Summer Summoning

by Patches in Equestria

First published

The Summer Sun celebration is one of Equestria's most beloved and widely celebrated holidays, serving to commemorate Celestia's salvation of the nation as well as marking the summer solstice. However, the solstice holds another meaning for practitioners of spellcraft across the land: it is said that for the short duration of that one night, the world is closest to the other planes of existence, allowing conjurers of talent to draw beings across the pale to study or bind in service.

Sunburst is not a talented conjurer. However, having whiled away his time at Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns without managing to distinguish himself to another institution or a patron, this could be his final chance to prove himself before his final year is up. Utilizing an ancient site of unicorn power with his own experimental summoning array, though, yields results far beyond his expectations. For the first time in generations, a succubus is drawn into Equestria.


This piece of plot-light smut-heavy fiction was written for Lux Tenebris, for the Summer Sin 2021 story exchange! Lux has a couple stories with some similar themes and content, as well as some longer format plot driven stories too, if you'd like to check them out. And definitely check out the Summer Sin 2021 folder too, there are a lot of great writers participating this year.
