Captured Curiosity

First published

Life in Equestria was rather uneventful for Anon. His friends had restored magic several months ago, and his day to day antics weren't anything he'd call extraordinary - even though he lived in such a unique world now. Though, one day after returning from the ruins of Canterlot with Sunny, he comes across a rather peculiar find.

An ancient spell book, with notes and instructions leftover from its previous owner, caught his eye. The contents within offered wonders and skills he could only dream of. The ability to conquer a pony in both body and mind was something he felt couldn't be real, but as the creeping dark magics from within the book morphed his ideals, he couldn't help but find a desire to test things.

Fortunately, he had a rather naive friend in Sunny Starscout to try the book's spells on.


This story is set in the same world as Uncommon Practices and its sequels, though it is many many years in the future.

My first time trying to write a bit of G5, so I hope it isn't too bad!
