Huh. What would drive an undead creature to seek out a god of life? I can't imagine this will be a one-time occurance
Nice
Glad to hear you're spreading democracy
I still enjoy every chapter you write, regardless of its content. You are the reason i look forward to Mondays every week.
Maybe he can go to the moon and jump start life there? that would be cool and he could make a moon base there calling it moon base Armstrong.
unfortunately, there's always that one guy in any crowd. dont let something like that get to you. thank you for your hard work LiveFreeOrDie, you make any monday much more tolerable.
If only the servers weren't at full capacity everytime...
What you are doing is good, thank you for sharing it with us. Keep up the good work.
All the best and enjoy your gaming.
Understand about a single comment getting under your skin. It’s usually something that in retrospect doesn’t even matter, too, it just got stuck in your craw somehow.
As for me, I’m going to enjoy giving out a few cups of liber-TEA later.
The conflict, minor as it was in the context of this fic, was a nice change of pace. Gave just enough pep to make the first bit of the chapter very interesting from a world building standpoint
Hey dude. keep up the good work. As for the steam games, democracy thanks you for your patriotic duties being carried out in a timely manner.
As for the comments. It's the internet, sadly it happens.
I for one have been struggling with lots of anxiety and panic attacks and used your story as an escape or way to calm down as I read through it over the last month or so. You do make a difference just writing this story. Thank you.
I think the quality was fine. Just as enjoyable as ever, so don't be too hard yourself. We're our own worst critics as it's said.

You’re probably right about that. It is a question that merits exploring.
Especially whether or not exterminating the vampire pony was justified. While Cure made the right call in sounding the alarm, informing Celestia, and letting the trained professionals handle it the extermination was handled without ascertaining motive.
It is possible Celestia’s suspicions were correct. It is also possible the vampire pony could have been seeking help for something. Like no longer wanting to drink blood and being able to walk around in the sun.
Unfortunately we do not know. And that lack of knowledge may figurative come back to bite Cure in the butt.
As for the comment, we can probably guess which one it was. However there is no point in doing so.
We have all been there where a single comment on a passion project just crawls under your skin and gnaws at you. It is not a pleasant feeling, but we are all here for you. We wouldn’t be reading if we didn’t enjoy it.
Your work is fantastic and a ton of fun. :)
Well, I assume they're asking if it'll turn into some sort of action drama or something, because generally when a story sets up for combat so heavily, it'll be used in a big way before the end. Yanno, that whole 'rule' where if a pistol is mentioned to be lying around in the first act, it's gonna be used by the third
I liked this chapter, it was neat world building to see that there are real cryptids in your world.
I like the SoL though, so don't feel pressured for that "shift", lol
Pft, "sorry for the quality" while giving us freaking vamponies? You're good, don't worry : )
Still... I'm guessing undead are literally antithetical to Cure's domain, that'll explain his total lack of interest in them. I was hoping to get some kind of XCOM autopsy report : )
Eh, I'd say cows, buffalo and donkeys have it worse.
I could see a vampire drooling over Cure, much in the same way a changing drools over Cadenza; The Princess/Prince of food. One is an endless buffet of love and the other is an endless buffet of blood.
That said... a vampire??? Really? I did NOT have that on my Cure Wave bingo card. Not even close.
(I still say Cure would absolutely dominate a vampire in a 1-on-1 fight. Even if it was somehow faster Cure would only need it to get within melee range and grapple. The fight's all but over at that point as Cure takes it apart like a wet pinata)
p.s. Celestia must have been spying on Cure's memories in the astral plane to get the idea for that Baltimare Guard's HQ. It looks too much like some movie set or an anime scene of an advanced "Intelligence Headquarters".
Motivation is important to all writers, so I'll give you as much as I can, I love you author!
1 Really liked the character growth you set up with Cure. He finally accepts the fact that he is not ready to whip anything that shows up on his own, (yet).
I’m a little sad Cure didn’t get to talk to the vampony before the paladins arrived, but I understand his reasoning. A creature that potentially possesses mind control magic is currently beyond his level. However, if it found him at the training area, it could have found him at the hospital or at home and just as easily left a message if it was benevolent… I assume. It could have also been rightfully very scared of contacting an alicorn because of the Princesses’ past dealings with them. Tough choices all around. I’m a little concerned about if this one was a scout to test for any stable lines of communication or if the Changelings were observing the incident.
Extending Cure’s “world tree” throughout the Celestial Sea is an interesting prospect. He could discover things below the floor that nopony would ever learn: creatures, mineral deposits, geological features, sunken treasures, potentially seaponies and Seaquestria, lost cities / classic fantasy dungeons… Can cure use his plant to aid in casting Transportation? He could just pop across the ocean whenever.
Good to know Emerald didn’t have any functional problems with Mr Haze’s upgrades. Solar’s going to miss the guard competition.
A vampire? Did not see that coming.... the scene with the savvy empress was adorable. And exactly the kind of shenanigans I would get up to with my little sister.
Death by aggressively comforting dam snuggles
[credits roll]
i think the chapter was awesome and i could not tell any drop in quality you proclaim
that villain of the week came out of nowhere , dam what an ugly creature
I laughed at the castle scene.
Not sure how to parse that one, among perhaps?
Puppet or intentional verbal inflection?
If you need to take a break, do so. Writing should be a hobby, not a job. If you need time, don't hesitate to tell us.
With the quality of writing you've consistently put out I genuinely support you taking the needed time to rest and relax.
May your words be many and your blocks few.
Pupput to puppet

I honestly doubt they are ponies, just undead leech-things that use a parasite to reproduce themselves by killing the host.
And have a preference for pony hosts.
That sounds more like a bioweapon from a salty necrotical mage that hated ponies than anything.
Just LOVE the sand castle and Empress Venture. Cure can still be a bit of a foal.
I also have to hope the vampony was truly a threat and not something we will later discover a letter to Serpentus or a journal expressing a desire to be “cured” or an offspring to be raised
Don’t let the hater’s get to you LFOD, I am loving your work just as it is. A true slice of life story is a slow burn. Kinda like the guard duties and real life combat; 90% sheer boredom, 9% hard work and 1% absolute terror. And that 1% will always be a surprise. Cure’s dealt with muggers, thieves, kidnappers, magical accidents and now a Vampony. There’s plenty of “real world” adventure for a SoL. (The 90% boredom is well reflected too in that we are aware of the daily routine Cure handles, but we as readers don’t have to slog through every bath, board game, bedtime or meal the family partakes in)
Despite your hardship with this chapter it's still good. Would have liked to see more with the vamp. And thought we almost had a lovely bug there.. but overall a good chapter.
Any games you would recommend?
There was a part of the chapter that felt a bit incomplete, around were the enhancements hapened. But it felt more like the patient confidentiality kicked in harder than anything else. I think that could be made into the actual point of it with a few tweaks.
Honestly, I don't usually comment on stories. But I wanted to bring a bit of perspective, something that might be overlooked. Beside horny chimps that are chomping at the bit for harem foal debauchery or who knows what else. I think this can be described as a good phenomenon that you should not necessarily engage with.
Any good stories will spawn fanfics. See Fallout Equestria, or The Sweetie Chronicles. So, to me, it means you have crafted a sufficiently complete world. One interesting enough that it makes people want to change it. I would say this can be taken as a compliment.
This is a compliment I wanted to extend to you regardless, since I have already seen people credit your story as the starting point of their work.
My plea, which I fully ask that you ignore at your convenience, is that you continue writing Cure' story. Not even your story, but his. If his trials take him into sex, so be it, but never at the insistance of the readers... Because then it won't be his story and I specifically want to read this story.
One expectation the story created, because I am invested heavily in the character and story, is that I expect Cure to be successful at life, which includes his relationships. So whoever he will end up with, I would like to see them making eachother happy. For me, this includes sex and having kids. But the details of that have to make narative sense, and I trust you to do that. If the last milion words are anything to go by, there won't be issues.
On a lighter note, you better get Celestia a partner, she needs companionship. Otherwise I will write a fanfic to your fic and marry her to all royal guards by technicallity. :)

Depends on the interpretation of Vampire LFOD works with. It’ll be interesting.
*Among
All hail Empress Savvy Venture the First, Champion of the House of Vita, Heir Apparent to Prince Serpentus, and Queen of the Stony Throne. Long may she reign.

I could not for the life of me figure out what that was supposed to say, but that makes so much sense.
11829471
But they are undead to begin with. How could Cure help them with anything? His ability is only working on the living things.
11829727
…Cure’s special talent is Biomanipulation. His abilities work on most organic and inorganic (via transmutation) matter.
More to the point, Cure is the Alicorn of Life. To date we know he’s performed at least 12 resurrections on stillborn (aka dead) foals.
He could probably figure it out.
Heck, this chapter states outright that Cure could end all life on the planet and then rebuild it all from scratch if he so chose.
Dealing with the undead is probably child’s play compared to that…
…
…and Cure is a literal child. This will be fun!
Don’t let anyone try and change the path you want your story to go down. Even if you’re not sure where this will end up, Cure’s story will be what you want it to be.
Now I’m terms of the chapter the only things I noticed that ‘differed’ was the quick gloss over of the vampire (hope we get to see a more direct interaction) and the enchantments that Solar got but that could be written as more patient confidentiality than usual.
Love to see when your updates wether they be a chapter or just a “here’s what’s goin on”
Edit: Thinking more about though yeah I guess this chapter felt a little ‘gloss over’ idk how to word it lol. Still good just different pacing.
Definitely a reference to me there. First of all, I apologise.
I actually really do love this fic a lot and I think partly I was almost paranoid it could devolve as some other fics have. Such was fueled both by past experiences with other fics and the concerns a couple other friends of mine have made known to me.
Believe it or not but I've actually spent hours defending this fics use of adult themes from others and I think after some time a bit of doubt slipped in. I'd tried in the comments to make clear I do not myself think it would devolve into some kind of fetish fic and that I would not particularly want or expect the author to change anything about how he currently writes.
What I wanted from this was to make known some of the concerns friends of mine have had and I think some kind of reinforcement of my initial and current belief. Said belief being that the choices made are purely thematic and there to provide entertainment and, or contrast.
I read this fic each week on release before bed and I really have enjoyed most if not all of it. I assure the author I had purely innocent if not particularly well thought out intentions.
I really do hope I do not cause further discouragement and, or frustration as I had no intention of doing so.
Apologies.
Also as a side-note Helldivers 2 is an excellent game although the recent server issues have been a bit if a nuisance. Otherwise, 10/10.
"Friendly Fire Isn't."
These make me look forward to Mondays, my dude. That said if you think it needs another week in the oven, you’re the author. Do what you gotta do to be satisfied with your work
Seems fine to me. And the undead section gives me ideas.
I am so glad that you added some more conflict to the story. I am loving the problems and resolutions you come up with. Thank you so much
Btw
Can you recommend some of you favorite stories with us. Been looking for more stories but they are hard to find
> As far as he’s concerned, it’s zebras, griffons, hippogriffs that get the short end of the stick. While their life expectancy is roughly the equivalent of a pony’s, they completely miss out on the advantages that marks of destiny convey
Zecora has a cutie mark.

When i first read about that i was thinking that they wanted to be brought back to life and were actually a law abiding citizen that lived off the blood banks or something.
11829892
I thought canonically that was a tattoo?
I quite liked it.
That is a big thing to note. Cure is The Backup Plan. It's pretty cool, a tremendous burden in some ways, and likely won't matter, but he could redo it all.
And I'm a big fan of the vampire stuff. How it was confronted, executed, and it's implications. This tells us that yes, there are still plenty of things and monsters out there we've never heard off, and might never still. And cool, badass lore about the Princesses.
Another great chapter.
Sometimes when you look at a project too long, you end up noticing everything wrong with it, instead of everything that's right.
I build Halo armour out of EVA Foam, and after 3-4 weeks of free time working on a component, I absolutely hate it.
It's not until I post a progress report to my group chat that I realise it's actually a lot better than I thought.
Sometimes, you just need to step away, take a breather, and do something FUN for a bit, to recharge that creative juice.
Unless you are Cure Wave. Then you can probably setup a small biofactory in the corner that just generates Creative Juice. Such OP Cow Manure (in a good way).
Cure little sisters are gonna be so spoiled, lol.
It's okay.
Writing so much and to a high level of quality is challenging. This chapter, even if you feel that way about it, is still good and fun. Myself and likely vast majority of readers are happy with what you are doing, don't feel pressured by people. Thought I know that is harder said than done.
The short scene behind the house was utterly adorable and the opening part was a fun lil tidbit of deeper world building
