*Prologue*

The nightly winds buffeted gently in the skies above; it had no directional sense, no purpose, for what could wind do on its own without the pegasi to control it? Below, the brown, speckled, dead grass inundated the land as far as the eye could see. So depressing. O'er yonder, in the valley below, lie the ruins of the once glorious city of Caballodolid, Espáñeja. The stars burnt brightly with a platinous glow; it was as if those who now live in StarLand were speaking. On a cliff stood an alicorn covered in black cloth shielding all but her eyes.

The mare gazed at the stars. Luna has done an exceptional job tonight; if she is still alive that is. I know that she is! I just know it! I can hear her. I can feel her. I can see her. The mare continued to study the stars steadfastly as though she was expecting them to tell her something. She craned her neck and squinted her eyes to read a small, dim, yellow star to the far left of her field of vision.

Suddenly, the mare jumped back in astonishment as voices and visions overwhelmed her. "The world has lived in a state of anarchy, greed, fear, and evil for 212 years." Spoke a glistening orange pegasus stallion. However, the time has come for this madness to end. 10 shall rise; they shall yield to the screams of suffering. A new war will be fought and immense blood shall be spilt; however, in the end, the flames of justice shall burn through the world and repent the sins of the fallen. Those who fight with justice and honour shall be saved. Those who fight for evil shall be purged into Oblivion."

The stallion dissolved into nothingness; however, a new glow surrounded where he once stood and the mare's eyes became coated in a shining white. "Mi amor, he venido para asegurarte que yo volveré." My love, I've come to assure you that I will return. Said a handsome yellow unicorn stallion with a red mane and tail and a scar under his right eye in a thick Castallión accent. "Sin embargo, tengo que cumplir una búsqueda para mí y todo el mundo antes de que pueda volver." However, I must complete a quest for myself and the entire world before I can return.

"¡Mi amor, vuele ahora! ¡No sé si pueda aguantar más! ¡Por 212 años he esperado por tí; necesito tenerte al lado de mí para recibir tu amor!" Return now my love! I don't know if I can endure any longer! For 212 years I've waited for you; I need you beside me to receive your love! Exclaimed the clothed mare. "¿Qué búsqueda necesitas cumplir?" What quest must you complete? She inquired.

"No puedo decirte porque es difícil de explicar; además, tendré que cumplirla por mí mismo y no podré pedir para ayuda." I cannot tell you because it is hard to explain; moreover, I will have to complete it by myself and I cannot ask for help. Said the stallion. "Yo te hablaré otra vez, hasta entonces, adíos, mi amor." I will talk to you again, until then, farewell my love. He vanished, leaving the sounds of his voice echoing solemnly in her head. "¡No te despidas, vuelve ahora!" Don't say goodbye, return now! She screamed with intense agony.

She sighed, hearing the last of her plea echo to the valley below. She didn't care if the raiders, slavers, or imperiales heard her, for she could easily defeat any ragtag team of theirs that attacked her. No, she wanted him to hear her; she wanted him by her side forever. "Someday, mi amor, we will live together in eternal bliss." The flashback promptly left her mind. "In eternal bliss" she murmured to herself. In eternal bliss.
