Long since the birth of the Equestria that Twilight and her friends know ,war was common place. Horrifically bloody battles between Dragons, Griffons, Changelings and ponies were an every day occurrence. To have a day with only a few thousand lost would be considered a blessing for any leader. Celestia was not yet born at the time of war but had heard of the stories from her mother. Stories that horrified her and drove her to be the compassionate leader she is.

But those days are long since over. Peace between Equestria and the Dragons Clans, Griffon Empire and even the changelings stands firm. Sure hostilities brush from time to time for any number of reasons but none wish to begin a millennium long war.

But those are just a few of the "Surviving" races of a war long since forgotten. And as many know civilizations are build on the foundations of corpses. But who's?

The Dragon's? Griffons? Changelings? Ponies? Maybe all of them?

Or is it from a race that had long since thought to be extinct? A race that was once the apex race of the planet Equis. One that was so diverse it could rival the diversity of the three pony races. With magic so strong they could have been considered gods. A race that the Griffons thought they had vanquished to secure a flank and continue the fight against the others. But could a race like the Griffons truly defeat such a foe?

As the snow melts into streams and rivers, returning moisture to the land, and sun graces the land with it's warm presence millenniums later their eyes will open. They will once again awaken and take hold of the reigns of destiny after their long slumber. They will once again take up arms and stand tall before the new world. All will hear their roars as they reclaim what is rightfully theirs. The Lizardmen are returning.

But it has been a long time, things have changed... They have changed.
