It’s the 500th anniversary of the Crusaders’ deaths. Twilight has become more distant, more reclusive as time has passed. Equestria is the most peaceful it has ever been. The princess of friendship has little to do with her subjects anymore. She seldom leaves, let alone speaks of her problems. Numb, to those around her.

Finally, I can show this to you guys. It's been out for almost a week already,  but I've been busy and haven't been able to crank out a video. I know it's Christmas time, and you're expecting something cheery, well, sorry about that. I hope you enjoy this album, I really put a lot of soul into it. It may not be something you're used to hearing, but I hope it's something you can enjoy none the less.

Since this is a concept album, I thought I'd further detail the events of the story in a fan fic. Check it out here: http://www.fimfiction.net/story/357356/fear-of-dark

Here's the lyrics for Faded Light (performed by Strumpet):

cold stone
hello again, old friends
lifelong for some
but not for this one

years go by, and still i can't die
something here is keeping me alive

she said the magic never fades away
but neither does the pain

----------------------------------------

old stone
how long has it been?
the light goes, the dark
holds this warmth

years go by, and still I can't die
nothing here is keeping me alive

she said the magic never fades away
but time dulls the pain


And now, some art credits! In order of appearance
