He doesn't know much of who he really is and only lives for the purpose of helping others. He is considered undead and was cursed to be immortal. His injuries heal immediately and he feels no pain. Anon has a lack of certain emotions such as jealousy , romance , and selfishness. He can not take off his armor due to a curse that fused it to him. He dose not travel on horse like other knights but he instead travels mostly on foot. Through his career , he was proven worthy of being a protector of the innocent and even the not so innocent. He has shown signs of courageousness , loyalty , honesty , and generosity. Anon spends his days to walk through the lands of the realm to only do what he thinks is right and righteous. Many years of this cruel and dangerous way of living has shown him that there can still be good out there. No matter the amount of demons , monsters , and abominations has ever made him think of the world as a totally evil place. It has shown him that there is no way of changing the past , but to live in the present to make the future better. His future however will be changed drastically... CHAPTER 1: It begins The surrounding area was dark and ever so silent. Old leafless trees were at every corner of the Forbidden Forest. Fog was everywhere in sight and made it hard to see within its thick grasp upon sight. The crackling of a torch was filling in the silence along with the snapping of twigs. Our courageous knight , Anon was leading his way through the heavily wooded area. He swore he could hear faint whispers speaking in a unfamiliar and possibly inhuman dialect. Anon was used to such things as many other journeys and crusades across the realm have made him resistant to fear. There was no sign of any other living intelligent life anywhere. Anon was alone and possibly lost. His map of the forest was destroyed in a fight with a pack of fire conjuring husks. He tried his best to remember where to go and what to look out for but it proved rather difficult. Suddenly a loud snap got his attention along with a pressure around his shin. Anon looked down and saw a large rusted bear trap latched onto his right leg. Without much thought , Anon carefully took the old and forgotten trap off his leg and tossed it aside. Anon continued to direct himself through the forrest until he came to a halt. In front of him was a large wooden plank bridge that led to the Castle of the forgotten elves. This was exactly what he was looking for. He had heard many things about the castle and what riches it might hold. This didn't stop him from carefully observing the rotting bridge. Considering his curse , he could just run across and pray for the best , but he took a look down below. It was nothing but a dark abyss that hid what horrors were hidden below. Anon took a long breath and got ready to run. Anon bolted as fast as he could to get to the other side. He wasn't even halfway there until the families roaring of a hydra came from down below. The heads of the serpent demon arose with their scale covered necks. Anon had no time to fight and tried not to be devoured by the monstrosity. He made it just in time before the bridge collapsed and was more than willing to run inside the castle. Anon bursted through the large worsen double doors and locked them in hope of the hydra to forget his presence. It worked and the hydra went back in it's long slumber. Anon studied his surroundings. Old weapons , armor , and tools were scattered about. Anon didn't bother to take anything and went into the only hall that wasn't closed off. It was obviously a library and had bookshelves covering every inch of the walls. Most ofthe books were written in elven while many others were soiled and tattered by time. Anon was not after the books , but was after a valuable relic that was looked upon as a tool of the gods. He was not sure of what it's appearance would be but it most likely will stand out more than a colossus in a meadow. Anon kept on walking until he spotted a rather peculiar sight in front of him. A floating translucent shining orb hovered in mid air. It reached high enough to his chest and had a strange aurora around it. He felt the undying urge to grasp it. Before he could even come in contact with it , his vision became blurry. His vision began to fade slowly as he fell to his knees. He tried to reach out and grab the orb but fell onto the ground with a metallic thud. He began to have visions quickly pass through his mind until he lost complete consciousness. AwakeningChapter 2: Awakening Anon came back to consciousness after what felt like an hour. His lungs longed for air as he inhaled what he could. Everything that happened before was crawling back into his memory as he struggled to get up. He stumbled and used the nearest item to prop himself up. He felt dizzy and nauseous when he got up on his own two booted feet. The weight of his armor couldn't bother him since it became part of him , but something about his surroundings felt different. After breathing heavily , Anon looked around and noticed the castle walls were gone. The Forrest surrounded him once more and the fog has disappeared. Instead of dead trees , everything showed signs of life. The hard dry ground now had plentiful plant life and the sounds of numerous animals would occasionally fill what used to be silence. He didn't know if he should be frustrated to have been taken off path of his quest or to be happy knowing that everything seemed peaceful. Anon observed the environment around him and went in the direction he believed was west. Many long hours passed as he traveled through the many trees. He could have sworn they were glaring at him. He grew tense and slightly paranoid as eyes peered at him behind the bushes. 'This forest must must have some sort of paranoia curse!' Anon thought to himself. This still didn't stop the feeling of being watched. Anon looked up and saw sunlight beam through the thick leaf covered branches. 'I must hurry if I want to get out of here before the night comes!' Anon thought nervously. Anon went through the forrest as fast as he could. The taunting sounds of howling stopped him as he reached a small clearing. Anon held up his claymore with his right hand and held up his shield with the other. He scanned the area before spotting a large pack of timber wolves come out if the bushes. They growled as sappy liquid came out of their mouthes. Anon has had many encounters with timber wolves before and wasn't afraid to make himself higher on the food chain. "Attack if you dare!" Anon shouted as if the timberwolves could understand him. The timberwolves wasted no time in charging at their prey. Anon waited for them to get into perfect distance. A timber wolf attempted to pounce onto the knight but was met with a claymore going into its mouth and through it's hard wooden skull. Anon bashed a second one in the jaws with his shield and pulled the sword out if the first one's skull. He swiftly cut the second wolf's head in a downward motion. A third wolf tackled him to the ground with a strong force. Anon snapped its neck and threw the body at another upcoming wolf. He stood up and grabbed his sword and shield. One wolf the size of a horse charged at him head on with accelerating speed. Anon raised his claymore into the air and arched it back before throwing it at the behemoth. The claymore impaired through it's forehead , killing it instantly. The other wolves fled from combat as soon as they noticed that their leader was vanquished. Anon slung his shield back onto his back and took his claymore from the wolf's head. He sheathed it before kneeling down onto the ground and put his hands together. "Yet again , I thank you lord for giving me the strength and will to go on living. I would like to thank the for good that is in the world and for all of those who try to make the world a better place. Amen.". Anon got up from his usual prayer and went on through the forrest. He was once again interrupted by another noise. This one seemed different. After getting closer to the source. It was the sound of humming! It belonged to a beautiful feminine voice. Anon pearled through the bushes and saw a yellow pegasus with pink hair humming a tune while taking care of small wildlife. ' A sentient pegasus?! What in the name of heaven is going in here? Maybe that orb was a rift between realms like the others I've seen.' Anon thought to himself. Anon fell over a root that was poking out of the ground and landed on the ground of the meadow. He heard a worried gasp coming from what he assumed was the pegasus. He looked up and saw the pegasus coming over to his aid. He pulled himself onto his feet with the help of the kind pegasus. She looked him over for any injuries. "Are you okay there big guy?" She asked as if she didn't know he was intelligent. "I am fine madam." Anon said in a reassuring tone." I'm perfectly fine but I thank you for your concern." "Y-you can talk?" She asked while slightly cowering in fear. "Last time I have checked." Anon answered jokingly." I don't recall pegasia having a mind of their own but I am willing to get used to it. If you don't mind me asking , what is your name?" "I'm Fluttershy." Fluttershy answered." If you don't mind me asking , what's your name?" "I don't know." Anon said while half pondering what his name was before he changed it. An hour or two was spent in Fluttershy's cottage. The time was spent asking and answering questions about each other and information of this land. Apparently it was named Equestria which explained why ponies were the main sentient creatures. Anon was told many things such as magic , Ponyville , the elements of harmony , and the bearers of them. Anon and Fluttershy were going to go meet her friends but it began to pour rain. Hours passed by as Anon helped Fluttershy around inside after telling her that he would like to thank her for her hospitality. "It's almost time for bed , sir Anon." Fluttershy said using the knight version of his name. " I have a bed I. The guest room if you would like to sleep in there." " I don't sleep." Anon explained. " I can only sit and rest due to my curse. Would you mind if I use your fireplace?" "Not at all." Fluttershy said while smiling. " I understand if you would like a night light." Anon ignored the comment about having to need a night light , but he didn't explain that he could only rest at bonfires. Anon ignited the fire wood and sat down and stared at the flames as they danced around. He always felt comfort when around fire and was content with the fact that this realm was less dangerous than his own. He spent the rest of the night staring at the fire while Fluttershy was sound asleep upstairs in her bed. He could tell that life was going to be a bit easier. Dawn of new beginningsThe sun rose from the horizon and shown forth a new day. It's magnificent rays of warmth shown the beauty of the land below. It was the beginning of a new day in this strange world for our hero. Anon gladly helped Fluttershy with her animals. While this was seen as odd behavior where he is from , it was the least he could do to repay Fluttershy for her kindness. Many would often try to avoid the knight until they needed him. Anon had never really felt like this before. The only time he ever felt wanted was when he joined the military. Fluttershy remembered that she would introduce the knight to her friends and was more than happy to do so. The walk to Ponyville wasn't a long one but it was long enough to get a good sight of the environment. Even after the rain , this land still shown it's warm and beautiful landscape. As soon as the two arrived in Ponyville , everypony would go silent when they saw the knight. Low whispers were shared between each other and move out of their way as fast as they could. Anon saw that Fluttershy had a worried look on her face. Anon knew what he must do. "Do not fear me , citizens for I have come with no intentions of causing havoc!" Anon announced as he held his hands up to show he was unarmed. This seemed to calm them down , but that didn't stop them from speaking of him. Anon had no control over this , and knew that they had their right of free speech. All he wanted to do was to avoid them from panicking. Fluttershy seamed to be rather pleased about this and gave him a warm smile. It didn't take Anon long to see the castle ahead of them. It was made of pure crystal and resembled a tree of sorts. It amazed him on how much beauty there was in this world. He felt out of place... Not just by looks but also by the thought of how this world was way more peaceful than his realm. " Anon , look over there!" Fluttershy said while gently tugging on his hand." Those are my friends I was telling you about!" Anon looked ahead at the ponies , Fluttershy was pointing at. They were seated outside of a... House made of candy?... Well anyway , they appears to be having a conversation and didn't notice him nor Fluttershy. Fluttershy told him to stand still while she went over to say high and safely introduce him. Anon waited for her to wave him over. "Howdy there Flutters!" Applejack said in a good morning attitude. "Hey , sorry I forgot to tell you about the rain yesterday." Rainbow Dash apologized." It totally slipped my mind." " Oh don't worry about that!" Fluttershy said. " We didn't mind staying inside." "We?" Rarity asked." Did you make a new friend , darling?.. Maybe even a.. Colt friend?" "What do mea-" Fluttershy began before realizing what Rarity had said." Umm... No.. I just found him while I was in the meadow. I promised I would introduce him to us." "So you did make a colt friend!" Rarity said with a twinkle in her eye. " Yay!" Pinkie Pie cheered." Where is he? Can we meet him!? Is he nice? Did he hurt you?! Don't be afraid to tell me! I'll show him what for!" " Well he's really nice and umm." Fluttershy stuttered." Anon! You can come meet my friends now!" Anon heard Fluttershy call his name and walked over slowly. His armor fused body showed no sign of emotion and made him appear more menacing. His eyes couldn't be seen through the darkness from inside his helmet and made any eye contact really uncomfortable. His sword could be clearly seen in its sheath and his shield could be partially seen attached to his back. He just wasn't really fun to look at. He only appeared even more threatening as he walked up beside Fluttershy and eyed them carefully as if they had any thought of harming her. ELSEWHERE... "It seems like the cursed one has foolishly led us to a new realm!" Said a mysterious figure figure in the darkness. "It would seem so." Said another unidentified voice."What do you think we should do about this?" "You know good and well." Answered the first voice. "We do what we were born to do... We conquer!" "Should I begin?" Said the second voice. "Yes!" Said the first one." We must conquer this land and feed upon their flesh and bones! We must torment and torture the souls of the innocent and bathe in their blood!" "Yes , master." Said the second voice before a small green flame grew amongst them. The growing flame revealed the cursed souls of the undead around the area. Like moths to flame , they threw themselves into the flaming portal. Many more monstrosities plunged down into the portal with the only desire of causing destruction and chaos. They all cried for their nourishment , that could only come from the flesh of the innocent. They craved the hunger and would do anything to satisfy their needs. This was the beginning of dark times. Generations yet unborn will cry out in anguish. InvasionAnon had been talking with Fluttershy's friends for what seemed to be hours. It actually was just an hour and a half , but as soon as the subject of Twilight being a princess came up , Anon seemed to be interested. They would trade information about each other and they all enjoyed his company. Anon told stories of how he had saved many people , slain evil creatures , his curse , and even ongoing war between humans and the souls of the damned who are being controlled by Dark Lord. It was not known who it was but Anon and him have crossed swords many times before. All was going fine until the sound of an explosion shook the land of Equestria. Anon looked forward to where the Everfree Forest was and saw a gigantic toxic green mushroom cloud. Smoke traveled quickly across Equestria and hid the land in a thick darkness. After minutes of panic , the smoke began to vanish. Anon ran to the forest as soon as he had his vision back. The six ponies he had become friends with followed him in worry of the situation. "Anon!" Fluttershy shouted , trying to get his attention." What's happening!" "Go back to your homes immediately!" Anon shouted without daring to look back."You need to stay saf-" A gigantic worm like creature bursted from the ground under him and knocked him down in an instant. The death worm looked down upon him and opened its mouth showing tentacle like appendages. A few of the appendages grabbed his legs and dragged him closer to its mouth. Before he could be devoured , he unsheathed his claymore and cut the tentacles off of him. The creature screeched and threw its head upwards. Anon plunged his claymore into the creature and continued going forward. "What the buck was that thing?!" Rainbow Dash yelled while trying to get any sort of answer. Creatures of all sorts came forth from the trees and charged without hesitation. The ponies stopped and slowly backed up , not knowing what to do. They watched helplessly as they saw Anon throw himself into the hordes and kill as many as he could. He was stabbed , bludgeoned , brutalized , and torn asunder by the assault. He kept getting back up as his body regenerated. He would fight countless amounts of abominations. A large armored humanoid creature held him high into the air before stabbing him through the chest with a spear. "NO!" Fluttershy screamed as she tried to run forward but was blinded by an intense blind light. She found herself in the main room of Twilight's castle. Fluttershy tried desperately to calm down but couldn't. Her friends had to comfort her before she hyperventilated. She could do nothing but sob uncontrollably. "WHAT DID YOU DO!" Fluttershy screamed at Twilight. " WHY DID YOU STOP ME FROM HELPING HIM!?" "Fluttershy , you need to calm dow-" Twilight began but was Interrupted. "I COULD HAVE SAVED HIM!" Fluttershy screamed. "YOU COULD HAVE DIED!" Rainbow Dash shouted while holding Fluttershy back." Remember back when he said that he couldn't die?!" "YE-*sob*.. Yes.." Said Fluttershy while trying to calm down. "He's was protectin' us Flutters!" Applejack explained." I reckon he'll be back before you know it!" " Right now , we need to warn everypony!" Twilight explained. " We have to make sure no pony gets hurt!" IN CANTERLOT... Canterlot was the first city to be attacked by the forces of the cursed. Ponies were dying in the streets by the hundreds and guards didn't stand a chance. Bodies covered the ground and blood splattered across every surface. The undead got closer and closer by the second and could not be stopped. Princess Celestia watched as her ponies died in the streets. The large golden doors were smashed open by an unseen force. She looked back and saw a tall armored figure that was easily three times her size. "Ahh.. So you must be the ruler of this land!" Said the Giant." I love the scenery." "Are you the one doing this?!" Celestia said through her gritted teeth while charged up her magic. "How did you know?!" The giant asked sarcastically."Was it really that obvious?! Was it the armor?! No wait! It was the giant long sword in my hand covered in your sister's blood! Yeah , that must truly be it" Celestia couldn't hold in her anger anymore and fired her spell but it backfired and destroyed her horn. The Dark Lord laughed at his work. He had consumed enough souls to control other being's magic. He grabbed the helpless princess and plunged his long sword through her heart. He devoured her soul without hesitation and walked onto the balcony. His army was the only living things in the city by now and they all looked up and waited. The Dark Lord lifted up the body of Celestia as if it were his prize. After showing them her corpse , he tossed it out into the streets where it was ripped apart and devoured eagerly by undead abominations. He walked back into the throne room and sat down to contemplate his plans. First was Canterlot. The next , which is already being under siege is Manehatten. Then theres cloudsdale. And finally... Anon must die. He is the only being alive that could stop him.

CHAPTER 1: It begins The surrounding area was dark and ever so silent. Old leafless trees were at every corner of the Forbidden Forest. Fog was everywhere in sight and made it hard to see within its thick grasp upon sight. The crackling of a torch was filling in the silence along with the snapping of twigs. Our courageous knight , Anon was leading his way through the heavily wooded area. He swore he could hear faint whispers speaking in a unfamiliar and possibly inhuman dialect.

Everything that happened before was crawling back into his memory as he struggled to get up. He stumbled and used the nearest item to prop himself up. He felt dizzy and nauseous when he got up on his own two booted feet. The weight of his armor couldn't bother him since it became part of him , but something about his surroundings felt different.

Anon shouted as if the timberwolves could understand him. The timberwolves wasted no time in charging at their prey. Anon waited for them to get into perfect distance. A timber wolf attempted to pounce onto the knight but was met with a claymore going into its mouth and through it's hard wooden skull.

A third wolf tackled him to the ground with a strong force. Anon snapped its neck and threw the body at another upcoming wolf. He stood up and grabbed his sword and shield.

"Yet again , I thank you lord for giving me the strength and will to go on living. I would like to thank the for good that is in the world and for all of those who try to make the world a better place. Amen.". Anon got up from his usual prayer and went on through the forrest. He was once again interrupted by another noise. This one seemed different. After getting closer to the source. It was the sound of humming! It belonged to a beautiful feminine voice.

Hours passed by as Anon helped Fluttershy around inside after telling her that he would like to thank her for her hospitality. "It's almost time for bed , sir Anon." Fluttershy said using the knight version of his name. " I have a bed I. The guest room if you would like to sleep in there." " I don't sleep." Anon explained. " I can only sit and rest due to my curse. Would you mind if I use your fireplace?" "Not at all." Fluttershy said while smiling. " I understand if you would like a night light."

" Anon , look over there!" Fluttershy said while gently tugging on his hand." Those are my friends I was telling you about!" Anon looked ahead at the ponies , Fluttershy was pointing at. They were seated outside of a... House made of candy?... Well anyway , they appears to be having a conversation and didn't notice him nor Fluttershy. Fluttershy told him to stand still while she went over to say high and safely introduce him. Anon waited for her to wave him over. "Howdy there Flutters!" Applejack said in a good morning attitude. "Hey , sorry I forgot to tell you about the rain yesterday." Rainbow Dash apologized." It totally slipped my mind." " Oh don't worry about that!" Fluttershy said. " We didn't mind staying inside." "We?" Rarity asked." Did you make a new friend , darling?.. Maybe even a.. Colt friend?" "What do mea-" Fluttershy began before realizing what Rarity had said." Umm... No.. I just found him while I was in the meadow. I promised I would introduce him to us." "So you did make a colt friend!" Rarity said with a twinkle in her eye. " Yay!" Pinkie Pie cheered." Where is he? Can we meet him!? Is he nice? Did he hurt you?! Don't be afraid to tell me! I'll show him what for!" " Well he's really nice and umm." Fluttershy stuttered." Anon! You can come meet my friends now!" Anon heard Fluttershy call his name and walked over slowly. His armor fused body showed no sign of emotion and made him appear more menacing. His eyes couldn't be seen through the darkness from inside his helmet and made any eye contact really uncomfortable. His sword could be clearly seen in its sheath and his shield could be partially seen attached to his back. He just wasn't really fun to look at. He only appeared even more threatening as he walked up beside Fluttershy and eyed them carefully as if they had any thought of harming her. ELSEWHERE... "It seems like the cursed one has foolishly led us to a new realm!" Said a mysterious figure figure in the darkness. "It would seem so." Said another unidentified voice."What do you think we should do about this?" "You know good and well." Answered the first voice. "We do what we were born to do... We conquer!" "Should I begin?" Said the second voice. "Yes!" Said the first one." We must conquer this land and feed upon their flesh and bones! We must torment and torture the souls of the innocent and bathe in their blood!" "Yes , master." Said the second voice before a small green flame grew amongst them. The growing flame revealed the cursed souls of the undead around the area. Like moths to flame , they threw themselves into the flaming portal. Many more monstrosities plunged down into the portal with the only desire of causing destruction and chaos. They all cried for their nourishment , that could only come from the flesh of the innocent. They craved the hunger and would do anything to satisfy their needs. This was the beginning of dark times. Generations yet unborn will cry out in anguish.
InvasionAnon had been talking with Fluttershy's friends for what seemed to be hours. It actually was just an hour and a half , but as soon as the subject of Twilight being a princess came up , Anon seemed to be interested. They would trade information about each other and they all enjoyed his company. Anon told stories of how he had saved many people , slain evil creatures , his curse , and even ongoing war between humans and the souls of the damned who are being controlled by Dark Lord. It was not known who it was but Anon and him have crossed swords many times before. All was going fine until the sound of an explosion shook the land of Equestria. Anon looked forward to where the Everfree Forest was and saw a gigantic toxic green mushroom cloud. Smoke traveled quickly across Equestria and hid the land in a thick darkness. After minutes of panic , the smoke began to vanish. Anon ran to the forest as soon as he had his vision back. The six ponies he had become friends with followed him in worry of the situation. "Anon!" Fluttershy shouted , trying to get his attention." What's happening!" "Go back to your homes immediately!" Anon shouted without daring to look back."You need to stay saf-" A gigantic worm like creature bursted from the ground under him and knocked him down in an instant. The death worm looked down upon him and opened its mouth showing tentacle like appendages. A few of the appendages grabbed his legs and dragged him closer to its mouth. Before he could be devoured , he unsheathed his claymore and cut the tentacles off of him. The creature screeched and threw its head upwards. Anon plunged his claymore into the creature and continued going forward. "What the buck was that thing?!" Rainbow Dash yelled while trying to get any sort of answer. Creatures of all sorts came forth from the trees and charged without hesitation. The ponies stopped and slowly backed up , not knowing what to do. They watched helplessly as they saw Anon throw himself into the hordes and kill as many as he could. He was stabbed , bludgeoned , brutalized , and torn asunder by the assault. He kept getting back up as his body regenerated. He would fight countless amounts of abominations. A large armored humanoid creature held him high into the air before stabbing him through the chest with a spear. "NO!" Fluttershy screamed as she tried to run forward but was blinded by an intense blind light. She found herself in the main room of Twilight's castle. Fluttershy tried desperately to calm down but couldn't. Her friends had to comfort her before she hyperventilated. She could do nothing but sob uncontrollably. "WHAT DID YOU DO!" Fluttershy screamed at Twilight. " WHY DID YOU STOP ME FROM HELPING HIM!?" "Fluttershy , you need to calm dow-" Twilight began but was Interrupted. "I COULD HAVE SAVED HIM!" Fluttershy screamed. "YOU COULD HAVE DIED!" Rainbow Dash shouted while holding Fluttershy back." Remember back when he said that he couldn't die?!" "YE-*sob*.. Yes.." Said Fluttershy while trying to calm down. "He's was protectin' us Flutters!" Applejack explained." I reckon he'll be back before you know it!" " Right now , we need to warn everypony!" Twilight explained. " We have to make sure no pony gets hurt!" IN CANTERLOT... Canterlot was the first city to be attacked by the forces of the cursed. Ponies were dying in the streets by the hundreds and guards didn't stand a chance. Bodies covered the ground and blood splattered across every surface. The undead got closer and closer by the second and could not be stopped. Princess Celestia watched as her ponies died in the streets. The large golden doors were smashed open by an unseen force. She looked back and saw a tall armored figure that was easily three times her size. "Ahh.. So you must be the ruler of this land!" Said the Giant." I love the scenery." "Are you the one doing this?!" Celestia said through her gritted teeth while charged up her magic. "How did you know?!" The giant asked sarcastically."Was it really that obvious?! Was it the armor?! No wait! It was the giant long sword in my hand covered in your sister's blood! Yeah , that must truly be it" Celestia couldn't hold in her anger anymore and fired her spell but it backfired and destroyed her horn. The Dark Lord laughed at his work. He had consumed enough souls to control other being's magic. He grabbed the helpless princess and plunged his long sword through her heart. He devoured her soul without hesitation and walked onto the balcony. His army was the only living things in the city by now and they all looked up and waited. The Dark Lord lifted up the body of Celestia as if it were his prize. After showing them her corpse , he tossed it out into the streets where it was ripped apart and devoured eagerly by undead abominations. He walked back into the throne room and sat down to contemplate his plans. First was Canterlot. The next , which is already being under siege is Manehatten. Then theres cloudsdale. And finally... Anon must die. He is the only being alive that could stop him.
