A long time ago a prophecy was made by my ancestors, that a time would come when one of our wolf kind would be needed. A dark presence was coming toward our land, our homes. What it wanted most of all was to destroy our peaceful way of life, take our forest village for its own, and bathe the grass and trees in our blood.
But the prophecy states, if a pony can love the wolf for who he is, together their power would be enough to defeat this evil, and vanquish it back to the bowels of Tarturus from whence it came. So comes our story in the present day, when the evil looms near. Will we succeed? Or will we be doomed?

Timberwolves: Guardians of the Everfree
_{By Blackthorn of Thicket, Princess Luna of Canterlot, and Apex of Everfree.}

This volume explores the colorful, mythical tale of the Everfree timberwolves. Part history and part study, the authors provide their experiences, discoveries, and stories. From creation, design, and communication, to the ecological impact of these golems, a full breadth of topics are explored. Each author has hoof-crafted and raised at least one timberwolf, and today the legend of the Vorku species is finally shared with the world.

This is a brief "Humanized Pony Visits Earth" tale, based on a minific I wrote for (but was unable to submit to) the July 2017 "TBD" Writeoff.

Rated "Recommended" by Titanium Dragon! "While the Pony On Earth thing might put some people off, here I felt like it made excellent use of the idea … This is a short and punchy piece, and I think a lot of folks will find it worth their while."

Reviewed by Chris! "It's refreshing to read a story with a clear, explicit moral that nevertheless doesn't beat you over the head."

Reviewed by Present Perfect! "Peering into the darkness of one's own heart is difficult and painful. But this is also about the nature of goodness ... plus, it'll teach you a really unique driving game."
