In an attempt to recapture a sense of belonging, Prince Lune hires a new assistant. One he, and the other Equestrian alicorns, all may be infatuated with.
All of it points towards everypony hating one particular character, even more than they hated Solaris at first. This makes me curious about my abilities to redirect reader-hate to other sources. I'll use these observations in later fics, but for now I am glad that I could register your comment in a database of reactions. Thank you for your donation, and we will be sure to use your emotions garnered from this fic to improve those in the future.
Another fantastic chapter my friend, well done. I'm actually rather happy you didn't show the whole fighting scene between Lune and Solaris, even though you very easily could have, though you'd think Felt would've at least heard it and woke up for a moment before passing back out
Quite the interesting little bit with the knife, especially with the lore you came up with for it. I'm wondering if it'll make another appearance or if it's just going to be a constant reminder of what could happen.
And good on Dusk for sticking up for poor Felt. I can't help but feel that she's gonna get what's coming to her at some point in the future, but perhaps not.
This took me too long to read. Curse you 24 hour time limit!! I've read some of the comments... Besides the knife and Sunset everything is following premade assumptions. Who here didn't know Magpie would react like that? Hate her? Felt has two people that love him, Magpie is a lonely bat pony soldier. Whose the real looser?
Thank you for reminding me of that knife!! It's a crucial point in on of my fics. I saw it in a T.V. show and had the idea, then forgot.
Still brownie points for Dusk. Standing up for felt like that. I wonder though? Did he do that for felt or the princess? I just don't know if Dusk considers him a friend or just a servant.
I was going to bring up the laughable way that Solaris rationalizes Felt's punishment, so thank cripes for Sunset bringing in the Tyrant knife - I really didn't want to believe you were growing soft
We discussed this and you know what's coming. Let's just hope nopony is as queasy as you, because I have the new fic in front of me right now and... it strikes even I as something best left unpublished. But people should remember that this was the fic they chose, and I am merely the humble servant who serves my audience.
3682304 Do not confuse queasy with preference. Me and blood is the only thing that gets me. I thought I made that clear? I will decide if it's too much or not. Personally I think you won't get that much of a reaction from me.
Just reminding you that this is the path you, along with your fellow readers, chose. For better or worse, and with all the darkness set aside, your hand was on the button voting for that fic along with everypony else. Whatever blood I dip my quill in and write with is that which you set before me. I must make that abundantly clear before posting the first chapter tomorrow.
I simply need to give people time to think about the fic they voted for, that's all. See most simply say `Oh, this fic idea tickles my fancy.` and never think they may just be in over their heads. Thus in the case that one of my most beloved readers is overwhelmed by the new fic and posts a long hate message, I can only say I did my best to warn them...
3682394 Cole make a rash decision? That sounds nothing like her. (Sarcasm) Honestly I think she would give you a long tirade if she ever thought you held back. I wouldn't worry much though. She has almost the same mentality as me, minus the bad luck, I think she'll be thrilled to read it.
Well mate, the story is right here On my laptop, which sits on an oaken desk, plugged into an extension cord that leads downstairs and out of my attic. There is nothing else in this room with me but a server tower and a myriad of other computer miscellany scattered about on this stormy, miserable Christmas Day. I am presented with a choice; publish this mutant creature of a first chapter and pray the world takes to it, or put it down forever. All 9,679 words of it.
*Yawns* Tomorrow, though... it can be your late Hearth's Warming present. For now I must prepare my creation for the life it shall lead. I wish the good night, Cole & Man, and a merry Christmas.Thank you for all you help me with as a writer, and personally, as a friend.
You my friend are keeping me interested Dusk is great and caring Magpie is a total BITCH AND NEEDS TO DIE IN A HOLE WITH A CACTUS IN HER TWAT

well well well... we are back on track
great chapter with Sunset as the "crazy ex" type... Magpie as a bitch (there ain't another word for her)
was afraid you are slacking after the last one but you proved me wrong
loved the "list" of rules and how Solaris hated it, and the small fact he and Lune destroyed half of the castle fighting over Felt

Err... Personally I haven't done much. If Cole could speak, she's experimenting, thank you for that, I'm sure she would be grateful.
