am, actually working on getting it EQD ready. Thanks for vote of confidence. Try my Trixie fic if you like the style.
Very intriguing. Nice take on the NMM idea too.
Fascinating little story, excellent job.
