42 Has Been Achieved! · 7:54pm Mar 14th, 2016
We celebrate all sorts of stupid numbers in fandom simply because we can. One many will recognize is the number 42. After working hard since December 5, 2015 to gather followers for my King, pimping this page like a Ho, creating the online Kingdom group Sombra's Crystal Slaves and spewing out 37,348 words in his Glorious Name, it has paid off as far as The Mice are concerned. Three months and seven days later (this weekend), Hail King Sombra has achieved the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything, which, if you are a fan of science fiction long enough on this planet, you recognize from The Hitchhikers Guide to the Universe as said answer sans the Question.
Hence the mice reference.

So a logical question might now be "Where does Hail King Sombra go from here in our quest for utter and complete domination of FIMFiction?".
After discussing the inherent peculiarities of the number 42 with His Majesty and Tale Weaver over Saturday morning breakfast, we gave birth to a disgustingly funny idea of a comedy story which will be titled, "All the King's Mice". By order of my two cohorts and the Mice, it will be released upon the day of our 42nd blog post, which will, at my current rate of blog production at approximately every other day or so, will occur in two weeks. No words have been written yet, but to give you a taste of what insanity is to come, imagine this: "King Sombra discovers the ultra complexities of time travel theory his consort/TimeWitch Nyx lays out in his new magical studies are easy compared to wrapping his head & kingly crown around the bizarre revelation he in fact is not in control of the Crystal Empire, but in fact, intergalactic mice hiding in the castle are!"
Stick around to see what extreme measures Sombra resorts to to evict these usurpers of his crown as he yet again discovers just how off-kilter and and downright strange his lovely Nyx's world is when it comes to opening the doors to the mystic realms of temporal physics beyond his own comparatively simple mastery of the Dark Arts.
We have the answer ^_^
I hope you write the story soon. The sea ponies have reported that the dolphins have just left the planet on their own accord. They said, "Thanks for all the fish".
I'm going to get some towels.

3809145 HA! You, my torture-loving, fellow Sombraphile-in-story-crimes are most definitely NOT harmless when it comes to harassing poor Private, and now Barricade as well! Does your shame know no bounds?!?
3809200 Shame? Shame.... uh... one second
*Flips through a dictionary*
Ooooh, shaaaame.
No, not really.
