Iron Grey
Author's note: For those of you who have not read the original story, please be aware that this story will contain flagrant spoilers.
Some tales are better left untold. I have struggled to not tell this story. However, the more I struggle, the more the knowledge weighs upon my spirit. I have grown weary of this weight. If I can relieve this weight through telling this tale I am happy to do so. If I cannot, so be it. I pray some may hear of this and do good, not evil.
Firstly, one must realize that whenever monsters are let loose, the consequences can neither be fully calculated beforehand, nor easily measured afterward. Secondly, one must know that death is not the greatest evil a pony can experience. Thirdly, every action one makes, one is responsible for. I cannot abide ponies who do make a mess and refuse to deal with the consequences, let alone clean it up. Finally, one must know that the worst horrors, biggest failures, and deepest losses are, in fact, the biggest opportunities. These things are an opportunity to be more. Where horrors abound, beauty can abound tenfold.
