Part 2: naterrang.deviantart.com/art/C…
Part 3: naterrang.deviantart.com/art/C…

It's finally here! Part four! We've come a long way, but there's still 3 parts remaining! Once again a big thank you to and Mallac for providing input and advice on this leg of the journey! Most of all though, I have to thank whose superb dramatic readings of my comics is the primary motivating force to finish this project.

This is also the first part of this comic that was entirely rendered in Manga Studio 5 EX.

Anyway, on to the next part! We're nearing the homestretch now!

EDIT:

Obabscribbler just finished the next part of the comic dub! Check it out:

I read through this again, so I could refresh my memory before part 5 comes out. But, wow the feels from this are still very much real. This makes me cry everytime I read it, and it really makes me thankful that I haven't experienced such loss in my life.

I don't really understand why people hate on Rarity because of this. Like, did you lot not read the panel that says she was coming over to apologise?
How would you feel if you were fighting with someone at school that wasn't started by you, but you decided to take responsibility and apologise to said person, and you tried to get to that person by climbing over a bridge that was in threat of snapping, and the bridge snapped in the process, and said person and their parents come to your rescue but it costed the life of the parents, and although you apologised to the person countless times you are still getting nitpicked and blamed on? At least Rarity apologised. What else would you expect from her?? I'm not saying she isn't entirely in the blame, but there are two sides to every story.

I know this isn't too new, but have you watched season 4? If so, what was your opinion? Just curious to see someone else's perspective, can't wait to read this comic, so many feels but so good of a read ;w;

NaterRang In reply to CeilingFen [2014-08-01 21:38:39 +0000 UTC]

Right now I'm shooting for an August 12th released date for Part 5.

-As for my thoughts on Season 4, I wrote a number of episode impression journals in the past. If you want to know what I thought, you can check those out. I'll offer a brief summary though:

Season 4 is a mixed bag. It had some fantastic episodes, and some of the worst in the series so far. I think it's better than season 3, but not even close to consistent quality of seasons 1 and 2. While I'm definitely going to watch Season 5 at some point, I don't have much enthusiasm for the show anymore. I think the writers are really running out of ideas and don't understand what made the show so good to begin with. So yeah, Season 4 had it's moments, but the series best days are behind it.

All that said, I still love the characters and I'm not going to stop drawing ponies anytime soon. I'm just not as interested in the show as I used to be.

That was my original target date, but it looks like the release is going to be pushed back to this weekend. I'm close, but with work and other responsibility, there's no way I'll be able to finish it by tomorrow.

Just a few more days! ^^

NaterRang In reply to CeilingFen [2014-08-02 20:51:56 +0000 UTC]

I like all the ponies. But if I had to rate them:

Rainbow Dash and AJ would tie for first, Rarity in second, Pinkie Pie takes third, Fluttershy fourth, then Twilight.

You need a license to gather all these feels sir/ma'am! You can't just parade them around with no sense of order! People might get all wired up and not know how to handle themselves!

CrystalStarArtNight In reply to princesspeachfanart [2014-07-31 06:01:15 +0000 UTC]

Might as well agree, but it wasn't REALLY fully her fault. She and AJ were fighting in school but Rarity felt bad and came over to say sorry but the bridge was broken and did you even READ the part where AJ said Rarity was gonna say sorry about what happened at school? It's half Rarity and AJ's fault (Well, it's 100% the bridge builder's fault who is the one I truly do blame) because of not getting along with each other, but unlike Applejack, Rarity found the right place in her heart to say sorry about that but ended up saying sorry for AJ's parents death scene instead. Seriously, does EVERYONE ignore the panel where Rarity was saying sorry?! Not trying to sound rude and sorry if I did but Rarity was coming over to say sorry to Applejack for what happened at school and said sorry for the parent death scene as well she ended up doing. Rarity had remoarse and felt bad. It isn't 100% Rarity's fault, (IT'S THE BRIDGE BUILDER, I OBJECT HIM/HER! LOL XD) and Rarity was only a filly, she didn't know what she was doing.

Picture this:
You and this person at school were fighting each and every single day but one day you realize it was rude and mean of you to do such things and thought the fighting was slightly silly because both of you were young kids. Yet you needed to climb over a poorly done bridge. You climb over but it falls apart because the terrible bridge builder and the person you were mad at had their parents with them and they try saving you while your ready for your death. You wouldn't be hanging from that rope bridge if you and that person weren't fighting all this time, wouldn't you? Rarity was able to live and forget both of their mistakes and was hoping for Applejack to do the same so pretend you and that person had the same thing between you. You were hoping for them would forgive you for silly mistake but soon their parents die and they're so filled up with sadness. You came over to say sorry for fighting at school but you end up killing that person's parents. You were hoping they would forgive you for childish things but NOW how will they forgive you for this? You would be so sorry and scared that they won't forgive you for killing their parents and worried they would hate you EVEN MORE than they did before the school fighting. Fighting in class is ONE THING, but killing their parents is another. They might hold a grudge against you and wouldn't that worry you? That's how Rarity feels. Worried about Applejack about the parents death scene. AJ's parents were HELPING Rarity because of the good nature in their hearts. This is how Rarity feels. Rarity never planned on to do it on purpose. She's sorry and Applejack forgives her, in the last panel Applejack finds the right place in her heart to forgive her. Yet, your hating her even though Applejack feels the opposite of you and forgives her.

Rarity was only a filly as well as AJ in the canon series she and AJ get along fine, mostly after the "Look Before You Sleep" episode. AJ and Rarity forgot all about that and putted the past in the past. They moved on and grew up. Rarity was trying to say sorry and killed AJ's parents BY MISTAKE!

WHY do people ALWAYS ignore the panel that says Rarity was coming over to say sorry, JUST WHY!

Sorry if I sounded mean or rude and typed a whole rant based upon on your comment, but I just couldn't get over people ignore the panel saying Rarity was going to say sorry. Trying to be friendly and point out stuff but seriously.

Sorry about all of that

I'm just tired of people hating on Rarity because of this comic, I'm fan of the comic and it makes me sad about the death scene of Applejack's parents, but this comic ISN'T EVEN CANON! No need to hate on her that badly.

Sorry but still and sorry I keep saying sorry
