In most times of my life, I've shown to be somewhat of a poetic person. I have a belief that I always seem to stick by. The things you enjoy your life will always be available for you to experience, but will never last forever. As chapters close in on your life, new chapters are opened. A chapter of my life as ended and I'm soon going to be writing the newest the chapter going forward. And with going forward, comes the decision to leave behind what you've been enjoying. I'm leaving the site ...

So just a fair warning. This might be a long read. I'm unsure at the moment since this is the first thing I'm typing out. I'm not sure how long this will be, but I guess we'll see. Sooo...this is actually something I've been interested in doing. I wanted to maybe write out a cool little thing on my experience with Rping as A genderbend, or more importantly Prince Artemis. It's kinda like a behind the scenes look of how I kinda go about stuff, or maybe just gives one an idea of how my brain works...

"I wonder if such a thing could exist. A weapon that was so pure and powerful, that it could eliminate all manner of Darkness with just the tip of the arrow. Hearing it and writing it, sounds like a work of fiction. An old tale one tells to their children to pass on legends of battles and wars. Still, if such a thing did exist? I know who the owner used to be. The Artemis Bow. A bow that was given to my Mother before my own birth. I've seen this weapon first hoof. Elegant gold at it's base and c...

"Mother? What would you describe to be a good decision vs a bad decision?" "Brother and I were trotting back to the Castle, whereas on the way, we stumbled upon a Noble colt getting bullied by what appeared to be his classmates who were also from Noble families given the school uniforms. He was being teased and pushed around as they taunted him in a circle. I simply observed, finding it soon to be none of my concern as I have no relation to those ponies. Brother, however, took action, stepping ...

"I'm not crazy! I never was! I know where I am! I know what I am! I know who I am! My name...my name...my name is Black Rose. I am...no...I was a former magician under the orders and surveillance of Nightmare Moon. I was...taken! Taken from my family in order to serve our Dark Leader! Our glorious darkness in the harmful rays of the light. I'm not crazy. Don't think my writings are fiction! What I speak is real!.......The Nightmare has fallen. Defeated. Gone. The Sun Ruler has bested him. Us. Al...

Prince Artemis just couldn't take his eyes away. No matter how hard he really tried. He just couldn't understand it. How could such a beautiful creature be made with his help? A beautiful mare that is sure to grow up and take on the world. A mare that may be fierce and clever, but at the moment was sound asleep. Lilith Moon, a precious mare that is to be growing up too fast for him already. Watching her sleep seemed to bring peace to him, but also. It seemed to bring back a special memory. ==...

Yep, this is something I haven't done in quite awhile. Me, talking about my writing habits as well as decision towards my Artemis character. This isn't a Lore Expansion or anything Just me writing (technically typing) about my character process. Figured it'd be fun. I'm in a writing mood, and I need to satisfy it. If you were looking for lore or something similar? Sorry, not here. You can go back to scrolling or whatever it is you do. Here's a fun beginning fact or piece of info. Artemis is s...

(Disclaimer: All characters mentioned are exaggerated actions and views of what my Character views them as, as well as what they think the actions of them would be. This is in no way myself speaking or claiming to know how your character acts or would act. If your characters are mentioned, note that I don't claim to these actions to be Canon nor possible. This is all simple deception and theory to drive a story narrative for my Character) The night is upon me. The sounds of darkness are back to...

Seems with every glimmer of joy presented before me, the universe finds a way to remind me of the disgust I have towards a certain problem. Said problem seemed to be invading my mindscape at the moment. Such is the hardships of absorbing a Tyrant Level Arcane Spirit.  "Seems you've been busy, Artemis Luminous." The Spirit spoke towards me as he stepped forward to look eye to eye with myself.  A rather disturbing appearance this Spirit had. Dark as knight coat, with hinges of deep blue. Pierci...

"I just....I need wisdom in my actions. I need...guidance. I know that we have a plan. He got the solution to defeat this Tyrant. To end his games. B-But....what if it isn't enough? What if we can't kill it. I don't fear my own death. But I fear dying before I can guarantee a safe future for the ones I care about..." He was frustrated. The weight on his shoulders, that is usually shared with his Brother, was more present then ever. He was sick and slowly dying. Each passing day his sickness was ...

Within Canterlot Castle laid a secret chamber. A chamber used for the purpose of performing and discussing secret acts of Arcane Performance. The World of Arcane was never predictable. It was never assumed to be safe. It was always dangerous. No matter if one masters it or is considered an expert in the field. Arcane is always unsafe. The need for caution was always a priority. Therefore, a secret chamber for Arcane Performance was as safe as it could get. And the current acts going on inside th...

In an unmarked location within the Region of Equestria laid an old temple. A temple that wasn't seen or discovered on any map of the new age. One that was hidden with ancient magics and powerful curses. This temple was one of the old ages. It's architecture of carvings and stone showing it's lush history. It's rich history decaying as each century passed. A temple that housed something of value within it. Something of worth. Something that was worth more then any amount of bit, any amount of kno...

If you were to ask me if the Sun and Moon were around before the birth of the Two Princes, I'd have to say that I can't remember. Some would say that both sources of our sky were born as we were. Others would state that the Sun and Moon had at a time controlled themselves. Regardless of how you look at it, The Sun and Moon are the key factors of what made me and my brother the stallions we are. Call it luck or call it fate. We were born into this world to serve it. To provide the lights through ...

Part one of a breakdown of the Canon set for Artemis ----------------------------------------------------------------- 1133 years ago: Beginning of the United Era ...

The Castle wasn't the first name that was considered when making a Rp Group. Canterlot Castle was to be the official name, however it had soon changed when the sound of it in action seemed rather....cringe. Therefore the words 'The Castle' seemed to fit a better style of title. So much so that it is basically its own brand. (Not really) During the beginning stages of The Castle, Kirra, Velvet, Levi, and Chloe did not exist. It was originally meant to be a Castle with unnamed Lunars, Solars, a...

"Do you know one of the best feeling in the world as I'm writing this journal entry? Having a room. A well fitted room, nothing too fancy as it's suppose to be for ponies that are traveling into the village for trade or rest. Still when me and my Lunars and some Solars had trotted our way into this late night village, we probably should've expected the reaction we got." ====================== *One Hour Earlier* ...

The observation of a bat pony is something that will always seem interesting to me. A creature that resembles a pony, but has the survival capabilities of a bat. Ears designed for intense hearing and sound. Slick wings for fast and swift flying. Fangs for carnivores or defensive attacks. Usually dark colored for stealth to keep them from dangers in the night. Eyes created to see in the dark. All these things designed into one pony to make the ultimate survivor with the only downside being, they ...

The year of being officially 20 years of age was one of the most important moments in my life. That whole span of 365 days were the foundations of how I became what I am today. Things between me and Brother at the time had grown rather poor. We did nothing but argue to one another on topics and discussions. There wasn't one moment during this time period that I could remember not having some full out head collision with my brother. The Kingdom would soon suffer along with us too as it ended up b...

(?): What are thy words which my ears are deciding to hear? Are you speaking that Mama's Village is currently unavailable for approach? As if I, your Dark Lord, does not possess the power to do so? (?): My Dark Lord, it would appear that Mama and her village had run into some fortune for the time being. The Moon had decided to pour darkness close to her lands. The birthing of new creatures is currently taking place. It would be unwise to disrupt the process. As you are always aware....rebirth...

Lord Somber: "I have an interesting experiment for you to participate in, my most precious Apprentice. This test is to see if you have been taking in any of my wise teachings. For understanding how to view life correctly? It aids in understanding how to view Arcane. For Arcane is in everything we do. And seeing is one of many things we constantly do." My Master's words seemed to seek in subtly upon my body as he looked before more. Being inside the Throne Room, next to my Master was not an od...

"It is not a matter of discussion at the moment, Nightmare. It's not a discussion I'm willing to have in general. What you speak of? The power? The Limitless abilities we could gain? That'll only lead to targets. Targets placed on our backs. Our Kingdom's back. That is something I'm not willing to put into debate. It isn't an option I see taking place. My Future? Our Future? Isn't set in stone just yet. Hasn't been formed yet. Jumping into the area of threat will only make us the threat. We aren...

"Father. I'm having a hard time in understanding this lesson you've given us this past week. When I listen to you speak, I feel as if it all makes sense. Yet,....reading it out fights my doubts towards it. Is there a way to get a better explanation?" "For such cases, shouldn't I also be prepared?" "My Own Kingdom?" "Well....I'd seek out to be a King that is loved and cherished. A King that does everything possible to keep his citizens happy. For a Kingdom of Happiness is a Kingdom worth livin...

Before the reader of this journal starts their journey into the personal dairy that is in these pages? I'd like to inform you of a few things. The daily life and expectations of a Lunar is a constant danger. Our purpose of becoming, training, and fighting is for our Kingdom. As well as for the rulers of our Kingdom. And because these things are such high importance, they are also extremely dangerous. So much so that the expectation of death is something to never ignore. Death is apparent and rap...

I'm still unsure of the amount of days I've spent on this project of mine. Sometimes hours blend with days. Days blend with weeks. And weeks blend with months. Regardless of how long I've spent on this project, it'll soon be fulfilling its purpose. Lord Somber must be killed. This is the right course of action. A monster such as him shouldn't be allowed to breathe within this world, much less rule a Kingdom. No....This Kingdom deserves better. Better leadership. These parasites we call civil...

"Hahaha...haha...hahaha....This has to be weird. Writing down the action of me laughing. But....How couldn't I! Finally! He took some damage! It was true! It was all true! The Bow! It was there! We got it! And we took it from Torment!...Oh my heavens...I can barely process all this. I gotta take some breathes and catch this journal up with what happened." "The Zebras have done a fine job on fixing my wings. They are wrapped and set into a sling. Both of them. Meaning, I won't be able to fly ...

*Beep* *Beep* *Beep* *Beep* Jethro, Grand Wizard: "All levels seem to be as they should be. Good physical muscle structure. Good levels of sugars and water. Standard heart rate. All other tests seem to show normal results for an Alicorn of your age." King Artemis: "Well that's good to hear. Was worried that worse could be going wrong with my body. At least it is able to function as it should. Even with the increase of sour news hitting us all lately." ...

"Gahh...dammit...dammit...dammit....I hate this stupid thing!" I was in a place of irritation. Currently myself, Prince Artemis, was overseeing the progress in the Artifacts I have taken into my care. Artifacts of ancient and powerful magics. Six Artifacts that were named to be in existence, but with a slight chance of a Seventh also existing. Such artifacts were lost to the world as time had moved on, hidden away to be forgotten about. At least that was the intention. Those weren't my intention...

I just seemed to lay there. Laying there with nothing going on except for the continued breathing that my body was doing. Along side the breathing of my sleeping beauty that was accompanying me in my sleep. My eyes were closed, but my mind wasn't. These past weeks have pushed me towards an area of exhaustion that I wasn't sure was possible. What's funny about that tho, was that this was still only the beginning. As Prince of the Night, Future Husband, and Father? I never would have guessed that ...

??? "Ahhh! Ahh! P-Please! Please....j-just..no more. No more please. I-I have done nothing of notice....Nothing of value. I'm just a nopony! Ahhh!" ??? "It is rather sad to hear you refer to yourself as a simple nopony. Where as here? In this space? You are providing purpose. You are involved in the steps for future knowledge." My name is Arold Murk. I am a unicorn blessed in knowledge and will. Brought into this world for purpose. Gifted to this land in order to change it. I may not kno...
