I was hardly prepared for this...

Even though I am an avid reader of the "human finds himself into the equine society" kind of genre, most of those stories which happened to have an average human as the main character were simply.. absurd, biased against humanity or simply illogical right off the bat, mostly picturing ludicrous approaches and results, ranging from resorting to outright socipathy for no apparent reason to instantaneous mutual affinity between two alien beings who had never met before, again, for no actual reason.

As a result, those had little to none useful advices... nothing that can aid me now on dealing with the real thing, just dumb, over-the-top, childishly written perspectives... like a supersoldier's violence-ridden one-track mind, a fanboy's squeamish and annoyingly upbeat vision, a lonely human' sugarcoated dream of making out with equines and so on...

I figure I have no choice but to carry on my own particular approach by avoiding such distorted perspectives... we'll see the results soon enough.

The Stalker universe... only this time, set up on Equestria.

Even after numerous years, Equestria still suffer from the results of the accident. roads are covered by dangerous anomalies, forests are inhabited by monstrous creatures... but there are also marvelous treasures to be found, trinkets with amazing proprieties called artifacts. A pony could get rich or dead real fast.
But what is this "The Zone" place that Equestria has been turned into? many consider it as a source of abhorrent and threatening dangers. others, a marvelous gift sent by the gods. some other ponies say it is an opportunity to cash out bits , and even others, consider it just their home.... But to what point are these descriptions true?
