New Story - Gatekeeper: Prince of Darkness

Hey there everybrony! It's been a while since I made one of these, huh? Now I know what you are all thinking and don't worry, I'm still working on The Guardian (K)Night, and the revisions are coming in slow and steady. But that's not what this is all about. No, if you're seeing this, it's because I want you to know that I've made yet another story, titled Gatekeeper: Prince of Darkness. It a collaborative story (the first of such I've ever done) by myself, Alternate Madness and wille179. The reason behind this fic is something most of you other writers have probably experienced before, put simply I was minding my own business, when an idea came to me. The idea wouldn't leave me alone until I wrote it down, and eventually, it grew into a story all its own. This story is also my first attempt at writting inside another author's established cannon, and takes place within the Gatekeeperverse of wille179's fic Black Queen, Red King. The basic premise of the verse is that an average human sudden becomes connected to their Equestrian counterpart, gaining all of their counterparts powers and hearing their voice inside of their head. Anyways, here's the teaser for my new story below.

Once, many years ago now it seems, I was like you. Quiet. Normal. Mundane. Human. But that was a long time ago. Now, I am Changed. I am Connected. I am different. I am a Gatekeeper. And I have a destiny to fulfill.

Something is coming. I can feel it deep in my bones, and hear it in the whispers of the Void. Great and Terrible and Hungry, it comes, and nothing shall stand in its way. It will consume us all.

But I am a Gatekeeper, and I am not powerless. I have been given many gifts, and with them I have founded an empire, and one day soon all the world shall know my name. One day soon, my power will will extend to the corners of the earth. One day soon, I shall become as a god among mortals.

And it will not be enough. My power will never be enough, and I cannot face what is to come alone. I must seek out those that are like me, those with power, those whose souls span to worlds beyond our own, those who Keep their own Gates. Only together will we stand a chance, only together will we survive. Only together, will we live.

It began with a dream, and will end with a nightmare. Let That Which Hungers come from beyond the veil, for I shall stand ready for it. I am the Prince of Darkness, Keeper of the Gate of Shadows. I am a Gatekeeper, and I fear no evil.

Expect to see it on the front page soon.
