And we are live! · 10:01pm Dec 10th, 2017
After more than a year of waiting, the long-awaited story of Sunset Shimmer and her beloved has finally arrived. A continuation of my unusually popular She's Gonna Kill Me! has a successor at last, titled simply, Till the Dawn.
For those of you who have the Mature filter turned on, I'll post a link here so you can access it: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/345988/till-the-dawn
Be aware that, as this is a Mature rated story on this site, the content within may be disturbing or offensive to some viewers. I was occasionally risque or violent in the original story, but I believed Till the Dawn would not be fully itself if there was any part of it held back. I always want my work to have a soul, to feel and sound real. To do this, I decided to drop the pretense, and simply let the world unfold on its own.
This is a story of war. War, and love, life, pain and sorrow... this is the story of a soldier and the woman who loved him. I did my best to write this with the most accuracy I could muster. After all, the life of the Cavalryman is not just a game to me: it is my world, the very life I lead myself. I wanted to portray the life of a soldier as I know it to be: dull and monotonous, filled with the camaraderie I know from my everyday life, and -when the days of war rear its ugly head- horrifying. This is not a story of glory and valor, but of horrible things that must be done, and what it can take to endure them.
This story is dedicated to the warfighter, and the loves to which we all yearn to return to.
I hope you like it.
