All work and no play keeps the ponies away

So it turns out that twelve hour work days take away things like 'energy to write' and 'ability to form coherent sentences'. The good news is the current crunch time at work should be over by the end of the week, but it has set back current chapter completion by at least that long. Fortunately, Thanksgiving vacation is around the corner, so look for a new chapter by the end of the month at the latest.

Oh, and it turns out that an MLP crossover needs to actually have LPs in it, so this chapter will have those too.

Just as a little preview, in this chapter we find out more about what Grayborn is doing in Equestria. For those of you who know your history, I have five words for you: Spanish conquest of the Americas.
