Hello I'm thankful to come aboard. I'm a more private type. I spend a lot of time on my computer and barely leave home. I don't normally interact with people except on social media.

Sequels1

E

A creature that has never been seen before comes to Equestria from an island over seas and makes port after dark. Nopony has ever seen a creature like this until three fillies find him in an abandoned mansion.
Nothing is known about this creature, there is nothing about him in any of Princess Twilight's books for information on it. So there is no other choice, they have to get the information from the creature.

I like the premise of the story. Kahmey running from the windigoes and getting found by the CMC is a pretty good way to start the story. Your writing style however needs work:

... I got on the largest ship I could find, the Silent Mary had the most supplies so I got on board and sailed for a land that was green and not frozen by wendigo magic. I looked at the map and Equestria was the closest land I could plot the course to. I made port after dark so that I would not be seen by pony folk, I traveled for miles without resting. When I reached the forest just at the edge of your town, I found a shack that I could rest in. When the next night fell I decided to see if there was a better place I could rest in, like a barn with hay or something, so after twenty minutes of sneaking around I came across this place. ...

The paragrapgh this is from is a little large and may benefit from a bit more detail in more paragraphs. For example: Is he the only one left? Was the ship part of the village, and if so, it may be a bad idea to sail the largest ship alone.
Especially for online reading it is best to keep praragraphs small!
More important however: You begin with 'I' four sentences in a row and then begin with 'When' twice. Combined with your repetetive senternce structure (I did this, then this/ I did this, so this happened) the entire story reads more like a list. I recommend playing a bit with different sentences:

Equestria was closest, so i sailed there

This for example gets rid of the 'I' in the beginning and for a change doesn't have Kahmey as the acting part in both sentences.

In the forest i found a shack to rest in just at the edge of your town

This is another example How you could shake up your writing style. Notice how instead of main- and subclause it instead is one sentence with additional information?
Now i don't claim these examples are perfect or the way to go for your story, but your writing would really benefit from a bit of variation. :twilightsmile:
Hope i didn't come off too harsh, if so I'm sorry.

Thanks for the tip, I appreciate any possible help.
