Alright, it's time to read another chapter of PoW!
(1) So going back to a few chapters ago, Moonlight has been fucking with many studs and Cerise after she split from the herd right? So who would Moonlight be if she decided to just stay as friends with Midnight and no longer come back to Midnight's herd?
Like we know that Midnight and Cerise supposedly have two kids in the future, and even that is being questioned due to Sombra potentially knocking up Cerise and my own "vendetta" against Midnight (XD), but there's no child of Moonlight. So either Moonlight of the future got killed, her child just wasn't written into the story yet, or she settled with someone else.
(2) "We're really fucked up right?" No shoot, you guys totally are. Oof.
Like, if I hadn't met you two and read Lightendark, Midnight and Moonlight would obviously not be part of it and they wouldn't have suffered the things they do here. But now that they're part of the story, not only did their original timeline get rewritten due to Beatrix's wish, but then it was rewritten again after the battle with the Burning King, and then their future counterparts are most likely dead.
So yeah, they're fucked on multiple levels.
(3) Hearing Midnight say that he won't waste his second life is both wholesome and hilarious, because there's almost no chance this story will give him or anyone for that matter a break. But I guess here's to hoping???
(4) I'm happy that Eclipsed has pretty much gotten over her initial shock when she realized she's just a copy of Cerise. Now she's joking about how she's just a year old due to how Beatrix's Prima Materia / Wishes work.
(5) Well I can't really blame the minotaurs for blaming Midnight for the fiasco, because he *was* meant to at least try and protect Cerise. Idk how effective he'd be against Penumbra controlled by Sombra if that somehow still occurred or against the Cult but he should've been able to at least try.
But no, he not only failed to protect, he *did* make that event happen and his Onoma that appeared in the end was underwhelming. Lightning's was so wicked it puts Midnight's 12 feet under XD
(6) Actually it is true that Beatrix's outfit has always been less than appropriate, always ready to get some "fun" action. I do wonder if in the future she'll have a different outfit, one that reflects her adventures but allows Aba to grow up in a more "modest" home? Like, as modest as Beatrix can go lol.
Scratch that, Beatrix will always be Beatrix, but it would still be cool seeing her in different clothes.
(7) Hmm, I would like to see some of that action between Beatrix and Dion when he becomes chieftain~
Like I said before though, I am worried about the safety of his twins if the absence of children from them implicates their deaths.
Though as later mentioned, maybe their infertility status is never lifted and thus they can never conceive.
(8) Honestly if anything Beatrix upon drinking that potion could be bigger. Because the only thing she really lost is the bounciness? But still, Beatrix being hot is a good Beatrix to read XD
(9) It's good to see Arcanum being happy about finally seeing Bloody Merry again. Another pair reunited, just like Zeloph and Shadow were.
(10) And of course as always, the clop is always top tier level! Even when short every moment of lust is very much appreciated.
I can see why She'Ba is so powerful though with so much sex going on.
(11) Honestly I question why Midnight is in the bar, because not only will it weaken his self control to sex, as it was a habit and the only thing stopping him is moral and emotional regret which can cave to lust, but Fiery's soldiers are literally there and can see him! Heck even Fiery himself might topple with Midnight and do something with him!
I now think the issue is that not only Midnight never has time to improve, they barely give him any time at all and automatically throw him into the next situation thinking he'll get better. Cerise, Moonlight, and Midnight all thought he could hold it in if he tried and well he just physically couldn't. But if from the get go they all realize that they should at least try and minimize any risks and teach him how to self control himself without needing to fuck a mare (if it's even possible) or at least further bond with him through sex, then so much pain could've been avoided. Maybe.
Obviously Midnight is the one mainly at fault but I can see his original argument as to why he's not the only one to blame, even if the way he put it was as bad as rolling a 1 on a d20.
Like c'mon Moonlight, you told Midnight you'd watch over and then you immediately leave him in order to deal with your own mess. -.-
You're going to sacrifice his sanity and another friendship point.
(12) … why is Beatrix sounding so weird??? Like so weird, so meta. That his life is just all possibilities of him merged into one (which I can make canon if I write his origin story like that lol!)
And of course Midnight is now horny for Beatrix *facepalm*
And now Midnight is speaking weird? Like yeah I expected him to cave quick, but not *this* quickly. We're definitely in a nightmare, whose is it though? Beatrix or Midnight?
It's Beatrix's. ._.
(13) Honestly, why can't our characters just exist in peace? I know that their histories literally prevent them from doing so but if we just placed them into a blank room with no threats and just paradise, wouldn't that be good for them?
I'm happy that they're fighting for that better life but it pains me to see how much they're suffering.
Actually I wonder what would happen if a story written about them being stuck in their own paradise would occur and how long they'd realize it's fake. It's Paradise 2 but with the main cast.
Though it probably won't make sense because again they're already fighting for that world. Maybe if somebody programmed it so that they ended up living an entirely separate life inside that world? Like Eclipsed was "born" in only a year but had an entire backstory of 18 years. So something like that.
Idk, just throwing this because I really wished they had just lived normal lives.
(14) But… I guess Midnight did survive against the lust (for now! If he messes up, and he will, I'll chant his sacrifice lol XD).
Only because it was Beatrix's nightmare.
(15) Wait wait wait, when did Beatrix and Moxxi have that scene? What chapter? What am I missing?! XD
I'm sure I read it, I just forgot
(16) Was Wispy actually considering fucking Midnight? Glad he dodged that bullet! Phew!
Fun to see that cock potion again though!
(17) So now without the Necronomicon, over reliance on the Demiurge could consume Beatrix?
Beatrix *was* present for Future Aba right? You're not telling me she ended up getting corrupted in her fight against Alma, leading the "good caring" Omen to protect Future Oona before the betrayal
(18) Midnight's character sheet will be quite interesting to read considering he's had one of the most fluctuating power levels in the entire series! From full nelsoning Shadow and dealing high physical damage to becoming the weakest of the group to now gaining magic attack. He's very unique.
(19) Boy that smile Midnight got when he told Fiery that he no longer is a Hyper Stallion would be totally worth any pain he got henceforth.
Until maybe Equinox arrives with his serum and reinjects his DNA back into his systems? Idk where she is anymore.
(20) Finally the entire group is now reunited as they chase off Fiery! Oh boy is he now going to be *very* angry. "Kakarot" / Goku Level Angry.
(21) XD. Beatrix just had to comment on Shadow's upgraded cup size! While Beatrix lost her's a bit, Shadow's went up!
(22) Iclyn speaks facts. Unfortunately, nobody is truly free from lust. That's why She'Ba is OP! Lust rules this world!
(23) The other Midnights, especially those with "different rules", laugh at Lightendark Midnight for not being able to challenge a minotaur in size.
Yeah Moonlight is now getting intimate with Moon Hammer which I strangely approve of! And I like how Moon Hammer's cock reveal is a parallel to how Midnight's semi hard rivaled Dion's during the pool scene.
It's sounding like he's a 20. Wonder how big Andrei the Trident dragon was. 30?
Nothing that Hyper Size rules can't challenge though! XD
But seriously, Midnight is *really* having the short stick (pun not intended) if it sounds like his Hyper size here is smaller than most Midnights. I think the poll for Riding In Zebrica had him at 27? 18? Idk if people understood how the poll worked.
(24) Yeah I love that scene between Moonlight and Moon Hammer with Marathyssa joining in! Perfect!
(25) Tuning back to Fiery, yeah he's really angry. He's getting angry towards everyone, all of these failures, all of these failed plans, they're getting to him. He's not a Sombra in terms that all he does is cool, even the bad stuff. Fiery is just angry and I find that amusing but I'm also disappointed when he's trying to hurt others.
And now Equinox is back.
What I find so funny is even after humiliating her and fucking his pent up cum into her, Fiery is still so mad to not realize that hey! She brought the Hyper Stallion booster from Midnight! And she's they're best spy!
She can literally go back to Hammerfall and make Midnight a Hyper Stallion again!
And with an Onoma he'll-
Still most likely fail because it's what? Him against 7 people with Onomas, and many of them top tier? But perhaps Hyper Strength and an Elemental Onoma could do enough damage that Fiery's plan could still work and his breeder project could commence, if Fiery wasn't always so mad that he could never come up with that plan! At least for now.
Or at least if he wasn't angry he could have kept his allies close and his enemies closer.
Like, how many times has he sabotaged himself with his own rage? If he had waited, then maybe he could've injected Midnight with the serum and caused severe damage to the camp, but he's too mad to calculate.
(26) Anyways I'm happy that I read this chapter! It was really fun and I hope to read the next chapter soon!
11720154 1. For now, Moonlight is trying to figure out who she wants to be with, since she still loves Midnight and Cerise, but they're also a reminder of the pain she's suffered. Meanwhile, Moon Hammer lets her escape the pain, but she's also still playing second fiddle to other women, so she remains undecided.
4. Indeed, Eclipsed's existential crisis over what she is mostly took place in the Cyberverse stories. In a sense she's more a warped, caricatured perception of how Beatrix perceives Cerise; Eclipsed is younger and more innocent/cheery/a little more shapely, yet Eclipsed didn't spend her life mostly cooped up in a pyramid but instead traveled her city putting on concerts and becoming a vigilante in secret to protect people from crime.
5. Omen is mainly to blame for Cerise's crystal shield falling, but of course most don't know that so blame tends to fall on Midnight since he's sworn to protect his wife.
6. Nota's come up with designs for alternative outfits for Beatrix that are more modest, maybe we'll see them eventually?
11. Basically, Moonlight hopes that Midnight can build tolerance. Lust is fine but not when it becomes a self-destructive addiction, which funny enough Moonlight is also struggling with due to depression.
12. Beatrix's crush on Midnight has never fully went away; she intended to help build his tolerance with some teasing, spaced out with a fantasy, which spun out of control due to Omen invading it. Of course, she'd never want to hurt him, Moonie, or Cerise.
14. Yep, Midnight felt some 'innocent' lust with Beatrix's boobs in his face, but maintained self-control as he continues to mature.
15. It was in The Bewitching Hour, can't recall which chapter?
16. Wispy was definitely looking for a potential hookup but she's pretty picky sometimes: she'd certainly find Middy fun to tease, at the least!
17. Yes, like with Spiderman's symbiote, the Demiurge could permanently bond with and alter Beatrix, to the point she might be overwhelmed by darkness. Hell, it might be why she almost surrendered to lust around Midnight as she wanted to jump his bones...
26. Thank you! Sadly the scene of Cerise and Chrysalis had to be cut since this was another long chapter, we'll see what they're up to next time!
11720154 1) Only Abadonna knows that answer 🤷 6) Perhaps in the future, she'll dress up more modestly! 7) It's been a while since they got some action together, I'll admit (They were originally going to fuck in U&A before some alterations). They'll likely give in to temptation sooner or later 13) What you're describing is called a Lotus-Eater Machine. Something Omen is very capable of doing. 15) The Neon Demon chapter from The Bewitching Hour. 16) Wispy's feeling a little sour after Triad's familiar. She'll try anything that isn't abhorrently monstrous. 17) It's likely Beatrix will expunge the Demiurge in a later chapter. It's also likely it may find a more suitable host. 18) Actually, his will be pretty straightforward. 25) Hard to have patience when your world threatens to fall apart at any moment.
(7) Another interesting thing to see. Dion x Beatrix rocks!
(13) The Lotus-Eater? So we've already seen it before? And it's been used before?
(15) Ah cool. I might check that chapter again.
(16) Good thing Midnight dodged a bullet there by leaving. He was very close to failing instantly, if the nightmare Beatrix had was fake but real IRL or if he had stayed for longer.
Causing fucking Beatrix might be something he'd do??? Like they've never actually fucked with each other, might never in this lore. I wonder if that should be held the same if I ever decided to write Beatrix in a story or mine.
(17) Like who? Oona who's starting to take on some shadows on her back? Like Aba mentioned something wrong happening during the battle so it could be anything.
I'm currently going through many theories as to how Oona could become She'Ba before considering alternatives.
(18) cool.
Ya know apart from the stats bar, another cool idea would've been a Pentagon stats like from UnOrdinary. And of course She'Ba would form a demonic star.
(25) That is very true. What do you think of Thunder Storm in your mind? How would you have interpreted him and how he would've led the war instead of Shining and Fiery?
11720287 (1) Very interesting. Like at least she's trying new things. And her scene with Moon Hammer was very well written! I found it very hot!
(4) Well that sounds interesting. A alt version of Midnight wouldn't exist because Midnight is already that alt version, but who else could end up having an alt?
(5) That's true, but I'm siding with the locals and blaming Midnight too! XD
(6) That'd be cool. Like she probably did use different clothes for Midnight's wedding, right???
(11) Like, thankfully it succeeded, but imagine if that nightmare wasn't real and Midnight and Beatrix did end up fucking! Quickest fail in history!
Like, I know he has to develop tolerance but once again they're throwing Midnight into situations too fast. It's a good thing he managed to actually control himself, regret is a powerful limiter, but I wouldn't have wanted to risk my friend falling again by putting him in a bar full of topless mares with massive tits.
It doesn't compute.
(12) I know she doesn't want to hurt anybody. But honestly I'm betting that if Beatrix didn't space out, they definitely would have fucked. She wanted some plowing that night (and she got it with Wispy) and her own lust wouldn't have helped in controlling Midnight's.
(14) I wouldn't call it maturing yet, just being lucky to have dodged many many bullets in that single night.
(15) Ah so it was in that story. Might check again.
(16) But what if she did want to test his Hyper size? Which might have weakened a bit??? Did he still retain his size, at least while not transformed? Otherwise he's probably now as big as Dion since before his half erect size was almost bigger than Dion's full one.
Just like Moon Hammer's!
Actually I do find it funny that due to our different rules, Midnight has once again gotten the short stick because Hyper Stallions in my AUs are way more OP in terms of size. We're talking actual horse cock size!
(17) Well she's always wanted to fuck every second she can, so maybe upon it's removal she no longer has that insatiable lust? Which would be good for her family with Oona and Aba.
Idk if Oona's father would approve of Beatrix getting wild with the citizens if she's meant to be tied to Oona. Like he ain't happy that Beatrix isn't there to protect Oona even if she is actually being actively delayed by multiple things!
(26) Oh dear. Hearing Chrysalis and Cerise together does not bode good news. But either ways I can't wait for that chapter!
(-) Fiery and his men are still near Hammerfall right? But they're now packing right? Could it be possible that once Fiery has cooled down, he might order Equinox to inject Midnight again?
Like, if he ever cools down and thinks of that possibility. Like it'd be funny as hell to me if Midnight immediately falls to lust again.
11720635 4. Hard to say, I'm very cautious about alternatives because they can cheapen the original and lower the stakes if a character can be replaced. However, in Eclipsed's case I've used her to try and explore Cerise from a different angle, and endeavoured to give her slightly different quirks/style.
6. Yep, Beatrix will generally respect different cultures unless she morally opposes them, so she'd tone it down for a close friend's wedding!
11. Well, topless cow women, but Beatrix would agree with Moonlight that Middy needs to learn control!
12. Nah, Beatrix has also gotten much better at controlling herself over time, and wouldn't dare come between Cerise's relationship unless Middy would die without her sexing him up. She'd step in to correct him if he stepped out of line, but she still enjoys teasing and flirting with him!
16. Like Shining Armor with his repressed hyper-stallion gene, Midnight's pretty big but not insane.
(-) Yeah, Fiery and co aren't that far away, outside the guard towers Moon Hammer set up but close enough to mount an invasion if they wanted.
11720776 (4) Well even if an alternative of Shadow existed, she'd never be able to replace her original so I think just encountering an alt of her would be fine.
Like now Lightendark Midnight is apparently a combination of all possibilities of Midnight according to Beatrix, so maybe she encounters a different possibility of him.
It'd be funny though if Beatrix and Midnight never fucked even if they encounter alternatives of each other. It's just impossible.
(6) cool.
(11) If I were inside Lightendark, I would make sure Midnight has time to learn control. I wouldn't throw him into a bar. The girls around him are already a tease, he doesn't need to see huge tits that'll cause him to become horny.
And as we saw, he did end up bumping into Fiery's men, but at the same time he was able to protect Moonlight. So I guess it was a good thing he went?
Idk, this world constantly throws Midnight and co into situations they sometimes can't handle and when they crack it's a disaster. Just give the OCs a break lol.
(12) Well at least Midnight doesn't need sex to live anymore.
Like his Hyper side is fully repressed forever right? Unless too much sex awakens it again? Like it'd be hard considering he's conscious of his actions, but if Fiery just drugged him and made him fuck, maybe the Hyper Stallion could be reawakened?
Now that I think about it, the Necronomicon being destroyed makes things a bit confusing. What do we mean when his Hyper Stallion is gone? Like if his age was returned because he was never born as a Hyper Stallion to begin with because Beatrix's wish no longer is valid, then shouldn't a timeline correction be catching up to our heroes again?
His father would be Thunder again, any Hyper Stallion DNA would cease to exist from his timeline, and parts of the timeline would be changed.
And yet he's still a suppressed Hyper Stallion? Does it take time for the timeline to catch up or does this count as a permanent thing? Then if it was permanent then should the damage he had done to himself also been permanent? He damaged his soul!
Though that means Eclipsed and those made by Beatrix's wish could be at risk of fading due to the timeline catching up. Her wishes might be powered by her Prima Materia so once it runs out, all of that energy will come colliding with the present?
(16) I'm honestly thinking that the definition of Hyper Stallion is very loose. If a Hyper Stallion were truly the best and more powerful studs, they'd need to be very massive, like very massive to keep their herd.
But Midnight isn't the biggest, he's being owned by minotaurs and I imagine a good enough zebra could probably defeat him in size. In Riding in Zebrica though, Midnight is so big he broke condoms meant for the biggest of zebras, and zebras are on average bigger than Equestrians. That is the definition of a Hyper Stallion.
And a friend offered the idea that if a stallion trained enough, they could become even bigger!
But with Lightendark Midnight he doesn't have that definition. I think Zeloph's statement that Midnight just simply got a very quick boost in strength and size is accurate. They are stronger in order to fight off those that could steal their mares, instead of solely compensating it with addicting cum and cock size (like what Moon Hammer has and what RIZ Midnight's have).
…
I just realized why I made the title Riding in Zebrica. Acronym is RIZ. Midnight got some rizz! XD
But anyways they in turn become stressed really fast, break their souls, and die very young.
I imagine you could be bigger than a Hyper Stallion even as an Equestrian (not a different race like Moon Hammer) but not be a Hyper Stallion. But once you are, you might have a huge cock by default and immense strength and sex stamina but you're going to be running out of fumes soon if you push yourself too much.
And boy did Midnight push himself. He practically wasted his entire lifetime in just a year depending on how long it was from Manor to now.
(-) Or send Equinox to make Midnight Hyper again. Fiery kinda too angry to think lol.
11720829 4. Other Shadow Scythe's aren't reapers, she'd maybe be a slightly gloomy but intellectual girl elsewhere?
There's only one Beatrix across the multiverse, this has been established many times.
11. Midnight is reset to his more innocent, 'neutral' state, but with experience and wisdom of where hyper-stallion instinct could lead him. Again, Beatrix would step in to help him from going off the path if needed, he's pretty much the same as any other guy at a tiddy bar that's not shelling out lots of money to play with/drink directly from the cows?
12. Someone with know-how like Deinos could probably revert him back to how he was before, but otherwise he's pretty much like Shining Armor now, slightly more muscular/stronger than most stallions but otherwise normal?
Eclipsed has stabilized in her reality, so she's now independent from Beatrix's wish. However, Midnight's world remains dangerously unstable and has yet to finalize, so anything can potentially happen as Omen continues to mess with the multiverse?
16. Think of hyper-stallion Midnight as Super Saiyan 3, powerful but often impractical..
11720843 (4)) Ah that’s cool. So there would be more Shadows, and maybe other characters, but they aren’t important to the story.
So that means any story that’s written about Beatrix has to somehow tie to the entire lore of Lightendark?
(11) Well at least that’s good for him. He’s the casual Midnight in other stories like Riding In Zebrica Midnight.
(12) Well, Viscera sure fits that bill, and she gave Equinox Midnight’s DNA, so something could occur, I guess? But I’m pretty sure you won’t be writing about him failing once more, because then that’d be repetitive right? Not that I’m saying I’m against it, I’d find it humorous.
And while it’s good that Eclipsed is stabilized, I’m betting 10% odds that Midnight’s world will collapse onto itself, or become unrecognizable that either it has been completely abandoned like Shadow’s world or reverted back to its original setting.
Like instead of crashing the entire grid the computer would just revert back to factory settings.
(16) Yeah, Super Saiyan 3 is very impractical. Like, if Goku hadn’t been in the afterlife I imagine that Super Saiyan 3 would be really deadly towards his mortal body. Of course once he mastered it he had only stamina issues to deal with, but had he just acquired the form in a mortal body he probably would’ve actually died imo.
JUST LIKE MIDNIGHT!
Bruh that actually perfectly describes Midnight’s situation. Like, do you think if Midnight had actually had the time to control his body, say a year or two before PoW, do you think that he would’ve been able to lower the years lost and had more control and not fucked everything he could see?
12. I figured someone such as Varys could indeed reverse Midnight back to how he was, although as you say I'd find that repetitive and wouldn't choose that route for his arc without good reason.
16. Given more time and patience, Midnight would have been able to stabilize and control his power well, though awakening his hyper-stallion side in any way would shorten his lifespan, just not to such an excessive degree.
(12) And Viscera is Varys. But yeah it’d be repetitive, though a good reason to do that is because Fiery would like that (and Fiery is cool) and well why not screw over Midnight again and see the consequences of that lol.
Or maybe Midnight would soon be confronting a situation that could never be tackled by either Onoma and Hyper and he ends up using both, but he doesn’t lose control because being normal again allowed him a breather??
Idk lol. Imagine Super Saiyan Blue Kaikoen, with all the risks that implies. Because Super Saiyan Blue is stacking Super Saiyan God which has zero key leakage to Super Saiyan which is rage and then Kaikoen which is heightened senses and massive power at the cost of stability.
And Onoma + Hyper kind of sounds like it’d fit that bill?
(16) He probably would’ve been able to have gotten to the average Hyper Stallion age of 40 years old if it weren’t for the fact that he ended up blowing all of it away in just a single year! Kind of how Goku was blew so many of his hours in the living realm because he was using Super Saiyan 3
11720882 Haven't seen any of Dragon Ball Super outside of the Broly movie, but that all tracks. Interesting that you said Midnight is based more off Gohan, right? Because his demeanor always struck me as closer to Goku and Goten. Then again, you never finished Middy's story about his youth, your best tale imo.
11720888 Yeah I should honestly go back to writing that. But I'm first going to try and post a Halloween fic for funs! Yeah, Midnight was inspired by many things, Dragon Ball Z being a heavy factor, but I'm happy he's becoming his own thing!
Equinox is an idiot and Fiery a king soon to be facing the folly of not having a kingdom.
Folklore and Bloody Merry may have a nice reunion, and their sex might be quick now. But a focused Merry with an arsenal and Folklore with Iron is a nightmare to all Changelings. Lady She'ba is technically a Folklore villain really, so while Shub-Niggurath may not find Folklore as a threat her avatars, and specially the Cultist hideouts and Witch Covens definitely despite him and some even deem him a traitor believing that as a Ereen Warlock descended from Druids he should be on their side. (Though it was his ancestors that massacred all the Shub-Niggurath Druid Cannibals and convinced the High King of the era to use his armies to persecute them until they reached the sea where they met the same fate as the Fomorians.)
Iron Swords, Iron Chains, and Green Blood.
A good amount of conflict can arise between Beatrix and Folklore due to a stance on killing Oona. Though I think Beatrix would find it interesting to talk to Bloody Merry. Beatrix only knows Folklore as this strict teacher, but she doesn't realize that he is hunting for a future where the world doesn't end in cinders. That his world is doomed, and that he is cursed with that knowledge first. His actions might postpone it further more, but at the end of the day the best he can do is slow it all down...
11722924 While the iron rule doesn't apply to changelings in my lore, Arcanum's and Merry's reunion should indeed prove formidable. Maybe we'll see Merry and Beatrix interact soon?
Not sure where Notaponyperson is headed with She'ba, but Beatrix vs Arcanum would be interesting...
11722924 Hence, he's encouraging his soldiers to harass and rape any female body. Why reason with non-believers when you can raise an entirely new generation to dictate?
I respectfully disagree with that sentiment. Given how ancient and incomprehensibly powerful she is, She'ba wouldn't view anything as her enemy (which is why her character sheet has that section erased). Merely unindoctrinated minds in need of her 'motherly' guidance.
I will say, though, that conflict will certainly arise between Arcanum and others (not just Beatrix) should he propose killing Oona.
11723522 Adding to that, I imagine Fiery has imprisoned or executed most male unbelievers, while females are considered valuable commodities, hence he rarely puts them to death. (Although sometimes rage and paranoia get the better of him, such as with the two poor maids he torched.) While Shining Armor was locked in a standstill as the Crystal Empire slowly crumbled, Fiery's gamble is a winner takes all scenario that doesn't concern itself with any costs, fanatically convinced anything is permissible as he believes it will help his kind flourish in the future once he wins.
I don't see Equinox as an idiot myself. Foolish, yes, but I get the impression her savage experiences in the past have driven her kind if mad. I wonder if we'll learn how she lost an eye and was scarred.
11723522 I said "Avatars and Cultists" for a reason. Shub-Niggurath herself is in the busyness of guiding and enticing followers. But those followers even with power can be destroyed with sufficient violence and the right spells and weapons.
It isn't contradictory to Cosmic Horror considering that Conan the Barbarian is part of the Cthulhu Mythos, and examples of The Dunwich Horror, The Shadow Over Innsmouth, and The Whisperer in the Darkness demonstrates that Cultists and Physical Aliens despite being stronger and faster than humans as well as being immune to aging and disease can be killed with the Elder Sign and sufficient firepower.
Shun-Niggurath has no enemies because she is the origin. All organic life can be traced back to her if to go far enough in the history of the universe. Even before the Big Bang started by Azathoths dreaming.
11747046 Makes sense. Though there hasn't been any new chapters since October 11th so idk how many saw this cover art lol. I didn't even realize it was here until I randomly checked XD
Alright, it's time to read another chapter of PoW!
(1) So going back to a few chapters ago, Moonlight has been fucking with many studs and Cerise after she split from the herd right? So who would Moonlight be if she decided to just stay as friends with Midnight and no longer come back to Midnight's herd?
Like we know that Midnight and Cerise supposedly have two kids in the future, and even that is being questioned due to Sombra potentially knocking up Cerise and my own "vendetta" against Midnight (XD), but there's no child of Moonlight. So either Moonlight of the future got killed, her child just wasn't written into the story yet, or she settled with someone else.
(2) "We're really fucked up right?"
No shoot, you guys totally are. Oof.
Like, if I hadn't met you two and read Lightendark, Midnight and Moonlight would obviously not be part of it and they wouldn't have suffered the things they do here. But now that they're part of the story, not only did their original timeline get rewritten due to Beatrix's wish, but then it was rewritten again after the battle with the Burning King, and then their future counterparts are most likely dead.
So yeah, they're fucked on multiple levels.
(3) Hearing Midnight say that he won't waste his second life is both wholesome and hilarious, because there's almost no chance this story will give him or anyone for that matter a break. But I guess here's to hoping???
(4) I'm happy that Eclipsed has pretty much gotten over her initial shock when she realized she's just a copy of Cerise. Now she's joking about how she's just a year old due to how Beatrix's Prima Materia / Wishes work.
(5) Well I can't really blame the minotaurs for blaming Midnight for the fiasco, because he *was* meant to at least try and protect Cerise. Idk how effective he'd be against Penumbra controlled by Sombra if that somehow still occurred or against the Cult but he should've been able to at least try.
But no, he not only failed to protect, he *did* make that event happen and his Onoma that appeared in the end was underwhelming. Lightning's was so wicked it puts Midnight's 12 feet under XD
(6) Actually it is true that Beatrix's outfit has always been less than appropriate, always ready to get some "fun" action. I do wonder if in the future she'll have a different outfit, one that reflects her adventures but allows Aba to grow up in a more "modest" home? Like, as modest as Beatrix can go lol.
Scratch that, Beatrix will always be Beatrix, but it would still be cool seeing her in different clothes.
(7) Hmm, I would like to see some of that action between Beatrix and Dion when he becomes chieftain~
Like I said before though, I am worried about the safety of his twins if the absence of children from them implicates their deaths.
Though as later mentioned, maybe their infertility status is never lifted and thus they can never conceive.
(8) Honestly if anything Beatrix upon drinking that potion could be bigger. Because the only thing she really lost is the bounciness? But still, Beatrix being hot is a good Beatrix to read XD
(9) It's good to see Arcanum being happy about finally seeing Bloody Merry again. Another pair reunited, just like Zeloph and Shadow were.
(10) And of course as always, the clop is always top tier level! Even when short every moment of lust is very much appreciated.
I can see why She'Ba is so powerful though with so much sex going on.
(11) Honestly I question why Midnight is in the bar, because not only will it weaken his self control to sex, as it was a habit and the only thing stopping him is moral and emotional regret which can cave to lust, but Fiery's soldiers are literally there and can see him! Heck even Fiery himself might topple with Midnight and do something with him!
I now think the issue is that not only Midnight never has time to improve, they barely give him any time at all and automatically throw him into the next situation thinking he'll get better. Cerise, Moonlight, and Midnight all thought he could hold it in if he tried and well he just physically couldn't. But if from the get go they all realize that they should at least try and minimize any risks and teach him how to self control himself without needing to fuck a mare (if it's even possible) or at least further bond with him through sex, then so much pain could've been avoided. Maybe.
Obviously Midnight is the one mainly at fault but I can see his original argument as to why he's not the only one to blame, even if the way he put it was as bad as rolling a 1 on a d20.
Like c'mon Moonlight, you told Midnight you'd watch over and then you immediately leave him in order to deal with your own mess. -.-
You're going to sacrifice his sanity and another friendship point.
(12) … why is Beatrix sounding so weird??? Like so weird, so meta. That his life is just all possibilities of him merged into one (which I can make canon if I write his origin story like that lol!)
And of course Midnight is now horny for Beatrix *facepalm*
And now Midnight is speaking weird? Like yeah I expected him to cave quick, but not *this* quickly. We're definitely in a nightmare, whose is it though? Beatrix or Midnight?
It's Beatrix's. ._.
(13) Honestly, why can't our characters just exist in peace? I know that their histories literally prevent them from doing so but if we just placed them into a blank room with no threats and just paradise, wouldn't that be good for them?
I'm happy that they're fighting for that better life but it pains me to see how much they're suffering.
Actually I wonder what would happen if a story written about them being stuck in their own paradise would occur and how long they'd realize it's fake. It's Paradise 2 but with the main cast.
Though it probably won't make sense because again they're already fighting for that world. Maybe if somebody programmed it so that they ended up living an entirely separate life inside that world? Like Eclipsed was "born" in only a year but had an entire backstory of 18 years. So something like that.
Idk, just throwing this because I really wished they had just lived normal lives.
(14) But… I guess Midnight did survive against the lust (for now! If he messes up, and he will, I'll chant his sacrifice lol XD).
Only because it was Beatrix's nightmare.
(15) Wait wait wait, when did Beatrix and Moxxi have that scene? What chapter? What am I missing?! XD
I'm sure I read it, I just forgot
(16) Was Wispy actually considering fucking Midnight? Glad he dodged that bullet! Phew!
Fun to see that cock potion again though!
(17) So now without the Necronomicon, over reliance on the Demiurge could consume Beatrix?
Beatrix *was* present for Future Aba right? You're not telling me she ended up getting corrupted in her fight against Alma, leading the "good caring" Omen to protect Future Oona before the betrayal
(18) Midnight's character sheet will be quite interesting to read considering he's had one of the most fluctuating power levels in the entire series! From full nelsoning Shadow and dealing high physical damage to becoming the weakest of the group to now gaining magic attack. He's very unique.
(19) Boy that smile Midnight got when he told Fiery that he no longer is a Hyper Stallion would be totally worth any pain he got henceforth.
Until maybe Equinox arrives with his serum and reinjects his DNA back into his systems? Idk where she is anymore.
(20) Finally the entire group is now reunited as they chase off Fiery! Oh boy is he now going to be *very* angry. "Kakarot" / Goku Level Angry.
(21) XD. Beatrix just had to comment on Shadow's upgraded cup size! While Beatrix lost her's a bit, Shadow's went up!
(22) Iclyn speaks facts. Unfortunately, nobody is truly free from lust. That's why She'Ba is OP! Lust rules this world!
(23) The other Midnights, especially those with "different rules", laugh at Lightendark Midnight for not being able to challenge a minotaur in size.
Yeah Moonlight is now getting intimate with Moon Hammer which I strangely approve of! And I like how Moon Hammer's cock reveal is a parallel to how Midnight's semi hard rivaled Dion's during the pool scene.
It's sounding like he's a 20. Wonder how big Andrei the Trident dragon was. 30?
Nothing that Hyper Size rules can't challenge though! XD
But seriously, Midnight is *really* having the short stick (pun not intended) if it sounds like his Hyper size here is smaller than most Midnights. I think the poll for Riding In Zebrica had him at 27? 18? Idk if people understood how the poll worked.
(24) Yeah I love that scene between Moonlight and Moon Hammer with Marathyssa joining in! Perfect!
(25) Tuning back to Fiery, yeah he's really angry. He's getting angry towards everyone, all of these failures, all of these failed plans, they're getting to him. He's not a Sombra in terms that all he does is cool, even the bad stuff. Fiery is just angry and I find that amusing but I'm also disappointed when he's trying to hurt others.
And now Equinox is back.
What I find so funny is even after humiliating her and fucking his pent up cum into her, Fiery is still so mad to not realize that hey! She brought the Hyper Stallion booster from Midnight! And she's they're best spy!
She can literally go back to Hammerfall and make Midnight a Hyper Stallion again!
And with an Onoma he'll-
Still most likely fail because it's what? Him against 7 people with Onomas, and many of them top tier? But perhaps Hyper Strength and an Elemental Onoma could do enough damage that Fiery's plan could still work and his breeder project could commence, if Fiery wasn't always so mad that he could never come up with that plan! At least for now.
Or at least if he wasn't angry he could have kept his allies close and his enemies closer.
Like, how many times has he sabotaged himself with his own rage? If he had waited, then maybe he could've injected Midnight with the serum and caused severe damage to the camp, but he's too mad to calculate.
(26) Anyways I'm happy that I read this chapter! It was really fun and I hope to read the next chapter soon!
11720154
1. For now, Moonlight is trying to figure out who she wants to be with, since she still loves Midnight and Cerise, but they're also a reminder of the pain she's suffered. Meanwhile, Moon Hammer lets her escape the pain, but she's also still playing second fiddle to other women, so she remains undecided.
4. Indeed, Eclipsed's existential crisis over what she is mostly took place in the Cyberverse stories. In a sense she's more a warped, caricatured perception of how Beatrix perceives Cerise; Eclipsed is younger and more innocent/cheery/a little more shapely, yet Eclipsed didn't spend her life mostly cooped up in a pyramid but instead traveled her city putting on concerts and becoming a vigilante in secret to protect people from crime.
5. Omen is mainly to blame for Cerise's crystal shield falling, but of course most don't know that so blame tends to fall on Midnight since he's sworn to protect his wife.
6. Nota's come up with designs for alternative outfits for Beatrix that are more modest, maybe we'll see them eventually?
11. Basically, Moonlight hopes that Midnight can build tolerance. Lust is fine but not when it becomes a self-destructive addiction, which funny enough Moonlight is also struggling with due to depression.
12. Beatrix's crush on Midnight has never fully went away; she intended to help build his tolerance with some teasing, spaced out with a fantasy, which spun out of control due to Omen invading it. Of course, she'd never want to hurt him, Moonie, or Cerise.
14. Yep, Midnight felt some 'innocent' lust with Beatrix's boobs in his face, but maintained self-control as he continues to mature.
15. It was in The Bewitching Hour, can't recall which chapter?
16. Wispy was definitely looking for a potential hookup but she's pretty picky sometimes: she'd certainly find Middy fun to tease, at the least!
17. Yes, like with Spiderman's symbiote, the Demiurge could permanently bond with and alter Beatrix, to the point she might be overwhelmed by darkness. Hell, it might be why she almost surrendered to lust around Midnight as she wanted to jump his bones...
26. Thank you! Sadly the scene of Cerise and Chrysalis had to be cut since this was another long chapter, we'll see what they're up to next time!
11720154
1) Only Abadonna knows that answer 🤷
6) Perhaps in the future, she'll dress up more modestly!
7) It's been a while since they got some action together, I'll admit (They were originally going to fuck in U&A before some alterations). They'll likely give in to temptation sooner or later
13) What you're describing is called a Lotus-Eater Machine. Something Omen is very capable of doing.
15) The Neon Demon chapter from The Bewitching Hour.
16) Wispy's feeling a little sour after Triad's familiar. She'll try anything that isn't abhorrently monstrous.
17) It's likely Beatrix will expunge the Demiurge in a later chapter. It's also likely it may find a more suitable host.
18) Actually, his will be pretty straightforward.
25) Hard to have patience when your world threatens to fall apart at any moment.
11720458
(1) That is true XD
Spill the beans Aba!
(6) Well that would be interesting to see.
(7) Another interesting thing to see. Dion x Beatrix rocks!
(13) The Lotus-Eater? So we've already seen it before? And it's been used before?
(15) Ah cool. I might check that chapter again.
(16) Good thing Midnight dodged a bullet there by leaving. He was very close to failing instantly, if the nightmare Beatrix had was fake but real IRL or if he had stayed for longer.
Causing fucking Beatrix might be something he'd do??? Like they've never actually fucked with each other, might never in this lore. I wonder if that should be held the same if I ever decided to write Beatrix in a story or mine.
(17) Like who? Oona who's starting to take on some shadows on her back? Like Aba mentioned something wrong happening during the battle so it could be anything.
I'm currently going through many theories as to how Oona could become She'Ba before considering alternatives.
(18) cool.
Ya know apart from the stats bar, another cool idea would've been a Pentagon stats like from UnOrdinary. And of course She'Ba would form a demonic star.
(25) That is very true.
What do you think of Thunder Storm in your mind? How would you have interpreted him and how he would've led the war instead of Shining and Fiery?
(-) Also true Hyper size rules XD
11720287
(1) Very interesting. Like at least she's trying new things. And her scene with Moon Hammer was very well written! I found it very hot!
(4) Well that sounds interesting. A alt version of Midnight wouldn't exist because Midnight is already that alt version, but who else could end up having an alt?
(5) That's true, but I'm siding with the locals and blaming Midnight too! XD
(6) That'd be cool. Like she probably did use different clothes for Midnight's wedding, right???
(11) Like, thankfully it succeeded, but imagine if that nightmare wasn't real and Midnight and Beatrix did end up fucking! Quickest fail in history!
Like, I know he has to develop tolerance but once again they're throwing Midnight into situations too fast. It's a good thing he managed to actually control himself, regret is a powerful limiter, but I wouldn't have wanted to risk my friend falling again by putting him in a bar full of topless mares with massive tits.
It doesn't compute.
(12) I know she doesn't want to hurt anybody. But honestly I'm betting that if Beatrix didn't space out, they definitely would have fucked. She wanted some plowing that night (and she got it with Wispy) and her own lust wouldn't have helped in controlling Midnight's.
(14) I wouldn't call it maturing yet, just being lucky to have dodged many many bullets in that single night.
(15) Ah so it was in that story. Might check again.
(16) But what if she did want to test his Hyper size? Which might have weakened a bit??? Did he still retain his size, at least while not transformed? Otherwise he's probably now as big as Dion since before his half erect size was almost bigger than Dion's full one.
Just like Moon Hammer's!
Actually I do find it funny that due to our different rules, Midnight has once again gotten the short stick because Hyper Stallions in my AUs are way more OP in terms of size. We're talking actual horse cock size!
(17) Well she's always wanted to fuck every second she can, so maybe upon it's removal she no longer has that insatiable lust? Which would be good for her family with Oona and Aba.
Idk if Oona's father would approve of Beatrix getting wild with the citizens if she's meant to be tied to Oona. Like he ain't happy that Beatrix isn't there to protect Oona even if she is actually being actively delayed by multiple things!
(26) Oh dear. Hearing Chrysalis and Cerise together does not bode good news. But either ways I can't wait for that chapter!
(-) Fiery and his men are still near Hammerfall right? But they're now packing right? Could it be possible that once Fiery has cooled down, he might order Equinox to inject Midnight again?
Like, if he ever cools down and thinks of that possibility. Like it'd be funny as hell to me if Midnight immediately falls to lust again.
11720635
4. Hard to say, I'm very cautious about alternatives because they can cheapen the original and lower the stakes if a character can be replaced. However, in Eclipsed's case I've used her to try and explore Cerise from a different angle, and endeavoured to give her slightly different quirks/style.
6. Yep, Beatrix will generally respect different cultures unless she morally opposes them, so she'd tone it down for a close friend's wedding!
11. Well, topless cow women, but Beatrix would agree with Moonlight that Middy needs to learn control!
12. Nah, Beatrix has also gotten much better at controlling herself over time, and wouldn't dare come between Cerise's relationship unless Middy would die without her sexing him up. She'd step in to correct him if he stepped out of line, but she still enjoys teasing and flirting with him!
16. Like Shining Armor with his repressed hyper-stallion gene, Midnight's pretty big but not insane.
(-) Yeah, Fiery and co aren't that far away, outside the guard towers Moon Hammer set up but close enough to mount an invasion if they wanted.
11720776
(4) Well even if an alternative of Shadow existed, she'd never be able to replace her original so I think just encountering an alt of her would be fine.
Like now Lightendark Midnight is apparently a combination of all possibilities of Midnight according to Beatrix, so maybe she encounters a different possibility of him.
It'd be funny though if Beatrix and Midnight never fucked even if they encounter alternatives of each other. It's just impossible.
(6) cool.
(11) If I were inside Lightendark, I would make sure Midnight has time to learn control. I wouldn't throw him into a bar. The girls around him are already a tease, he doesn't need to see huge tits that'll cause him to become horny.
And as we saw, he did end up bumping into Fiery's men, but at the same time he was able to protect Moonlight. So I guess it was a good thing he went?
Idk, this world constantly throws Midnight and co into situations they sometimes can't handle and when they crack it's a disaster. Just give the OCs a break lol.
(12) Well at least Midnight doesn't need sex to live anymore.
Like his Hyper side is fully repressed forever right? Unless too much sex awakens it again? Like it'd be hard considering he's conscious of his actions, but if Fiery just drugged him and made him fuck, maybe the Hyper Stallion could be reawakened?
Now that I think about it, the Necronomicon being destroyed makes things a bit confusing. What do we mean when his Hyper Stallion is gone? Like if his age was returned because he was never born as a Hyper Stallion to begin with because Beatrix's wish no longer is valid, then shouldn't a timeline correction be catching up to our heroes again?
His father would be Thunder again, any Hyper Stallion DNA would cease to exist from his timeline, and parts of the timeline would be changed.
And yet he's still a suppressed Hyper Stallion? Does it take time for the timeline to catch up or does this count as a permanent thing? Then if it was permanent then should the damage he had done to himself also been permanent? He damaged his soul!
Though that means Eclipsed and those made by Beatrix's wish could be at risk of fading due to the timeline catching up. Her wishes might be powered by her Prima Materia so once it runs out, all of that energy will come colliding with the present?
(16) I'm honestly thinking that the definition of Hyper Stallion is very loose. If a Hyper Stallion were truly the best and more powerful studs, they'd need to be very massive, like very massive to keep their herd.
But Midnight isn't the biggest, he's being owned by minotaurs and I imagine a good enough zebra could probably defeat him in size. In Riding in Zebrica though, Midnight is so big he broke condoms meant for the biggest of zebras, and zebras are on average bigger than Equestrians. That is the definition of a Hyper Stallion.
And a friend offered the idea that if a stallion trained enough, they could become even bigger!
But with Lightendark Midnight he doesn't have that definition. I think Zeloph's statement that Midnight just simply got a very quick boost in strength and size is accurate. They are stronger in order to fight off those that could steal their mares, instead of solely compensating it with addicting cum and cock size (like what Moon Hammer has and what RIZ Midnight's have).
…
I just realized why I made the title Riding in Zebrica. Acronym is RIZ. Midnight got some rizz! XD
But anyways they in turn become stressed really fast, break their souls, and die very young.
I imagine you could be bigger than a Hyper Stallion even as an Equestrian (not a different race like Moon Hammer) but not be a Hyper Stallion. But once you are, you might have a huge cock by default and immense strength and sex stamina but you're going to be running out of fumes soon if you push yourself too much.
And boy did Midnight push himself. He practically wasted his entire lifetime in just a year depending on how long it was from Manor to now.
(-) Or send Equinox to make Midnight Hyper again. Fiery kinda too angry to think lol.
11720829
4. Other Shadow Scythe's aren't reapers, she'd maybe be a slightly gloomy but intellectual girl elsewhere?
There's only one Beatrix across the multiverse, this has been established many times.
11. Midnight is reset to his more innocent, 'neutral' state, but with experience and wisdom of where hyper-stallion instinct could lead him. Again, Beatrix would step in to help him from going off the path if needed, he's pretty much the same as any other guy at a tiddy bar that's not shelling out lots of money to play with/drink directly from the cows?
12. Someone with know-how like Deinos could probably revert him back to how he was before, but otherwise he's pretty much like Shining Armor now, slightly more muscular/stronger than most stallions but otherwise normal?
Eclipsed has stabilized in her reality, so she's now independent from Beatrix's wish. However, Midnight's world remains dangerously unstable and has yet to finalize, so anything can potentially happen as Omen continues to mess with the multiverse?
16. Think of hyper-stallion Midnight as Super Saiyan 3, powerful but often impractical..
11720843
(4)) Ah that’s cool. So there would be more Shadows, and maybe other characters, but they aren’t important to the story.
So that means any story that’s written about Beatrix has to somehow tie to the entire lore of Lightendark?
(11) Well at least that’s good for him. He’s the casual Midnight in other stories like Riding In Zebrica Midnight.
(12) Well, Viscera sure fits that bill, and she gave Equinox Midnight’s DNA, so something could occur, I guess? But I’m pretty sure you won’t be writing about him failing once more, because then that’d be repetitive right? Not that I’m saying I’m against it, I’d find it humorous.
And while it’s good that Eclipsed is stabilized, I’m betting 10% odds that Midnight’s world will collapse onto itself, or become unrecognizable that either it has been completely abandoned like Shadow’s world or reverted back to its original setting.
Like instead of crashing the entire grid the computer would just revert back to factory settings.
(16) Yeah, Super Saiyan 3 is very impractical. Like, if Goku hadn’t been in the afterlife I imagine that Super Saiyan 3 would be really deadly towards his mortal body. Of course once he mastered it he had only stamina issues to deal with, but had he just acquired the form in a mortal body he probably would’ve actually died imo.
JUST LIKE MIDNIGHT!
Bruh that actually perfectly describes Midnight’s situation. Like, do you think if Midnight had actually had the time to control his body, say a year or two before PoW, do you think that he would’ve been able to lower the years lost and had more control and not fucked everything he could see?
11720870
4. Pretty much yes to all that.
12. I figured someone such as Varys could indeed reverse Midnight back to how he was, although as you say I'd find that repetitive and wouldn't choose that route for his arc without good reason.
16. Given more time and patience, Midnight would have been able to stabilize and control his power well, though awakening his hyper-stallion side in any way would shorten his lifespan, just not to such an excessive degree.
11720875
(4)) That’s cool.
(12) And Viscera is Varys. But yeah it’d be repetitive, though a good reason to do that is because Fiery would like that (and Fiery is cool) and well why not screw over Midnight again and see the consequences of that lol.
Or maybe Midnight would soon be confronting a situation that could never be tackled by either Onoma and Hyper and he ends up using both, but he doesn’t lose control because being normal again allowed him a breather??
Idk lol. Imagine Super Saiyan Blue Kaikoen, with all the risks that implies. Because Super Saiyan Blue is stacking Super Saiyan God which has zero key leakage to Super Saiyan which is rage and then Kaikoen which is heightened senses and massive power at the cost of stability.
And Onoma + Hyper kind of sounds like it’d fit that bill?
(16) He probably would’ve been able to have gotten to the average Hyper Stallion age of 40 years old if it weren’t for the fact that he ended up blowing all of it away in just a single year! Kind of how Goku was blew so many of his hours in the living realm because he was using Super Saiyan 3
Wow the parallels are blowing my mind.
11720882
Haven't seen any of Dragon Ball Super outside of the Broly movie, but that all tracks. Interesting that you said Midnight is based more off Gohan, right? Because his demeanor always struck me as closer to Goku and Goten. Then again, you never finished Middy's story about his youth, your best tale imo.
11720888
Yeah I should honestly go back to writing that. But I'm first going to try and post a Halloween fic for funs!
Yeah, Midnight was inspired by many things, Dragon Ball Z being a heavy factor, but I'm happy he's becoming his own thing!
you took quite the work with this new chapter length, eh?
11721103
Yep, probably would've been our longest chapter ever had the Cerise/Chrysalis scene made the cut!
11721113
okay
Equinox is an idiot and Fiery a king soon to be facing the folly of not having a kingdom.
Folklore and Bloody Merry may have a nice reunion, and their sex might be quick now. But a focused Merry with an arsenal and Folklore with Iron is a nightmare to all Changelings. Lady She'ba is technically a Folklore villain really, so while Shub-Niggurath may not find Folklore as a threat her avatars, and specially the Cultist hideouts and Witch Covens definitely despite him and some even deem him a traitor believing that as a Ereen Warlock descended from Druids he should be on their side. (Though it was his ancestors that massacred all the Shub-Niggurath Druid Cannibals and convinced the High King of the era to use his armies to persecute them until they reached the sea where they met the same fate as the Fomorians.)
Iron Swords, Iron Chains, and Green Blood.
A good amount of conflict can arise between Beatrix and Folklore due to a stance on killing Oona. Though I think Beatrix would find it interesting to talk to Bloody Merry. Beatrix only knows Folklore as this strict teacher, but she doesn't realize that he is hunting for a future where the world doesn't end in cinders. That his world is doomed, and that he is cursed with that knowledge first. His actions might postpone it further more, but at the end of the day the best he can do is slow it all down...
11722924
While the iron rule doesn't apply to changelings in my lore, Arcanum's and Merry's reunion should indeed prove formidable. Maybe we'll see Merry and Beatrix interact soon?
Not sure where Notaponyperson is headed with She'ba, but Beatrix vs Arcanum would be interesting...
11722924
Hence, he's encouraging his soldiers to harass and rape any female body. Why reason with non-believers when you can raise an entirely new generation to dictate?
I respectfully disagree with that sentiment. Given how ancient and incomprehensibly powerful she is, She'ba wouldn't view anything as her enemy (which is why her character sheet has that section erased). Merely unindoctrinated minds in need of her 'motherly' guidance.
I will say, though, that conflict will certainly arise between Arcanum and others (not just Beatrix) should he propose killing Oona.
11723522
Adding to that, I imagine Fiery has imprisoned or executed most male unbelievers, while females are considered valuable commodities, hence he rarely puts them to death. (Although sometimes rage and paranoia get the better of him, such as with the two poor maids he torched.) While Shining Armor was locked in a standstill as the Crystal Empire slowly crumbled, Fiery's gamble is a winner takes all scenario that doesn't concern itself with any costs, fanatically convinced anything is permissible as he believes it will help his kind flourish in the future once he wins.
I don't see Equinox as an idiot myself. Foolish, yes, but I get the impression her savage experiences in the past have driven her kind if mad. I wonder if we'll learn how she lost an eye and was scarred.
11723522
I said "Avatars and Cultists" for a reason. Shub-Niggurath herself is in the busyness of guiding and enticing followers. But those followers even with power can be destroyed with sufficient violence and the right spells and weapons.
It isn't contradictory to Cosmic Horror considering that Conan the Barbarian is part of the Cthulhu Mythos, and examples of The Dunwich Horror, The Shadow Over Innsmouth, and The Whisperer in the Darkness demonstrates that Cultists and Physical Aliens despite being stronger and faster than humans as well as being immune to aging and disease can be killed with the Elder Sign and sufficient firepower.
Shun-Niggurath has no enemies because she is the origin. All organic life can be traced back to her if to go far enough in the history of the universe. Even before the Big Bang started by Azathoths dreaming.
I wonder what December’s art cover gonna look like lmao.
11738619
Hehehe, Iclyn would fit!
11738657
Bruh this story has gone through like 7 cover arts or something lol. XD
11746849
What can I say? I'm bored and always hope more people will check our stories out!
11747046
Makes sense. Though there hasn't been any new chapters since October 11th so idk how many saw this cover art lol. I didn't even realize it was here until I randomly checked XD
11747092
Next chapter should be another super long one!
11747114
Nice!
