Warring Heaven

Cruel-Minded Destruction

Author's Note:

The last major translation work regarding the fragments dates back forty-three years at this point. Though this work largely aligns with the previous one, barring a few mistakes and new developments in our understanding of the language, it was still thought preferable to compile a new, updated version of the translation, rather than newly publish the old and (if only partially) flawed one. As previously mentioned, it is hoped one day we may be presented with one capable of understanding the language properly, be they a pony with a talent for it or a member of the species originally responsible for the writings, or perhaps a scholar of a country other than Equestria. Regardless, in the lack of such a boon research is to persevere. What nature does not provide, it's in ponies' nature to supply.
