A Ranger's Retirement
A ranger named Jared Shadows is sent to Equestria to retire, but the world is coming into a time of strife so his goddess asks him for a teensy tiny favor. He agrees and arrives ten years before the mane five meet Twilight.
Jared Shadows is a ranger. A follower of the Goddess Mielikki, goddess of nature. He sacrificed himself to close a portal in the wilds of his land. After dying on the other side of the portal he was taken in by Mielikki who tells him of an offer He can either go on to the aferlife or be reborn in the world of a friend of hers. He takes the second option so she asks him to help prepare the world for a time of strife before full retirement. He agrees again, not knowing what he's getting into and arrives ten years before Nightmare Moon's return.
Can Jared help the main six or will his own life end before it has a chance to really begin?
