The Waning Dusk

by GDQuirm
Harold does not much enjoy his life, his new one, or his old one. But he has little choice in the matter. Quite soon though Equestria may need saving from an ancient terror: Discord's mother. And it seems he's the one that needs to do the s

Harold J. Piggs does not enjoy his life. He supposes he deserves it, all things considered.
But someone has to do the accounting, wherever they end up.
Discord's mother may soon find herself reborn into the world, and perhaps a little more than little cross for the hiatus she had to take. But other actors are in play, and so Harold has made his way into the fray, bringing three earth ponies along to clean up the mess.
And quite a mess it is.

A warning:

This story occasionally deals with some serious topics. It does contain some heavy scenes, although these are largely rare. Since they are not the focus, and also not common, this story does not have a 'Dark' tag, as that would be inaccurate and misleading.

An experiment of sorts. Trying out genres and writing methods I usually don't work with. Expect inexperience.

Story is currently seeking good, feedback providing editors.

Edit: Apologies to the two or so people following this story, but I'm afraid I just have too many projects on my hands at the moment. Since this was just an experiment, I'm unlikely to continue it. I may rewrite it in my standard style sometime, though.
