It feels weird knowing you’re at the end of the universe.
Here we go talking about ponies again...
Cypress Zero was something that consumed me. I’ve spent extended periods writing stories, of course. But CZ was something that really stuck with me. I’ve always wanted to write a sci-fi story of my own world and characters, even before I had ponies in my life.
For those of you who have been waiting, please enjoy the ride. For those of you who have been reading along the way, I hope you enjoyed the journey as much as I did.
Story notes soon to follow. Thank you very much for reading.

I really hope to see you all there, and beyond that, the end.
Cypress Zero has arrived. The passion I have for this story cannot be understated: I’ve been working on this story for the last 11 months, and am very proud to present it in full. This story is complete! Updates will be coming on a regular weekly basis, with a couple chapters today just to kick things off. The story is over 112,000 words in length.
And why I haven't been around.
I'll keep it short: I've got a new job, long hours, and long days. Been excited to show this off, and it's pretty much at a standstill because of said personal issues. November 2022: After a promotion, I am now in a much better place. Expect Cypress Zero by 2023.
Anyways, onto the pony (kirin).
On January 11th, I started hammering away at this story:
