I was not prepared for this...

Centuries ago, the Crystal Empire fell to the evil of King Mi Eterna Sombra. Wounded by the unicorn's dark magic and corrupt heart, the Empire retreated into the ether and took its citizens with it. Many ponies at that time believed the Empire would never be seen again.

Now, in AD 1358, the Second Diarchy, the Empire has returned. With a reluctant princess and a vengeful moon-goddess in tow, can Twilight Sparkle and her friends (both pony, human, and other) succeed in saving it and restoring the Empire to its former glory? What secrets lay in the shining city of Adamanetia?

This side-story takes place between A's and StrikerS. Please refer to the Magical Pony Lyrical Twilight series for information.

The lost children...

Ten long years have passed since the Book of Darkness Incident. In those ten years, Equestria has come into its own as an allied world with the Time-Space Administration Bureau. Though diplomatic interactions between the two are still rocky, cultural, technological and academic sharing has helped to smooth over the bumpy relations to some degree.

In an attempt to foster better relations between the two worlds, the Bureau has established a special joint training task-force, bringing on some of the brightest and most talented mages in all of Equestria. A group of young humans, ponies, and... others have been selected as candidates for this new, experimental group.

Unfortunately for the humans and ponies of the Resolution Instructional Operations Task Force, things are not all they seem. A new threat is brewing; one that may destroy the fragile peace the Bureau has long sought to maintain... and dredge up secrets of a past long, long forgotten.
