Does he look like a bitch?


This is the first chapter of my fic.

 

Chronicles of a Critic - By The Ponyville Critic
 
Prologue - South Bruchellia: Night
 
Final Draft is going to kill me for not starting this sooner.
 
It's now night-time in a foreign land and I'm convinced that
my zebra companion doesn't want to either kill me or eat me
, so that's always a good sign. Anyhoof, my journey is going
rather well, I've learned a few things about zebra culture, though
I haven't gotten to the sensitive topics yet.
 
You're probably wondering how I got to this place with the people
to whom I'm referring and why I'm going to do what I'm about to do
, well, it all started about 4 months ago, I was exploring the uncharted
regions of Pantheria, in the desert, I hadn't packed enough water,
and you can guess what happened...
 
-4 Months ago- Eastern Pantheria: Day
 
It was mid-day, probably, the heat of the sun overpowering my 
senses and forcing me to take shelter. I found a small shrine of 
some sort, decrepit and forgotten, just as I had gotten my breath 
back, the ground below me collapsed, leaving me falling towards the 
darkness, just before I hit what I assumed to be ground, I heard 
the snap of a rope, it had tangled around my back leg somewhere 
along the way down. Lucky me. I was trapped, no way of getting 
down, I had to think fast before I passed out.
 
I tried to pull myself up the rop to untie it but I'm not a unicorn 
and unfortunately, I'm not that flexible. I tried calling a (bat?) 
over to me to make it chew the rope. I was feeling light-headed, 
just when I thought I was going to black out, the rope snapped and 
I fell head-first into the hard concrete floor. Yes, concrete, I 
felt around me, it was unmistakebly concrete, after about 2 minutes 
fumbling with a fire-making kit, a lit a torch, all around me, 
there were thousands, and thousands.....of books.
 
I had stumbled into an old library of some sort, dusty books lining 
the old, wooden and rotten shelves. Most of the books had long 
since lost their bindings, and those that had covers were of a 
different language. Non-Equestrian, and not a language I had ever 
seen before, since I had no immediate reason to leave, I lit a
conveniently placed candle and sat down at a stone table so
the book was illuminated by it's dim glow.
 
I pulled a few documents out of my saddlebags, studies on
ancient languages, I found no matches. It was an undiscovered
language. I wondered, had I just discovered something? I put
everything back and went exploring a bit to find out just what I
had stumbled upon, the shape, the architecture, it was
undeniably the biggest discovery of my life-time.....the lost
library of Alexandripaw.
 
If I was able to prove the existence of one of the most infamous
sources of lost knowledge in the history of the world, it would
have made my career as an adventurer, I would be remembered
for ages to come. But I wasn't after the fame, all I wanted was the
thrill of seeing spectacular sights and stunning scenery. And who
knew what kind of wisdom is contained within those books. So I left
with a couple of books in my saddlebags, and returned to
Aexandripaw to get on my plane back to Equestria.

I wonder how Ponyville was able to build itself and develop in a quarantine zone when basically all of Equestria is in anarchy and there are still undead zombies possibly lingering outside their walls. Logically, if a zombie apocalypse occurred, it would take way more than nine years to totally eradicate the virus, or bacteria, or fungi. And literally, fighting a zombie infection is ten times worse than fighting AIDS, or the influenza in the early 20th century, or the smallpox back in the colonial ages. It would take decades, even centuries, to totally extinguish the undead.

 

Also, the damage dealt by the issue is probably going to stay for some time.

The plague was cured through magic, also, the damage of the apocalypse is still there, it's just covered up. There's physical damage left by the trotters, e.g. Missy and Grand's legs. and mental damage.

Hey guys, so here's some bad news for you.

 

I'm leaving for the weekend on a camping trip, and I wont be back until Sunday afternoon. Because of this, can we.... Stop the whole RP for a bit? Please..?

I know, but it's like last time.. I was gone for a week to summer camp, and the RP is finished off by killing that super trotter or whatever. I know we've slowed down a lot since then, but... Still, I just don't want to be held up.

The real world doesnt have magic tho

This one does

 

Yea

 

And you think magic is going to solve everything?

 

It's like a nuke.

 

It's awesome.

 

But in a pandemic, it's not going to do much shit.
