This story first began as an attempt to spite a writer whose work I was displeased with. Sort of an "Anything you can do, I can do better" idea. However, too soon my spite-fueled motivation was replaced was a genuine desire to write a good story, a story that did justice for a cast aside villain.
Thus this story was cancelled because I decided to rewrite a more extensive and higher quality story. No more editing at 2 am, no more writing from sheer whimsy. I am putting the effort this story deserves to give Equestria the villain it deserves.
This story will still be left up for the sake of posterity and because, for me, it is stepping stone and evidence of the progress I have made.
The stories is redone and continued in: The Student of Sun and Shadow
