Goodnight, Somepony

by Twigai
In the humid air of warm Manehattan Nights, The Bluesmare's siren song calls from everywhere. A sundered white horse on an errand of peace and mercy follows the piper down the path of her life, towards a final act of redemption.

(A comic adaptation exists for this story! Check it out here!)


On foggy Manehattan nights, when when the clinging humidity can be seen clearly by the beams of streetlights, The Bluesmare's song rises from everywhere, drawing the soul inexorably to it.

One dirty white horse, on a errand of penance and mercy, gleams past the street-trotters at the witching hour. Following the blighted dirt of her shortened path, she commits herself to one final act of redemption, for good or for ill.

This is her brief story.


(The song, Goodnight, Somepony featured in this tale is an homage to the song Goodnight, My Someone from the Broadway production "The Music Man", originally written and composed by Robert Meredith Willson in 1957. The lyrics of the song in this story are intentionally different from the song upon which it is based.)
