I usually dont like self insert stories, but you seem to do it well.

Hey, thanks. I like to think its because Jest is his own character which isn't just a transplanted version of my own personality.
Of all the cross-over fics I've read, this has the best and most novel interaction between main characters of different stories I've seen. It honestly seems like two species that had evolved over time to be this way.
I keep thinking of a hunchback golem with a tree with a wailing face on its back
If I'm not misremembering things, he has neither seen nor heard of him and only knows of the player whom he beat by the name "Angel."
The thought of this cosmic jester having an employer is frightening
Is this confirmation that the two stories take place in the same universe and it is possible for the two to meet?
I don't like him. You make him sound like he would take a simple "hello" as your signature for a Faustian deal

You're not far off.
Go reread the first chapter of 0 AP.
Why else do you think they are now sequel/prequel stories to one another? :P
You are quite observant.
Thank you for the comment! I know it may have sounded as though I was being sarcastic or mocking but I am indeed being genuine. I'm glad so much of what I intended came out in the work!

shouldn't you be encased in stone... or retired with Fluttershy
I did not notice that. I normally don't pay attention to the description after the story is tracking

A fair assumption to make, this is one of the few times its mattered.
I just realized how is Xathrid supposed to help fight without his army of Undead?
And the argument can be made that all of My Little Pony villains are not evil. Most just have good reasons to do stupid things. Queen Chrysalis needed to feed her changelings (the queen is just too prideful to realize love freely given is stronger). Sombra was being ripped apart by the crystal heart every year (IDW comics).
The only major villains that I can think of that have no reason to be evil are Cozy Glow, Tirek, and Discord (good luck stopping Discord before he met Fluttershy or after Fluttershy dies)
Love it very youneack can't wait to read more!
Nice persuasion 100!
This was a nice follow-up two the two previous chapters lol
That was a good story so far goodluck with the rest of it.
Is this a sequel? Or a spin off?

Both, but mainly a spin off.

But isn't the previous story still incomplete?

I am aware. If you check it out it makes sesne.
I find that inquiry rather unnecessary as Nan already established in chapter 1 that she had atleast seen the MLP:FIM show. A better question would be something like "Have you never seen a superhero movie or like that?" or even have Xathrid clarify what movie he's talking about.
Aside from that, great chapter!

Xathrid is engaging in the age old pass time of teasing an old person.

I forgot that was a thing. Thank you for clarifying!
You're should be your, and you need a comma after amulet.
