Chapter 5 "Betrayal in the Hive" of Collateral Damage Has Been Published

If anyone's following this story, you may be interested to know that Chapter 5 has been posted. That makes me happy as I have only one more chapter left to go -- the story's hit both of its climaxes and now all I have left is lovely denouement. This was one of the most painful chapters I've ever written, as it is all about betrayal and loss, and we see that neither of the parties in that fight over the Everfree really won, even though one of them did get to fly away home.

Poor Ceymi. Poor Strawberry. Poor everypony and everyling save for one particular ling, whose fault this is entirely.

Here is Collateral Damage.
