So the last one didn't last very long... Let's do this right! Also, this is the last thread before I take a little leave of absence so I can move and get settled in.

Continued in the next post...
I wonder if that beast was the thing following us when we where heading towards the ruins. Or if that was something else entirely.
Emerald continues down the path with the stream. He doesn't want to go near that cave. It might be the monsters home.
Emerald continues on for a while along the silent stream, making sure to look around and watch for any more of those things...
Between his lack of food and the lateness of the night Emerald finds himself very tired.
He needs to find a place to rest, but all that's around is the stream, the forest, and some hills.
What does Emerald do?
>>27171692
Splash your face with the water to wake ourselves up and if we have some of the corn nibble on it. It's better than nothing.
>>27171621
Take a rest
>>27171692
We'll have to keep pressing forward, even if the poor little guy is tired.
>>27171707
Do we even have the corn still? Not only that, but is it a good idea to even eat anymore of it, if it's all black like that?
>>27171692
Sorry little fella you're gonna have to push yourself. You haven't put enough distance between you and the zombies yet, and that monster is still nearby. Splash yourself with water like that other anon said, and keep pushing forward. Try to make it as far as you can and search for a spot to hide for the night.
>>27171692
splash yourself with some water and take a sip if needed. Let's get on that hill for a moment to see if we can spot anything.
Are we out of the darker part of the forest now?
>>27171621
>Also, this is the last thread before I take a little leave of absence so I can move and get settled in.
Where are you moving to FicFic? Also how long the break? I hope you have a good time.
>>27171692
Do a int check to come up with a way or reason to stay awake.
>>27171692
Emerald we have to keep moving. However go ahead and do a perception check for any good hiding places along the way.
>>27171909
I don't know where he is moving to, but if I recall correctly it'll be around a week.
I'd also like to bring up the question of if they eat grass in the show. Horses apparently can eat grass in real life, so it should stand to reason that once he finds not black grass he could eat that? There might even be flower to eat too somewhere.
>>27171909
Not very far. A week maybe? Two? I'm not sure exactly.

>Body Check
>Rolled 3, Failed
>Will Check
>Rolled 2, Failed
Emerald tries his best to stay awake, but the body is weary and the mind is unwilling. He trudges along, trying his best to keep his eyes open.
Emerald splashes some water on his face, and takes a nibble from the corn in his backpack. It helps a little he supposes, but he feels like he is going to pass out.
Emerald walks a few more minutes and finally sits down for a quick rest.
Emerald looks around. There is still the hill and the forest, but he thinks he sees a path to a small clearing ahead.
What does Emerald do?
>>27171988
Emerald slap yourself awake. Think about the danger if you pass out now! Get the adrenaline going! Also go to the clearing.
>>27171988
(Image Number 666)
Walk in the path
>>27171988
EMERALD! WAKE THE FUCK UP! YOU ARE GOING TO DIE IF YOU SLEEP NOW, OR WORSE! You will never see Joyride or Ruby or Hope or Sensoria again if you drop, so push yourself to at least find some place good to hide.
>>27171988
Alright, he's gonna need to crash, is there some brush or anything he could pile on top of himself? If he can do that, he can at least take a nap and be a bit hidden.
It wouldn't be the most cozy nap but hopefully it should keep him somewhat hidden.
I'm worried about that monster thing and if it's still following or not.
>>27171988
Emerald find a high tree branch, a large rock, or large bush to hide in. If we must sleep then sleep in a place that hides us or covers us would be best.
![1137256__solo_oc_edit_sketch_grimdark_earth+pony_colored_male_foal_colt[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/Z7e8oCt.png "1137256__solo_oc_edit_sketch_grimdark_earth+pony_colored_male_foal_colt[1].png")
Be careful Emerald otherwise you will serve Shodan well....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyTDjK4uuS0
>>27171988
Let's carefully see what's in the clearing and then find a secure place to hide and sleep.
>>27172154
I think sepulcher might have a borg type deal going on making lots of experimental "drones" to suit his needs.
https://youtu.be/pbEi1isW3kQ
>>27172223
all the more reason to avoid him and his undead minions.
>>27172011
>>27172042
>>27172052
>>27172079
>>27172094
Emerald looks around for a suitable place to crash and hopefully be hidden from view. He sees a large nearby bush. Emerald crawls underneath it and digs out a little place he can sleep for the moment.
---
"-there right? I don't see anything" a voice whispers, causing Emerald to open his eyes in fear.
He isn't sure how long he rested, but he does feel a bit better than before.
"Well it must be. Can you sense any other living things are in this forest?" a voice says back, "Call the Lady."
Emerald carefully pushes a few leaves aside to look out. He sees two Undead standing slightly back and looking at the bush.
What does Emerald do?
>>27172382
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GA8vB6TLO20
>>27172382
Well it looks like the undead can see living things.
I think we have two options here. Either we try the book or we book it and run like the wind.
>>27172426
>try the book
I think we should try to get some distance first.
>>27172382
Use magic missile to knock them into each other and run.
>>27172382
Should we wait long enough to see how it is they will call the lady first?
>>27172382
Does that mean go call the Lady or somehow communicate from here?
>>27172382
Use the push spell and knock them on their asses before they can alert everyone then use the bludgeon and bash their skulls in and hopefully kill them. After that book it book horse.
>>27172451
>Use magic missile to knock them into each other and run.
Can't, magic missile only works on living things.
>>27172382Shit shit shit shit.Can we bluff em? Make a noise like a feral animal. Maybe we can convince them we aren't what they are looking for.
And if that doesn't work we can either try to bash their heads in with our club before they call for help, or at the very least offer to give them the book if we can walk away.
We're really hard pressed for options here. Damnit, of course they'd be able to sense living things. But uh, why didn't they catch us earlier if that's the case?...
>>27172426
The running would be a more valid option if Emerald wasn't dead tired already.
>>27172456
I really don't think we should wait for that, if we're gonna do something we need to do it fast.
>>27172382
I think it's time to run to that clearing.
>>27172382
Emerald do a bluff check and make animal noises! See if that will fool them.
>>27172461
I wonder if we should be using our magic in our weakened state
>>27172489
I'm not sure that would work. I think this place seems is void of life in general besides plants and even those seem half dead.
>>27172382
Should we step out and feign surrender, before they call her, and perhaps pump them of information before we take them out and/or run for it?
>>27172498
I was thinking the magic would be more of a mental drain, but it has show to be a physical drain too, so you do bring up a good point.
>>27172382
The bush pone face tho
>>27172555
Celestia could poke an eye out with those shoes...
>>27172555
Isn't it great?
>>27172555
If you combine both it makes it look like Celestia and Emerald are doing something in that bush...
>>27172555
I didn't even try
>>27172585
You are right about that. Just cut Celestia and put her in the top corner of the bush.
>>27172603
Aww man, you are right, that would have been so much better
>>27172608
well you or someone else can give that a try.
>>27172382
Whatever we do make sure they don't have time to contact the lady knock them down or something fast
>>27172382
Emerald do a percption check on the distance between us and the two zombies. Can we take them out or distract them in some way?
>>27172382
Emerald quickly look around! is there something around to stop them from calling the lady?
>>27172382
Emerald prepare your push spell and club and get ready to fight!
>>27172382
Can we sneak out from the bush without being seen?
>>27172426
>>27172461
>>27172478
>>27172484
>>27172489
>>27172498
>>27172539
>>27172535
Emerald attempts to make animal noises to fool the two undead.
"The heck is that...? A squirrel?" One of the undead asks.
"Of course not. Can't you sense how big it is? It's a pony. I think anyway." The other undead.
Emerald throws caution to the wind and stands up, casting his push spell to knock the undead away.
They fall to the ground and Emerald runs to the clearing, hoping to find something to help him escape the forces that are after him.
however as he runs his vision starts to go spotty and fade away, and the last thing he sees is himself tumbling to the ground as two withered looking ponies and a giant, skeleton like creature approach...
---
Emerald wakes up. He groggily tries to get to his hooves, but he notices they are all connected to chains. He appears to be trapped to a wall.
"Ah, you are awake." something says.
Emerald looks around, and sees a robed creature wearing a horned mask. His robe is badly tattered, and Emerald can see the dessicated look on his front legs. His frotn legs also seem to hold gauntlets with weird attachements coming off the end of them, one of them clawed.
"Now. Tell me what you are doing here, intruder." The masked pony says.
What does Emerald do?
>>27172710
Truth, Bluff, or Lie. What should we say to him.
>>27172710
This is really bad...
Tell him we are Emerald Jewel and ask what his name is.
>>27172710
Well this is a terrible position now isn't it? We should cooperate until we see a chance to bolt.
We were passing through on a ship and were attacking, we didn't mean to intrude.
>>27172710
The time is coming
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXnaVxt7N4s
>>27172710
Tell him that we are lost and are looking for the the city port.
>>27172710
Say we are really sorry for everything. We fell off a boat and have been lost. Trying to find our way out.
>>27172710
I don't know where -here- is
>>27172710
Tell the truth. As far as we know they're really nice ponies. Maybe they're outcasts from the other undead because they didn't like to kill people and that's why they're here in their shitty compound on the mainland instead of on spooky skeleton island.
>>27172710
Meh, just doing what any stranded islander dos.
Walk around try to survive and amass arcane knowledge.
>>27172741
>>27172746
>>27172747
We stole the book we are not getting out of this on friendly terms. We have to think fast or we are taking a trip on Mr. Sepulcher's wild ride and I don't think Joy will be able to fix us.
>>27172710
Well we shouldn'ta tried running like that, nor should we of used magic, I think that's what caused him to faint like that....
Well fuck, might as well try to salvage the situation as much as we can.
>>27172747 I like saying this better. It's truthful, but not saying everything.
And we were exploring around the place. We took the book cause we thought it was something of interest.
We certainly weren't going to stick around and let them get a hold of us. We doubt the dead rising out of the ground were there to give us a big hug.
>>27172710
ask where are we and why are we chained to the table.
>>27172710
Who be you, senpai?
>>27172778
It's time for the generic necromancer boss fight
>>27172710
Wtf happened to us?
>>27172710
Emerald do a int and percption checks. Gage your answers carefully whatever the result.
>>27172710
Say we fell of a boat and went ashore. We've been wandering around ever since... (Don't say much further.)
>>27172803
Things didn't quite work out for us.
>"The heck is that...? A squirrel?" One of the undead asks.
This bit also made me laugh.
>>27172710
Guys look at the head I think this is Sepulcher
If the zombies can sense living creatures, how were we able to hide back in the ruins?
>>27172817
I meant the spontaneously passing out thing.
>>27172778
Believe me I considered that, but what else are we going to do?
>>27172710
Emerald do a perception check and see what else is in the room.
>>27172843
Perfect! Thank you sir!
>>27172824
>I meant the spontaneously passing out thing.
Ah, well I think that's a result of using magic while Emerald was pretty close to being exhausted already. That coupled with trying to run away just didn't work out at all.
>>27172843
nice
>>27172843
Playing Hide and Seek with Celestia.
>>27172843
>When celestia finds out ammy's family and joy are talking shit about her
>>27172710
do we have our gear
Maybe we should of kept walking instead, but he sounded like he was gonna pass out anyways so that might of been just delaying the inevitable. It was either pass out in the bush or pass out while walking.
>>27172843
>bushes have grey outlines
>not bothering to take care of the white
>not just shopping Celestia behind the bush while keeping her other hoove in the front so the outlines don't get fucked
Its shit
>>27172898
Perhaps you could fix it then?
>>27172710
What else is in the room with us?
>>27172710
Hmm... at this rate I might not have to write that bad end.
>>27172967
let's try to win this.
>>27172967
Damnit, don't you start too. We can get out of this....
I'm not giving up on Emmy.
>>27172898
Excuuuuuuuse me princess.
dude, that is a load of fucking shit. like 100% shit. its damn obviousl you wanted to force him into this situation whether they went into the forest or not. its very much transparent.
>>27172988Now that you're on it, the green background is kinda distracting
>>27172994
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETfiUYij5UE
stop with the trolling numnuts, you guys know its true.

Emerald says that he was stranded after being thrown off his boat, and that he doesn't even really know where he is. He mentions that he is only looking for a nearby port city.
"Ah, so you were with those intruders who destroyed my Kraken. I see. So what is with the colt disguise? And why steal my holy book if that is all you are. I can sense your anti-magic properties, and something even I don't recognize. You better be truthful to me, whelp, it's the only way you leave here with just a peaceful death." The masked pony says.
Out of the corner of his eye, he sees Lady Elegance sitting in a corner, gazing at him suspiciously as possible with a skull face.
What does Emerald do?
>>27173039
>Doesn't even know how to reply.
>>27173052
If I was in disguise, why would I be keeping it up now?
I gain nothing from looking like a colt right now.
>>27173052
>it's the only way you leave here with just a peaceful death.
try not to cry
>>27173052
To prove that we're a colt, we should start balling our eyes out.
The heck knocked out Emerald?
Honestly, tell him about the necklece, he might actually know what it is, or have some general idea.
And tell the truth, last thing we need is to make an island of undead have a genuine reason to dislike us.
>>27173074
Maybe emmy can turn into a crying quivering mess for sympathy points?
>>27173052
We didn't know the book belonged to anyone. We thought this place was abandoned. We are trying to learn magic you see and we thought since it belonged to no one that we could take the book and learn from it.
(This is of course only half true. but he might believe it. Who knows if he thinks we are interested to learn his dark arts maybe he wont kill us?)
>>27173052
>The masked pony says
Ask him if you pulled that off would he die
>>27173100
This is probably our best bet
>>27173052
The book called to us...and we wanted to know what was inside.
..... really dude? this guy is so stupid that he can't even realize he is a colt, hell having anti magic properties would mean that he COULDN'T disguise himself as anything at all.
or that this place would look 100% deserted to, well, EVERYONE.
>>27173100
This is the best shot we have basically
>>27173106
He's a big guy
>>27173052
Tell him we are indeed a colt. The amulet is our mother's. if it is magical we wouldn't know it. Urge him that we do not wish to die.
>>27173052
We're just a colt, we have no reason to lie. We took your book because we didn't know anyone here was alive or well, -animated,- and we've been trying to learn magic.
Ask if they know what became of the ship the kraken attacked?
>>27173088
Highly doubt it
>>27173106
FINALLY someone says it. Faith in the board restored
>>27173052
How could we disguise our self if we're covered in anti-magic wouldn't that ruin the magical disguise?
>>27173052
Sense to feel if we still have our knife.
>>27173052
>"Ah, so you were with those intruders who destroyed my Kraken.
Oh good, they persevered, I was pretty sure they would. But you never know for sure...
I know you must be damn near scared Emerald, but stay strong, we'll try to work something out.
Tell him you're not disguised, just a kid who rode a boat with pirates and now you're in way over your head.
As for the book... We took it cause it looked interesting. A poor reason i'm sure, but we weren't about to stick to see what the zombies wanted. We thought it was the key to finding out what happened to the village that was left in ruins.
>>27173132
This too, since it's anti magic, we shouldn't be able to disguise ourselves,(there is potions i suppose, but i don't know if they work that way either).
>>27173052
Tell him that there was something of that book that called to us. We didn't know it belonged to anyone. Say we are sorry for taking it.
>>27173052
try to feel if we still have our knife. We might need it.
>>27173052
we're just a colt having a REALLY bad day
>>27173052
Tell him we don't want to die. We didn't hurt any of the undead and you got your book back. So please don't hurt us.
>>27173052
Ask him how we would die? What is he going to do to us?
>>27173181
I don't think this is the time to get kinky
and other people pointing out that plot hole with the somehow disguise with anti magic going on thing.
how about we rewind this story to before you decided to force this situation in? thi is my first time looking into this and already i see the fault and obvious manipulations.
>>27173194
Actually I'm just curious how he is going to kill us.
If we know then we might be able to plan ahead.
>>27173207
Oh my god fuck off already you clueless shitlord.
>>27173231
and how is me pointing out an obvious contrivance me being a shitlord?
if he went into the town, he would be captured obviously. and he ended up captured anyway cause convenient guards.
besides that i the issue with these stories. the writer can, and often does, cheat.
>>27173244
Oh my, the zombies that went to search the forest were searching the forest. How contrived indeed.
>>27173248
Indeed or at least someone is far more salty than needed.
>>27173248
sighs. whenver someone sorta like something and someone criticizes it, even if pointing out a legitimate flaw, its always either a troll or someone baiting. not one or the other.
>>27173254
Nah just /cyoa/ half assing it as usual.
He's a colt with an amulet presumed to have a demonic enchantment and magic doesn't work on him, which means they cannot scan him.
They have all rights to think we are a demon in disguise or something.
>>27173258
I think Emerald either over exerted himself or the dark wizard was there and koed him before we saw him. It don't really matter now...
>>27173231
>shitlord
>>27173253
search the forest inspite of the fact hostiles able to kill a giant sea monster had appeared off of the coast and could attack at any time. very logical to waste manpower when a group that dangerous is around.
and its obvious they are gonna come in and save em here. its the only place emerald could ahve ended up, and they would have been forced to come here because of the damages to theri boat.
>>27173052
I guess we have to come clean start crying to convince them we are a colt and say how we fell off the ship and found the abandoned town and saw the cool book we assumed had been left behind, and all we want to do is go to the port.
>>27173282
We don't know that for certain. Besides the pirates were trying to outrace the navy. Plus when we came to on the shore we saw no ship anywhere.
>>27173052
try to be brave and tell them the truth. Also try to feel if we still have some magic or our knife.
>>27173277
Shitlord was a thing long before tumblr, you moron.
>>27173282
Are you kidding me? They didn't even know anyone was in the forest! As far as they know Emerald is the only one around.
>>27173052
tell him we meant no harm. We are just a scared, lonely foal.If there's something anti magic about us then we don't know what it is. We didn't know the book was holy or that it belonged to you. All we know is that it called to us. urged us to take it and learn from it.
Point out that so far he has everything back, and we didn't permanently harm or kill any of his followers. Is death such a thing that we deserve?
>>27173342
>>27173148
>>27173100
I wonder if mentioning the book calling to us will surprise them. That detail might even spare us.
>>27173318
It's still a tumblr-ism. And it proves that you're a newfag.
>>27173353
I guess it might not hurt, if not to stall him. The more stalling the better. I don't know what stalling will do, but at least that might give is more time to get a better bearing on our options.
>>27173353
Alternatively it may mean it wants to take our soul
>>27173369
Stop replying to bait and eating the thread faster
>>27173375
Well if the undead sleep by day. then if we could outwait them they might go away.
>>27173353
Good idea. Tell them that we did not steal the book, but the book wanted us to open it.
>>27173382
>Alternatively it may mean it wants to take our soul
True, I didn't think of that...
(I hope Joyride can get our soul back...)
>>27173393
Nah mate, we basically already sold it to her.
>>27173369
Hitler ate sugar, he was evil, therefore eating sugar is evil.
That's the logic you're using.
>>27173398
True, that's why she'll want it back.
>>27173342
>anti magic
Maybe this is why Joyride hasn't been able to contact us.
>>27173458
My guess is she sent us a letter and it plopped into the ocean and turned to mush while we were still out
>>27173477
Yeah that sounds about right.
>>27173052
Ask him what it is you guys do here?
>>27173052
We took the book because we thought no one lived here and that the guy downstairs was dead. When we ran into the bell guy we tried to talk to him but he panicked and rang the bell scaring us off.
Tell him that we tried to talk to the bell guy but he rang the bell and chased us away.
>>27173052
FicFic you asleep?
>>27173620
Yeah boi I'm dyin here
Don't leave me in suspense
>tfw OP fapped and fell asleep
>>27173648
Well I mean, a helpless chained up little Emerald; who wouldn't?
>>27173648
I was busy with the peaceful death part myself.
>>27173666
Alright satan, were this a less life or death situation, it would be kinda kinky.
>>27173691
>t would be kinda kinky.
Maybe Joyride could have someone roleplay with us then.
>>27173702
Sounds like something up her alley. Assuming we ever get to see what her "alley" looks like.
>>27173718
>She finally lets us have a glimpse at her "alley"
>This plays in the background
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scRrn_YMxLc
>>27173744
I'd lose all composure.
>>27173718
>>27173744
>>27173782
Emerald while chained in the basement in front of some kind of undead horror possibly staring his death in the face suddenly has an image of Joyride's pussy flash in his head. He has no idea where it came from but decides to sneak a peek next time he sees her.
>>27173744
That's actually some chill music in the right mindset.
>>27173821
That's, the stark contrast of the inappropriateness of the situation would make that funny, but i'm more worried about Emerald.
I'm trying to imagine how he's gonna get out of this one.
I wonder what it's like for Fic to read all the banter, all the guesses at the situation we're in or possibly will be in.
Well if i was a QM I know I would enjoy them a lot.
![large[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/RnhHans.png "large[1].png")

Well it's official. FicFic is asleep. I hope it's as peaceful as Emerald's is.
Special thanks to the anon artist who drew this!
He's so cute.
>>27173936
I bet for the most part they'd be entertaining, especially since he knows what he has in mind afterall. But at the same time it must be a bit disheartening to read some comments.
>>27173990
I think I made his head too big for that, i'm annoyed that I didn't really notice till I looked at it more than a couple of times.
Glad you like it though.
>>27174026
Oh! Thank you for coloring this! Uh, by the way do you have a artist name you go by?
>>27174051
Np, and no, no I don't.
>>27174095
Uh, do you have link to uncensored version?
>>27174095

>>27174101
Oh, oops.

Didn't meant to do that, lost my head for a moment.
>>27174095
Okay, I was just wondering who I should credit.
>>27174129
Psker stop
>>27174139
Huh?
>>27174129
It's fine, I just don't feel like posting with a name cause I don't care about getting credited.
>>27174172
Fair enough. I've noticed that Hipsanon is being used more and more I wasn't sure if you had officially taken that name or not.
>>27174185
I don't want that to actually be what people address me as,(it's not like i'm offended or anything) but that's what some people have taken to calling me. I guess i'm not gonna worry about what people do.
It's funny how I didn't want a name for myself, but people ended up doing it for me. I can see why they did it though, it's easier than saying: the person who did ____ or ____.
>>27174231
Ironic isn't it.
I don't think I'll every fully understand this site and their behaviors.
>>27174242
It's not hard to understand.
Content Creators get a name
Random faggots don't
>>27174242That arrangement of last 4 numbers amuses me.
People in general are fickle. I try to go with the flow most of the time, if I can.
>>27174231
That's how it goes a lot of the time. If you don't take a name for yourself, show up frequently enough, and people will bestow a moniker upon you, I've seen it before. It just means people like what you do. It's the curse you must bear
>>27174260
Yet, I'm a content creator as well. Oh well...
>>27174260
Dude c'mon, chill would you? Don't you wanna see Emerald doing cute stuff? Not gonna get to see that if people start arguing again.
>>27174264
I suppose.
>>27174269
What content? Do you write or draw? If so, I bet you have a name, but it's only to be used while you're talking about your own content.
I'm a QM for another quest, but I NEVER use my name outside of that thread, because it would be rude to Ficfic to do so.
>>27174277
Honestly, I was here for the story of revenge and magic, along with /ss/
And Ficfic hasn't been doing much of either recently, so I'm about done with you fucks.
>>27174277
>Don't you wanna see Emerald doing cute stuff?
>implying Em isn't gonna be another corpse in a chair guarding a belltower at this rate
Our dead ass'll have to sit on books so we can reach the rope, but still.
>>27174316
I'm not giving up on him. I honestly don't know how he's gonna get out of the situation, but we'll just have to take the situation in stride.
>>27174302
Yes I've written some here.
Care to say which quest you QM for?
I'm sorry that the cyoa has disappointing you as of late. Personally I've been really engaged the last few threads. Perhaps some R&R and coming back at a later time would be for the best for you.
>>27174316
>Em isn't gonna be another corpse in a chair guarding a belltower
Well maybe it will still be a somewhat cute corpse. Hopefully better than cyborg horror.
>>27174296
Hey, I hope you don't mind me asking, but I remember seeing a coloring request for this pic a while back and I was wondering if it ever got colored?https://data.anonpone.com/archive/coltquest/wVowGyX.png

can you try replacing his blue lines with either black or a darker tone of green?

Ah nah that's fine, I don't mind.
I should try shading the bodies too, i'm just lazy and stuff.

I have to say you do a great job coloring these. Let me know if you ever wish to color more.
>>27174443
Thanks anon.
>>27174444
You can go ahead and drop some links for some, it's something to do when a picture is starting to bore me and I need a break from it.
And thanks.
>>27174443
>why do you wanna change em?
the blue lines are clashing with the green, black is more "neutral" so it looks more natural, either that or dark green or some darker tone to complement the mane/coat's lighter colors, kinda like how they do them on the show
>>27174452
Okay, here's some. two are lewd and two are not.https://data.anonpone.com/archive/coltquest/6SohKMj.pnghttps://derpicdn.net/img/view/2015/12/22/1050051__oc_explicit_shipping_sex_foalcon_foal_colt_riding_artist-colon-ficficponyfic_demon.pnghttp://i.4cdn.org/mlp/1461468023632.pnghttps://data.anonpone.com/archive/coltquest/1443664323934.png

Emerald moves his back leg a little to see if he still has his Knife of Subtlety. He can still feel it, so clearly they didn't take it from him like they did his bag... Or he supposes it's technically their bag. Emerald also notices they didn't take his amulet, though that is probably not for a lack of trying.
Emerald tries to explain that he is just a colt with a very unlucky streak, that he was on the boat that the 'Kraken' attacked and that he got flung off into the water. He ended up wandering the forest for a while and then came to this village. He didn't even know the village was still occupied, and he took the book because he wanted to read it. It looked interesting. He makes it clear that he didn't however, because the book tried to call out to him and it freaked him out. In addition he says that undead coming after him would freak anyone out, so of course he ran. Also, if he was in some sort of magical disguise how could he do that if he was currently anti-magic?
While he says this Emerald starts to tear up and sob. he can't help it, but in the back of his mind he hopes that maybe it'll buy him some sympathy. He cries that he doesn't want to die.
"There are a few ways to disguise oneself without magi. Potions chief among them. And I'm not going to rule out that you are harmless quite yet. We found a focus among your belongings, and the powerful anti-magic field around you concerns me. I am quite adept at magic, intruder, and not even I can figure out how to overcome it. Whatever that locket is, it has been powerfully enchanted." The masked pony says. He then shifts a little and continues, "Why was the boat you were on crossing through my territory in the first place?"
What does Emerald do?
>>27176467
Cause our captain is a brash fool and nearly got us killed,(and possibly will still yet) and didn't avoid going through the straight like his advisor warned him he should.
They were running from the navy on the account of stealing back zebra treasure from them.
What does he mean by the "holy" book?
What happened to all those ponies in that village?...
Why is the grass and vegetables there all black?
>>27176784
I'm pretty sure they have a necromancy cult going, so the book is probably a necronomicon or something
>>27176467
Kinda off the central topic, but, locket? I thought the necklace was an amulet, locket would mean it contains something actually inside, right?
>>27176792
I guess, but i'm interested to know more specifically. I especially want to know if the wanting you to open it is normal or not.
>>27176843
Unless Fic made him say "locket" on purpose, i'm gonna assume it was supposed to say "amulet" instead.
But that would be interesting if it turned out to be a locket instead.
>>27176784
Emerald says that the captain of the ship was trying to escape the Navy by going through the strait because three warships were waiting on the other route.
The pony taps his mask in thought. Emerald waits a few moments and then asks what happened to all the ponies in the village.
Lady Elegance springs up as high as she can go in the small room and says, "Master Sepulcher will be asking the questions, prisoner!"
Emerald cowers, and the masked pony raises a shriveled hoof.
The undead construct relents, and goes back to her corner.
"And why was that ship running from the Navy?" The pony named Sepulcher asks.
Emerald says they were running because they stole some war booty back from them. Zebra artifacts that didn't belong to them.
"So, Pirates then." The pnoy says as his eyes glow brighter and he shifts his half-spear, half-scepter to his other shoulder, "And what was a colt doing on a pirate ship?"
What does Emerald do?
>>27177086
My crazy mom dragged me along!
>>27177086
I'm an Apprentice to their advisor.
A pony you might have heard of, Joyride.
>>27177086
Catching a ride with the pirates. We were headed, to somewhere we're not even sure of exactly, but we think were almost there before this happened.
>>27177116
Let's say this too, I'm not sure we should be lying anymore, but I don't think think they'll be able to call us out on it either way.
>>27177122
Hmm is it wise to show our cards like that?
>>27177122
Plot twistLose puss is not in good terms with these people
>>27177122
Too much info that could be used against us no doubt.
>>27177131

>>27177147
The only reason I want to is that Joy is basically a mary sue in Fic's universe.
I Guarantee you that they'd be scared of her or something. They might not believe that we're actually with "the great and terrible" Joyride or something, at worst.
But honestly, we're at rock bottom here. Might as well try something
>>27177163
While that could happen I suppose, i'm more worried about them using that as an excuse to do something bad to Emerald if they knew he was with her.
>>27177163
Just to back up my assertion, I did that Mary Sue test on Joy Ride.
She's not got ALL the qualities of a Sue, but she's getting there. I also only used stuff we KNOW about, so the Score could get higher as we learn more.

Emerald says that his Mistress dragged him along and that her name is Joyride and that if she ever finds out what happened here she'll be really mad and destroy them.
"Joyride?" Lady Elegance says. The undead doesn't have any eyes, but Emerald can almost sense that if she had any they would be sparkling right now.
Sepulcher puts one of his clawed, mechanical hooves to his face and sighs.
After a few seconds the pony in front of Emerald says, "Do you have any proof of this, intruder?"
What does Emerald do?
>>27177468
THE DILDO, QUICK
>>27177468
Who else could craft an amulet like this?
>>27177468
Maybe they could let us send a message to her?
>>27177468
Wait, why would LE be excited about that? Or happy? Or whatever it is she was feeling, it's hard to tell.
Well she made our focus for us and taught us our magic. Give us a dragonfire lamp and we could send a quaint little message to her, where are we by the way?
>>27177504
Unless it's been lodged in his butt this whole time, we don't have it.
>>27177468
I betcha Joyride fucked these guys over before. Shouldn't of told em
>>27177468
Maybe we can say something personal about her?
>>27177585
I feel like we shouldn't of told them either, but it's too late for that now, might as well roll with the punches.
>>27177585
>>27177593
While I voted to tell them, I was the only one.
Everyone disagreed with me, but Ficfic went with it anyway.
Kinda weird to be on this side for once.Train noises in the distance
>>27177585
I dunno maybe Joy bumped clams with lady bones over there, why else would her nonexistent eyes be sparkling?
>>27177615
It's hard to say for sure that was a bad idea, hell maybe it'll turn out that was a good thing we mentioned her.
>>27177624
But would that mean she was a pony before she became, whatever she is, or do you mean she got freaky with something resembling a monster? I wouldn't put it past the kinky old goat though.
>>27177683
No, I still think it was the best course of action, but I don't like my idea being chosen when it was voted against.
That means that Ficfic railroaded this section, although that's been clear since everyone voted to burn the church, but Ficfic didn't.
Okay, gotta go run errands. I'll be back late.
>>27177695
My bad, I misread the posts. I thought people wanted to mention Joyride for the intimidation factor.
>>27177779
That was my goal, yes, but I was the only one advocating it. I understand it can be hard to follow the discussion sometimes.
By the way, I don't consider Railroading a universal evil, but going directly against player vote entirely is not something you should do.
>>27177695
The only reason I even cared about saying it was cause I was worried about how they would treat Emerald after they know he's associated with Joy.
But if it turns out fine then I don't care.
I don't think he did it on purpose. The thing about all these responses though, it that it's hard to determine how many people said what. Nothing is stopping you from voting for something multiple times, other than posting the same way.
>>27177779
I wondered why this prompt was so early in the day. I think that's why it took someone a half an hour to respond.
>>27177468
>if she had any they would be sparkling
...did we just run into some of Joys fans?
I think this might have been a good thing.
>>27177955
Or at least one fan. I'm really really curious to know how she knows Joyride now.
>>27178062
Maybe one of her many former partners?
>>27177955
Or her eyes are sparkling because now she can get revenge on Joyride for some past transgression
>>27178084
if that's true maybe she'd let us have a go. I bet she could do some lewd things with that stinger.
>>27177468
Tell him that focus was from Joyride and that the she was teaching us how to use it for magic. She also was the one that booked the passage for us on that ship.
>>27177955
This skellady taught joy everything she knows about necromancery, after that joy killed her and then turned her into a skellady
>>27178084
Could be, but unless we ask directly,(which I don't think she'd take kindly to Emmy being so nosey) we very well might not find out any time soon, if at all.
>>27178101
>Or her eyes are sparkling because now she can get revenge on Joyride for some past transgression.
That's also a uncomfortably real possibility.
>>27178101
>>27178130
>>Or her eyes are sparkling because now she can get revenge on Joyride for some past transgression.
>That's also a uncomfortably real possibility.
If so then they might keep us alive long enough to lure Joyride here.
>>27177468
Tell them that the only proof is my word and that focus book. (And the knife but we are NOT revealing that just yet.)
>>27178122
Doesn't seem plausible to me, but it's not like we know everything about Joy that there is to know.
>>27178141
Well that'd be a better chance of escaping than we were looking at before, if that proves to be the case that is.
>>27177468
Ask him "what proof do you need?"
Let's turn the tables on this question.
>>27177468
Well, we know what her cutie mark looks like so that could prove we met her also we know how she got it so it could prove we know her personly.
>>27177468
I just got a brilliant idea. How about we bluff and say that Joyride was in contact with us before the dead got after us and we'll need to contact her to say that "everything is fine." otherwise something bad might happen to everyone here.
If the ploy works then we will be able to get some sort of message out that confirms we are alive to Joyride and they will think they have the upper hand.
>>27177468
Describe Joyride to them. Wears a mantle, a unicorn, has a perverse sense of humor, has a star and omega for a cutie mark.
>>27178255
I think that would be a good way to prove that we know her, yeah.
>>27178264
This'd be a great bluff, but unless we come up with a reason why she'd just know where we're at, i'm not sure it's gonna work.
In the bluff she'd know where we were at before we were chased, but unless she knows how these individuals work,(like where they would hideout at) she'd have a hard time finding us.
Unless we could convince them that she could hone in Emeralds focus or something.
>>27177468
>>27178319
"Proof? You need proof? Well you can ask her when she get's here."
"Joyride has a way of tracking down the focuses she's made and she'll eventually find this place and us. And she'll be VERY unhappy if she finds her newest partner dead or gravely harmed."
"So do you have a way for me contact her? Tell her 'I'm fine' and 'not to worry'? Otherwise she'll be coming and soon."
How's that for a bluff.
>>27178408
It could work I guess, maybe Emerald should be a bit less brash about it though.
>>27178408
>>27178454
Agreed. it was just something off the top of my head. You can rewrite it to fit the character better.
