Over forty-thousand years ago, there existed only a vast space of nothing...
Slowly, order began to assert itself, and two powerful twins were born. One was an alicorn, the sister; the other was a dragon, the brother. Their bodies at points were able to diffuse into a giant mass of smoke, and other times grow compacted, solidifying themselves to be as hard as diamond. Over time, their bodies stopped morphing into different creatures. The twins were able to use magic, but their anatomy and use of magic were different. Despite their difference in creation, both of these celestial twins ruled the entire universe, and none were more powerful than they. Both were mighty gods of all the twelve realms of the entire universe.
To ensure that the universe maintained its balance, the twins divided the realms between themselves. They both had similar powers to keeping the universe in balance. But in time, the brother became dissatisfied with what he had. He want more space, more planets to control, and eventually came to the conclusion of wanting to rule and own everything the universe had to offer. Fueled by greed, he began expanding his territory until it began to encroach the sister's part of the universe. The sister tried convincing her brother to turn back from the chaos he was creating within himself, but he chose not listen and gave in to the greed which eventually consumed him. The sister, believing in the power of reason, decided that she would punish her wayward brother.
After millenniums of her many pleas, trying to win her brother back to the side of peace and harmony, she finally said that she would leave him the entire universe as his domain, but then asked, "Is this grossly swollen body of yours not a burden? Will it not stress you as you travel about your territory."
Upon hearing these words, the dragon immediately shrank himself in size. The affects of his shrinking caused him to feel weaker, even his magic. This however had been the sister's plan all along, and she pounced upon the small frame of her brother, smashing him in and through planets. She tossed him all about the twelve realms of the universe and made sure that he had not one drop of strength left in him to fight back.
She trapped him on a distant planet, threatened him and said that it will be his home for the rest of eternity, and that if he dared breaks his chains it will be his last. Once he figured out that he was tricked, he was wroth against his sister. Tears trinkled down his cheeks as he grumbled and tried to break free of his chains. But was too weak to overpower the chains of his sister. The alicorn flew off to another part of the universe leaving her brother all alone. The angered brother vowed the day of his release that it would be her end.
Now with her brother unable to interfere, she was able to bring about order and reason throughout all the universe without her brother which was now chaos in his place. From then, she took the responsibility as being ruler of all twelve realms. She ruled for quite some years, but the responsibilities of keeping the twelve realms in balance was too much for just one goddess. She decided to travel about the universe in search of a planet that wasn't fully formed by her brother.
After traveling for quite sometime, she descended upon a planet that wasn't fully formed and without anything upon its face. After finishing the formation of the world, she disbursed into a mass amount of tiny particles of magic giving birth to a new world. The magical particles brung about many mystical creatures of all kinds. The large fragments of her body brought about powerful deites: Empress Lucena, Emperor Astrim, and Emperor Vulgaranis to name a few. It has also brought forth the twelve giants of the entire galaxy which were called the twelve "Zodiacs of Harmony".
Every Creature such as ponies, zebras, gryphons, cervids, buffalos, and so forth were all created based off all the star constellations in the universe. The mighty alicorn's purpose in creating them is such manner was for them to be in complete harmony both physically and mentally with the universe.
The ponies were created into three major variations, the earth pony, the pegasus, and the unicorn. Other variations came through the adaptation of their world. The earth pony was created with strong and muscular bodies able to lift and move extreme weight from one place to another. They have studied and practiced the first battle styles and stances of war, starting the trend of war practices and others techniques of war. The unicorns were usually the smart variant which were created with horns. They were the first scholars, and they learned how to use the magic skillfully and learned how the patterns in the sky connected to the world. They also have written the first books of all the ologies. And The pegasi variant were created with wings they have been given the abilities to travel on clouds. It was never said how the pegasi variants could walk on clouds, it was just believed that they always could, and that it was apart of their nature to do so.
The first generations of ponies took on the responsibility of keeping peace and order in their world. They also tried to keep the balance together with the "Zodiacs of Harmony" to keep the universe forever in balance but weren't successful. The world was unable to continue its creation for the ponies had no control of their powers, and left the world in a state of confusion.
Until a few had learned within themselves the purpose of their existence and had evolved to into alicorns, which was considered the next stage of a pony who has fully achieved the understanding of her role in the world of Myloria. They had full control of their powers and were able to manipulate the environment around them. And that was when the rest of creation was to be completed.
The sun and moon rose and fell through the powers of Lucena and Astrim, and thus time was created. Snow, rain, and storms were each given their proper times, and so the seasons were born. After the creation was completed, order was given to all of creation, leaving the world which was the mighty kingdom of all the universe in perfect balance. All the realms of the universe made Myloria the centre place of all harmony.
The dragon, now chained to a group of planets with no life, could only look on from afar in jealously as all of this took place. His silent greed grew, enormous, within him. His scales became thicker and tougher from his great hate towards his sister. His nails grew longer and sharper. And the darkness he created within consumed his face of beauty and turned his face, his very demeanor to look like that of a diabolical menace, slowly breaking his chains which he longed to be freed from.
His greed and hate was so powerful that evil beasts started forming from his dark thoughts in many different places across the universe, even the home of the alicorns, destroying everything they could find. The alicorns tried many methods of ridding this evil. At times, they had successfully purified the world of these evil creatures, but in time they would come back even more chaotic and with more hate than before. And thus the first monsters were born.
From the point, it was all out war between the equines and monsters. The monsters were powerful and killed many equines that oppose them. All the equine races united in the "Great Fortress" which was created by the great mind of Emperor Vulganaris and safely fought the terrifying beast as one through the rest of that war. The alicorns who had claimed victory of this epic battle called it The Alpha War.
But there was no guarantee that the victory was everlasting. The dragon was not angry, for it was apart of his plan for the darkness to take in root on that planet. For once he is free from his chains, the world would doomed to ultimate destruction.
If by chance the power that kept the order of the universe were to grow weaker, and The Alpha War was loss, then the world and perhaps the universe would've became a very different place...
