Everypony remembers the tale of Flash Magnus, the pillar of bravery who saved his fellow cadets from the dragons, earning him his title and the shield of Netitus.
He remembers too. He still remembers to this day.
And there is nothing he can do about it.
Based off the "Ghost in the room" prompt from Bean's writing group. And now time to give the special thanks to these beautiful people because they are beautiful and everyone needs to know it.
Lysanderas, shirlendra and bean for their help in editing and fixing this story. Wouldnt have been possible without them!
Special thanks to the rest of the group too. Stay classy you all!
Cover art by short-tale. Thanks to you too!
Chapters (1)
Poignant...
Also...someone needs to get that soldier with the times... psychology became a science while he was away.
Why does Flash Magnus look like he's wearing glasses in the picture? He never wore glasses in the actual show.
This needs a sequel
This is definitely a style-focused story, with some interesting play between memory and reality. I like that part of it!
Characterization is surprisingly deep for how short the story is.
Initial reveal was executed well.
Not much more to say. Great story.
Very good, but it seems like it's just the start of a much larger story. I'm hoping you'll give this a sequel or some more chapters.
An intriguing way to depict PTSD and trauma. I liked the transitions you used.

Funnily enough the thought crossed my mind
It would definitely have potential of being expanded into a larger story
We will see what the future holds
Thank you for taking the time to read this though!

Well, getting introduced to the concept of therapy and/or actually getting it, could be some or all of the main subject of a sequel if you write it.

While being abrupt was likely intentional given the subject matter, it would be interesting to see this expanded upon.
