Have you ever wondered how Equus came to be? How the great nation of Equestria came to be founded at last? How the other races came to exist? Sadly, most of that knowledge is lost to time and each of the ancient Alicorn race claims something different, their memories having been horribly tampered with during one of the many ages of chaos.

Indeed, there are many myths and legends about the creation of Equus. Most of them are false. Some of them are mistakes and others are outright lies. This account, however, was found by an intrepid archaeologist deep beneath the crust of the planet, in what appears to be the archive of Scolaris the Wise himself. Take it with a grain of salt, but this could be, truly, how our world came to be.

Perhaps... but we may never know for certain
