Trot of the Dead (Rewritten)

by DeshLune
Through an arcane magic, the dead rise and Equestria may be on the precipice of destruction. The Princesses are gone, and one stallion must learn friendship if he is to survive.

(First Person)(Unknowing Timeline)
With the rise of an ancient and powerful magic, the dead rise and attack the living, the living die and rise again; a terrible cycle of life and death. And if it is not stopped, all of Equestria and beyond may be consumed and destroyed. Yet, against all odds, it seems that the Princesses have vanished.

A stallion, who has lived on his own and for himself, must learn that it isn't just about him, and that if he is to survive then he will need to let others in—to make friends. Join Ever Last as he, an insignificant pony, attempts to survive the apocalypse.


(Set pre-season five finale.)
I am currently reworking the prologue, and making some "small" changes to some things. The tags will be updated once I am close, and the prologue will have a word count that isn't: 4,334 words. Once that word count changes, that means the entire prologue was replaced; as the current one makes me feel like I can't progress (and it works to just make a rewrite of the single chapter than it is to rewrite the entire story and have to change more).
