Secrets and Lies


I contribute to the abomination machine that is My Little Pony fan fiction.

T

This is the third installment to the Eternity Series:

β€’ Son of Eternity – Slave of Eternity – You Are Here β€’

NOTICE: Some chapter break and other images aren't working the way they should be. Here is the reason why. So sorry in advance.

The epic of Pinkie Pie and the Immortal Man who's fate is tied to Equestria's. His life will be filled with dangers, choices, secrets, love, and most importantly, beauty. As time flows, the world begins to understand the immortal, and the immortal begins to understand his true purpose in the universe.

The grand veil begins its descent. The pieces set long before time's birth have begun to move across the board of fate. The Ballad which brought forth the universe has reached its finale. Through time and space the ensuing sacrifice shall fight to establish the long forgotten aspirations of the ancients; and in the darkness the great nemesis has sown the seeds of everlasting and impervious evils. All of eternity anxiously watches, for no hope can be assured in the shadowed future of the dying universe.

––––––––––

As a side note: This story is based off of pre-season 4 knowledge when originally conceived. Any future information that may warp this story does not necessarily affect it on pre-season judgment.

Now that is powerful. :rainbowderp::rainbowderp:
I cant even arrange my thoughts accordingly due the thought-provoking nature that was this first chapter. I seriously can't even.:rainbowlaugh:
This is glorious. I really hope you can get your drive back. I don't want to see something this amazing perish before its time.
Keep the creative juices ever flowing.:pinkiesad2:

~Adjier

I will have fluttershy use the stare on you if you dont update:flutterrage: Really though I have connections:trixieshiftright:

4411148 He's got some stuff going on so be patient It'll happen soon.

I really hope they get to see eachother again :pinkiesad2: High hopes for the story in general and i know i wont be dissapointed if the first two parts in the trilogy are to go by! :moustache:

Oh Pinkie....:pinkiesad2: I bet you will see him soon enough.:pinkiehappy: It's a great thing I can't even feel depression, what Pinkie is feeling must suck.:pinkiesad2: I can only emulate so many emotions.

Great job Secrets, this is fantastic.
~Adjier

To be hiding a depression that long, it's easy, but sometimes. it's just too much to hold.
But hopefully she'll meet up with him again. I'm pretty sure it'll take most of it away. :twilightsmile:

Too cool.:ajsmug:

~Adjier

War is coming. Winter is coming!

So good....:fluttercry:
Twi... you tricky minx. :ajsmug: Although if you don't tell Pinkie I will kill you. She must see him you see. :twilightsmile:

This is too awesome. You are awesome Secrets.
~Adjier

The only problem is that not enough people have read this. Bravo.

OH MY GOD YOU MADE ANOTHER!!!!!!!!:pinkiegasp::pinkiegasp: YEEEEES!:heart::heart:

TIL Zack is Jesus. :rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:
Loving this. I can't say this enough.
I can't think of anything more to say.:ajsleepy:
~Adjier

Looking fine that!:rainbowlaugh::rainbowlaugh:

~Adjier

Startled me for a second.:rainbowderp: I thought I hadn't edited this yet. :rainbowlaugh: Then it came to me. :twilightsmile:

Still though, Pinkies reunion with Zack is a tear inducing. :raritycry: In a good way of course. :raritywink:

Excellent work Secrets. You are a descriptive genius.

~Adjier
P.S. Communication classes are going swimmingly; I'm getting better at my "Active" voice. :pinkiehappy:

I'm confused. I thought it was Zachary and Rainbow Dash together?
Probably forgot.
Anyways, good chapter! I've been waiting for Zach to get back.

Well, something sure is fishy with that DeBate guy...

Found you when this saga of yours was midway the 2nd book, finishing it as well. Feel kinda bad for just picking it up now, realising you are well into the third installment. Well, better late than never. I'm looking forward to reading the rest and catch up, and lastly, great story so far! \(^_^)

5555615

Thank you! :pinkiesmile:

I'm still in the beginning phase of the third part, so don't worry too much. More to come soon.

You son of a bitch, why you do dis to my feels?!

Hey man just wanna say great stuff :derpyderp1:

Great story, I've read them all multiple times. You should make a book. Or three :ajsmug:
Now, from the ego-stroking to the main question. Where is the next update? It's been a long time :pinkiesad2:

6431492

That's awesome, I'm glad you like my stories so much! I'm sure you know where every grammatical error is by now, :applejackconfused:

I've been planning on making it into a big book once everything is completed. I'm planning to design it in Adobe InDesign and have a PDF for it available as soon as I finish the series. I might also make a few physical copies and do some legit binding to make it look as professional as possible. 'Tis but a fantasy :ajsmug:

The next update is still coming, I just don't know when. If it brings any joy to you, I've started work on the next chapter, I just haven't finished it yet. It's rather boring if you ask me, I hate writing about politics, even if they're pony related. I'm also working on another special which will most likely be out sometime this year. It's been such a long while since the last update because of personal dilemmas and my life currently. Things are changing soon for me though, so I hope to get the ball rolling again.

Keep an eye out for what's to come! :rainbowhuh:

6432078 I actually didn't see too many errors. They were some of the first fics I ever read, so that's why I've read them multiple times. I would offer to be an editor, but you probably already have some, and school doesn't exactly like me spending time on anything else :ajbemused:

6436641

I would allow you to be an editor, but you would have to work through google docs since that is the medium I work in. A lot of the those chapters in the first book have been drastically altered from the google docs version, so I would need to revise them. PM if you'd like to work on it, no pressure though :derpytongue2:

Also, I'd add you to the editor list on the first chapter with a link to your profile, that's really all I can offer :twilightblush:

Zachary smiled and asked, β€œAnd what about old friends?”

Lord of the Rings or the Hobbit I forgot :)

10/10 Would vote for.

Chapter 11 summary:

DeBates: "The griffons are coming in, pony jobs are being taken, and it's Celestia's fault for not doing anything, but we can still stop them... We need to build a wall, and the griffons will pay for it!"

my god did you seriousley reference doctor who?;)

Soo... Is this cancelled or...
I mean, i've read the first two books and really want to see how this will span out. It hasnt been updated in a long while so im not holding out much hope but...

8343673
I'm still alive, so there's your hope :pinkiecrazy:

8347371
THATS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME!!

((Actually though, I really want to read to the end))

Its 2018 but I will still follow the story in hopes it updates :twilightsmile:

Well hot dayum. Happy to see this updated!

It lives! Almost forgot about this story

A UpdateπŸ˜€πŸ˜πŸ˜†πŸ”₯πŸ’₯

8347371
Secrets, mine friend, I still hold hope but one chapter every three years is little to hang on to.

Hope you're doing well,

:twilightsmile:

Thanks you kind sir :pinkiesmile:
Lots of change and not a lot a free time these days. Started writing fan fiction as a freshman in college, but now that I've been forced into the work world and live with my SO, not a lot of time to write about ponies. Haven't watched the show or frequent any mlp-related sites in a long time. I guess I sort of burnt out and I don't know how to continue Savior. The original ideas seem too streamline and confusing, and there's so much going on throughout Savior so far that I'm afraid I'm going to miss something. I regret a lot of what I wrote in Slave, even though I still think it's a solid story. Biggest regrets writing Slave have to be Zack X Rainbow Dash... should have been Luna. Others being Valiant losing his wing, giant death/plot ball that made no sense, not enough Moonsinger, pointless artifacts in the engima chamber, and such. I already regret some things in Savior, mainly creating DeBates and a lot of useless banter that goes nowhere.

But! The show must go on! Somewhere...

I started drafting a special chapter that takes place between Slave and Savior, something that could be viewed as a potential end to the series, but haven't decided on if I want to write that. I might just start forcing myself to write the next chapter. I pretty much know what it's going to be, and it'll tie up a lot of confusion between a certain character that's been shrouded in mystery since Son. So I haven't lost hope in myself, yet :ajsmug:

An idea could be to just cancel the story and continue as an alternative reality (or reimagining) based on Son of Eternity. It would be better than just being stuck.
I know this is LAAATE, but whatever. I hope this is helpful?

10173771
Good ideas overall! I actually came on here to cancel it and saw your comment, funny how things work out.

Anyways, it is now officially cancelled.

I've considered rebooting the original, but then I'd have to re-watch the first season so I can make accurate callbacks as well get myself back into mlp. The series is over so I would think the fandom is on its death bed at this point, and it would be a waste of my time to write something MLP related when I can move onto writing an actual story that's not a fanfic.

I've been wanting to transition a lot of the ideas, stories, and characters into an original story I've been working on since last year. I've been drawing up fictional world maps and sporadically writing about the world and its people in a journal I carry around almost everywhere now. I find it helps to have something physical to write your thoughts and ideas down.

I plan on making a blog post about it once I have more of structure laid out and some actually chapters written up. Then again, I've been off the radar for so long on this site that I doubt many people will see my blog post. Since this pandemic is happening I should devote more time to writing and I hope to start on something soon. There isn't much of a story yet, but it does involve a high-fantasy setting with magic that can't entirely be explained (like in Lord of the Rings). It's set in a world that is almost entirely forest and mountains with no major roads or bodies of water. I'll go into more details in a future blog post. In a way, I am retelling Son of Eternity into a new story with a new cast.

Anywho, I do miss the feedback and group of people that followed my writings and Zack's story. I even met IRL one of my first fans who pushed me into putting my stories on FimFic, and so I'm grateful I took the time to dedicate my writing to ponies.
:pinkiesmile:

Honestly didn't expect you to see that post, but I'm glad you did, and you agree! Cannot wait till I can read the... Not sure what it will be....

10181237
Better to read it six months late than never. Thanks for the update.

10181237
Don't worry, Secrets, mine friend, we're still here. I'll be patiently waiting for that blog post. I really hope that you manage to keep on writing, I know I've said it before, but I have been reading and re reading the Eternity series for years now, Zachary sort of feels like a close friend. It would be an honour to be able to the spititual successor of such an influential story from my life. As always, onwards and upwards!
