Celestia and Luna… To the average pony, they are the true rulers of Equestria. I mean, they've been around since Discord! They have to be the true rulers, right?

But they aren't. There is only one true ruler of Equestria, he isn't female, and he certainly isn't a pony. He is me. The Prince of Darkness.

"I am Lazarus. Ruler of Evil. Author of your demise."
