I'm odd. I dunno? I guess I'm here because some Empty Plots need Filler.

Very nice! I was looking forward to this!
Good art too
Story description:
Then again, with more than one royal to take the throne of the Crytal Empire and more than one human for the residents of the vulnerable Empire to love and rely on, could a new threat be in the making?
Crystal
Fun fact: "Zebra have 40 teeth as adults".
That what i was remembering when i see Zecora's pictures.
No forced idiot balls for anycreatures anymore, what will RainbowDash be unchanged? Can she even access Rainboom anymore?
If yes, will more Cutie Mark blessed heros apper?
Is the Royal Curse activ anymore? It was Harmony that keep the Royals eternaly young. When Luna Rose becomes the new Harmony, will she be able to return imortality towards age?
Their world is a beacon of hope. One darkness was defeated and that might just be one of many.
Is there a Alliance of Survivers?
'Light' or 'Shadow'
vs
The all consuming 'Darkness'?!
That said, every real emergency doctors and hospital will face will be cripping or lethal until they learn trough mistakes. The death will be High but since Stallions can now become active and start Herds one sexual urges are no longer suppressed, life will find a way...
Pony snuggels
Healing fast don't fix Healing wrong... Bone can heal the wrong way for example...
Sooo... Gruff body is still alive? I wonder if he can recover or if his still living body can be put to use.
Potion are Medications. Medications to high or low or mixed incorrectly or to the wrong race can be poisen, lethal perhaps. It will probably take lifetimes to rediscover the science of Alchemy...
Great first chapter. Everyone will needs months of recovery time. Literally everyone with exception to Becky, they all got fucked up. Or was Lumberman coming of easy? Not sure...
What season was it before it all started?
Because so far i can see Chrysalis and the Storm King became a problem, the Bugwaifu might become a ally if her food demand is meet.
Logically they are the most valuable ally or worst enemy, since the infiltration is unrivaled and their Emotivore nature makes them perfect to for all nations to hire for all areas of their nation:
- Educational and emotional care.
- Medical support of the old and sick ponies.
- Military use inside and outside.
- For politics and espionage.
- Getting Bugwaifu's to singels. (Seriously, I can see orgys happen and it will be the easy and fast way for emotion harvests...)
All Predators are unguided... Monster Hunter Guilds will be needed if Luna Rose can't keep them in check...
Will Ember come and stay in the Crystal Empire? If yes, found Crystal Slifers con be nom-nom out of their body
Damn... Ember will be surrounded 24/7 by Food
How will they keep up Justin meat supplies up? I hope the have Chicken in the Crystal Empire for egg and meat...
Since the Griffon Lands no longer are hold by Harmony in poverty, will the civilians take their corrupt leaders apart and start anew?
Sooo... Sphinx was one of the imortal races if i don't missremember things. A leader for the Griffons perhaps?
The Seaponys will be forwarned by Chris about the Stormking invasion plans? I actually would welcome him coming once everyone recovered and him getting the Shit kicked out of him
Is the Dragon Lord Scepter still working? Or was it a Sailor Moon toy empowered by Harmony?
I know it is literally to soon to ask a d will probably never be part of thus story but...
Is Harmony protection only Equus/ Equis wide because the Universe only us one Planet, Moon and Sun big? Or could stay expand into Space...
'MLP Space Adventures are Magic'

Glad I was finally able to bring it.
Thanks. I've come a long way, but still got a long way to go.
11438294
mhm, keep up the good work!
11437891
Fixed
Yeah... The teeth do come off as kind of odd that close up.
Rainbow has been unchained since meeting the humans and spending time with them. It has yet to be seen if Rainbow can still access her rainboom since Harmony has been removed, but it would seem unlikely that she would have lost that power.
As for creating more cutie marks like she did for Thunder Glide and Oven Fresh... that seemed more like a side effect of Harmony's direct influence.
It was stated that with Luna Ring taking over, everything would go back to normal and eventually she would be strong enough to allow for changes to be made. So, at this point, it can't be clearly stated where the curse is powered up at.
It's not known how many worlds were lost to The Darkness, but the Rainbow Dash Harmony was the only "Lone" survivor outside of the Echoes to be known so far.
Otherwise, the only other wildcard was the Crystal Mandala, the one Echo who was allowed to get away before the battle ended.
Not really sure where she ventured off to, since she decided to forge a new path away from Sword.
There aren't too many properly educated about sex yet... and that includes Cadance and the Wonderbolts. So, there is still a lot of growing pains that will have to be dealt with.
It's moments like that which always reminds me of the chapter 51 "The Power of Touch: Is That How You Really Feel?"
Becky already made a good point the first time addressing some of the issues with Zecora and Sunburst about healing potions to cure her. One quick and easy fix could easily cause even greater damages by accident, so we'll have to see where this leads.
It was only Guff's mind/soul that was lost, not his body.
You're getting ahead of me, bro. 😅
Really it was Cerb and Chris that took the worst of injuries for the humans. Kelly split her lip and Benny took a few hits, but Lumberman didn't take charging too far into the front lines and Becky was kept far to the rear.
Season 6. The first chapter started the day after airing "No Second Prances." The next big event (episode) in the series would have been Rainbow finally getting accepted into the Wonderbolts, but my story already accelerated that event.
Crysalis was to be the season's final boss to fight, but she's already been shown to have made changes to speed and targets of her plan win infiltrating Canterlot Castle before Thorax even showed up. Of course, that was a consequence of the humans showing up and Harmony having no ability to plan and use whispers around them.
The Storm King, though? He's a complete unknown at this point.
The changelings could be both a great threat or a great asset. How it all plays out will be a surprise, though.
The forest will be a little less safe for a while, that is true. It's a good thing the Deer Kin are stepping up.
There will be plenty of visitors to the Crystal Empire.
As of right now, all they have is whatever amount of owlbear was given to them. After that... no more meat.
They would have to want to. It's just as likely that leaders double down and turn even more tyrannical.
Anything could happen.
A sphinx? Maybe for the Saddle Arabians.
Sadly, our humans entered Equestria in April 2016. The Storm King wasn't shown until June (I think?) of 2017 in the first trailer for the movie. Even then, in the trailer, Tempest was built up to be the main villain, not him.
The only one who left who would know of the plans would be Luna Ring, and she's not able to communicate for at least another year. Of course, that's just an estimated time frame.
I'll say all Harmony empowered items should still be in play. The only exceptions would be the brief period where the tree was removed and Luna Ring was still trying to get in tune with the world she had connected herself to.
So, that leaves a day or two for some protective spells to possibly falter to some degree.
Harmony's protection extended around her dimension, not the planet. That would be both much larger, but also notionally easier to protect when factored in terms of vectors as opposed to measurable units.
You tell me that at the very end of reading all your comments?
Damn it.
11438294
im guessing everyone is in a buttload of pain
kinda still sad about my great and powerful waifu though. knowing me if i was there id spend every moment at the spot trixie vanished waiting for her to come back rain or shine regardless of health despite my romantic feelings for rarity and flutters im not even sure what those two and the others would do though if they kept seeing me there waiting
11439915
Oh, yeah. Everybody is in hard recovery mode after this last fight. If not from the physical beatings and injuries, then the magic exhaustion has been rather taxing.
Everything changed for Trixie when she brought the humans to Ponyville. And in the end, it all came full circle. From her tour, her spell, and even Starlight's warning about a repeat of attempting her spell (not sure if anyone caught that) in chapter 2.
As for Flutters and Rarity, they have some growing pains they're going to have to suffer through.
We all grieve in our own ways at our own pace. There will be more grief to confront before any real progress is made, so get ready for that.
Oh lord, that speech Rarity had to do was FULL of irony considering what happened with Justin.
And hooooly crap it's back! Though I may have to re-read the first story again to remember some details
11442073
Rarity's speech was just as much an act of self-admonishment for her poor choices that pushed Cerb away as it was the same that pushed Discord and Trixie away. She realized too late that if you really are going to accept someone for who they are, then you have to accept them holistically. If not, you won't have the opportunity to be there for them when they need you the most, as you will have cut yourself out of their lives.
Yeah. Black-Soul spent a week before the release to blaze through the first arc again just to freshen up. Otherwise, if you have any questions along the way, feel free to ask.
Nicely done! And interesting take about the meat thing.
When it comes to cerb, i can understand him, its always hard for veterans.
Something i noticed
is there not the " missing?
Great chapter showing the aftermath that get never shown on action movies and Indiana Jones movies.
There is always a before and after. The adventures are just a part of life and usually things rather get more complicated than easyer.
The Crystal Empire was probably spared from pandemic waves from being out of time and having to face things like the 'common cold'. But other things like the weather and wildlife is now unpredictable.
If the are financial unstable than things get even more dicy...
Month of recover for all humans, perfect time to establish side characters and hint of villain of the script now going off the script.
But who knows? Maybe one or the other villain of the script become unexpectedly a anti-hero off the script?
Alternativ we might get to skip Tirek sucking off ponys like a 2 bit whore for their magic or it get delayed...
The Royal Curse probably is what keeps Villains also young? Since the Storm King is to die one way or another, maybe he can get a rather hilarious two pump champ ending and we get rather someone like Tempest as seriouse opposition. Tempest did give the Dtorm King like 8/10 of his success, so now that Harmony stopped holding the Storm Kings promises over her head i could see her taking what she has earned gor years. A chance to talk and when denied, take what is needed to restore her horn...
Your art was great and i am rather surprised how mutch the face expression gives away.
The Steak of Owlbear don't look to bad either.
Now that Harmony isn't mind whipping anyone, maybe we can spread medical and construction work knowledge while our heros recover?
The can dictated and give out the knowledge like Candy to all nations for mutual benefishal growth!
One question before i end this string of comments:
Did you remember to use
' https://ttsreader.com/ '
to not have to read it all on your own?
so im guessing cadance and shining are or going to be divorced. i wonder who would get custody or at least visitation rights to see little flurry im also hoping cerb will be a good dad to her in the meantime.
ps im still hoping for that tshundere queen chrysalis i mentioned in the last arc
11443041
Yeah. There's plenty of herbivores that will capitalize on certain animal-based nutrition when they can. Sometimes it's as simple as chewing up some bones for iron or calcium (presumably). However, there are videos you can find of horses snacking on small birds, baby chickens in particular.
That part of Cerb will play a larger role in the near future when some old friends pay a visit.
Yeah, I somehow missed that during an edit. Thanks for the catch.
Honestly love the whole take on Shining and Cadences separation...even if it means leaving all of Cadences anguishes, problems and struggles on Cerbs shoulders to carry.
Oh well, they're both mentally and spiritually good for each other right now, so that's not a big issue.
(Oh, and those wonderbolts NEED to get laid. Not even saying that as a joke, it's hilarious seeing Equestrias top fliers reduced to fillies when it comes to Cerb...thankfully they can do their jobs while scheming.)
11443329
a friend of mine has it that they eat fish and poultry on special occasions.
I can understand cerb, as I got an OC with similar problems, that started a small argument
well, I hope she wont overdose it, saw a "comedy video" about that
11443170
So true. In this case, a big repercussion of removing Harmony was also removing all the environmental strings she was pulling. Luna Ring can only do so much at this point.
It was hinted at in the end of the last arc the even the wildlife around the Everfree Forest was acting unusual. So, who knows what to expect?
If one nation is affected, who knows which others might be?
That's the plan
I won't give away anything of what to expect, but it's safe to say that some characters might end up changing their mentalities or methods without Harmony whispering to them what to think or feel.
The timeline for the Storm King and Tempest could potentially be altered, if not, their military efforts leading up to the prequels of comics that outlined what happened before the movie. With that in mind, who knows what could happen since Kelly will be in the Abyssinian Empire for a while.
Also, I don't think I would do a villain like that. Maybe outsmarted, poisoned, trapped, or assassinated... but not overpowered and stomped out like a chump. Not unless it was established that he was more of a spell caster than a skilled fighter or tactician. Then, yeah... Then he could be slapped around.
The face was about all I got down well enough in my humble opinion. I still really need to up my hair illustration abilities.
I didn't hate the steak, but I think I undersold the depth of detail I was aiming for with the realism I was referencing. In that case, less might have been more, but it still turned out better than I could have done months ago.
One step at a time. They gotta fix themselves before they can fix a population.
Nope. I usually prefer to read the comments as opposed to have them read to me.
11443306
Has my writing been so predictable in the past?
Okay, maybe some of the pairings were obvious, but not all the conflicts were so cut and dry. So, just be patient and see how things pan out for the lovely couple.
Cerb has always been awesome to Flurryheart, just like Becky was as well. Honestly, no matter how it ends for any of those involved, I'm sure Flurry will be more than lovingly tended to.
I have some interesting plans for the twisted love-sucking queen. Not just her, but the changelings overall.
11443363
I was very careful with the attraction Cadance had with Cerb from very early on. It was never meant to be taken with wreckless abandonment or no consideration for others involved. Not only did that include Rarity and Fluttershy, but Shining and Cerb as well. Not to mention, she questioned herself so many times what it was she was wanting or why she even had such powerful feelings, only to direct them back to Shining.
Now, without Shining, even when Cerb is so vulnerable physically, mentally, and emotionally, her true emotions won't allow her to mindlessly throw herself at Cerb. She needs support, stability, confirmation, and someone she can rely on to be real and honest with her more than the fantastical thoughts she was dreaming of earlier.
If anything, this might be the romance story that Cerb's first two mares fell short of if Cadance is careful with how she approaches him and treats their relationship.
At the same time, Rainbow Dash and Thunder might be fooling themselves, while the two Wonderbolts could end up wisely positioning themselves right where they want to be if Cerb is afraid of ruining a married couple.
I tend to agree. Cadance is so kind-hearted, even with all her emotional baggage. Cerb is probably the perfect guy to help her unload it all.
Those two are still clueless about sex as well, making future hilarity all that more promising. However, at the same time, I have some big plans for them.
11443373
When you say "they," do you mean your friend who is a vegetarian or horses who eat fish and poultry?
It happens.
And overdose won't be likely, as only Becky or medical staff will provide any doses of the harder drugs and the rest of the medication will only be provided as needed.
11443411
the latter.
its a bit complicated.
well if you really wanna know
and if you need a laugh
11443442
Yeah... that'll do it.
11443448
good
Damn, forgot Thorax was even a character lol, though I'd guess with Cerb in the empire it makes sense to bring him in.
Rainbow also just learned that Empire weather isn't ponyville weather...wonder who's gonna help her there
still, nicely done!
11475333
Yeah, Thorax is still mixed up in the story somewhere, and he was alluded to be in this area previously in the last arc near the end of the story. Back in Epilogue. Post Conflict: A Whole New World. Part 1, two of the changeling guards had an exchange about being stuck on duty. One of them had a complaint of:
“This job stinks, but at least we’re not stuck with Pharynx in the frozen north searching for Thorax and Ocellus.”
That, and he would have ended up there in Season Six anyway, not many episodes/weeks/months from when the humans arrived anyway.
Good question. The next chapter should shed some light on that.
11475377
Thanks. Mostly I just wanted to give some focus on Thunder Glide for a while. We'll get some more time with her again next time, but I feel like she hasn't been properly fleshed out yet. That's all.
11475395
i know your feeling. also, your update helping me a bit to relax, got a surgery tomorrow
11475398
I have to go in for some testing with some specialists tomorrow as well to get my heart checked out. So, it looks like we're both in need of some positivity.
I hope all goes well, and not next week, but the week after will be a bigger and longer chapter release. Things should really start to pick up after that, as well. Lots more motion and activity. Hopefully, it will come at a time to find you in better health and spirits.
11475458
mhm. if i am lkucky, i am out on friday
Awesome a update! Thanks EmptyPlotFiller
From Mother to potencial future lover? Milf... Heh...
Rainbowdash is a riot, sure she get lead along with some well placed words
At least Rainbowdash escaped a existens crisis.
When will they start selling the stuff
I am pretty sure that good sleep leaves so mutch less impact that his mind just don't care to recall his good sleep, i often only remember my dreams like half a hour before stuff is just gone.
Reading and planning is perfect to keep his head bussy while his/their bodys recover.
Pony pillows are best pillows
Is Rarity trying to come to the Crystal Empire?
Unless she takes a hooves off approach i really don't see it happen...
11475398
11475458
I recommend comedy storys on Fimfiction via text to speech or youtube. Laughter is healthy for a reason
11475548
already did that, helped a little bit
11475544
I'm doing my best to keep some level of continuity of a schedule for you guys.
Maybe once she gets her mind straightened out.
Rainbow knows more the most about everything surrounding Cerb and everything involving the humans, so she has the highest opportunity for cracking jokes and getting put in awkward situations.
She's got those skills, ya know.
If only they could bottle it. Some pony would be rich.
Game on, anypony?
No? Okay. Looks like Cerb is on a solo campaign for now.
My dreams are hit and miss now'a days on when I can remember them. Mostly I'm just so fixated on being upset that I have to be awake that I'm pretty sure that makes me forget what I was dreaming about.
For me, at least as of right now, it's going over my first arc to help me better write the next arc so characters stay more true to themselves.
Oh, man... What I wouldn't give for the chance.
Now, as for Rarity's intent or future plans, I'm not one to give away spoilers. However... just keep all the unanswered portions of this chapter fresh in your mind for the next release. You have to understand that things are always moving in my story and characters don't really stop trying to advance their goals. it's just that... Ya know... Shit happens.
Also, did you catch the title of the next chapter?
I am quite concerned how the invasion in the Crystal Empire might end... After all planned was like Loony Toons Bugs bunny dodge bullets from the Hunter...
But what they might get is:
Changelings where lucky in the Canterlot invasion, that luck of no lost lifes or low death will be unlike to hold...
11475619
Outside of a few "partially" living echoes, our heroes have really only had to fight constructs. So... yeah. Not sure how any armed conflict would end up depending on who is fighting who and to what level the new Harmony is able to keep their durability up. After all, the old Ring of Harmony was badly damaged from all the years of powering the shields to protect the world Luna Ring took over. The damage was bad enough that what Luna Ring thought might take minutes to accomplish so as to step in and protect this new Equestrian world actually took days. Trixie Rose predicted it would take a year to have enough control over to be able to communicate with her, but that will depend on what kind of priorities she's keeping and what she's even able to accomplish.
This is all one big guessing game as to what can happen now.
11475458
I am out on friday, just dealing with a aftermath wound
11477933
Glad to hear you made it out. I've had my fair share of surgeries.
As for my last bout of testing.... I sadly got nothing out of it, outside of a near scare of having to make another trip to the ER but thankfully avoided that tragedy. At the same time, my condition continues to be undiagnosed.
11478093
need a hug?
11478094
I need a cure or at least a viable treatment plan.
11478104
hug then
11478107
Yeah. That'll do.
11478113
good
she mostly has a plan, dang it rarity!
3 things stuck out to me in this chapter:
1-Kudos to Twilight and Celestia for acknowledging the political ramifications of Rarity's actions, especially with how much favor the humans have. Really glad to see both royals adjusting to their new world in what seems to be a step forward in the right mindset.
2-Cerbs really starting to dance on the line of no return again, though like last time it's more for his healing than simply trying to bed a mare...even if some of said mares have that endgame in mind.
3-And here I thought Rarity and Fluttershy would behave after the speech Rarity gave not too long ago...4 chapters in and we've already almost got a political crisis on our hands.
Great chapter all in all, hope your feeling better man
Holy shit... I had twice to run the text to speech function because how mutch content and difficulty this puzzle was showing.
Daaammmnnn!
Rarity really drowned the Puppy with her actions...
Hope Spike is getting better and he really will in fact get natural replacements.
Pinkie Pie is a riot and i am looking forward to her antics. Highly entertaining!
In case we need at some point a new God of Chaos, I vote Pinkie.
Luna will be probably quite salty without her saltlick Kelly.
Fluttershy is back in action? Finally she pulled the
'ooo the poor homicidal Owlbear is dead' stick out of her ass... Because... I fear going Derpy from facepalming so mutch after reading her reasoning...
Looking forward to the part where the humans come up. Even if it's basically them staying in bed and talking all day because everyone and their Uncle is fucked up one way or another.
I fear for Big Mac, poor guy will have to learn to life with blueballs syndrome.
Kelly probably will be out of frustration leak a river worth of frustration.
Poor Becky has ridiculous levels of backlog to teach the ponies...
At least Lumberman and Applejack will have less drama on their laps. Perhaps they can start a Building school or something? Ever Nation will want his actually learned and proven teachings to share.
👍
All in all glorious story update
👍
1 both flutters and the marshmallow are being borderline yandere and it looks like tia is about to go conversion burau Celestia or at least daybreaker and i REALLY think both twi and sunbutt need to lay off the hooch for a bit it seems to me they are starting to drink when stressed and thats not healthy and needs to be addressed and....huh......where did sunbutt get the wine from i thought they had no concept of alcohol
11488486
Let us not forget, even if it's been a while, something BonBon once told Lyra in CTTB: Chapter 49.5 Interlude: So, About the Humans the Other Night.
11488487
I'd say that Cadance's letters also reflected her acknowledgment of potential ramifications, thus all the selective wording she chose for phrasing how Cerb's care was attended to, as well as addressing him as ambassador Husk. Also, she referred to Thunder, Rainbow, Fleetfoot, and Spitfire as "heroines involved in the Young Ambassadors Rescue Event," which could be used as a tactic so that not her or any other party in the know could challenge their qualification to be trusted with Cerb without drawing attention to that event in the first place.
Even the ending of the letter was calm almost apologetic instead of hurling insults or leveraging her own demands. Cadance did play her cards rather smartly to present the best picture for how she was caring for Cerb without inviting retaliation.
With Celestia, she's been in power for a 1,000 plus years, so this is nothing new to her. For Twilight, though... She picked up quick to realize that Rarity fucked up, but it's not clear if even she knows how much of a powder keg this situation could turn into if Rarity tries to lite the fuze again.
Cerb... I almost want to say fell into the same trap as did with Flutters and Rarity, but I could also say that he never really got out of it with them, and Cadance kind of stepped in and ran off with him when Flutters and Rarity had their break downs. Cerb never got all the help he needed. He never had the chance to with everything else going on. There was a plan to really start working on his issues, and there was some moments of him opening up, but the plan was always for him to got to Crystal Empire to fix himself anyway. Only now, his two prior lovers got left behind.
Although, as far as some of his other weaknesses go... that boy might be in trouble.
Oh, they learned their lessons on how they let screwed up with abandoning Cerb when he needed them. This new mess is new set of fuck ups trying to make amends.
This is just the start of things.
Thanks for saying so, and it looks like some of the wheels are in motion for me finally getting my medical case more attention.
