The raven from Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Raven' is extremely famous. It repeats the word 'Nevermore' and creates a very eerie and melancholic mood. Also, Odin's ravens in Norse mythology - Huginn and Muninn - are well - known as they play an important role in Odin's knowledge - gathering. Another one could be the ravens in 'A Song of Ice and Fire' as the series has a large fan base and the ravens are an important part of the communication system in that fictional world.
A fanfic could be written about Sapphire Shores' influence on the younger ponies in Equestria. It could show how she inspires them to pursue their dreams in the field of music or performing arts, and how she uses her fame for good in the pony community.
I'm not sure specifically as I haven't read it in detail. But it might be about some dark and mysterious events that take place along the shores. It could involve stories of shipwrecks, strange creatures emerging from the sea near the shores, or the secrets of the people living by the dark shores.
The ravens' behavior can contribute to the horror by their erratic flying. When they fly in a disorderly and sudden way, it can create a sense of chaos and unease. For example, if they suddenly swoop down towards a character, it's very frightening.
There was this fanfic where Sapphire Shores faced a setback in her career but then made a huge comeback. That whole arc of her journey from low to high was really engaging and one of my favorite parts.
I'm not sure specifically as I haven't read it. It could be about the lives and dramas of the people in Cheasake Shores, perhaps with new love stories, family feuds, or personal growth of the characters.
Those interested in novels with a strong sense of place would be potential readers. The detailed descriptions of the Chesapeake shores area can draw in people who like to be immersed in a particular geographical setting. Also, people who like stories that combine multiple elements such as love, family, and local culture would be attracted to this novel.
I don't know the main characters in the 'dark shores novel' since I haven't read it. But usually in such novels, there could be a brave explorer who is drawn to the dark shores to uncover its secrets.
