We all make choices. Decisions that are often thrust upon us by circumstance more often than personal desire. For Orion, his choices will lead him through the veil of our world and into the wonder of another.

but I just reapplied the fuel to the torches! D:
In all seriousness, hope things go well for them, got out of the hospital a month ago, while it goes without saying how invaluable they are, the least time spent there the better, the food tends to be pretty unpleasant too.
Dont worry about the chapters.
I'd be 100% ok with nothing getting written as long as we get an update on how your doing bi weekly.
It looks like the catbird is out of the bag, Orion is now known by the spy master to be the enchanter, but will he still seek his death, or do everything in his power to try and convince him to join them.
I hope things go well with you and the person with the surgery.
As for Orion. Welp, he’s going to be in the receiving end of Grace and her scheming. Hope it doesn’t blow up in their faces.
I’m getting the feeling that Roderick has a punchable face. Like a really punchable face. Hope he’s ready…
First of all, don't worry about having to take a month long break from this story. I'll be here patiently waiting for the next chapter. In fact I think now would be a good time for a reread to refresh my knowledge of the earlier events of Orion's life.
As for my thoughts on this chapter. It seems pretty clear that despite what Orion said about romance a few chapters back. He got pretty jealous when Roderick tried wooing Grace. I'm now really curious to see what Grace and Orion's relationship will evolve into in the years to come.
Take your time dude, perfection isn’t done in a day after all!
Great chapter!
Hope the employee is alright.
And there it is. If there was anyone in this story who would figure it out, it was definitely the griffins.
*insert the "oh god, oh man oh god oh man" meme here*
I hope your employee comes out all good with their surgery and heals up quickly.
I'll be waiting on pins and needles for when you are able to write and publish the next chapter.

Orion’s secret should still be safe, right? Dead men tell no tales, and Eberhard Lonelycall is about to get savagely murdered by a gaggle of Rosebreast’s mercenaries. It’s pretty clear their intent on killing everyone at Aviary in order to stop Grace from ascending to 4th in line; and even if the sadistic leader of the mercenaries tortures the info out of Ebenhard, who are they going to tell? The Griffin king? Imagine how that convo goes down -“Hey King! We should kill the guy who gave us steel because he is an enchanter. I know this cuz I tortured the info out of one of your oldest friends before murdering him, and before destroying Griffonia’s first steel forges in half a millennia; which was all done as part of a plot to eventually dethrone you and install Rosebreas as Queen.”

Thanks for another awesome chapter. And don’t worry about taking time you need for work. Hope your employee gets well soon! Besides, we’re also lurking for the art you commissioned. Any idea on when we’re going to get a peak at it?

Hospital food, I am convinced, is born from the internals of a giant slug. Molded into something akin to human food.
Bland.
Unseasonably.
*shudder*
11584204
Lmao, we shall see.
11584239
Ah, that tis the question, isn't it? What will Eberhard do? Even I wonder.
11584279
Eh, he's fine. I'm just annoyed I have to do the job again.
Can we be done with this arc already!
Ooh Orion started get little angry because some guy trying taken his girl, even though he won't admit.
For someone trying to keep his head down, Orion is running around like a bull in a china shop. Now, as for how him being an Enchanter became known, very well done. It's a very creative way to have that revealed. I would have never thought of that in a million years. That was honestly done brilliantly. So many writers would have picked something simple. A theft, or an accident, or someone just stumbling across papers. Using the diamond dogs nose ... that was creative.

Well, what has Edward seen of Orion? He's seen many instances of philanthropy from him, that goes counter to what the pony church wants. He's also seen orion try to keep himself and Grace safe from that church, and the other griphon nobility. I think Edmund could probably count on him to keep grace as safe as could reasonably be expected, and that he's not in the ponies' pocket.

It may come to pass that Eberhard ultimately decides to NOT tell anyone he figured out that Orion is the enchanter, because he realized that he then would be condemning an otherwise good guy who has done his best to help out and has helped both his country and people immensely, and who wants to keep on helping both them and others, to an early, violent and brutal death if King Bloodbeak didn't take the news very well.
Not to mention how hard Orion's death would hit and how adversely it would affect his liege lady and the colts friend, Grace/Screaming, if he were to expose Orion as an enchanter and he gets assassinated because of it. He seems to really care a lot about Grace's wellbeing so he has to consider their friendship, how close they are and Grace's attachment to Orion into the equation as well.
He may just end up requesting that Bloodbeak send a few of their agents to Equestria, so they can keep very close tabs on him to see what he does and if he gets found out. With Eberhard giving them all explicit orders to go and break Orion out in the event he is found out and is captured by Celestia, and then they are to smuggle him out of the country to Griffonia by any means necessary.
Or they are to eliminate him if they deem that he unfortunately cannot be rescued and smuggled out of Equestria to Griffonia, or if he refuses to go with them/they find he has started to willingly enchant stuff for Sun Cunt.
Eberhard also just might outright tell Bloodbeak that Orion is the enchanter they had heard about, but that in his professional opinion he strongly believes the colt isn't actually enough of a threat to either their nation and people, to actually warrant him being assassinated/eliminated and that if they did that they quite possibly COULD end up unwittingly disposing of/killing what might end up being a potentially very valuable ally sometime in the future.
And without a doubt they would be killing a kind and generous person, who has immensely helped both their country and people to regain a foothold again; so they could start pulling themselves back up and out of the abyss they had fallen into and were stuck in that had almost swallowed them completely.
Not to mention that he also seemingly had ZERO desire to go to Celestia, out himself as an enchanter and then start working for her as the "Royal Enchanter" and if he ever did end up working for her, then it would not be willingly. That he would only be doing so if she was somehow forcing him to enchant for her and so he might try to escape himself or he would willingly choose to leave with some of their agents if they went to come and rescue him.
That he should also really consider that, how Orion's death would adversely affect his niece and if she ever found out what he had done, there was a good chance that she would never trust him again and could end up coming to resent or even outright hate him.
Then there was the matter of how Sun Cheeks would take his death while he was supposedly in Griffonia on vacation if the king had him assassinated. She likely would not take it well at all and she could end up using it as an excuse and a justification to take some sort of action against them, whether it be overt or covert.
So the King really, really shouldn't have him killed unless it was ABSOLUTELY necessary for everyone's safety and he only really recommends the whole constant spying thing, until something actually happens requiring action on their part beyond mere observation.

And far as Eberhard potentially trying to talk Orion into joining them? I honestly don't think Orion will agree to that and the best Eberhard is likely going to ever get from him, is Orion telling him that he will do his best to try and not get outed as the enchanter and that even if he is, he won't take any actions that would betray Grace's trust in him and could cause harm to Griffonia, all of her people and those close to her.
11594202
Uh, Edward, Edmund?
Did you happen to mean Eberhard by chance?
11607282
That's what I said! Edwin!
11607285
Seems like sombody is trolling, and I don't mean as a way to potentially catch fish either...😏
I can hardly wait for your return...
I don't think it was ever mentioned but what exactly does Grace look like? I think I read in one of the chapters that she had the head of a falcon but no specification as to what kind of falcon. And nothing on her feline half either.
Caught up to here to say keep up the good work man! Hope things aren't too rough with your ideas for the stories direction, and that you don't get too boggled down by your scope. Honestly, I'm really liking with what the story has done so far, but you may want to be careful with how much time you would want to settle with in terms of both character interactions, and the moment to moments that lead into whatever the story has in store next. Maybe I'm just surprised that you want to make something on a grander scale, so the pacing is slow for a good reason. But either way, I'm still excited to see what you write as you go along. Thanks.
Was skeptical at first about the story, but as I kept reading, I couldn’t stop. Fantastic work, and I look forward to reading more!~

Aww damn, I'm all caught up

Eh, nowhere as weird as "Humansville".
I'd been holding off on reading this because of the anthro tag. I hate anthro ponies. They take me right out of the story and leave me reeling. Ponies are anthropomorphized enough as-is, making them bipedal and giving them hands while still retaining pony parts like wings horns and hooves is just wrong to me.
No knocking on your story, I'm sure it's great and well-written. What little I did read of it proves that. I just won't be able to properly immerse myself and enjoy it with that hanging over it the entire time.

I actually had exactly the same problem you had. I genuinely despise the Anthro tag, and I remember originally dropping the story because of it. I only came back to read it because it popped in my head when I was building a bookshelf of stories I absolutely would not read, so that I could take advantage of advanced search features to try to find something that would interest me, after I had practically consumed the whole site.
Now that I've read it all, I definitely think it's worth more than my initial evaluation. I'd say it's at least a consistent 7/10. It's good enough that I went trawling through the old copy for spoilers and hoo boy, the old copy is maybe a polite 4/10 from what I saw of the back half, so the author definitely put in the effort and it shows. I think you should give it a try.
Update when?
11647966
Who's mister asshole again?
I...really, really need an update to this story. I fukin love it
Update?
I had binged the entirety of the older version around its completion in an embarrassingly short amount of time, and had basically been sent to the flash memory portion of my brain. However, this remake is almost unrecognizable to what little I can recall. It's crazy how much you've improved, I'm starting to suspect you have access to some hyperbolic time chamber
...How funny would it be if some griffons made Orion a saint? He's certainly done three good deeds for them by this point.
Well...
Fuck.
I think Orion should resist, then I remember that polygamy is legal, grace and twilight, it seems good to me, go Orion take both
