Penned IN

by Qwix
In the shadows they lurk; ever changing, ever shifting, always under the surface. Sometimes, it takes action to fight against the tide, but a pony without anything save his name and wit will vows to erase those shadows with his words and his heart.

Pennaprose Lochflow is his name. Or is it a lie? He came to Equestria by events beyond his control, but the road took its toll. He has only his name and his briefcase, filled with his few belongings; a laptop, a sudoku book, and his wit. His memory was not packed for the journey.

Though his memory has left, he stands by a single certainty; human he was, and returning home is his goal. With the help of Princess Twilight's hospitality and a reckless abandon in search for injustice along the way, he will find more than just shadows lurking on the path...

Contains Romance subplot(s), spotty appearances of Luna (past Chapter 20) and the CMC (Chapter 5-6), and non-canonical/derived Equestrian-changeling historical figures.
