While its clear that hes been trained/altered and controlled seemingly against his will, will his own mental might help him recover, or will he fall to the darkness plaguing his mind and be the instrument of death they wanted him to be?
It will be interesting to find out
Y'know...I'm VERY disappointed in Celestia. It seems like, despite her skill with levitating a sword, that she has zero combat experience and very little magical training. When your magic fails to directly affect someone you grab something else with your magic and then affect your target with that! Rocks, water, swords, shards of crystal, there were probably dozens of potentially deadly projectiles near her and she didn't go for a single one. Anyone who's really played a magic user learns that it's not necessarily the power of an individual spell, but the manner in which you wield it.
My favorite example is a low level Mage in White Wolf's World of Darkness. Level 2 Life magic (able to affect living things no larger/more complex than a squirrel or so) and level 2 Correspondence (able to teleport small objects to areas within line of sight). Teleporting a small ball cactus into the crotch of an opponent's pants will stop most attackers cold.
Still, it's about what I expected to happen. Terico needed to do exactly what happened in this chapter. Now the question is this: how long will they be stuck down there together?
Hot dang! That was some gut wrenching scenes right there!
je curios how the trigger was not the word this time but seeing the princess getting hurt.
I think his rage fuse with his dedication to his duty…that or the place gave him a boast to finish off his opponent, because, this was even stronger than the last time, the other he beat the poor pony into a mess, this time he got extra force and the ability to literally cut throw flesh.
Also we now know why the caverns are now with red crystal a shame such a secret place that hold so happy memories and was meant to help other find peace now is a cemetery and its grounds now are tainted and forever mark on blood what its worse, Tercio and Celestia had lost a place where they could had find peace
Oh ho! The predator meet the far superior predator and lost, shame.
Tho I must say I like what you did with sun rump. This being a thousand years in the past she should be weaker, and you did just that, good show.
Aww hells yeah! New chapter and it's awesome!
more hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe
great chapter btw
God dammit you can't leave me waiting for more
I hope the next chapter won't take as long as this one did. Then again this was a superb chapter so no wonder it took a while!
If I ever hire a sellsword, I'm going to hire one with his tongue cut out. See what wasting your time talking does, gentlemen?
It's also a double-plus ungood situation if your sellsword has "arrogance" as a personality trait. The Faceless Men of A Song of Ice and Fire did not earn their reputation by chatting with their targets, and no good assassin worth their salt would try to brag about their kill to the target they are supposed to be killing.
Good chapter all around.
Ohhh Tercio went all tiger style on that nigga!

So, in my personal (and story) head-canon, Celestia's much younger age, combined with the lack of actual war in Equestria for her entire life, means she has had little reason to learn high-level magic and combat outside of some sword practice and basic magic abilities.
Plus, you know, if she could vaporize Lacertus with a single energy blast it wouldn't make for a very interesting fight.

I actually considered going with Lacertus being completely silent during his attack, but ultimately thought it would be more interesting if he was a bragging asshole who was hot shit, and he knew it. YMMV.
Also, I totally read your post in Sam's voice. Awesome.

Changelings?

My rebuttal would be to question how she managed to survive/defeat Discord without acquiring either some magical aptitude and/or magical caginess.
It's not that she should have wiped the floor with Lacertus, that would have been boring, but he would have seemed so much more badass if he'd shown he knew her tricks ahead of time or just had a wide enough arsenal/skill to counter them. As it is she seemed particularly helpless even for her relative youth.
P.S. An emergency escape tunnel that requires a lot of time and effort before it can be used?

When in doubt, MacGuffins. MacGuffin necklaces, MacGuffin rainbow boxes, MacGuffin heart stones! But really, when I made Celestia relatively weak in her "young" age, I did so for a reason. After all, if you start out super-powerful, there's nowhere to go from there. But if you start out weak there's room for improvement...
Also, regarding the escape tunnel: Tension! Drama! More fight scenes!
That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
Awesome chapter!

Ah, the classic "put they key in the secret dais escape route and the unlocking mechanism doesn't turn over" cliche. I understand completely.
HELL YEAH GO FOR THE THROAT. Made the right choice of course I would have gone for the throat and the heart.
Remember who you are. You are my son. And the one true king.

That ending to this chapter was fuckin' epic. Bastard got what he deserved.

Celestia's clearly been slacking and needs to go out and do some level grinding. Then when she gets to the final storyline boss, it'll be an anticlimax when it dies in a few hits.
Final Fantasy X was terrible for that, if you bothered to do any major sidequests.
This story just grabs the reader and does not let go.
Artfully written and an absolute blast to read!
Excellent work and some of the very best if not the best on this site and others like it.
Bravo!
I'm smiling like an idiot right now.
wow...
seriously... just... wow...
Go
Terco. I mean Tercio!those incestuos siblings and Celestia's flamming sword, great refference to Shakugan no Shana.
I FUCKING CALLED IT!
