    The Dragon Game

    You know the one.


    A sheaf of papers, prefaced with a short letter, all written in a sturdy, simple hand.

    Abbot Stillwater,

    A new project, and an explanation!

    Hey folks,

    Alternate title for this blog post: I'm Doing a Thing (and I'm looking for help)

    I don't think anyone is surprised that my pony writing has been on a bit of a hiatus for a while, and my presence on this site is mostly to lurk-and-read rather than finish my long-delayed stories. What you might not know, though, is what I've been doing instead of pony writing.

Salvation (Unabridged) · 12:55am Sep 17th, 2012

Hey folks,

My latest story just went live. Those of you who follow this blog know it's actually a revision of a story I wrote using an alternate account during my deployment for Kits' romance competition. I was fortunate enough to win the competition, but due to the time constraints imposed by the contest, I didn't feel that the story was really complete.

I wanted to fix that, and over the next few weeks I'll be posting the 'unabridged' version of Salvation. You can find the first two chapters here.

It comes with new artwork, too!

Warning: this story is rated mature. I'm not kidding. Do not read if you are under 18.

Seriously.

Do not read if under 18? That's pretty much saying "come break the rules!"

So tempting, but tragedy tag :fluttershysad: does it at least have a happy ending?

Since you're putting mature fics into this account, are you going to continue using SexyBack for stories?

On a related note, I'm happy that Salvation is being continued (well, improved would be a better word I suppose), it's still one of the best shipping stories I've read yet.

You know, that tag was generating a lot of questions, so I took it off.

The story has a happy ending. It had to -- that was part of Kits' contest rules.

:yay: more stories to read! :twilightsmile:

edit: also, if it has emotional moments but ends happily, use the sad tag (tragedy being for emotional pain that is reverser-able)

Woah, that cover art. Having read the original, I can't help but wonder if it answers a certain unanswered question.

363950 I'll freely admit, that tag alone was what kept me from reading it, even though I obviously knew the contest rules.

Now I've no excuse not to read it. Damnit.

Does anyone have the source for the artwork?

363957
If the question is, "What was the accident," then yes, it does. All that and more is explored in detail in the new version.

:yay::yay::yay::yay::yay::yay::yay:

That sums up my brains right about now

Holy...! If I had known it was YOU who wrote this story, I would have read it long ago! Gah, hindsight is a real...yeah.

Well, okay. Looks like I have something to do during my break tomorrow morning!

That's some nice cover art, there. Me likes.

dat artwork!

Holy crap you can draw. :rainbowderp:

Is this up on DeviantArt?

Your art is exceptional, you know that, right? Far out. A man of many talents!

364153

Whoa. Is there nothing you cannot do? :rainbowhuh:

I'm trying to figure out a story cover for my impending sadfic, and that dissolve effect is quite fitting. It's tempting to ask if you're open for commissions...

Should i read the 'original' before reading this or should i just read this version and not bother with the previous version?
