!! Story's Summary from [=FimFiction=]:
->Gatekeepers are a strange bunch. They always come in pairs, one Equa, the pony world, and one on Earth, the human world. They live in each other’s minds, share their dreams, and take on each other’s characteristics – magic included. Most importantly, they are called ‘Gatekeepers’ for a reason; each pair controls a set of portals that bridge the gap between the worlds.
->But with each Gatekeeper comes a new challenge for both worlds. The first brought magic to Earth and gave the changelings a taste for pony flesh. The second shattered Earth’s sky and gave a princess clarity. The third brought the first glimpse of Oblivion, the devourer of all reality…
->William Ross was a normal high school student; emphasis on was. Now, he’s the first Gatekeeper, and his partner is none other than Queen Chrysalis. With his body now warped beyond recognition and his mind trying to reconcile his old life and his new identity as Alvarium Rex, king and father of the changeling race, William struggles with the challenges of everyday life colliding with the supernatural.
->For a while, things seemed to be calming down. Then the second Gatekeeper appeared, then the third, the fourth, and so on. Soon, a whole cast of characters have their counterparts marching around on a world that is not quite ready for magic yet. Tensions mount and tempers boil; where will he be when it all erupts?
