This is a revision of Fallout Equestria: Tales of Transylvania. From now on, this will be the main story being updated.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stories are passed down generation after generation. Over time the tales become mixed and confused, history gets intertwined with legend. As the years go by, even prophecies, warnings of things to come, are melded into simple marestales spoken to young ones at night. Details may be forgotten - however, the weight of which they warn is not.

Stable 17 was built within the region of Transylvania in northwestern equestria, safely situated between the base of Smokey Mountain and Vanhoover. The primary focus of the stable was to protect the native Thestral ponies who resided in the area in the event of a catastrophic war. These ponies -- commonly known as "Batponies" by the other races of Equestria -- sported fangs and leathery wings.
Transylvania, with its economy driven mainly by the farming of it's residents, saw little to no action in the war, and was blissfully left out of the rain of balefire bombs that consumed Equestria.

Midnight, at least that's what they call me. I grew up within the confines of Stable 17 where I was certain I would live peacefully, and die peacefully. I was to be yet another participant in the endless cycle that made up life in Stable 17, call it boring, but it was home.
When the current Overmare began a crazy attempt to keep her power, I was forced out of the stable, finding myself stuck out in the open world of the Equestrian wasteland. With no supplies, friends, or knowledge of the wasteland before me, I found myself facing a life that was sure to end quickly. As if that wasn't enough, another pony was kicked out with me; none other than Scarlet Rose, the Overmare's own sister.
Soon after leaving the Stable, I learned of a land far from Equestria, perhaps not even of this same world. A mystical being by the name of Ignis revealed himself to me and informed me of my destiny. Cliche, am I right? Well, as soon as that all began, I learned of something sinister lurking between worlds, something that only I could prevent.
Night by night, secrets tucked away within the forested overgrowth of Transylvania's lands began to become ever present, every step that Scarlet and I took seemed to wake dormant beings. Ancient legends - regarded as simple tales - quickly became a reality. Scarlet and I not only had to overcome our differences, but together we were tasked to protect the sovereignty of Transylvania, the very existence of our dying Thestral race.

And so, once again, it begins, with the premise beginning with the similar, yet different, consequences of sealing a group of people in an isolated limited underground space for as long as it could.
As one of your most loyal followers, I say I'm glad you didn't remove the old story, as while you might think it went to complete crap, it still a good read to pass the time. I look forward to reading your rewrite and the differences that come with it.
7353332 Thanks so much! Honestly I like the old one too, I just didn't like where it was going XD
So... The Overpony went all like...

Poor Vault residents, they got a power hungry leader... Well, they were mostly always power hungry or mentally impaired in Fallout lol.
Your book has been advertised on the new foe facebook group page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/foebooks/ :)
7375939 Hey thanks!
Maybe Transylvania wasn't the best name it just doesn't fit with MLP. Maybe Trotsylvania? Just throwing out the idea. Ignore me if deemed necessary.
Did you check the List of Stables before you wrote this? Stable 17 is taken and has been for some time
7377067 Hmm that's interesting, I wasn't aware. Regardless, this is a work of fiction, and with the thousands of other FoE side stories out there, it would be entirely impossible for me to coordinate my story along side every possible outcome. This story is presented in an alternate universe to the other side fictions, a pathetic excuse, but unfortunately all I have to work with.
So to keep things simple, this story is written ONLY in the universe of the original FoE, no other side fictions are present or overlapping.
It's a GHOST WOLF!
Just kidding, nice chapter, full of intensity with the skirmish between Midnight and Night Shade (hah, night shade, that's a pokemon move!)
That's... That's bad luck. First thing you run into is slavers when exiting the Vault. They must not have high luck stat.
Is it me, or did Midnight seem a bit blasé in his conversation with Ignis?
7392056 That was intentional, you'll come to find that Midnight's character is rather nonchalant and almost on the threshold of breaking the fourth wall at times. I like to use him as a foil to the serious nature of the story, though of course there will be times where he takes things seriously/ react accordingly.
Never figured out why bottle caps of all things became currency for everybody...
7424233 Pre shaped metal that is more common than bits or bills, and can be counted to always have a certain shape, thickness, and specific molding styles based on the source, versus a shiny piece of round metal with denominations printed on it. Never mind how its easy to obtain and it's more sturdy than bills.
will this ever update? or is it dead.
