It's a golden age we live in now a days, jobs are plentiful if you know where to look, you have the freedom to settle down anywhere you feel like it and it's real easy to get your hooves on the coolest toys . I use to just take the wastes day by day, never really caring about anything, Couldn't afford it. but one thing i could never seem to shake my softspot for... was kids. Something so small, frail and innocent... doesn't belong out there in the harshness of the equestrian wastes. I've seen the worst of what the Marejave has to offer and if a filly or colt ever has to do the same within earshot of me?... you better pray on Celestia's grave that i don't find you. In the Equestrian wastes out to the west in the Marejave desert, something strange is going on Fillies are going missing, Colts too... some show up dead a few months later, a couple it turns out were kidnapped and either sold into slavery or eaten by canibals but most, most seem to just... vanish. Enter Gear Grinder, a Mercinary with trust issues and a soft spot for kids, while roaming the wastes she finds toruble she never asked for and understandably keeps her muzzle out of other ponies problems, until she hears that kids are involved... so imagine her horror when she stumbles on a hint of what's happening to the fillies and colts that have been vanishing for the last three years. follow the story and join Gear Grinder on her quest to find and hopefully rescue the hundreds of vanished children... before there's nothing left of them to save coverart by : Mangticore http://mangticore.deviantart.com/art/Commission-Chance-at-redemption-544674134
