>You've been walking for hours.
>The mountains are still distant.
>Since the Titans, you have seen nothing.
>You hear groans and shrieks.
>But nothing can be seen.
>It's creeping you out.
>You're growing more tired with every step.
>If you fall asleep here, will you ever wake up again?
>The armor weighs a ton.
>The helmet weighs a ton.
>The sword is heavy.
>So is the shield.
>You just keep walking, one step at a time.
>You remind yourself of the 23rd Psalm.
>As you walk through this valley of death, you will fear no evil.
>Because your Lord is still with you.
>Even in Hell.
>You need to keep reminding yourself this.
>Especially in your hour of darkness.
 
>Your journey reaches the mountains.
>They are cliffs almost stretching ad infinitum.
>You no longer hear groans.
>Only roars.
>And screams.
>You can't climb in this armor.
>Why did you even bring it?
>You're a man of peace, how can you even have to fight this beast?
>While you scout for a pass into the mountains, your mind goes back to when you first arrived in Equestria.
>When you saw that rainbow in the sky, you knew God's promise of protection reached even into this world.
>Until that rainbow crashed into you.
>...and it ended up being a horse
>You chuckle at that first encounter.
>Your mind retracts to reality once you see some glowing from the cliff's wall.
>It's the mouth of a cave!
>You carefully step towards the entrance.
>Peering in the cavern is unable to reveal the light source. You gulp and enter.
 
>Inside this cave, you see vertical stairs.
>This world is aged -- thousands of years old.
>These stairs are week.
>You clench your sword and begin traversing the climb.
>The roars grow louder as you approach the top.
>The glow seems brighter too.
>The heat as you approach the zenith is almost unbearable.
>But you must push on.
>You pass the final step and turn around; you're now on the top of the cliffs.
>You can hear a voice, it's almost that of a squeal.
>"I have been patiently waiting for you.
>You turn around and see a monstrous demon.
>Quickly taking a step back, you arm your shield.
"I seek no toil with you. Let me pass so I may leave this place."
>The spirit simply stares at you and laughs.
>At least you assume it's laughing.
>It's making a horrible sound, nonetheless.
>Still, it was worth a shot...
>"It was a noble thing for those Titans to help you."
>The dark being starts hovering closer as you instinctively back up.
>"But it's been so many years since I had a decent meal." the spirit squeals.
>Hearing this, you aim your sword at it, praying to God you can overcome the spirit.
>The demon waves it's hand and fire swarms towards you.
>You kick your shield up just in time.
>The fire's push back slams you into a nearby rock; your helmet flies off.
>Shit, the demon is hovering over you now.
>"I'm afraid your journey ends here.
 
>You can't believe this is happening.
>After everything you've been through.
>This demon is just going to stomp you out.
>You will not stand for that.
>But your sword is heavy.
>And your armor is failing.
>"Hold still you little insect, tonight I feast!"
>You cautiously prepare your sword as the demon swarms into you at full speed.
>He groans as you thrust the sword in to him.
"By the Eternal God, I will defeat you!"
>"You know nothing of god!" The demon snickers.
>You feel a warm blade clever your flesh, sinking through the armor like a hot knife through butter.
"Gahahh!"
>You cry in pain, but you can't let up.
"You will not vanquish me, foul demon! I am on a mission from God!"
>You grasp the demon's sword, but it ignites into flame.
"And my Lord will deliver me!
>The demon laughs even more loudly.
>"This has been fun, but I'm afraid it's time for you to parish."
>With the force of a thousand men, he tosses you back onto the ground, and lifts his sword overhead.
>You can't fight this battle.
>You're not even a fighter.
>You are a man of peace.
>But you are also a man of God.
>He will deliver you.
>So you pray, "Lord, I know you're listening. Please aid me in this time of need!"
>You close your eyes as the demon's sword comes down for its strike.
 
>You release your sword and clench your cross.
>If this beast ends you, at least you know where your faith stands.
>You will not die grasping a weapon.
>"RAHH!" The demon squealed in antagonizing pain.
>You open your eyes to see a sword smashed through the demon's vertex
>You see a large titan standing behind him.
>You let out a gasp of relief, and relax into the ground for a moment.
>The Titans finish off the demon while you rest.
>You're still in pain, wounded by that demon's sword.
>A Titan helps you up and hands you your weapon.
>You look up at the giants and smile.
"You told me this was suicide: an impossible battle."
>You bend down and pick up your shield, but you eye contact remains with the Titans.
"Yet you clothed me, and now you fight for me."
>The original, the one that first noticed you. He looks into the landscape.
>"This world seems to have an end, a Bronze wall stretching up into the sky." he whispers.
>"You said you're on a mission from God."
>He looks towards you.
>"We've fought gods, that race of the alicorns. But we have failed."
>A look of anguish seeps across his face.
>"All but a few were condemned to this hell for it."
 
>He turns back towards the glowing bronze.
>"Perhaps your God would be merciful to us if we assist you."
>You look down for a moment to think.
>You close your eyes and usher some prayers.
>Then you open your eyes and dart them towards the Titan.
"I never got your name, Titan."
>The Titan smiles once again.
>"My name is Crius, son of Uranus."
>You try to smile back through your pain.
"Crius, if you help me, you will be in favor of my Lord."
>At that moment, every Titan yelled a battlecry.
>Crius looked down towards you once more.
>"Then today is the day we storm the gates of Tartarus!"
