Here, you can read the finished Black Feather chapters.

Also, now that the comic is finished, I wish to extend a warm welcome to all the fans of the comic who are wanting to find answers to their many questions and also find out how things turn out after that rather intense sequence of events you just witnessed. Everything will be answered in the links below.

The entire comic, from start to finish, was a visual portrayal of chapter one: Catalyst. Chapter two picks up where the comic ends, but I still encourage you to read Catalyst anyway to get the full details of what you saw in the comic.

Short Description:
A young mare must discover the secret of her own nature in order to stop the destruction of ponykind while an ancient adversary with a vendetta intends to reclaim his former glory.

Long Description:
She was once the harbinger of nightmares, the bringer of eternal night. It has now been fifteen years since the failed plan to bring back Nightmare Moon and overthrow the royal sisters. Fifteen years since Equestria gained a new ally.

Now, with Equestria struggling through a prolonged war with the zebras, the mare who was once known as Nightmare Moon must walk the delicate balance between protecting the ponies she loves and losing her hard-fought identity.

Faced with a mysterious and brutal threat to Equestria, how will Nyx stand against a powerful new adversary who knows her better than she knows herself? What fate awaits her behind the dark secrets of an alicorn's true nature?

Many thanks to Pen Stroke for creating such an amazing character and backstory for Nyx! You've inspired me more than you could possibly know.
