Signal Boost: Hang

If you're in the mood for something profound, and perhaps slightly disturbing, check out Hang by AShadowOfCygnus!

Recent archaeological expeditions to far-flung corners of the Old Kingdoms have revealed a wealth of pre-Celestian artefacts, dating as far back as the Hearthfire Wars. These artefacts shed a light on an era we of contemporary Equestria really know very little about, and the stories they share range from the highest court intrigues to the humblest backwater folktales.

This account, found engraved in the wall of an old Pegasi garrison known as the Eastmarch, relates the final night of a condemned mare, in one of the last wars of the pre-Celestian era. It has been translated for the benefit of the modern reader.

It is not a happy story. But it is a very good story.

Also he says that I'm inimitable and I don't even know what that is.

I'm not sure if you actually don't know what it is, but this will probably help someone... it means, "so good, or unusual, as to be impossible to copy."

Well, I couldn't not signal boost it. 'Tis a wondrous story. Not one that cheers the heart, of course, but very, very good. The kind that stays with you.

You really do know how to warm the cockles of a crabby man's heart, Admiral.

Though, of course, given our discussions during the editing phase on this one, I'm curious to see how far you'll even get into the other one . . .
