1544296 I honestly haven't come across other stable-dweller-after-water-talisman stories yet. I haven't been looking all that hard, but I do wander through the gdoc and Fallout Equestria Resource from time to time...
Talisman is just the impetus, it'll get blown out of the water (har har) as a motivating factor eventually, and I promise it won't be due to an invading army of super mutants/alicorns...
And as I've hinted at - or tried to anyhow, and will get more opportunity to later - Whisper was never meant to succeed in her mission.
I remember joking about how chapter one was going to end up being 20k (which didn't happen thankfully) and now my subsequent chapters are trying to push that... And I've barely gotten to chip at chapter three because of school stuff.
1688173 (in reply to the comment on DA) the only one interested in mares is Whisper, and she has it bad for Socket. Also, they're only the current major characters as of where I'm at. But if it is, so what? They may be more hindrance than help, I haven't decided yet. (Besides, being jinxed is much more fun when it messes with allies as well as the main character and enemies. Also, being sneaky in a fight equals friendly fire.)
If you want a list: FoE, PH, Pinkeyes, New Beginnings, Memories, Guise of Chaos, Heroes, Rolling Bones, Wasteland Bouquet, and Treasure Hunting. That's not including what I haven't finished and poke at when I'm not busy with homework and whatever I've forgotten the title of.
If you're going to run Jinxed trait, take a closer look at Xeno - though I think you've got a solid handle on it already!
Regolit is right, and he's wrong - the _theme_ of stable-dweller fillyfooler chasing a water chip has been done before, but an actual water chip/talisman..
of course, the quest for the macguffin is only half the tale, amirite?
These two chapters seem to be setting up for a pretty nice fic. I see the Fallout 1 influence in there. Even had a few chuckles while reading.
And now, if it's OK, I'm gonna point to a few things in the chapter that seem like grammatical errors, but I'm not sure about? Green text indicates added text. Red indicates a removal suggestion. " I'd like go to Maneford with you." "There was a little warning twinge in my horn and pressure that warned of a coming headache if I kept pushing myself." "My horn was starting to ache from keeping the spell up."
All of these above seem to be cases of missing articles.
Meep! where's the rest of the story?! i've never been so heart broken from finding a blank space where a new chapter shud b. Whisper's my kinda mare (mainly cuz i can identify with her). i really like this fic, plz keep it coming. i'll b sitting on my hands in anticipation.
I'll say that I do, very much, like your story. while I like the main FoE fics, I also have to say I hate them in a way. I tend to find that the smaller ones pull me in more. And this, even more so the second time--which was yesterday--did an overly good job at that. I'm going to do something I could only bring myself to do with a handful of FoE's; favorite it. In any case, good luck with your work, and I will undoubtedly read anymore you may or may not write.
I had to comment and say I found the reference to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull hilarious, I love those movies xD I'm loving this story so far, it's past midnight as I type this and I need sleep so I'm sorry I can't give helpful feedback at the moment lol but I've genuinely enjoyed your writing up to this point ^-^
This chapter was awesome!
1533738 Aww, thanks.

A huge update? Not like I needed sleep anyway.
EDIT: Well, that was a good read. It's coming along nicely.

2403902 yus, tis only half the tale, and if things fall the way they're vaguely planned... well, it'll be fun* - I hope.
*by "fun" I of course mean my joyful glee as I get to torture my poor characters in many, many ways.
