Sunspear - First story coming out!

I've been mulling over an alternate universe where things aren't as bright and cheerful as the show, where sitting on a Throne for a 1000 years by herself drives Celestia a little mad at times. I've been following FanOfMostEverything's Imposing Sovereigns ii once and future contest, and realised that a little piece in that universe fits right in.

As luck would have it, there was a slot free at this late time that lines nicely up with my story, so after a frenzy of work I've claimed the spot, and now just have to wait until the story is approved and published.

I can't link the story right now as it's still pending approval, but I'll pop up something once it's out.
