Loss. Everyone goes through it, and Princess Celestia is no exception. Over her long life, she has lost many family members and friends.

It is during these moments of heartbreak that a mysterious stranger appears. He doesn't stay for long, and doesn't say much, but he has been there every time Celestia loses someone important.

Who is he? Why is he there? And why is it that Celestia is the only one who can see him?

This story is a sequel to The Book of Water: The Marriage of the Slave King

The Slave King, the Lord of Earth, was once one of the most powerful deities on the Pantheon. Feared and respected by his peers and enemies alike, he had it all. But then disaster struck, and he was forced to make an unwanted choice. Now he's married to a woman he never loved, bedridden and crippled by some unseen assassin, friendless and vulnerable, buffeted from every side by traitor and enemy alike, and entangled in an endless web of lies and deceit.

Princess Luna, the Beautiful, Lady of Night, was once beloved and desired by all. Once, many sought after her to behold her loveliness and share her wisdom. But now, few seek an audience at her throne in Londwhinium, and even fewer still seem to appreciate her nights. A voice whispers to her, tempting her, taunting her, berating her. She thought marriage would end her loneliness, and bring joy to her desolate heart. She was wrong, she's still unhappy, and the voice refuses to remain silent.

These two souls, bound together by chance and circumstance, each seeking and never finding. Will these two ever find peace, and more importantly each other? Or will they be driven apart, to wander lost and alone in the raging heart of winter?

You have a life, a life you hate. Why, because there's a voice in your head telling you to do that stuff. If you don't do it, your brain starts hurting, shutting down, and you start to die.

So, doing that stuff in front of your friends, just too embarrassing. But then you run into a lady that had the same life as you. That had to go through choices that she didn't like. She explains it all to you:

Do all the missions, complete them, and do them. So, choose:

You know those stories of a guy going in costume to one place or another and having an essential missing piece to their outfit discovered? Yeah, well, this isn't exactly the norm. Ornstein is what our hero goes by, for he doesn't remember...well, much of anything. In this tale, one will follow his journey through Equestria, his memories, and his legend, all to find one simple thing...himself. But given a choice, will he return to his home, or will he remain in Equestria as the Old Dragonslayer?

A man, well-traveled, finally goes to see his heroes.

What he finds when he gets there will surprise him

A LoHaV story

There was a time, you know? When I would work on my essays, visiting the large library/museum, and just read.

I missed those times.

Now, I'm cursed into a statue by the power of rainbows. Granted, I was homicidal, killing Ponies, Minotaurs, Felines, Gryphons, and Diamond dogs (mostly diamond dogs) like flies, and mayhap giving Sombra and Luna a little push wasn't such a good idea (more of the latter than the former).

But hey, when you're the host of THE Darkness, you got to do what you had to do, right? And besides, homicidal tendencies are the normal quirks of Hosts, and sometimes, insanity as well.

Have you ever woken up somewhere you don't recognize? I have, once before. This time was not all that different. Headache? Check. Dry mouth? Check. Upset stomach? Check. Hooves? Uhm, that one is new.

Hi, I'm Bruce and I'm 32. Currently, I'm in a light blue Earth Pony foal's body no one has ever seen before. The rest of Equestria thinks I'm 9 and something really traumatic happened to me. It doesn't help I swear like a sailor and I could really go for a smoke right about now. I just hope that the Everfree Forest, rampaging monstrosities, evil dark abominations against God and the Cutie Mark Crusaders don't kill me before I have just one last drag.

Oh, and ponies are hella creepy when you really think about it. Geez.

A little comedy side project. EDIT: HAHA Main project. More characters to be added if I get that far. Categories might be refined as I write. Entire thing is unplanned except vaguely. Don't Expect excessive cursing to be written out, just hinted at. Oh, and as the character is a 30-ish year old in the body of a 9 year old, sexual jokes might exists but sex itself will not occur.

Special thanks to user Momomojito for the awesome-tastic picture! First fanart, I'm so HAPPY. I've gotten more since then! I should collect it all here. Collected!

Well...
I'm dead.
Nothing I could have done to prevent my own death.
And yet... and yet, my killer is somewhere else. The little parasite was far, far away form my grasp.
I don't want justice. The Nightmare already got that.
No, I want REVENGE.

Princess Celestia and Princess Luna are leading together a combined Army of several different equestrian Races against an supposedly terrifying and unfeeling Enemy.

What kind of Threat are our beloved Princesses are really going to face?

I can only recommend those guys.

The Death Korps of Krieg, seeking atonement from their government's betrayal decades ago, they give their lives willingly in the everlasting fight against the enemies of the Imperium of Man. Averted by even their fellow Guard regiments, they show a high degree of fatalism and an unusual morbidity of habit. Yet they are highly disciplined, morally reliable and self-sufficient soldiers.

The 42nd Siege Regiment had been deployed on Kheltan III to reclaim a supply route that had been attacked by the Eldar. A simple enough task for the stoic men of Krieg. But an ion storm attack and an innocent experiment by an alicorn from another world can make even the easiest of tasks much more difficult.
