[Sad] [Dark] "Don't let the 'Dark' tag scare you off; this is, after the fashion of the Discord episodes, all about how even the darkest of times can contain light for our favorite ponies. This is one of my favorite stories I've read from this fandom, and carries every possible recommendation from me." -Pre-reader who likes sky pirates
