The cliffhanger hurts, man.
Were implies that they are, no longer. I believe it should be are, not were.
Bacon.
Eee! Years in the making! Years! Augh! The cliffhanger! Damnit!
Aw balls, a cliffhanger. Damn good chapter, as always! And we are not even halfway to endgame yet, it seems! Well, unless some horrid shit inevitably happen and we get the most twisted ending no one expected, yet everyone loved. Anyway, thanks for your great work and can't wait for the next chapter!
Nav spent the whole chapter setting up the chess board.
Trouble is, has Discorded Celestia been playing Mousetrap?
Im suprised there isnt more research into the Fruit. Id have thought Twilight would love to spend all that time and effort researching the various hybrid chains possible, filling her pokherdex etc?
Then again, poor Spike.
Oof, walked off the cliff into a bellyflop in the lake below...
Also never realized that I was a grouping of nanites... seriously when you named them Jonathan I struggled trying to read those parts without laughing and thinking about it
I have the nagging feeling the same thing that happened with spike will happen here. You know, a pissed sun goddessy Alicorn getting angry and evaporating the internal elemental. Have a fire do it to be safe or put that anti-magic ring on her horn.
Ow, the fucking cliffhanger. As much as i would appreciate all this going according to plan, Nav's gonna get ganked, ain't she?
chances
Also, did it feel like Nav had a couple moments where she couldn't identify where a thought came from? Is her downward spiral going exponential, or are the multitude of outside influences on her mind just becoming more apparent?
-suddenly DISCORD
you want me to put myself in a cryosleep pod and wait for the next chapter? cause this sliff hanger makes me want to kill myself
Who here thinks discord is gunna fuck it up?
I bet when Nav goes into a coma it's going to be straight out of Silent Hill where all his horrors and fears are metaphorically represented as horrifying monsters.

Those fruit are a Lamashtu cultist's dream. There's a mask literally designed to make crossbreeds of literally anything that can pass their genetic code in some way.
Such a perfect cliffhanger. I'm super hyped. I have felt recently that the style of writing has changed and the banter has almost gotten stale. But no matter how many times I re read I never get bored of it. Bravo Sir. Bravo.
Ahhhhh!!!!! That cliff-hanger stings!!!! (2nd degree burns.)
Soon we may get to see if everything in mostly as it seems, or a convoluted illusion. Can't wait! As always great work, things are moving forward now.
That cliffhanger...
I've never been so aroused yet so flaccid in my entire life.
Into a scene of Discord sitting on the throne, the walls and pillars covered in strawberry tasting blood, everypony gagged and tied up and hanging upside-down on the roof by their tails, and using Celestia as a foot stool.
Yes? No? Maybe?
Cliff hangers galore!
Thanks as always for the chapter. I enjoy reading them, and would be absolutely destroyed if you stopped.
Hymn... the chief maid beating feat right before they get there and not even acknowledging them .. sounds like fear ... got a feeling discords silenced aqua and is in their with celestia and is about to ruin there day ... id laugh if he then pulled out twilights camera and took a picture of their shocked expression.
Nav could always let twi/gilda and chrys/fleur marry then be the mistress to both couples. I like the idea of the herd personally but until nav goes into a coma and changes his monogamous is good and polygamy is bad upbringing to thinking polygamy is good within reason and monogamy is bad ... i say within reason because without that hed have 20 wives by the end of it all.
Well nav has struck me as the biblical anti christ the coma is the mid point of the tribulations... i guess 3 days in the coma. at least this is what im getting here. Ive not paid attention to the whole scrolls bowls trumpets and crumpets... heh 7th crumpet.
Anyway, time to see the arent my wings pretty celestia... toy lestia?
Meh
NOooo not the cliffhanger!
Finally, the confrontation with Celestia. Let's see how this resolves.
I'm half expecting this to go poorly somehow. In most stories, I would be convinced that the plan would fail. But this story is unique in that sometimes an anticlimax makes sense based on Nav's preparations. It might completely ignore literary conventions, but I really enjoy actually feeling uncertain about how or if something will happen.
OUCH MY CLIFFHANGING HAND!
My nerves are shot. Holy fuck.
I. Can't. Wait.
There is one thing that has really been bothering me, and that has to do with both Anonymous and Navarone.
From what little that we know of Anonymous, we understand that he was a scientist, more specifically a biological engineer, and the savior of life on the Earth, with both convictions and hope to save humanity. Whatever it was despite his trauma as a child, he somehow found life worth living and at the very end just doing his best in just sticking it to the D.
Navarone at this point however seems to not exhibit any of those qualities. He has no aspirations, ambition, not even the desire to really live. He doesn't even care if the world burns or not. He even fantasizes it! I mean, yeah he has been through some very, very messed up s@#%, but even before that he hasn't shown any desire to do anything! Instead he has just been hopelessly drifting in Discord's narrative. I don't know about you, but i'm pretty much hoping that the coma really delves into Nav's iner psych and allows for some positive character development for him, and alot for a better understanding of who he is. I know it is too easy for it to be a fix all, but I'm really hoping it will do away with all of that self loathing, detached, and suicidal behavior.
(Great chapter by the way. Really anticipating the next.)
The cutscene and dialogue trees are over, now for the QTEs.
For real though, there is absolutely zero chance this goes smoothly.
oof. I was hoping for that celestia thing this chapter...
Did anyone else see the wall break

I'm expecting Daybreaker to make an appearance and burn out Aqua from Celestia, or something similar.
I think the best longterm plan for Celestia would be forced retirement to seclusion after her position is rendered obsolete. As for Nav's plan... it bothers me. It sounds like he's trying to create a utopia where everyone's needs are met, but utopias ALWAYS fail. People NEED to struggle and work for their wants and needs in some capacity or the society eventually falls apart. There have been overpopulation experiments done with mice that showed this.
I foresee the inevitable plot twist is close at hand.
Please let this go as planned... I know I've speculated that Celestia wouldn't go down so easy, but at this point Nav could do with things going smoothly for a bit.

As I've said to authors who mess up stories which were developing great subtle conflicts (eg. person vs. self) by ham-handedly adding/boosting villains, there are many different kinds of struggles.
A utopia will be impossible as long as we remain psychologically human, but I share Voltaire's perspective on Leibniz's "the best of all possible worlds" excuse for the state of things. (We may not be able to achieve perfection, but there's still a lot of room for improvement.)
I have a very imortant question: is it worth to start reading a 2.7milion word story or find something else?
Mark 3.04.2019 as the day I begun to read. Gonna catch up with you guys in 2 years
Man fuck yo cliff hanger.
You fuck! I saw it coming and the cliffhanger still hit me. Damnit!

Absolutely, been reading this since highschool 7 years ago and it's still my favorite thing to read. The writing quality is great and character/world/plot depth is phenomenal. You just have to be prepared for the rollercoaster this story is.
9540123
Let me answer this in the quickest and most concise way possible: Absofreakinglutely. I started reading back in August of 2015 and every time I see a new chapter it brightens my day.
9540123
So worth, best story ever.
One word... Discord.
9540123
It you want a story that will hold your attention then yes
9540123
As someone who's damn near grew up reading this story I can honestly say yes it is.
I honestly can't tell if it's going to go really well or really badly!
Maybe Celestia trips and breaks her neck and everyone is left to go O_O
Why is Nav such an ass now
Someone needs to draw this
What are the chances that Nobel is a spy and will tell Celly about this. Well they still have Aqua in Celly's head so I guess she can't do anything? But I'm expecting some kind of twist coming up soon
Oof, can't wait to see Trixie there. Wonder if she's still sane
That's just fucking adorable. It's like having a real family
I personally believe that Nav would look so much better if she decided to dress in a suit rather than a dress with high heels. idnno I feel like if Nav decided to wear a suave black suit carrier a rapier or something she would look hella cool. She would be a strong woman who would save everyone. or maybe I'm watching too much Kakegurui and i'm thinking about Rei Batsubami too much
Carl right
Then Jonathan was clearly mistaken. Carl is the most pure.
Also how the hell is Flo the most pure. Wasn't she corrupted by Nav
Also who the hell is Flumen
Also how are elements who don't have hosts not pure
Isn't this feeding Nav's addiction
I love how Blossom is literally the only sane pony (batpony?)
Why not storing your memory or something and then using one of your clones when the coma doesn't work and try again?
Holyshit Cadance 1000 iq
Cadance best princess
I don't see why these ponies are so stupid. Why would you ever want to kill Celly. I know that she's an evil tyrant but her image is one of power and respect. By killing her literally 99% of all the ponies in Equestria would hate Nav and his gang and a revolution would soon follow. Even if she's controlled into confessing her crimes nopony would care because of how good their life has been, for the most part. It's better to have a puppet Celly than cause everypony in EQ to rise against Nav and cause Nav to become a tyrant. How do they not see that.
Well the planet is finite. You all gotta move out sooner or later even with infinite energy.
mmm this would work fairly well since Equestria is literally the most powerful nation in the world. It's like the US back in the day with their hard and soft power. But this would cause most countries to bend their backs towards EQ and follow their plan since EQ has so much influence right? This is unless Nav is ruling, most other ponies/being would definitely manipulate this process to make EQ stronger and richer by threatening other countries, right. This is process is flawed in so many ways (Proxy wars can start easily, there's only one representative per nation making it easier for states to bribe other states, etc.) but I really can't think of a better solution than something like the EU but on a global level.
Yes this is literally the only way to eliminate wars. But really, which nation will want to give up their own sovereign power?
So kinda like if you don't join we'll impose sanctions and tariffs on you? I mean what's stopping nations that are in the organization to then trade to nations that are not in the organization for a higher price than normal but a lower price than what the rule says? There's a huge incentive to capitalize on this free wealth. Think of it economically, if the price level is too high (b/c tariffs caused by the organization) then the demand for that good won't be that high because there will be less consumer surplus/people might not cover their marginal costs. But now if a country wanted to capitalize on that high demand they would secretly lower the price level of a good so they can earn even more profit than usual. There's really nothing stopping these countries from not following these rules. Even though the incentive is that Discord will fuck everyone, no one really gives a damn because they don't see the Discord currently fucking them over, so they really won't give a damn about these policies. It's like global warming in our world, it should be an inventive since it'll literally fuck everyone over (like discord) and yet we don't give a damn.
In addition, introducing neoliberalism isn't a smart idea. Increase wealth gap, consumer propaganda, consumer > Citizen, transnational corporations having more power than the state, race to the bottom, there are just so many flaws with introducing neoliberalism (which I'm assuming is what's happening because Nav lived in America and was literally fed Neoliberal propaganda.)
Everyone is commenting about the cliffhanger so so will I. MAN, I HATE YOU REEEEEEE. Okay now that that's out of my system great chapter. I'm hella hyped for the Tartar arc it sounds x10 better than the bunker arc and that shit was pretty good already. Also can't wait to see best pony Starlight soon (I remember you promise, you better not break it). Man I wish Nav could just tone down his nihilism and take it easy and love himself. :(
9540348
holy shit, me too. I've been reading a story for 7 years...
9540123
Honestly I'd say that it's up to you, at least for me the reason I still keep up with the story is because I've committed almost a decade of my life to reading it. It has sentimental value to me and probably a lot of the other readers as well. If you can put up with a protagonist who is an absolute ass then I can say it's very much worth the read.
Gorram cliffhangers...
I can't believe you've done this.
