Since the dawn of pony kind, when our ancestors first discovered the killing power of fire and magic, blood has been spilt in the name of everything from Harmony, to justice, to simple, psychotic rage.
Before Equestria, we fought. Not for protection or survival, but to end those who were different. That all changed when six brave ponies banded together under the banner of friendship, to unite us in one nation.
It was an illusion. Before long there came an era where the ideals of friendship gave way to greed, selfishness, and a jealous reaping of dwindling space and natural resources. Lands took up arms against their neighbors. While friendship, was all but forgotten.
The apocalypse occurred much as we had predicted. Plunged into an abyss of balefire and dark magic, the world was nearly wiped clean of life. A great cleansing; a magical spark struck by pony hooves quickly raged out of control. Megaspells rained from the skies. Entire lands were swallowed in flames and fell beneath the boiling oceans. Ponykind was almost extinguished, their spirits becoming part of the ambient radiation that blanketed the lands. But it was not, as some had predicted, the end of the world. Instead, the apocalypse was simply the prologue to another bloody chapter of pony history.
Thousands were spared the horrors of the holocaust by taking refuge in enormous underground shelters known as Stables. But when they emerged, they had only the death and poison of the wastes to greet them. That was until one small pony stepped through the door of Stable 2. On that fateful day, the injustice which had clogged the skies was removed and Celestia’s sun was able to once again shine upon the wasteland.
They called her the Lightbringer and rallied to her name. Group after group rose to fight against the wasteland.And our bloody chapter of pony history came to an end, but if the wasteland has taught me one thing, it is that the places, actions, and ideals may change… but hostility? Hostility never dies.
Please remember that when you go to sleep tonight.Learn from it and don’t repeat the mistakes of our ancestors, squandering this second chance that Littlepip has given us.
