Professor Sump of the Canterlot Magic Academy has gather stories from the times of Sombra, Star Swirl the bearded, and the good king (who founded Canterlot as a royal city). There are many who would not want these stories to ever see the light of day, but Professor Sump will have his say. For, as he would say. the need of our world requires that truth be brought to light. These stories may seem fanciful, but are the best recounts from that period in our dark history.
