You traverse towards the western part of the stables. The faint scent of undeath begins to seep into your nostrils, adding an upsurge of unease as you continue down the decrepit path. You can see a pony that’s dark violet in color, donning a ruffled hat whilst shuffling around her hooves. Upon closer inspection, you see a pony laying motionless on its side. The witch seems to be manipulating the lifeless pony in some way.
Pike - “What?! What is SHE doing HERE?!”
The witch turns around with a very livid scowl on her face.
The Maneless One - “You know her?”
Pike - “I know *of* her. It’s Riddlemare, one witch you do NOT want to be trapped inside a stable with. She’s done all sorts of foul things in Equis; We need to get out of here, NOW.”
Riddlemare’s scowl slowly becomes a sinister grin.
Riddlemare - “I see my reputation precedes me, little ones. Come to join in the feast? My hunger has been sated quite well enough…”
Pike - “Boss, why are we still standing here?! Here’s the dirty details: She’s a malevolent sorceress who performs bardic rituals for her own sadistic pleasure. Avoid looking directly in her eyes, this mare can petrify us if we’re not careful. If we don’t leave this instant, we’ll both be boiled and eaten, so…watch out!”
Riddlemare - “I think we’ve had enough talking, haven’t we…”
1. Silently Inspect Riddlemare for weaknesses.
2. Counterattack Riddlemare with Magic(Unicorn)
3. Bullrush Riddlemare(Earth Pony)
4. “You remind me of the mare.”

We're definitely west, and we've met the wicked witch of...nevermind.

The Nameless One - “You remind me of the mare.”
Riddlemare - “And do pray tell, what mare do you speak of?”
The Nameless One - “The One who holds true magical strength.”
Riddle mare - “Could you be more specific? ‘true magical strength’ is a rather copious phrase in Equis.”
The Nameless One - “The kind involving voodoo.”
Riddlemare - “Who do?”
The Nameless One - “No, Voodoo. Dark arts involving the control of others for the benefit of its master. Clearly, something you’ve an artisan knowledge of.”
Riddlemare - “As pleasurable as its been discussing all this, I have a lot of work ahead of me - which now involves you. I suppose I should thank you for interrupting me for such a lengthy modicum of time. It’s bought precious seconds for my faithful servant to do what he does best. "
You twist your head to find the abominable creation from the eastern stables, Mish-Mash... and he's staring directly into your eyes. You don’t have time to react; With two swoops, both you and your newfound friend have been freed of the shackles of existence.
Riddlemare - “Always a loyal servant, Mish-Mash…”
C9 Is officially dead, and he won't be able to play for the rest of the chapter. Sorry bud. Everyone else is able to choose at the last available checkpoint, at riddlemare:
---------------
Riddlemare - “I think we’ve had enough talking, haven’t we…”
1. Silently Inspect Riddlemare for weaknesses.
2. Counterattack Riddlemare with Magic(Unicorn)
3. Bullrush Riddlemare(Earth Pony)
4. “You remind me of the mare.”
(FYI, There IS an option where you can survive this dialogue bit, but you would've had to stop Mish-Mash in the eastern Stables first. You shouldn't have left a mindless killer of death to his work ;p)

It's been moved to the last checkpoint. Pick one of the options below to continue where he left off:
-----------
1. Silently Inspect Riddlemare for weaknesses.
2. Counterattack Riddlemare with Magic(Unicorn)
3. Bullrush Riddlemare(Earth Pony)
4. “You remind me of the mare.”

The Maneless One looks with closer scrutiny towards Riddlemare and her disturbing creations. Although the pony still appears lifeless, there are no signs of magical intervention - there is an incision on the belly, but nothing to indicate something beyond what anypony else would be capable of.
The Maneless One - “…you’re been lying this whole time. You don’t really have magical powers, do you?”
Riddlemare - “You poor pony, clearly you’ve become deluded and confused with all those cutie marks grafted unto your body. I am Riddlemare, an evil Enchantress with a mastery of the magical arts far beyond cretins like you. I’m feeling merciful - I’ll give you a 5 second head start to gallop before making you my eternally indentured servant of undeath."
The Maneless One - “Try it.”
Riddlemare - “This is your last opportunity to escape, pony. I’d advise not to waste it.”
The Maneless One - “I should‘ve known. You’re a witch who can’t cast spells.”
Pike - “Ponies without manes and witches without magic? Yeesh. I’ll admit to being alarmed for my tattooed friend here, before learning this mare was full of hot air.”
Riddlemare becomes noticeably agitated, bites on her lips, begins darting her eyes slightly to the right, then starts charging at The Maneless One. With a twist of The Maneless One’s body, the left hoof slams palpably into the face of the spell-less Riddlemare.
Upon closer inspection, there appears to be a previously unnoticed doorway at the fringe of this dead end. A small glimmer of light can be seen making contact on the musty, blood-stained floorboards.
With a slight push of your hoof, the doorway creaks open with a polarizing stream of shining hue. Nearly blinding you at a glance, your eyelids can barely contend with the surge of light, but you continue to head out into the unfamiliar egress…
The world you see before you is unlike anything you’ve seen. Entire sections of rock and earth float around you - verdant with flora and fauna, yet completely detached from each other. A nearby town of elaborately designed buildings are visible from a short distance; it’s all baffling as you try to process what lies before you.
Pike - “Welcome to a brave new world, boss. Welcome to Equis.”
That’s the end of the chapter. Thanks for playing!

Lol. I will, eventually. I need to get all the ME3 playthroughs done. It may be a while, but it will be made. I can tease a few things that are going to be in there.
-There will be a party member involving Derpy Hooves, but can't say much else.
-Chapter 2 will be named, and take place in the HUB, which was mentioned at the end.
-The choices made, and the choices neglected during chapter 1 will carry through and be written based on what happened. So how characters were dealt with and whether you took certain items will play out that way.

Sounds nice, Dom. And no worries, take all the time you need.
Better a good story which updates slowly than a story full of plotholes and inconsistencies. Plus, wouldn't want you to start feeling this story becomes like a chore to you.

Thanks. I'm going to try to add in a teensy more of the MLP references this time. Since you're pretty much trapped in the stables with no major characters outside Riddlemare and Pike, there's not much you can add outside memory flashbacks, and the poster item. I still wanted it to have that overly-wordy, macabre style of planescape, but enough influence from the MLP world. The HUB is a perfect spot for it, too.

Neo-gothic pony architecture should be fun to see.

No idea. It must be a trap. I'm sending you the coordinates for the evac zone.
And that corruption of the Imperial Aquila symbol is heresy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chapter 2 - The Hub
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stepping out of the dark expanse, The Maneless One and his transitory companion saunter closer towards the nearby town known as the HUB.
Pike - “Alright, I’m going to have to ask it eventually; may as well before we head straight into town….are you one of Riddlemare’s creations? How’d you get there? I’m not trying to intrude, but I it’s fair to at least get some sort of answer. I mean, the whole undead-buddy-near-all-the-undead-killers kinda strikes a bit suspicious, don‘t you think?”
1. “I… I don’t know. My memories seem to come and go, but most of what I remember is from when you found me there.”
2. Lie: “Riddlemare was my former master, but I sought to unshackle myself from her house of horrors.”
3. “I had a memory in the stables… I think I may have been someone, or something before I became…this. It‘s hard to tell, everything came too fast to tell.”
4. “I don’t want to talk about it, Pike…”
