Captain Neckbeard


Creating prose through the power of majestic facial hair (Hey/Dude)

T

Tasked by the mysterious alicorn tribe, a young Celestia and Luna must leave the safety of their home and venture into the world beyond to uncover their kin's sacred artifact, the Teardrops of Creation. Blinded by urgency and tradition, it is only during the mission that they realize what they're searching for is something far more important than a mere artifact.

Throughout their journey, the estranged Sisters must face hardship from within and without, as they also try to discover the source of a strange sort of magic plaguing Equestria. Unaware that their adventure plays right into a gambit between gods and demigods, vying to shape the future of the world.


The story is complete, and will update every week.

Here's a big shoutout to the Fimfiction thread of /mlp/, which unwittingly or not, but helped create this story.

Also a big thanks to Reviewfilly and The Psychopath for additional help.

There is no original greentext. If you're thinking about /mlp/, their contributions were more in an idea-bouncing capacity.

Already love it and it's only the intro!!! You get a like :heart:

I've put my best scholars on deciphering this comment. I'll report back when they find something.

Welp, I’ve got some chapters to catch up on heheh. Great so far!!!

I'd say this is so far the best chapter in the story yet. Luna finally trusting Celestia and herself and pushing off her indoctrination is a sweet victory. And I really like that this is the moment they got their marks. It's very fimmy. Good job, dude.

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. :twilightsmile:
With that said, this was probably the hardest chapter to write.

Oh, Clover and Starswirl, this should be interesting.

"How?" Discord repeated in mockery "Well, how I couldn't? When it was she who came to me in Tartarus, and set me free!"

Feels like Discord is lying since Arcana only cares about the Teardrops, and having a chaos god running around just makes it harder for the sisters to retrieve them.

And, from Chapter I, it seems like Arcana considers him an obstacle, and is only confident because she think Celestia and Luna can overcome him:

"He won't take them seriously enough to put up any fight. The Sisters will just snatch the artifact from under his nose, and bring it to us."

Though maybe it actually all ties into some master plan?

Your continued readership is appreciated

Though maybe it actually all ties into some master plan?

Oh, you might never know with these alicorns. Or with a chaos god...
All I'll say is that everything will clear up in the end.
