I could read you whole story, but i will not. Because that is 443k words. That is more words than the first two season for the show. you sir have scared me off with your monumental story.
"where were you a thousand years ago?"
hmmm, if I were to hazard a guess, i would say having fun with chocolate rain.
i dub the ring: "The Ring O' Physics"!
1311191 some stay dry while others feel the pain
1311162
Size isn't everything, lad. Some things in life are just worth it. Why would you deny yourself something if it's good, even if it's hard to take?
1311167
I bet you'll never guess what the missing item(s) was/were, and who looked into the mirror.
1311204
Essentially, yes. He can't fly while wearing it, and neither could Celestia or Luna. It's a pretty useful little tool, but it's also restricting. No good magic as well as no bad magic.
1311231wad it forged in the fires of mt.Doom?
1311332
No. I could go on a long tangent about how and why it was made, but it's easier to just say that it was Discord and call it a day.
1311231 So what you saying is that i should have sex with a fat lady, even if i dont want to because il get laid.
1311366
I would politely ask you to rephrase what you said, because I have no idea what you're trying to say.
1311379
If she isn't diseased and you have a rubber and you both want to get laid, why wouldn't you? Hit it once and ride the waves, man. If it's a good story, give yourself plenty of time and just read it. It'll take a while, but if it's worth it what's a little time?
Two chapters in a day?! What is this black magic!?
Still hopin' on a OP tone down...
1311406
Again, Discord is supposed to be overpowered. He has been alive since almost the beginning of sentient life. His power waxes and wanes with the amount of discord in the world, and there's plenty of discord going on that we aren't privy to and might never become privy to. Celestia shot herself in the foot when she created Tartarus. Sure, all the evil things are trapped away from ponies, but Discord can still feed off their hate.
Just look at the Discord in the show. He easily beat the main six and Celestia. The only reason he lost is because he underestimated his foes, which is the same reason Nightmare Moon and Chrysalis lost. If Discord had not been so overconfident, he would have won hands down. He is terribly overpowered. I'm just taking a realistic approach to him. I did the same thing with Chrysalis and if my story had involved Nightmare Moon I probably would have done the same thing there. In real life, most villains wouldn't be stupid enough to do what the villains in the show did. Nightmare Moon would have killed the Element bearers, Discord wouldn't have given the Elements back at all, and Chrysalis would have killed Shining Armor.
I'm sorry that you think he's OP, but be happy that the story doesn't really have much to do with Discord. It's all just a build up for the end, really.
Luna hates the ponies that saved her from her Nightmare form and helped her find friends? That's a little sad.
If magic doesn't work against him a unicorn can always throw a big rock at him or maybe a net if they want to catch him. But they are probably not that creative.
Surprised he didn't see them manipulating him sooner. It was a little obvious. Red flags just flying up when they knighted him.
1311587
He knew they were manipulating him, but he didn't know to what extent they were doing it. And he didn't know Luna was that in on it; he thought it was all Celestia. Three more updates until we learn the Truth.
1311619
By the way what would he have seen if he looked into the mirror?
1310839
Personally being the human loving human I am... I would hope Nav gets his hands on some beast human technology and rises to god hood himself without Discord, but we both know that's not going to happen, not with the direction this story is headed in. But you're right I suppose I am happy that Discord plays less then a minor role in this whole grand scheme one might call a play.
Once again Bravo
1311622
Let me put it this way: The last person that looked in that mirror was Luna. Look at what happened with that.
1311664
Yeah. I knew focusing too much on Discord would get boring. He has a few interesting cuts, but the main focus stays on Navarone, as it probably should.
1311680
I assume that you were trying to say that you figured it all out already, but just because you think you have doesn't mean that you have. You could also mean that you googled the link to my story, found my pastebin, and downloaded everything I already have up to chapter fifty-four and read all the other stories I've written, but that would just be silly. Especially since I just googled it and failed to find my pastebin. Somehow I did find the download links, though. I'm sure you'd much rather wait and read it as I release it, though...
Shouldn't nav be able to fly (using the ring) since his wings are so large to compensate that his human body can't use any magic at all?(opposed to a pony's wings that push the magic around it, not the air, I think) sure the ring could block him sitting on clouds but that's different.
1311818
No, a for a human to be able to fly, the wings would have to be a lot larger than four feet long. I don't think it would even be possible. He could probably glide, but he couldn't get into the air in the first place unless he jumped off something high. It isn't that he's using magic, it's that all the ponies around him are. They assume that since he has wings, he can fly. Thus, he can fly. That's how magic in this world works. As I pointed out last night, there's a difference between magic and spells. We will learn more about the details of that later in the story, but essentially the only reason anyone can fly is because they think they can. That is part of the reason friendship is magic; friends believe the best of each other, so they become better for having friends.
1311816
That's silly. You're silly.
1311757
I imagine if he did look he would see a puppet version of himself with long, long bloody strings attached to him rising up to an unseen puppet master.
1311818The muscle weight it would take to be able to use the wings properly would make flying impossible.
1311867
There would be several sets of strings, some longer than the others. A lot of people want things from Nav and a lot of people hold strings on him in one way or another. Discord, Celestia, Luna, Chrysalis, and several others. In the coming chapters he'll gain a new friend of sorts that will do him good, but even that friend will have a few designs for him.
1311857 well that sure is mind f**kery, damn. But its not like its hard to pull a ring off right? (unless its cursed) P.S. I'm glad he has defence against magic now, ponies were always trapping him, *Cough* Cadence. *Cough*, and it's more fun to watch his attempts at freedom.
1312004
Yeah, it's easy enough to pull off. What's more difficult is to make sure he doesn't lose it and to make sure he remembers to put it on.
Cadance, at least, never hurt him. The princess of love wouldn't do that. However, you'd be surprised at what she wouldn't consider hurting him. *cough*chapter fifty-two*cough*
This story continues to please me, therefore you get to continue to live a pleasent life to write this story....and also I bet that the ring was made in the fires of Mount Doom and the missing items are something awesome...still was awesome when he turned Warhammer 40K and just steamrolled through everything.
1312107
I had to give him at least one moment of awesomeness. I also had to show off to Luna what an insane sociopath he's become. It comes back to haunt him later.
1311857
Da Ork Magiks?! (WH40K) Red wuns go fasta.
If one could push that, anything can happen.. oh.. wait...
Pinky Pie is a GOD, by this definition.
Good chapter btw.
With the ring he has limited protection from magic and would most likely affect his life enhancements. And the " magic in the air" thing being literal I am guessing it means that the world works in the "you think it, it happens sense" to a limited extent. Personally, I would have taken the ring, the suit, and the bag. He could escape all of the world in some unknown island or something and just live in peace for years without anyone knowing of his existence. Yes, there is a problem with the daughter and wearing a suit for who knows how long may not sound very appealing. He can live in solitude if he chooses so friends may not be on the high list of necessities. The bag, come on! Infinite ammo anybody? All the swag you want, assuming that there is no weight gain. The key, the obvious reasons of it's value were already stated. But then again, he would probably never get those back from Celestia. Why did he had to open his mouth? I bet anyone else would have lied through their teeth. I know I would. The stones, you don't need to be smart to see where the hell this is going to lead to. The voice, some ancient being or presence that has witnessed much and is thousands of years old. The plot thickens with more questions and possibilities. And not that kind of plot!
Amazing chapter as always.
1312224
I didn't even think about infinite ammo. And Navarone didn't think about that when he picked the stones. As it turns out, he was an idiot. The reason he told them about his stuff is because he knew they would find out eventually anyway and when they did they would be pissed.
1312215
Yes, Pinkie is the only pony that actively uses magic even though she doesn't know what she's doing.
1312266
Hiding certain things is not hard for most people, however I do acknowledge that Nav's situation is unique and he cant hide much. Regardless, of his one poor choice in gifts the stones were not the best of things to take. The portrait had sentimental value, which he did not need to be weakened by. Will the voice have a reappearance in later chapters? And how can Celestia feel bad about him not trusting them when she is manipulating him? Hypocrisy seems to be one of her more defined characteristics. Will there be more ruins with possible hints for Nav of human presence in the past?
1312312
Every time he picked something, some of the choices were removed. By the time he was on his last item, his only choices were the mask, the pen, and the stones. The mask was dangerous if it fell into the wrong hands, as was the pen. The stones were the best choice, even if they weren't a good choice.
The portrait was a way home. Like, if he had picked it, that would have been it for him in Ponyland. There's a reason he didn't take it.
The voice was Discord. So yes, he will make an appearance later.
Celestia's kind of a bitch, if you haven't noticed yet. She dearly wants to be Navarone's friend, but at the same time she knows that he's really, really useful. She wants the best of both worlds, not realizing that it's killing him. She thinks that he's tough enough to do it.
And I'm thinking yes for more ruins. If not ruins, there will be enough hints later for him to figure it out.
1313096 Cuteness Overload! My heart! HURRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *falls over dead*
Good lord! That was a long read.
I've finally gone through all the chapters that are out so far, in a 2-3 day sitting. And I loved every minute of it!
You, my good sir, have made me feel laughter, sadness, sorrow, anger and anticipation with this marvelous story of yours. And there are not many good stories out there that can make me feel much for something that is just a fictional character. But, here we are, and you have truly made Navarone have a sense of character that is truly 3 dimensional, not to mention the other characters that are in the story. They all have depth, and as the story goes on, it only pulls us further and further in, ensnaring one's mind.
I am truly happy that you decided to grace us with your ability to spin a tale, and I hope you will continue to do this for a long time.
Once again, thank you for this tale, and I wait in eager anticipation for the next chapters.
PS: Have a moustache!
1313096
Taya wasn't actually made to be cute, Navarone just sort of saw that he had a filly that was completely loyal to him and he knew that he could use her as a form of defense. He got lucky that he had friends in Applebloom and Sweetie Belle; they taught her all the dirty tricks of the cuteness trade.
1313760
I had the most fun writing those chapters as well. I might have to do another silliness overload chapter soon.
1314253
Glad you liked it. Trust me when I say that there's considerably more to come. Just try to promote the story so that I can get more readers, if you wouldn't mind or if you know anyone that might be interested.
You know, after reading through this chapter again, I got to thinking about who could have been there before Nav, in that underground place with the altars. And, as you said in one of the comments, the one to look into the mirror was Luna.
This then leads me to think about the empty altar, which radiated peace and serenity. I assume that the Elements of Harmony were placed there before, and they were taken by Celestia!
Hm, but this makes me wonder, did Discord make them forget that they were there before, or did Celestia know what Nav was talking about from her own experiences there?
So many questions! Anyways, onwards!
1450726
Correct, they were the elements. And Celestia knew exactly what Nav was talking about. You're really going through this story quickly.
Celestia and Luna only got one item while Nav got three? Don't play favorites Dissy!
Something tells me the stones will be hilarious, and the key will be very useful. Not sure about the ring yet... It has clear advantages and disadvantages, and it also shows his distrust of everything around him. However, does the ring block Discord's magic? I figure it cuts off Celestia/Twilight/Luna's connections to him, yes?
1311332 that is EXACTLY what i thought after hearing it had writing you only can see on it, i was like one ring top control them all and he has it well he has his freedom at last at least
I see the situation take a turn for the worse :(
This is very good
But extraordinarily long
Almost halfway through and I need to read something else or im gonna burn out and forget stuff
And discord's a dick
But im chaotic good so...
>9666
Nice word count, m8
You know, I'm the type of guy who likes to see at least some form of happy ending. After everything Nav has gone through, I think he deserves it. On that note, he probably won't get it though. I'm surprisingly okay with that.
I'd still like to think that Luna is in some way still in love with him. After everything is said and done and it's all over, no matter how bad it ends up for him, I'd still like to think there was at least a chance at a happy end for him.
Knowing what Celestia is like though, I somehow doubt that Luna is that much different, even after a thousand years apart.
2525329
Chaotic good? Cool, I'm lawful good, despite how chaotic my mind is.
And when everything went to shit in the world of ponies! !!
Lies, I don't think Luna is truly like that, more likely misguided.
3296636
Um... I think it is more likely Celestia.
Evidence:
Pedestal of peace (that held items (elements of harmony))
Mr ghost Discord recognized the name
Evidence the voice was Discord:
Creepy smile
Unknown magic
Mish-mashed memories, meaning he has access to Navarones mind.

Wow I mean wow. Celestia gives Nav advice to never take something from a secret underground maze in the evil everfree forest... BUUUT! She was stupid enough to take the elements from that very same altar in that very same room, probably during her time of need, when she fought Discord with Luna. Did she ever ask herself who that damn voice was? And why da hell it would offer her a way to petrify Discord?
There is a damn overpowered malicous spirit of chaos on the loose who is absolutely immune to unicorn magic, and then Celestia realising that just conviniently stumbles upon a maze in that dark forest, where she happens to find by chance, artifacts powerful enough to take on that ultra beast Discord... That just makes Celestia sound naive as hell. Over thousands of years old, but still that naive... Nav really needs to show her off.
Honestly I don't see anything inherently evil about a mirror that 'quote unquote' allows you to see your true form. But given that celestia looked into it and wanted to destroy it, I'm genuinely curious about what horrible thing she saw. Of course the mirror could lie anyways but still.
3407265
Who said that it was Celestia who looked into it?
Title: That forest needs to burn.
I am a little confused. He says here "On it stood an exact duplicate of the lighter I had given to Celestia to give to Luna.", and I know he did give her his lighter in the original continuity, but I don't remember him doing so in this one. And since the lighter was such an important item to him he definitely would have written about giving it away. On the other hand maybe I just missed it, so I wil go back later to make sure whether he did or not.
