Sins of the Father

Oh man, this was going to be big. I had such grand designs for this. I was going to have our MC gather the other aspects and use them for mundane things. I was going to go over how the Equestrians get their fullest magical powers and the advent of Cutie Marks, how the MC slowly advanced through technological ages, and the end of the first arc was supposed to be where the sun and moon eclipse, leading Tia and Luna to earn their cutie marks by moving the sun and moon on their own. Arcs after that would go over how the MC met his compatriots, what he did in hell for a while, it was going to be nuts. Hundred chapters at least. Maybe multiple books.

Then the writers block hit. Then the interest in MLP waned, to the point where even now, the characters only really exist in my head as very disillusioned versions of themselves. Even then, they're typically just kinda, side thoughts now. The last vestiges of my dying creativity trying to hold onto something, anything in order to keep my creativity alive. But it's dying, and likely will continue to do so until I can find a new muse. A new source of inspiration to latch onto and obsess over. I genuinely would be surprised if I ever get a resurgence of interest in MLP again in the future. Maybe I'm just getting old... I am now 29, so... could be a factor... Either way, I appreciate the attention that you gave this while it lived, but now, I must only say: Thank you, and have a great life.

Sincerely,

Soren Mercer
