To Find Equilibrium
When Synth Meadows is consumed by darkness after the Mane 6 beat Nightmare Moon, will he be able to gain control, or will the darkness consume him entirely? What will happen when the 'good' in him challenges that darkness and drives him to insanity?
Synth Meadows works with plants, that's his true calling. But fate has other plans for this stallion. Thrown into the Nightmare Moon fiasco, he is marked with a curse that will make him question how he perceives life. And will his will to fight that darkness lead him to make the wrong decisions? This will lead him to the edge of his mind to wonder if he'll ever be the same again.
Follow his journey through the known and unknown as his past haunts his present and the future remains a dull shade of grey.
Side Notes:
Under massive revision at the moment, on hiatus until I've finished revising.
This story is, in all manners, a retelling cliché with a twist. I feel obliged to mention that, because while I enjoy such stories, I'm sure others don't.
