Twilight Sparkle, archmage, local Princess and part time friendship tutor, finds a book about a long lost school of magic on her doorstep.
It just so happens that the actual act of necromancy is more difficult than your average spell. Follow Twilight as she attempts to find virgins to sacrifice, carve pentagrams into her floor and generally do evil necromancy things.
All in the pursuit of knowledge, of course.

Well, certainly not where I expected that to go, but it has my approval 100%.

Yeah, I originally wanted it going horribly, horribly wrong, but that'd be too...
Predictable? Honestly, as soon as I thought about summoning Grogar and then realizing that he's not technically dead, I had to think of a different direction to go in. Glad to see it worked out in the end!
What? Eh, I like.
It's good to see that writing about necromancy is back in fashion, in my experience it comes and goes regularly.
Well, that was completely damned ridiculous.
...I approve.
After reading a great fix that ad-hock'd it's twist today I'd say this fix was pretty great, twilight not knowing literally everything is always funny
If she just sends Grogar back, why have Twilight summon him in the first place? What exactly did Starlight get from this?
7388558 He wasn't sent back by Twilight, Grogar just sank back into the circle to his imprisonment. Twilight learned that demon summoning was illegal and Starlight got an opportunity to teach Twilight about something.
All in all, stuff happened, the end.
Starlight; Hey Twilight it's your cousin, let's go bowling.
cool
Dammit. Ever since I got into Undertale, this phrase has been irrevocably altered in my mind, and it automatically makes me expect certain things even if they nothing to do with the story. Love the game, but still...
Anyway, I was expecting Discord to have written the book as a prank right up until she summoned the demonic goat and Starlight waltzed in. So, kudos to you for a genuine twist and being pretty damn funny while also explaining Starlight's rather impressive accomplishments.
While I don't mind Starlight being able to do the things she did naturally, this was an amusing take on things.

Rather, people won't let it lie and keep bringing it back.
(That's supposed to be a necromancy joke.)
This is brilliant. Now I am wondering if I should write these....
The Dumbshits Guide to God Trolling
Dungineering for Assholes: The Complete Sadistic Overlord Edition
The Illustrated Guide to Magnificent Bastardry
Lol, I see what you did there.
"The Self-Sustaining Fusing Cosmological Body In Shades of Canary", right?
Anyway, why would necromancy be legal and not demon-summoning?
The last demon summoned to Equestria was loads of fun!

Fun fact: Discord used to be called the Jersey Devil before the Fausticorn summoned him to troll ponies for the lulz.

Right down to the yellow eyes with red irises...

She did a hack job on the summoning... (used MIXED olive and grape seed oil! Ugh!) and Discord ended up kinda discombobulated afterward.
And this proves the old claim by long-time Jersian and 101.5 radio host Jim Gearhart that everything weird in the world has direct ties to New Jersey!

I was excited to see a new Rainbow Dash Presents, okay?
You really need a Random tag on this. With it, it's an enjoyably nonsensical romp with a disturbingly believable origin for Starlight's ridiculously overpowered abilities. Without it, coming into it with serious expectations? Yeah, not so much.
7433795 You know what? I think this deserves it.
And when I say fun, I mean a bitch.
Thanks regardless.
This was a short enjoyable fic and made me chuckle. I did enjoy Twilight searching for a virgin.
I just got Necro-Blocked...
Hi,
You've been Rage Reviewed! Follow the link below for the review.
http://www.fimfiction.net/group/201778/rage-reviews/thread/299506/rage-review-necromancy-and-you-an-idiots-guide-by-hclegend
two things come to mind:
-a story on this site, "the reformation of the hives", where a changeling queen even nastier than Chrysalis captures Grogar and tries to steal his magic, to create acid-spitting zombie changelings...
a short story called "battlemagik for morons" in a book called "battle magic".

Heh, Rainbow Dash Presents: Bittersweet reference. Is it sad that I know the exact episode of Rainbow Dash Presents that that's from?
And its one of these. Let the in-story riffing begin!
But the building here a hundred years ago that was also built on an ancient buffalo burial ground did. oooooooohhhh! Necromancy!
...why is this here? We know that. This is probably an intentional part of how the story is written, but it just seems...off, even so.
Y'know, being banished really gives you alot of time to write.
Yay vocabumalary!
The writing wasn't doing much for me up until this point. Now, I know I"m gonna love this.
...I have nothing. Not because this is just funny, which it is, but because i laughed so hard my brain no longer has enough oxygen to do anything other than type surface pancakes. Er, thoughts.
Which, fortunately, was next to the soup store; she wouldn't be talking to Rarity for awhile, but still needed new clothes.
This makes way too much sense, and I now want a show starring the proteges of every ancient good/evil in the show.
8207298 I'm glad you enjoyed it enough to riff it, my dude.
This is why you check what you're using before doing stuff like this.
Coffee rockets out of my mouth at over eight thousand miles per hour.
Star in Yellow...?
SNERK
Holy wow that was hilarious. Good job!
The yuks abound. Lol. Nice one shot! Especially enjoyed Starlights entrance.
For some reason I read Starlight's dialog in my head as a mix of her normal voice and the voice of Daria.
Thank you for the snrks. I'll see you on Discord.
