    Help / Hooves of Fate update.

    Background: Back in July of 2024, I developed respiratory problems. By September I had been diagnosed with a benign growth in my sinuses. I spent the next six months wrestling with medical bureaucracy to try to get it removed.

    New Hooves of Fate Chapter

    Chapter Sixty- Eight: EYE OF THE BEHOLDER is out. It only took a month to write (and it's not even a micro chapter like the last two)!

    It's one of those segments where all the characters took me by surprise. I am very happy to share it with you.

    Let me know what you think!

    New HOOVES OF FATE Chapter

    Another chapter of Hooves of Fate is about to drop.
    Just in time for the Summer Sun Celebration/ Festival of the Two Sisters! It's another short chapter, this time focused on Misty Mountain.

    "The Tunnel Whisperer" will release tomorrow night in anticipation of the longest day of the year.

    Discuss.

    Hooves of Fate chapter announcement

    I'll be doing something a little different for the next few Hooves of Fate releases. They will be micro-chapters. Short and sweet. Like...really short.

Night time is real, ergo Princess Luna is real. Discuss.

So, does this mean that Celestia is also real, or is there actually no such thing as daytime?

Truth! Verily, our Princess of the Night doth exist and is most wonderful!

The Sun is just reflecting the glorious light of Best Princess' Moon.

I think that there might be some slight issues with your reasoning there. :)
But then, I expect you also know the story about the sheep, the bush, and the question of the nature of truth... :)


(Oh, for those reading this who might not, though:
Person A is walking down a road and passes a field. A little further down the road, Person B asks Person A if there was a sheep in the field. Person A, who believes they saw a sheep in the field, says yes.
Here's the thing, though: There was indeed a sheep in the field, but it was actually out of sight of Person A. What Person A thought was a sheep was actually a sheet draped over a bush.
So, Person A made a statement that both a: was factual and b: was believed factual by Person A at the time they made it. However, the foundation of Person A's belief was flawed such that they would have believed it to be factual even if it was counterfactual. Was Person A's statement to Person B, then, true?)
(...Actually, after typing that out, I'm not entirely sure how relevant that is to this question specifically, but I came to mind and I think it's philosophically interesting enough to be worth sharing, so... [shrugs].)
