Fuck yes, next update!
If that ending means what I think it means then it sounds like the princesses may have some explaining to do.
Meanwhile, still waiting for Honest Serenade to get her ass kicked. And maybe Raegdan beat up Commander Steadfast.
7067032 someone else has control over the moon... maybe that is the reason why luna and raegdan are so desperate. also luna is working quite hard to keep rarity thoughts away from finding some unwanted answers, and I have a feeling that raegdan girlfriend and the little one he was entrusted to care for are the same?
7067060 Possibly, and honestly I hope you're right about the first part at least, I would rather this not turn into another story where the princesses are lying about controlling the sun and moon.
so wait he is undead or what and btw. what is with luna not raising the moon.is the cause she does not have control over it or cause she dosnt want to give away there position
Super massive thumbs up.
I think I might know what Raegdan's beef with Honest Serenade is.
cdn.meme.am/instances/61359027.jpg
That last line.
Loved this chapter by the way. I'll be waiting for more.
Celestia is still raising the moon.
7067068 Maybe Celestia took over while she was out?
nice very nice
Oh, great. She's the head of that child slavery ring, isn't she?
Okay, here's what we have so far…
1.) Raegdan may be a Dark Souls type undead, or some other form of immortal
2.) He's going loco really quickly
3.) His memory has more holes than Swiss cheese
4.) Luna is either so good at raising the moon she can do it naturally, or Celestia's taking over during the training
5.) Honest Serenade may or may not be in charge of the child slavery ring
6.) Honest Serenade is a BITCH!
7067453 It's my hope that when she gets caught, it will be a wake-up call for Celestia.
Interesting, it would seem Luna isn't raising the Moon.
Although, maybe she isn't raising it because it might reveal their location?
Oh I so really hope everything will blow up at the same time. Just imagine the chaos.
Like Twilight realizing she was under a mind spell, while Honest Serenade starts really doing stuff.... while Raegdan goes nuts in the middle of Pinkie's party.
7068547 I'm thinking it was Luna, just the raising of the moon is so natural to her, she can do it while doing other stuff. And even Celestia only puts on that show for the masses' entertainment while Luna just doesn't care. But hey, you may never know.
I really really hope that the thestrals have just a bi of reverence for luna, cause really at this point it's just getting depressing to read the utter disrespect she gets from pretty much anyone, the main 6 included. also twilight is out of line in what she did to rainbow.
I am beginning to think this is secretly a Dark Souls crossover.
New plan. We kill Serenade. I think its an excellent idea on the grounds that it makes me happy.
At least with a longer life he can watch spike and twilight longer & stay with luna.
7068017 or luna and celestia don't raise the sun and moon

Immortality is pretty bad for the human mind. We spent a long time evolving and the general idea is that our life span is around and or below 100 years
I feel so sorry for Raegdan. It's horrific to imagine that you're biologically still a middle aged man, but have lived a few life times... I doubt he's old as the princesses but even a few decades beyond the general life span is bad. I'm surprised he hasn't went full on mentally insane EVEN with "family" support.
Gee, and to think I used to wish plenty of times to gain immortality. The upside in all of this is he's gonna be with Luna for a long time, if there is still even still a human soul left in that husk of a body of his.
Okay so Honest Serenade was behind the kidnapping and that's why she is so aggressive against Raegdan. The whole orphanage thing is just a change in tactics.
7070061
The thing about immortality is what was already stated before in that we cannot handle it mentally.
We age and through our age we grow and eventually die to make way for our knowledge to be passed down and grow in a new body and mind.
If we cannot die then our memories continue to build and our knowledge base expands much like downloading data to a hard drive but a extremely large one at that.
He's forgetting things as we can only use 10% of this hard drive space with the rest of the storage used for processing apparatus and instinct engagement.
Its his brain's only way to protect itself from the massive data backlog and its by compression of these files of things that do not relate to immediate survival.
7069559 Raegdan is going hollow.
Still damm those skills since he sidnt die once in the whole playthrough XD
I just realized something:Serenade was the one behind Philly Twilight's foal napping and the sex slave ring!
You know what the Solar Guard reminds me of? The Brotherhood from Fallout 4! Bunch of self-entitled assholes who practically (and in some cases, DO) worship something, and they all are holier-than-though pricks.
Hmm... I have my theories...
Of course, that's all they are. Theories. I don't know yet.
I do know that it is definitely possible Raegdan survived a Wyrm encounter. The scars match up, and the last chapter might not have been an AU after all.
I can't not think of raedagan as rindheart now from over watch.

Honestly with how the story seems to just pile shit on top of Raegdan I'm thinking she's one of the victims. Hates Raegdan for not saving her sooner and changing the orphanages to ensure it never happens to any other filly. Could explain why Raegdan won't just kill her as well, he thinks he failed her and is waiting for her to go too far before ending her so as to ease his conscience.
7079134
Not a bad idea but:
I think Blueblood is around the same age as the main 6 so that makes Honest Serenade too old. But maybe she was a victim before Raegdan showed up and angry because he wasn't there sooner.
But she strangely also felt like erectin a dispenser
7079134
I briefly considered that idea before I realized it wasn't possible.
Raegdan had just recently arrived in Equestria when twilight was a filly.
Celestia herself thought he was a wild animal of some kind until he saved Twilight, so clearly he hadn't been around in Equestria for the past +1,000 years, nor had any other species on the planet known of his presence (or she'd have heard about it).
As well, he was injured when he arrived, and his injuries hadn't healed before the attempted kidnapping of twilight.
And later on, the story says that it was Twilight's attempted kidnapping that lead him to looking into other missing foals, so that couldn't possibly have preceded his saving twilight.

7091854
Yeah the timeline means that she's would be a former victim possibly, or maybe one of the older victims children, presumably that operation had been going on for a decent amount of time, it could even have been a multi-generational cabal. So she could be mad at Raegdan for only turning up and stopping it all only after she lost her family/her youth/foals(?) to the organization.
Every one keeps assuming that the final part has negative connotations, and only a couple of us seem to realize something important that has been hinted at in her side stories. She hasn't raised the moon in a thousand years, who said she ever did raise it? The only one to ever have actually said as much is Celestia, and all the ponies just assumed due to who her sister was. Meanwhile, Shining Armor has a different theme to his sister, Twilight Sparkle, but both deal in magic; Twilight's being general while Shining's is defensive. What if the same arrangement is present between Luna and Celestia? With Luna handling the darker side of the night while her sister handles everything to do with high end, life supporting celestial movements?
I so want rip of Honest Serenade,s horn and ram it so far up her ass that her shit will be pushed so far in that evrytime she snezzes she will launsh a log out of her mouth. And I am not talking about the kind of log you get from a tree.
To (mis-)quote another popular fic: "Life sucks and then you die. I had been denied the latter. Now life just sucks, I guess"
Still though. This chapter and the interlude explains so much about Raegdan. It's all starting to make sense.
Also, I never seem to notice the obvious hints when lies, nefarious deeds and dastardly plans are afoot, at least until I read the comments. I'm either too gullible or my mind is too full of friendship to human properly.
Hmmm... I wonder if he has true immortality or if he is merry ageless. It would go a long way to explaining how he survived so many bear-death experiences when by all rights he should have died.
7552931
I'm going to go with ageless. I know some people that have survived some pretty questionable things when they didn't get proper help. I think that sometimes a person with sufficient will or spite can keep themselves around just a little bit better than others.
Goddamn it Twilight, don't do that to Rainbow you ass! This is gonna bite her in the ass... oh please let it happen
Nicely done man, nicely done
Honestly I hope rainbow dash punches twilight and rarity in the face. YOU DON'T FUCKING LOCK YOUR FRIENDS UP! NO MATTER WHAT THEY FUCKING DID!!!
She was stuck in their for 2 days right? And in the dark to boot.
Did she even have food or water? What if that guard had not found her? She could have died, SHE COULD HAVE DIED YOU FUCKING ASSHOLES!!! IT'S NOT FUNNY!!!
You don't do shit like That! If it was me I'd never speak to them again, i'd beat the shit out of them! I WOULD MAKE THEM FUCKING PAY!!!
If Raegdan's life is extended way further then normal it is understandable why his mind is breaking. The brain is only ment to last so long in our lifes, and that going past its experation date means that derogation is setting in causing his pycological disorders. All of Raegdan's traumas just add on to his issues.
That fucking mare... She is behind it all isn't it?
Imagen you are imortal and keep forgetting it...
10.000 years of prosperity. Than things run south and you run another 1.000 years in a dying world...
Actually legit stuff. When brain can’t comprehend something terrible, especially if you did it, it can forgot it, live in a reality we’re it never happend. I’ve seen it. Massive scary outburst, intense verbal assault, terrible things said, and then next week it’s like they forgot it ever happend. You try to mention it and they get confused and if you push it they start getting agitated
11162981
Reminds me of a doctor who episode
Character wrote an entire library of there experiences, reads them after they have forgotten, so many memories the brain gets rid of old to make space for new, as the life span exceeds brains memory capacity
11162964
I thought the same thing. I’m not sure she is but idk and anyway it does make me think
7560658
It is possible to lose the will to live and your body will stop working, I imagine the opposite is possible to a degree. Also reminds me of all the old sith hanging around as spirits in tombs and stuff out of spite hate and sheer will and desire for revenge, unfulfilled
