Is the halt temporary or is this cancelled?
holy shit, this is a name I haven't seen in a hot minute

Temporary! I’m not about to cancel this. Sorry if I gave you the impression otherwise. I’ll reword the Author’s Note.
Nice Very very nice ~♡
Juicy action incoming 👍
Ibex try to seperate Griffons and Humans but they only bonded em together...
Question! Can the Cloven of the Sun use brain parasites without killing the target?
The game 'plage inc.' Uses a brain parasitic organism for instance...

Or five long years. Welcome to the relaunched story! Either dig right in, or check out my introductory blog that explains it. Hope you enjoy!

Thank you!
Yep! But I’m afraid you’ll have to wait for it a bit. Have to work on other stories for a while.
Exactly! When it comes down to it, they’ll have nobody to blame for it but themselves.
In all honesty, I haven’t yet worked out all the abilities of the Cloven yet, though I have figured out at least one very nasty trick they can do, designed to weaken or even outright break an enemy’s will to fight. It will be ugly and psychologically devastating when they employ it fully. And will require an equally potent counter...
Yes, I do have something very epic in mind. No, I’m not going to spoil it. This simply cannot be given away too soon, sorry.

*Vatican embassy siege intensifies*
Gosh, I love this story. The day it ends will probably be emotionally devestating for me. :P
10983630
Thanks! All good things must end, but this story has a long way to go yet. We were all disappointed if not devastated when DEL left without finishing the original. I won’t be working on this is for a bit, but I’ve got plenty of other good clop and military fiction, so feel free to check it out as well!
poor Fortrakt . . .
Thanks again Firesight for another amazing chapter. It's really nice to see Marco and Gilda finally together after walking circles around each other so long. I'm excited to see how this slowburn romance goes and how the plot thickens with the Acendency business with the Ibex. Good luck with your next chapter, and as always have fun writing.

I know I’m hard on the poor bird. But don’t worry, there’s definitely compensation for him here. He’ll get his chance to shine, and be rewarded, both here and in the side story.
10984265
This comment made my day. Thanks for all the compliments! I was worried how the chapter would be received given I was letting them finally get together for real, but it seems to have gone over well. The plot will definitely thicken further with the Ibex, and I do have things planned for them--especially when the Cloven come.
Very much appreciated! I’ll do my best to have fun writing so folks you like you can have fun reading.

Classy reference!

Finally, someone spotted it!
Sadly, Hogan’s Heroes might be a little too old for most to recognize, even though it’s all-time classic comedy.
Marco getting his hands on some high level Griffon meat and honey wine! A feast worth of gods 👍
Sooo... Are Griffons compatible with humans? Dont know if the need protection. At least her talons could need wax seals. I can guarantee that that stuff saves Furniture of cat markings and Marco's from getting 'Passionate Talon marks'. Unless its a developing guilty pleasure? 👍

Indeed, I was.
Well played.

True it was an AU within the canon show, but it is also arguably valid that the magitech to create the prosthetics should still exist in the show's main timeline. A crippled pegasi would NOT be able to go back into battle if the mechanical wing was a "newly-invented, just-created, experimental prototype" in such an AU timeline--especially RD, given that she would insist that the mechanical wing would have to perform for her as well as her original wings had done.
What the future that both worlds could benefit from such trade definitely has the potential of ushering in a utopic society--which is why I do like the Gentlemanverse series--or, given our current crop of political idiots, there would be the extremely high and more likely potential it would end both worlds.
Next Chapter:
Marco: "You know, it's going to be very hard to rut you with all of my limbs dislocated. "
Gilda: "Hard is what I want! Now you just stay there and please me!! "
Marco: "....that....didn't exactly come out right "

I have to say Jyc Row is a seriously good composer, and quite prolific with the fan-made MLP themes. I think you'll find he's done quite a few you'll like.
BTW, I'm finally caught up, only to see that you're going to put this thing ON PAUSE!!?
10990218
You’re welcome.

All this is true, but wartime tends to dramatically accelerate technological development over what it would have been otherwise. It’s certainly happened in our world often enough. In that timeline, they had good reason to develop such abilities, but in the regular one... yes, the capability may be there, but it’s not currently realized because Equestria hasn’t been at war in a very long time. That will change shortly, though...
Nevertheless, your points are taken and I will give this some thought, given there will certainly be great need for replacement limbs later.
I would not want to introduce Equestria to the Earth of today. And idiot is the least of the terms I would apply to our current crop of self-styled elites who destroy everything they touch and are never held accountable for anything, except maybe upsetting more powerful elites.
10990507
I know you’re joking, but like Gilda says, if he didn’t get killed or torn up during that night by amorous or angry griffons, then he’s not really in any danger here except for the accidental scratch or nip. And besides, all the zap apple-boosted fertility potion they got did have some lingering and perhaps permanent aftereffects that you’ll be finding out about in due course. Fortrakt’s not the only one who’s bigger now, but that’s far from the only effect.
10990514
Thanks for the tip. I’ll check out more of his stuff.
10990520
Yep. That’s how big a bastard I am.
In all seriousness, I’m very gratified to know you like this and want to see more, but I’ve worked on this thing almost exclusively since late last winter, generating nearly 200k words for it. I’ve got other stories that have been languishing and need my attention for now, but don’t worry--this is far from forgotten.
In the meantime, if you’d like to see my military thrillers, check out my Firefly series, which is canon to this story, describing the course of the Great Pony/Gryphon War. I’ve also got an array of wild and crazy clopfics to enjoy, including Five Star Service, my first entry into the Gentlemanverse. I wrote the dramatically expanded Turnabout Storm novelization, and I’ve even got a Twilight-visits-Chernobyl story inspired by the HBO series a couple years ago. So feel free to give some of those a try while you’re waiting for this to resume. I’ve got 3.5 million words written on Fimfiction, and I promise my other works will keep you busy and hopefully engrossed for a while.

Well, getting his hands on the high-level griffon meat happens over in Eros, but I know what you mean. Time for a griffon to get her talons on some high-level human meat instead!
Not normally, no. But after that much fertility potion...? You’ll have to stay tuned to find out what lingering effects all that potion crossed with zap apple essence may have done to them, other than enhance their stature like Fortrakt noted here.
Marco has a bit of a fetish for danger and pushing boundaries, as I think the side story makes clear. But I think he’d happily trade a few claw marks or beak bites for the chance to hilt himself in her!

True, wartime will accelerate innovation, but it's not the only motivation to invent & create new technologies. And even without war, there would be folks with accidents who have lost limbs--in the Main timeline, no less, there was Fizzlepop Berrytwist who lost her horn, after all. There was the Savage Skies series by Moguera that actually addressed someone creating a prosthetic unicorn horn, and his idea was LONG before the Movie came out! Who's to say they couldn't do that in the Main timeline? I've always wondered if Moguera's stories from 2-4 yrs earlier might have influenced McCarthy and/or Vogel to write Tempest to have that particular injury and thus give her the motivation to help the Storm King due to the promise to replace her horn? Even if the writers were influenced, they would need to be careful about ever acknowledging it, due to any potential legal ramifications.
As to why it wasn't done yet in the show was probably more to do with the production being leery about introducing the original target audience to the idea--even though they had introduced dozens of "adult themes" by displaying multiple cases of mental illnesses with numerous examples of OCD, mania, autistic behavior, workaholic, excessive competitiveness, and so on, in their main characters, as well as several examples of antisocial behavior in popular supporting characters like bullying, lying, stealing, backstabbing, gluttony, lust, totalitarianism, etc.... I suspect the production worried that too much time would be needed "to explain" how such injuries occurred rather than what the focus should be on: dealing with the handicap and obvious and visible scars. After all, look at the ridiculous amount of time that was spent "explaining" why everyone was scared shitless about Zecora.
Indeed. Logically, Gilda and Tara would also be "larger" in not just their mammaries, but also in their capacity to accommodate males who had gotten "larger". Also, there's the potential that one or both of them might have gotten pregnant.
Or even the possibility thatFortraktandMarcomight be pregn---NO, LET'S NOT GO THERE!!10991408
I sure will! I did see them among your story list. I sure will, but maybe not right away. So much to catch up on reading other series and Real Life.
Plus, I REALLY need to get back to updating my own shit here..... I'm YEARS behind on them

Let me say right now that I do not accept the movie as canon. Regardless of the verse I write in, what I take from show canon basically cuts off at season 5. Part of it is for practical reasons--that’s about all the G4Mverse ever encompassed, given the coming of humanity was somewhere during season 4 or 5. But part of it is because I really do not like the direction the show went in the late years. In particular, I do not like the movie, which was pretty but basically took a wrecking ball to the show. It was full of enormous plot holes and way-out-of-character portrayals that should never have been made canon. So I ignore it and everything that came after in my writing, though I’ve had an idea a couple times to basically do a fix-fic for it.
I’ll forgive that in the initial season, which was still feeling its way and had some pacing issues at times. The show peaked in season two, in my opinion, with maximum ‘adult themes’ in the Changeling invasion finale. My main complaint is that as the production crew evolved, they lost touch with and sight of what the show and characters originally were, replacing a show that was deep and savvy with one that was very shallow and over-relied on pop culture references and gimmicks, reducing characters to mere caricatures of what they initially were. Twilight became more about her neuroses than her power (which they pretty much abandoned), and the princesses were reduced to figureheads, which I find unforgiveable. Making them retire at the end was just a spit in the face to me, and I simply do not accept it. When you get to reading Firefly or the The Lawyer and The Unicorn, you’ll see what Celestia should be. Ditto for Luna in the latest chapter of Nightmare Night.
Correct on all counts, but the aftereffects also go well beyond merely physical enhancements. They’ll discover what they are over time.
There is indeed that potential, and that’s all I’ll say for now.
Hadn’t planned to, but now that you mention it... No, I wouldn’t go there--at least, not in canon. But a non-canon bonus chapter where all the beta males--Chris, Marco and Fortrakt--were all tucked and impregnated by alpha male Giraldi, who was already so overwhelmingly masculine and fertile that the potion enabled him to make females out of lesser males? Hmmm...
I jest. Mostly.
10991494
No problem. I certainly understand how that is. Good luck, and I look forward to hearing back from you when you start reading my other works.
Ouf, insert waiting meme here.
10994009
Yep, sorry. But I’m glad to see you’ve caught up, and that you seem to be enjoying it thus far. Given I’ve left both the main and side stories off on cliffhangers and multiple readers have expressed dismay, I’m now thinking that I’m going to have to continue this sooner rather than later.
I read all the chapters here in one sitting. I wonder what this gilda would think of Roman history, or of those meme videos on roman history by dovahhatty on youtube
11016982
Sorry for not answering this sooner. Let me take care of that now:
Thanks, that’s very flattering! I’m sure she--to say nothing of griffons in general--would be fascinated and probably a little disturbed by the parallels, wondering if their nation was doomed to splinter and fall as well. If I showed them such a series before the Cloven invaded, I could use it for foreshadowing, but the problem there is, there’s no way in hell they’d show them that even if Marco by some strange fluke had those videos with him. He has movies and shows he likes; it would be extremely unlikely his library would contain a Roman meme video or history series.
Absolutely top notch story here.

Very much appreciated!
Gilda and Marco are as subtule as a Brick to a Glas house... can be...
11139241
Subtle is not in Gilda’s vocabulary, and Marco loves to push boundaries and see what he can get away with. Put them together? Instant fireworks. 🎇
What could possibly go right ?
