Alright, wonder what parts of this chapter I might end up rereading due to parts of this chapter existing in the other.
(1) Alright, it seems we're starting off with Mortis and Grogar seeing each other.
Oh this Grogar is apparently more stronger than the one Shadow killed, and already due to the paradoxical nature that he is, Mortis wants him gone.
But it looks like Triad and Penny are struggling against Grogar's minions, summoned by his own Onoma. Did the Grogar Shadow killed have an Onoma?
Seems the apprentice Grogar has already exceeded his power? Huh.
At least Grogar spared Mortis for the moment and is telling him that he should go after and eliminate the Demi humans. Good for Mortis, bad for Beatrix's group. More threats!
(2) also for some reason Google Translate wants to replace Mortis's name with Morris from Madagascar. XD
(3) Hmmm, Grogar is on Omen's side, pretty bad as that's yet another massive villain (two with the apprentice) that Beatrix and Oona's homeland has to face. Hopefully their world won't fall and become destroyed!
(4) Hmmm, already read Beatrix's scene, Eclipsed Scene, Lightning's Scene, The Call, Beatrix and Zeloph talking, wow all of that I've already read. Good thing a bit more is added after Beatrix leaves Zeloph alone.
(5) Nooo, Quicksilver passed on! Sadness. He was a good character
(6) I guess the poker scene is related to the one in PoW. Fun to see the Demi people interact with each other.
(7) Oh, I didn't expect to see Shadow dreaming. She truly is on the brink of death, but even in her dream Zeloph is there trying to keep her alive.
…
Oh…
…
End of UaR comment.
Yeah it seems that if I read one of the chapters it basically amounts to 70% of the material. Guess that's what happens now that both are sharing the same story.
Wonder how the rules of the soul works given that it'll be a key part in the future. Midnight's cracked soul, the two suits of armor obtaining their spirits in PoW and well…
Nah I'm sure we'll see her again. The power of determination! Also I refuse to believe Demi Shadow isn't real, even though it actually isn't (Yet!)
And thus I've read both chapters. Love what's going on! Can't wait to see the next one!

5) The title is very appropriate this round.
7) Not sure why you keep pushing for Demi! Shadow Scythe like that was always meant to happen.

(5 + 7) Well Demi Shadow means that she would be alive, and I refuse to believe that such a good character is going to die. Like, is "Rest In Peace" meant to say a permanent goodbye to *two* characters?! And technically more if you count PoW's deaths with Trixie's sidekicks also biting the dust.
And well last chapter felt like there was a theory that could fit. Obviously idk the full scope of plans, so I probably was wrong. But still the artwork of Demi Shadow was too good to not be real in the future.
Unless of course it's confirmed that it's an AU idea, and it's probably the case. But seeing Shadow become a Demi Human would be so interesting since we never saw one occur on page (I think).
Anyways right now who knows what can happen. I feel that due to the fact that this story is having a lot of its points being related to souls (Mortis, Beatrix's connection with the Necronomicon, Midnight's cracked soul, the two armor that will be filled with spirit of the fallen warrior and somebody who is currently getting bred, Shadow's fate in the afterlife etc) I have a feeling this isn't the last we'll see of Shadow.
Or at least I hope this isn't the last.
11579532
What artwork..?
11579536
Probably something unofficial.
I'll drop the topic.
Interesting. The cultist scene thought, reminds me of something I had written once, no offense
11579487
1. That Grogar lacked an Onoma. In that tale, Shadow Scythe's creator wanted me to include tons of characters I had little to say about or had no interest in, so unfortunately the story became messy. I actually requested if I could make Shadow Scythe the main villain and got the okay, which is why I also brought in Beatrix to give it focus. Originally it was meant to be more of a roadtrip story focused on the Dazzlings and Sunny, instead of an apocalyptic war involving most of the major MLP players. Generally, I prefer to keep scenes to a handful of characters for more intimacy.
5. A little sooner than I expected, but his story was told so it makes sense. An older character made a nice contrast to much of the cast.
6. One scene here missing from my version is Bellatrix and Moxxi cheating and flirting!
7. Good question about the soul shenanigans with all the weird stuff going on. Unfortunately, the reaper order is broken, so who knows? (Also, a bit of trivia; I based the reaper order on The Masque of the Red Death, specifically the Vincent Price movie.)

(1) Very cool! Didn't know about these things!
(5) Yeah. Sad that he passed away.
(6) Interesting! Hmmm, considering characters do end up dying here, guess it didn't fit???
(7) Hmmm, does heaven exist? As in the afterlife. I assume so due to Shining Force 2 but things could've changed?
11579779
6. Yes, Nota pointed that out, my argument is that most of the clop takes place in PoW. Aside from that, life goes on for the cast, as not all of them know or are emotionally connected to Shadow Scythe. She had the most important person to her at her side by the end...
7. Yes, but I leave vague what it's like.
11579790
Still hope that somehow, some way, Shadow comes back. Because Shadow and Zeloph were indeed the best pair ever.
11579798
Might want to spoiler edit that, sadly more deaths to likely come before the end!
11579810
Nooooo
Can I guess that more people who are already dead / undead / brought to life will die?
If Shadow's death is permanent then I guess that's that. After all, literally every single version of Thunder, Snowy, and Lightning have died. And they've already died once in your world, imagine if they die twice!
Like, if Thunder does come back as the spirit armor and dies then it'll be his third time dying in this world. Lol.
I would rather sacrifice Midnight over Lightning since Lightning might have more things that can be done (though Midnight too has a lot of things to do, even if he's on a timer) but if the story ends up killing her like always or even ends up killing the entire Storm family then I guess that's that. :(
11579820
You can, but spoiler mark it? Also, won't deny nor confirm, lol. Yep, Midnight's family has it rough! Shadow Scythe's too, they're all gone...
11579826
Spoil mark what?
Yeah everyone is dying. Hopefully this story doesn't result in more family extinctions.
11579833
Any hints about future plot points, since you have insider info due to chatting with Nota and I behind the scenes!
11579835
Oh, I don't know anything, never been spoiled. I guess I simply got lucky with point 15 prediction? Things could still end up changing in the final product. Could just as well be other characters.
It's spelt "anaemia". That aside, how the hell is a living paradox even able to exist!?\\\
I had to look up what a Penanggalan was. I'm surprised you decided to dig into Malaysian Mythology. Also, aren't Penanggalan supposed to be women?
Wait. How does Grogar have someone more powerful than him under his command? Also, you might want to replace the highlighted full stop with a comma.
Well, this just complicates things even further. Now Atalanta's life force is trapped inside the Bewitching Bell! How are the heroes going to get hold of that!?
Shouldn't it be "awoken"?
Since the highlighted phrase refers to Zeloph's title, it should be capitalised.
Never mind. Forget what I said in Point 4.😓\
The highlighted comma is unnecessary here.
Beatrix, listen. I too have beaten myself up a lot, but I would never wish to be the centre of a rapefest!😰
Redundant phrase here. Replace with "them".
Shouldn't it be "I"?
I'm confused & disturbed as to how Beatrix can have a nightmare so terrifying & not wake up.
Add "about" here.
If only society had fewer grudges towards those who truly want to redeem themselves.
Replace highlighted comma with a question mark.
Did you mean "reference"?
I hope Pallium doesn't get indigestion.
Took your anger out on her!? You nearly incinerated her out of blind rage!😠
Ummm...they technically are? They need to be opposites to maintain the balance of nature.
Add a question mark here.
So the only way to win such games is to break the rules? Not the first time I've heard a paradoxical solution, but I'm still confused.😵
Is the semicolon supposed to be there?
Replace the highlighted comma with a question mark.
Is its serial number 4014, by chance?😏
Common misconception here. A train is actually a series of railcars connected together. The actual term for a vehicle that pulls a train is "locomotive".
Since it refers to the name of the hand itself, using the singular "pair" will suffice.
5 of a kind? Did Bellatrix sneak an extra card, or does she have a Joker card?
No, no, no, this story isn't over yet! It's titled Undeath & Rebirth, with Atalanta in the centre of the cover with Zeloph! Surely this can't be the last time we see her, right!? Right!?🙁

11. Beatrix was going to finish with "you died!"
17. Eclipsed is respecting her authority, hence calling her by a polite title of Lady Night, thus deferring to her.
27. Possible since Bellatrix and Moxxi traded some cards!
11584063
1./3./5./6./8./10./11./13./15./16./20./22./23./26. As always, thanks for all the grammar suggestions.
2. I’m always looking to write in unheard/unpopular monsters!
3. Just because someone is stronger, doesn’t make them wiser. They are his apprentice, and we’ll learn a lot more about them when we resume with the Omen/Walpurgisnatch plot line.
12. There’s been a lot more nightmares going on in the story recently. I wonder why…
17. I’d argue it’ll get something a lot worse than an upset stomach.
18. You’re telling me you wouldn’t lash out with the wrath of a thousand doors at anyone knowing your lover was dying?
19. It’s a metaphor. Technically, they are different. But they’re apart of the life cycle.
21. Most rules are guidelines, really
24. Seb would want only the very best!
25. His point still stands.
27. She was trading cards with Ana underneath the table. Surprise no ones noticed some of her cards have saliva on them
28. …
