"IT IS THE -- ASTRAL CALENDAR ERROR. FOR MORE THAN SEVEN HUNDRED YEARS THE PRINCE HAS SAT UPON THE GOLDEN THRONE OF EQUUSWEYR. HE IS THE MASTER OF THE EVERFREE PEOPLES BY THE WILL OF HIS SUBJECTS AND MASTER OF EQUUSWEYR BY THE AUTHORITY OF ITS WEYRMIND. HE IS A HIGH TEMPLAR BURNING WITH POWER FROM THE ETERNAL CORE OF EQUUSWEYR. HE IS THE FOAL SOVEREIGN OF THE EVERFREE PRINCEDOM, FOREVER LOST WITHIN LUCID DREAMS FROM WHICH HE CANNOT WAKE, SEEING THINGS FAR BEYOND MORTAL KEN, EVEN AS THOUSANDS OF SOULS PLEDGE FEALTY TO HIM EVERY DAY.
YET EVEN IN HIS DREAMING STATE, THE PRINCE IS FAR FROM HELPLESS AS HE MAINTAINS ETERNAL VIGILANCE, WATCHING OVER HIS PEOPLE THAT THEY MAY NEVER COME TO HARM. GREATEST AMONGST HIS SUBJECTS ARE THE CUSTODES DE TEMPLARI, THE TEMPLAR GUARD, CYBERNETICALLY AND PSIONICALLY ALTERED SUPER-UNICORN SOLDIERS. HIS OTHER SUBJECTS ARE LEGION: THE EVERFREE EARTH PONIES, THE SKY AND TREE PEGASI, THE EVERFREE UNICORNS, AND THE MYSTERIOUS PSEUDO-ALICORNS CALLED THE WEYRTOUCHED, AS WELL AS THE CHANGELINGS OF QUEEN AMALTHEA AND MANY GRIFFONS; NOT TO MENTION EQUUSWEYR ITSELF AND ITS ARMIES OF COUNTLESS MACHINES...
TO BE A PONY IN SUCH TIMES IS TO BE ONE AMONGST THOUSANDS. IT IS TO LIVE IN THE CULTURAL MELTING POT OF THE MOST TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED SOCIETY EVER CONCEIVED. FORGET SUPERSTITION AND FEAR FOR THERE IS THE POWER OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY. FORGET WAR AND HATRED FOR THERE IS PROGRESS, UNDERSTANDING AND REASON. THE EVERFREE FOREST IS A PLACE OF MYSTERY AND HIGH ADVENTURE, WITH THE EVERFREE PRINCEDOM AT ITS HEART STANDING AS A BASTION OF TRUE HARMONY. IN THE EVERFREE PRINCEDOM THERE IS SANCTUARY. THERE IS AN ETERNITY OF PEACE, KNOWLEDGE AND LEARNING, BROKEN ONLY BY THE IRRITANT OF CERTAIN ALICORN MARES..."

Interesting chapter, especially the changeling and griffin stuff. A question, do you ever think of writing more on your other story? I ask that because you're weiting more about the Prince recently, and the Archives are all about him.
5000459 I'll probably do that, when I can think of more stuff to write. This little thing was "what if I could adapt the Prince to 40k"; I thought I'd get smashed by legions of 40k fanatics for this.
Truth be told, 40k is probably too dark for such a kind figure as the Prince; he'd probably get marked by the Imperium as an Unsanctioned Xenos Psyker and then he and his Princedom would be snuffed out... or would they?
I don't know...
"In an insane future, all the Prince can try to be is the sanest choice."
I imagine his Nexus as "the last beacon of hope" in the grim darkness; where all are welcome. Man, Tau, Eldar, maybe even a few chaos followers and Tyranids so long as they were... vaguely reasonable and didn't try to eat or convert anyone.
The Weyrmind could calm or make the tyranids docile, and as for Chaos, well, they have their own section of Equusweyr and... it stops there.
Doubtful but one can always hope.
.....A question. Do they mean wanting as in snuggles..
Or wanting as in STRUGGLE snuggles..
5002686 For some unknown reason, Celestia has got it into her head that the Prince is a serious threat to her power in Equestria--and though he could be, he actually isn't. (he doesn't care a whit about the Royal Sisters). Thus, she's always hassling him, wanting him to join the Royal Family and become a "proper" Royal (i.e. come live in Canterlot where she can keep an eye on him/keep him under her hoof!)--but the Prince is having none of it!
5002721 ...I imagine Luna just likes him in this universe?
5002778 You got it. Also, even though she knows he's not a foal, Luna tends to want to mother him just a bit, since, due to his very small size and frailty he looks like a foal, setting her maternal instincts shouting. There's a little friendly rivalry thing going on between her and his Hoofmaidens; aka. who can tend to him better?
