Story: The Book of Friendship (Update Chapter 20!)
Author: BillyColt
Description: Twilight Sparkle sent many letters to Princess Celestia detailing what she learned about the magic of friendship. These letters, along with many other writings, were collected into a book. The "Book of Friendship," as it was called, contained many teachings of love and tolerance, sharing and caring.The Book of Friendship
And an organization based around this book sprang up, called the Fraternity of the Joyous Friends of Princess Celestia. And whenever a Brother (or Sister) comes of age, it is their task to spread the word of the magic of friendship across Equestria and beyond.
This is the story of Brother White and Brother Scroll, two young stallions who have been tasked with spreading the word to Earthquake Island. Unfortunately, Earthquake Island is not particularly interested in party games.

Agreed. I dropped it a while ago and after looking through latest chapters I doubt I will pick it again.
Could anyone please recommend a good RariSpike story, preferably a serious one?
So what happened to the Nightly Roundup? Was there no information at all to report?

ReplyDelete@The Hero Pony
ReplyDeleteUmm... Don't believe everything you are fed by the almighty Google. You surely confused the horse manure outta me with your random blah, blah Google says cults blah comment, and refusing to read the story over that. I have no clue what you read, but it's not what I read in this story. I happen to be Christian, and I found no offense in the story, outside of the in story offenses of violent and vulgar ponies harming one another, while a small group tries to teach the magic of friendship to them... Which I accept as part of the story and myself are not offended at a personal level by them at all.
The Book of Friendship is actually quite hilariously crazy. It's dark, in the vein of the three pony races are segregated, and at brutal war with each other on an island outside the jurisdiction of Canterlot and the rule of Equestria. The letters of Twilight Sparkle and friends have been collected by Princess Celestia and compiled into a book, "The Book of Friendship". Celestia builds a society of volunteers to spread the concept of friendship and harmony to parts of the world that have yet to find it. The "Fraternity of the Joyous Friends of Princess Celestia" is actually a loose parody of all those door knocker missionaries you get with various churches or cults. It's done as a comedic parody, set in a very dark land. The side joke is everypony on the island is so disgusted by their friendshippy, happy, buddy buddy relationship, that 99.9% of the island think the pair are doin' each other. The story really doesn't do them any favors... you know... for the sakes of comedy.
Again, I am not offended by the story. I say, give it a shot, and stop letting Google's top hit dictate how you think.
Sigh... All Grimdark. Leaving now.
ReplyDeleteYes! Sunset while I eat my cereal.
ReplyDeleteThe only good grimdark is fallout grimdark ):
ReplyDelete@Forte Canter
Lol wut
The reason there's so much grimdark is because shit happens in stories and this place applies the term really liberally.
ReplyDelete@richfiles
ReplyDeleteWait... they aren't? Cause I'm pretty sure they are gay for each other...
@The Hero Pony
ReplyDeleteI haven't read the story but your comment compelled me to google search myself.
The top suggestions pull up a Japanese manga, and a few different books on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Half-way down the search I see the Equestria Daily link to this story. No clue where you're getting this cult from.
Eh, anyway. Why is it when a few Grimdark stories update, half the comments are full of complaints bemoaning the fact there's Grimdark. If you guys really want to see normal fics update more - start writing them. Simple as that.
I usually prefer grimdark, but a comedy/light shipping is nice for breaks. Oh well, time to read something dark.
ReplyDeleteThat sunset one is really good and I just started reading the sequel to it, I would recommend them, there a good read.
