"Even the Easiest paths may prove to be the Shortest ones"

For those of us familiar of the show and comics, we may know the path of redemption undertaken by our favourite Unicorn Commander, Tempest Shadow. But however some of us may wonder; what if she didn't take the path open to her by Equestria?

The path to forgiveness is a long and potentially grueling road that takes true courage to take up and determination of heart to stick with, but even the strongest hearts may choose other paths if they find the opportunity to escape their sins.

In this commissioned Story, follow Tempest Shadow in the wake of her exodus from Equestria. There are few choices for a Pony who has known little other than conflict all of her life, let alone whilst on the run… and not all choices lead to a long, peaceful life.

Story content WARNING: In addition to use of vulgar language; This story contains a graphic depiction of DEATH by Hanging gone wrong, resulting in a demise by Strangulation. This is conveyed in both the perspective of the victim and a third party.

Author's note: This is, by no means, a hatefic that intends any malicious feelings towards Tempest Shadow/Fizzlepop Berrytwist on my behalf nor that of the client this was written for.
