Not That Anon


Yep, definitely not him.

Ancient pony legends say that the Royal Sisters came from the west. Until now, the long and dangerous voyage stopped anypony from attempting to validate those claims. But when Luna’s banishment puts an end to the rebellion, a group of her most devoted subjects sets out to help their Princess in any way they can, even if it means traveling to places where no bat has traveled before and where the harmonious laws of reality are suggestions at best.

Shaping up very nicely.
Bit of a Middle Earth influence dashed with Cthulu perhaps?

Thanks! Good catch, Tolkien and Lovecraft are probably the two most influential authors for me and that influence is bound to be noticeable in the majority of my stories.
That said, "From the West..." was primarily inspired by the Sunless Sea. It's not a crossover, mind you, but some of the general themes in this fic can be traced back to that game's extensive (300k words) story.

... well, this should be interesting. Though a proper banshee was less ghost and more a spirit that warned of impending death.

And yes, sailors as a whole are superstitious. Comes with living and working in the least-understood area of Earth.

Then what does that make astronauts?

Ancient pony legends say that the Royal Sisters came from the west.

Why not just ask them?

... Banshee going to find that its not wise to pick a fight with whoever a cosmic power finds interesting. Plus somepony had a rather exaggerated sense of self in life. If anything by killing Sea Worthy she removed the biggest obstacle to Vigil's survival. Now they can take the right course.

That was a good story.

Good world building, great characters.

Damn good story. Well done!
