It took a long time for me to come up with ideas for this short story. I did research for a few months. I decided i wanted to write a story that was worthy of getting a reading by ObabScribbler and TheLostNarrator. I wanted to try to write a sad story, but it just isn't easy for me to do. When I wrote about Fluttershy dying in her nightmare, I intended to make that Fluttershy's death, but she's too innocent of a character. SO i had her actually awaken from her coma.
I was inspired to start writing again by listening to ObabScribbler and TheLostNarrator reading stories on YouTube. They are my two favorite readers and authors of My Little Pony fan fictions. So I dedicate this story to the two of them whether they see it or not.
