That raises a question in my mind: in Equestria can if a pony crafts an entirely new spell can they patent it? (Fixed both, thank you!)
i mean no, he's not, he's the main character.
unless you pull a 'main character is dead for x number of chapters, then suddenly comes back as santa' or whatever.
8569426
"He's gone. He's gone." felt like it would be more natural for someone in shock to say because it's much simpler rather than "They took him. They took him." So you're correct he's not dead because the G.R.A. operatives' goal here was a snatch and grab utilizing several elements which have been discussed in previous chapters.
8569912
i mean if these elements have been discussed previously, i'm either a non-comprehensive reader or are very subtle in their placement.
either way, i look forward to the next chapter.

We'll see things from Titus' perspective in Ch. 16 which should clarify what went down. If I might suggest checking Ch. 13. Breakfast Date Party, the scene with Geirr and the Mistress contains clues about the munitions, spells, and plan for the op.
8570891
huh
i can safely say i don't even remember that happening.
8571909
One cannot deal in absolutes when it comes to Pinkie.
8572698
No worries, Krua's blade is safe! Discussed in Ch. 13 Breakfast Date Party it was a communications module Titus was going to install in the ship was what was stolen, as for who stole it I'm sure they'll be discovered and dealt with soon.
Just about to read this chapter but before I do. Gotta say that's a nice piece of cover art for the story ^^ Anyway time to read at the dead of night with several cups of tea.
And done. Nice chapter. Had me do a double take with the whole "dream" sequence good job :P Looking forward to the next chapter and a continuation to this darn cliffhanger.
I do find it funny they think they can snatch buddy boy away. I'm sure he doesn't have his weapons but he still has the force and martial art. Methinks they might have underestimated him a smidge. Or not wich would make for an interesting turn in the story.
And now that it is 4:30 in the night "EGAD" I will promptly go pass out... Have a good one
8576228
They very much have snatched him, the GRA's operation was successful. It was carefully planned, executed, and they're informed enough to have some means to keep his odd magics in check. I'm hoping this is an interesting turn, expect to see a whole lot more of Geirr!
8576811
Interesting. I still think they blundered pretty hard considering if Luna ever catches them they will have without a doubt a veeery bad day... Or week for that matter... Also how unlucky can one guy get. Not done healing over the last episode and already neck deep in guano xD
8577444
Luna will be a nightmare, that's for sure.
What a whirlwind of a chapter. On the subject of the flightsuit made for Lyra, Titus could possibly work around the issue of how the helmet is put on by having the helmet be designed similar appearancewise to the EVA Mjolnir Armor from the Halo franchise, with the helmet itself and the visor making up two separate pieces that need to be attached together: helmet first then the visor when putting it on, and have several plates slide in to better secure the visor.
On another note, how did the G.R.A. get privvy to the transformation spell developed by Luna and observed solely by the Diarchs, and a small collection of guards... unless the pony early on was one of the guards that the G.R.A. captured.
8578294
They intercepted a series of communique between Luna and an academy professor, as revealed in Ch. 13 by Geirr when he is talking to the Mistress.
Early stages of the spell for sure, but even with just a few minutes of examination Celestia was able to simplify the spell to be near instantaneous to cast and have it only affect her appearance . With the right details one could approach a knowledgeable traveling magician in need of coin to, say, cast something similar on an object that activates when it's put on.
G.R.A.? Like... the G.L.A. From C&C Generals? Egads!
And holy diiiiiicks this was massive... eh, I got through it, painful as it was.
And damn a lotta stuff happened, damn fine work!
:D
8604350
Hey, another familiar face!
The G.R.A. is actually a parallel of The Provisional Irish Republican Army, a paramilitary group that used terror tactics to fight local police and the later deployed British forces in an attempt to remove Northern Ireland from the UK to become its own nation. The G.R.A. has basically the same goal and employs similar strategies, as we've seen.
8604785
Hehehe, yep! I'm still reading! I would have commented way earlier, the length of it just made it a bit longer, hahaha xD But this was an interesting chapter!
And whoa, that's gonna be hardcore if they do act like the IRA, whew... what happened in this chapter is probably only the beginning of the mayhem.
8604950
We won't be seeing their usual fieldwork because Titus is going to be a bit tied up with being Geirr's "guest." I have, however, written the closing to this arc and there is a lot of firepower involved because even a Jedi has his limits
8605919
heheheh, that'll be interesting to see Heheh, good show and good luck writing the next chappie
8605919
well depends on the jedi, cause i mean luke in legends could do some insane things like take the combined force power of an entire species and brush it off like it was nothing, or yoda grabbing carrier ships and crashing them into each other, or some of the crazy stuff revan or galen could do. am just saying force users have some insane power levels. also are we going to see any less common force powers from titus. like maby force clone or force fire, tutemenus/force deflection, force weapon, force phase, force whirlwind or force combustion. or maby even some force lightning, cause suprisingly force lighting can also be weilded by light side users, luke used it and master plo koon made a varient called force judgement, also both galen and revan could use force lightning even when they turned to the light. so that powers kinda a grey power.
also dident know he was from Alderaanian will he feel his planet die.
8609567
By limits I meant more his patience. Not to say he won't use some Force powers he has yet to show off, but the Force isn't the only thing at his disposal and the G.R.A. did some research. As for Alderaan? Well, although he left shortly after Order 66 was carried out he was stuck in the portal for roughly 10 years...
We will see, perhaps he won't be the only one to feel it.
8610699
no a ten year time jump should put him around a new hope. i mean alderan was destroyed 19 years after order 66 so depending on how long he was running from the empire, everything should line up.
8610863
Funny how that's lining up, isn't it?
8611752
yes yes it is, its almost like your going to have that be a major plot point later on. hey question is it possible to find kyber crystals in the crystal empire cause that could be very interesting.
8611752
also second question are we going to see titus use force lightning in any way. i mean since hes a pretty strong willed guy and has opened up more to his passionate side, two charateristics that can help conjure the ability. i mean in any regard like in normal force lightning or plo koon lightning judgement. yeah force lightning a weird power that both sides can potenaly use but it tended to be seen as dark because of its destructive nature. but yeah there actualy have been quite a few light side users who can and have used force lightning. to me i think kyle katarn explains it best "Remember: abilities are not inherently good or evil, it's how you use them"
fun fact there actauly is one example of force lightning being used to heal people, weird right.
A new year comes and it is time to reread my possibly most favorite story. See if I pick up things that I missed "wich I obviously did." Hope you all had a good new year.
Also I really should stop my habit of reading at... "Checks the time." 4 in the morning... Yeesh.
8651818
Happy New Year! <3
Your reading schedule is no more messed up than my writing habits, on several occasions I've stayed up well into the morning or woken up for 30 minutes to jot things down before crashing again.

Birds of a feather it seems. A story written by a sleep deprived author only to be read by a sleep deprived reader? What has the world come to There is something nice and tranquil about being able to read at night without being disturbed though. Enhanced even more so with the fact I live in the countryside in scandinavia. F all goes on out here. Like the most "amazing" thing that'll happend 'round these parts is a bat squeeking overhead if I stand outside in the middle of the night.
Granted bats are adorable and cool so it's a big deal to me damnit. I want them
8653828
Oh that sounds serene. Living in the countryside away from other people is my goal.
And bats are awesome, I built and put a small bat house up in a nearby tree. Funny story about bats; I built that bat house after one found its way into our apartment building's shared hallways (it was winter, so it probably was enjoying the heat). An old lady had been scared by it and chased it from the community/mail room down a hallway with a broom and was going to kill it but I took off my sweater, corralled it into a corner, and wrapped it up before she could. I had an empty terrarium to keep it in until the freak out lady and the entourage her screams had brought out calmed down, then the following morning I let it go.

Don't know why but those links doesn't work for me. I can assume it was bat pictures. I hope it was. And yeah I get sad when I see people chase bats around trying to litterally maim them... I really don't get it since they are harmless. Hell even vampire bats goes on smaller animals. I kind of hope one day to feed like a strawberry to a bat by hand. I would seriously be fine being run over by 60 trains the following day xD They are litterally little dogs with wings.
Living in the countryside can be nice but you have to realize. No real infrastructure here :P The best internet we can get is 5mb down and 1mb up. Couple that with no bus routes or trains out here so you have to rely on neighbors to get around or walk at the very least 3 km's just to wait an hour or 2 for a bus x3 Going to a big city is a full day event here with loads of travel. Despite that it's nice to be able to litterally go out at any time of the day and scream if you so wish. No one will ask questions xD Helps when there's a big farm not long away that's abandoned wich makes a killer tripple echo if you do a sharp whistle.
8655922
Apologies, I uploaded to the wrong folder so links should be fixed.
Having lived in apartments my whole life I crave a living situation where I don't have to listen to every fight, have to hear the thumping of kids running around upstairs, or put on a fake smile and try to avoid nosy questions when I just want to get back home from a night of work. I want to look out a window not be able to see or hear my neighbors. I already have an old tank of a truck so transportation isn't an issue and I'm saving to buy 10 acres or more of woods to nestle a small house way back from the road on, raise some animals, hunt if I want to, and just generally avoid people and be left alone. Thankfully there's properties like that still within nice suburb areas so utilities wouldn't be an issue and despite what realtors are telling everyone (so they can continue to write subprime mortgages) the housing market is building up to another pop like in 2008 so prices will literally hit rock bottom.
8656307
Well the best of luck to you on that front :o I would love to live in a woodland area though x3 beats the 4 fields im flanked with. Let me tell ya waking up at 2 in the night to 3-4 combiner harvesters or beet harvesters trucking outside your window is less then pleasurable x3 Sadly no real law exists to forbid that :c Also saw the pictures now. I want to pet :c! Lucky git :P Also with all the rain lately our back yard has become more of natures slip'n'slide what with all the mud. I damn near got stuck one time letting my dog out "who of course decided to roll around in the mud what with her pristine white and gray fur <- husky" Granted gotta take that with a chuckle and just live with it x3

Exactly, why delve into researching the applications of electricity when a unicorn can accomplish the same task or goal with a spell that likely has been around for a good chunk of time or could be modified to meet the requirement in much less time and at significantly less of a cost?
Thanks for your comment, I love getting the chance to talk about this out-of-story world building stuff. In my story such research, like that of electricity, would be conducted by either 1) the Canterlot Academy which gets funding by appealing to the Princesses Court or 2) through a privately funded R&D company of which there are several of varying sizes. Again though, why would the Academy Board or a Board of Investors/Owner waste funds doing unprofitable research when the alternative is already established and available?
If you've read farther into the story now and if you kept your eyes out you might have caught how Luna gets Titus a video game machine, however he is unable to use it because he's hesitant to try and splice the magic "tech" in with his on his own. It does work as is evident both throughout the story after that when it is mentioned Titus and Luna play Vanguards of the Oubliette together (effectively an online MMO) and then again during Luna's visit to the ship where Titus is able to plug the controllers into any screen aboard and play remote from the console. Twilight would have been the one to do this because of her familiarity with magic and because of her extensive study of any of the technology made available to her so fusing the two , though it takes an unknown amount of modification, is possible. What that means for the story, we shall see...
When are you going to finish the story up

Chapter 16 is in the works!
8720073
You can thank Futurama (and The Honeymooners) for this one.
8960559
Oops!
Writing on the phone due to the PC finally kicking the bucket and I must have bumped Publish in trying to hit the Edit button right next to it (dumb design, imo). So, not done yet! More to come with this chapter, I've got to finish this flashback with Nightwatch, jump back to present-ish for a bit with her sister, and then wrap up any other thoughts that might come along the way. Hope you enjoyed the sneak peek, at any rate!
9076002
Eh, I don't worry too much about likes and dislikes because you can't have one without the other when you post something online. My best guess was someone didn't like that I was playing into the whole "First" thing of comment sections *Twilight shrug*
I don't comment much but had to say how much I've enjoyed this story. Keep up the good work and pleeease continue.

Thanks! I've got no plans of stopping 'till the story is finished!
I honestly hate how often people gloss over the fact of just how much of a curse immortality actually is. In the beginning both Titus and Twi are mortal. But now with Twi being forcibly turned into an alicorn without her consent, she is now immortal, while the ones she loves remain mortal, subject to the flow of time. She will remain unchanging, untouched, while everyone she knows and loves, minus the few immortals that exist, will wither and die, including Titus. She will be forced to watch him grow old and die, while she remains the same. And given she will never die of old age, she will never join him in the afterlife.
It irks me that so few people actually go into detail, that so many think that immortality/extremely extended life is some kind of gift, which couldn't be farther from the truth.
