We are >A Unicorn Stallion Sombra Worshipping Sonuvabitch.   >You awake from your bed having made your decision, as you awake you already feel different, you can feel the power of fear flowing through your veins albeit faintly but you know the power will only grow. You feel a strange calling to your soul, something is telling you to head to the east, you cannot discern why or what but you feel it has to do with your decision. >Your house is quite a simple one very few furniture, you were never much of a decor guy. you climb out of your bed and gaze around your room. >You're house is quite small and only has one floor and 3 rooms, your bedroom has your bed and only a dresser in it. you can see the door to the kitchen next to the dresser. >You grab a saddle from within your dresser, you take your bit sack also from within the dresser and place it inside your saddlebag, you then enter your kitchen and take what food you have with you, 4 apples, and a bottle of water. >You then head to the door and prepare to head outside. >but Before you do you put on your war face. >Exiting your home you are greeted with your hometown the small community of Everlast. >It's ironic really, they named it "Everlast" because they though it would last forever but once the wars started many of the residents left or went to war and never returned. >Many of the buildings are abandoned however you see a small shop still running and a guard outpost however there seems to only be 3 guards left in town. >jesus your hometown is shit the sooner you leave the better you suppose. >You waltz into the small shop before the shopkeeper is even able to make eye contact you begin loudly rambling about how doomed everyone is and that they're all going to die. >The shopkeeper says nothing and simply looks downward. >It appears you've invoked sadness within him. >You feel a small increase in your power. >You decide to take some supplies after all, the soon to be dead won't be needing them. >You stuff a a few healing and magic potions into your pouches and even a small curved dagger before the shopkeep takes notice. >Shopkeep:HEY, put those back don't make me call the guards! >You react quickly, you create a small rock of dark crystal and chuck it at the shopkeep's face and run out the door stolen goods in tow, it's only then you remember...There's only 4 guards left in town! why did you even care so much you wonder? you probably could have slapped their shit anyway. >Oh well you then head to the town's east gate so you can skip town. >A thick forest outlines the path lying beyond the gate. >You begin traveling down the path. >You feel like you've been walking for hours but it's probably only been a few minutes at best. >Jesus you need to work out more. >you always were lacking stamina, you decide to stop for a second to catch your breath when you hear a rustling in the bushes nearby. >You hang back and bit and wait for it to show itself. >the rustling becomes slower and quieter but IS coming towards you. >A pony wearing a mask and clutching a dagger in his mouth leaps from the bushes. >He shouts through the dagger gripped in his teeth. >"HAND OVER YOUR BITS! AND NOBODY GETS HURT!" >there is a few yards between you and him. >You attempt to channel your inner evil and intimidate the bandit. >"You DARE point a weapon at me, you lowly creature?" You Shout. >"Do you really think my bits will save you from the slow rotting of this world?!" you ask. >You see a flinch in his eye. >"Yeah so?" he replies. >It appears this pony is too much of a simpleton to understand what you're conveying here, time for plan B. >You take his weapon by force using magic you use your telekinesis to yank it form his maw. >"H-Hey! give that back!" >You chuck a rock at his head causing him pain. >"AAAAAGH" he screams. >You put his dagger to his throat. >"SUBMIT TO ME AND YOU SHALL BE SPARED!" You Yell >"A-ALRIGHT I'LL DO WHATEVER YOU WANT JUST PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!" he replies. >You remove the dagger from his neck. >"You are to do as I command from now on and don't you dare think about running off!" You bellow >He shivers in fear. >"Now whelp! Carry my things!" You state >You toss your saddle onto him he doesn't resist even slightly. >"Now, Follow worm!" >You then turn around for a brief moment and flash him a creepy smile. >"and if you try to backstab me i'll be sure to make your death long and painful." >You leivtate his dagger back to him and resume your previous course. >The now slave bandit follows behind completely silent. >It seems you've managed to make him truly fear you. >You feel your power increase by a small margin yet again, oh you love that feeling. >you eventually come across a split in the road one path going right one path going left. >You snap around and point a hoof at your slave, he jumps a little. >"You, where do these paths lead?!" you ask. >"U-uh...I think the left path goes north up into the mountains...while the path right heads south into the marsh" He replies. >"I need to go east." you state. >"both should have p-paths that lead east s-sir." he replies. >You decide to head onto the northern path towards the mountains, as you proceed further down the path you begin to see it creeping over the horizon. >but then you get the sudden urge to skin an animal and fashion a cloak out of it. >It takes awhile but you eventually kill enough bunnies to make yourself a bitchin cloak + it'll help keep you warm on them mountains. >You resume your trek to the mountain. >You only just now realize you didn't ask for your slave's name. >"It appears i've forgotten to ask for your name you pathetic worm. what is it?" you ask. >"w-well its-" he begins to say but you cut him off. >"Doesn't matter Your new name is Ripper" you state. >"B-but" he begins to say but again you cut him off. >"SILENCE!" you bellow. >"Your new name is ripper and you're going to like it!" you demand. >"Yes sir!" he shakily replies. >"Now you go first" you state. >"b-but, w-why?" he asks >"because if something jumps out at us or the rocks crumble you'll fall to your doom and not me." >You need to get heading east man, but you need to see what's around first. >You look up into the sky...it looks like it's about noon, your view brings you to what lies in the east, it appears to be a city of some sort but it's hard to see from here, you can make out tall stone walls and a few towers but that's all. >You feel like there's something or someone there that won't appreciate you visiting but you don't know what or why. >You continue climbing higher and higher, perhaps you'll get a better view. >Your slave struggles to climb unlike you and appears to be getting cold. >Eventually you reach the peak, however your view hasn't much improved infact the clouds are blocking your view now. >You take shelter in a small cave from the icey wind, the slave tries to climb in with you but you shove him out. >"NO, my hidey hole." you say. >"B-but sir i'm gonna freeze out here!" he replies >"Unimportant" you reply. >"..." >"Ripper!" You bellow >"What is it sir?" he asks a bit agitated. >"I don't think I like your tone." you say coldly. >"s-sorry sir!" he replies immidiately. >"what is it you wanted master?" he asks. >"I'm getting hungry! go catch a rabbit for food!" you demand. >"A-alright sir, the snow rabbits around here and pretty big anyway...plus i am a big hungry." he says >"Well too bad, you're not getting any." you state. >he immidately slumps sadly. >He sighs and says "Alright boss" >He wanders off to catch a rabbit. >While he's away you use the dagger you stole from the store in everlast to gather wood from the dead trees to fashion a sled. >He takes awhile to return, you've already finished the sled and built your own mini house before he finally gets his lazy ass back. >"Where have you been! I'm starving!" you state. >"Sorry sir those rabbits are real rascals but I managed to outwit em'." >he drops the sack of rabbit meat on the ground. >You use the leftover wood to start a campfire and begin cooking the rabbits. >you both sir near the fire. >... >... >... >"Can I please have some sir?"he asks. >"Fine, but you have to catch it like a dog." you say >You toss the leg in his direction. >he tries to catch it but fumbles and drops it in the snow. >... >He digs it out of the snow and eats it regardless. >after you're all done eating you prepare to head back to the path. >You climb onto the sleigh and tie ripper to it. >"MUSH" you yell. >Ripper struggles greatly, it's obvious he isn't that physically fit. >"NNNNNNNGHHHHHH" he grunts. >"PULL, PULL, PULL!" you yell >Once you reach the slope the sleigh speeds forward. >He tries to outrun it but it eventually runs him over and he is then pulled behind the slay by the rope. >Eventually you return to the path that led east, you use your hoof and press it into the snow to slow yourself down until you come to a full stop next to the path. >You climb off the sleigh and check on ripper. >He appears to be unconscious, must've hit his head or the rope strangled him on the way down. >"Too bad that that didn't kill him." you say to yourself >You attempt to use nightmare magic to wake his ass up and eventually begin smacking him with your pimp hoof. >He finally jumps awake. >"H-HUH WHA? What happened?" he asks >"Either the rope suffocated you or you hit your head, either way doesn't matter we gotta get moving." you say. >"I-I don't feel too good sir...I...I think i'm gonna die or something." he says >"Look ripper, don't worry. I'll take care of you, you're gonna make it, i'm gonna make sure you do i'll care for you and be the father you never had, doesn't that sound good?" you say. >"R-really?" he asks. >"Yes" you reply. >"Infact i'm proud you've even made it this far." you add. >He smiles at you. >... >... >... >You then suddenly without warning whip around and beat him senseless. >he begins crying as you hit him. >"NO YOU IDIOT OF COURSE NOT! you're my slave and nothing else now get, UP!" You Yell >He get's up groggy and sniffling. >"O-Okay" he says. >Blood trickles from his nostrils and his left eye is now black and bruised. >"Now come you puny worm!" you demand. >You then resume the path heading east. >You can feel whatever it was that was calling to your soul grow louder the further east you go. >You eventually reach the city you saw earlier. >the stone walls loom over you the gate is shut with 2 guards standing on opposite sides infront of it. >You send ripper to speak to the guards while you hide in the bushes. >It's only then you take notice of the symbols adorned on their armor. >A sun. >Is..is this....The imperial City of the Sun?! >Oh shit this isn't good no wonder you felt unwelcome earlier if they find out you worship sombra they'll fucking skin you. >But you have to go through the city to continue your trek east! >You call ripper back to you and devise a plan. >You run to the gates screaming "BANDITS, BANDITS! PLEASE LET ME IN!". >The guards react quickly and yank the gate open allowing you to run in ripper follows behind as the gate slams shut. >"Heh that was easy" you say to yourself. >You gaze around to see the city before you. >it's massive and an impressive sight towering buildings and well towers made of serene white bricks people roaming about celestia's holy symbol the sun everywhere and a giant statue at the center of down. >God this place disgusts you. >You can make out what appears to be a gate on the east side of the city that's where you need to be going. >but you also spot many shops armories and even a church to celestia. >You search around for a library as well as a map to further your knowledge of this land. >you eventually find one it appears to be some kind of strange tree building. >You enter and begin scouring through the books for information.
