Home From the Hive. The title itself may be a slight spoiler, and more follow after the page break.

And there's barely any suggestive pony art at all.

Just some cringeworthy HiE. Also the longest review I've done in quite some time.

At Canterlot Palace, Shepherd is pacing back and forth and trying not to trip over his own cape.

Blueblood: "The entire Crystal Empire fleet is heading this way, Your Dreadfulness."

Shepherd: *groans* "Oh good! More pressure! I don't suppose we could just tell Shining this is all a wacky sitcom plot?"

Raven: "Alas my Dark Lord, he is unlikely to believe you."

Applejack: "To be fair, he does kinda hate yer guts anyway."

Among the other artifacts of humanity in the Everfree Dump was, of all things, the fully armed and operational turret of an Iowa-class battleship, all three 16 inch guns intact.

And Pinkie Pie got to it first.

Pony: "Oh thank Celestia you're here Miss Pie! The children are getting restless! They tried to eat Shepherd!"

Shepherd: "Back! Back!"

Pinkie: "Time for the big guns!"

Pinkie Pie pulls out a field radio.

The further writing pace may still be affected by RL problems, for which I apologize.

Shepherd was summoned to Princess Celestia's private office. He sat down across from her on a couch. She sat across from him with a smile.

Celestia: "Thank you for coming, Ser Shepherd."

Shepherd: "Not at all, Your Highness. What can I do for you?"

Celestia: "It's more something I'd like to do for you, Ser Shepherd."

Shepherd: "For me, Your Highness? What would that be?"

Celestia: smiles "There are concerns about you in Parliament."

So as to not clickbait people, it is as it says: I finished the edits to A New Day, A New World. It was a process that took far longer than expected, but it really sped up as of late. It was a fun way to remind myself of the characters, personalities, and plot threads; it was also a good timeline to see my improvement up until now, that's for sure.

*Andrew Shepherd was sitting with Princess Luna in Golden Oaks library, as they drank tea and sat in awkward silence*

Shepherd: "Uh... So..."

Luna: "... We understand if you still fear us, Shepherd."

Shepherd: "Fear? No, no, nothing like that. I will admit I'm... Wary, but I'm getting over it. After all, it wasn't your fault."

Luna: *sighs* "That is what everyone tells me. But it is difficult to separate yourself from the monster you became, after so long."

Shepherd was doing some financial stuff at his kitchen table, when the doorbell rang. He got up and walked up to it, and opened it. There was Pinkie Pie, with... Several gray ponies.

Pinkie: "Hi Shepherd! My family is in town, and they wanted to meet you! This is my dad Igneous Rock Pie, my mom Cloudy Quartz Pie, and my sisters Limestone and Marble Pie!"

She grins happily, while her family remains very stoic.

Prepare my friends, for a Man trapped in a world not his own, hounded by those who think him a monster for actions he took in his own defense.

Watch the shadows, for He Walks them on a path of blood and tears.

With that mildly disturbing intro out of the way, I would like to announce that I will be posting the first chapter of a new story within a day or two (it’s undergoing final editing) and that it will be a wild trip!

Pinkie: "Are you sure you're gonna be okay on your date with Shepherd?"

Dash: "Pfft, come on! I'm totally gonna be the best! It'll be the best date he's ever had, or ever will have! I've got it all planned out!"

Dash pulls up one of her action figures, and one of Shepherd's action figures.

Pinkie: "Ooh! That's the latest model with Kung Fu Chop action! ... Whatever that is!"

Shepherd is woken up by a pounding on his front door. He slowly gets up and staggers to the door. He scratched his chin, yawned, and opened the door.

Shepherd: "Yes?"

Diamond Tiara: "You! Human! Bless me!"

Shepherd: "I... Sorry?"

Diamond Tiara: "You're a human protector! You've brought great fortune to those stupid Apples! So you should bless me too!"

Shepherd: "That's... Not how it works, kid."

Diamond Tiara: "My daddy is very rich!"

I'll be on with getmeouttahere and MadMaxtheBlack, as well as all the usual tools from The Good HIE group. It'll be fun and silly, so feel free to come and ask questions. I'll update this post with a link around start time. Hope to see some of you fuckers there.

I figured I'd try writing a HiE. Not only that, but it's set in the RGRE universe! With Rarity!

[Adult story embed hidden]

If that's your thing, follow Zane as he tries to bang Rarity get a job! It doesn't take him too long to do both.

On a separate note, incomplete stories: I currently have two that people have expressed curiosity over.

Meanwhile, in the Crystal Empire...

Cadence: "Oh dear. You're telling me that Luna and Celestia have been overthrown?"

Sunburst: "That is indeed what has happened, Your Highness."

Cadence: "By Shepherd?!"

Sunburst: "Yes! We're also invited to his evil wedding to Fluttershy."

Cadence: "Wait, it actually says 'Evil Wedding'?" She examines the invitation "So it does. Ooh, I love the font!"

Sunburst: "Yes, it's very well done."

One human and a few ponies had thwarted Chrysalis' brilliant (In her mind) scheme to take over Equestria and get an everlasting source of love. It was infuriating that a weak creature with no magic at all could be instrumental in defeating her!

The Dark Emperor Shepherd was sitting on the throne, giving Applejack a very thorough and pleasing bellyrub, while Raven Quill ran him through his itinerary.

Raven: "And after the press interview, you will give your State of Equestria speech to Parliament."

Shepherd: "Wait, I have to make a speech?"

Raven: "Of course. The Princesses were meant to give the same speech, but since you are in power, you must do it."

While I am fighting off my continued illness, I am sustained by exellent stories. A British Gentleman (a soul of much repute) has proposed a contest to increase the number of rare stories on the site.

Link is here and he could use both entrants and judges.

The prize will be a story review and as you know, he des very very good reviews.

Okay so, I hate to do this but I have no choice. Due to the state I live in being Litterly on FIRE, I am gonna have to put Walking In Shadows on the back burner for a bit due to how close AI am to two of the more major fires currently raging.

Now before you all break out the Pitchforks and torches, I have two more completed chapters in the backlog and I will STILL be writing every chance I get!

This delay is only temporary, well at least I hope it is!
