What is Taken

In the Age of the Ancients the world was unformed, shrouded by fog. A land of grey crags, archtrees and everlasting dragons. Then there was Fire and with Fire came Disparity. Heat and Cold, Life and Death, and of course... Light and Dark.

From the Dark they came and found the Souls of Alicorns within the flame. Luna, Princess of the Night; The Princess Twilight and her students; Celestia the Princess of Sunlight and her faithful knights; And the furtive pony, so easily forgotten.

With the Strength of Alicorns, they challenged the dragons. Celestia's mighty bolts peeled apart their stone scales. Twilight and her students weaved great firestorms. Luna unleashed a miasma of Death and Disease. Spike the Dragon betrayed his own and the dragons were no more. Thus began the age of Fire...

But soon, the flames will fade and only Dark will remain. Even now there are only embers and pony sees not light, but only endless nights. Amongst the living are seen carriers of the accursed Darksign.

Yes, indeed. The Darksign brands the Undead. And in this land, the Undead are corralled and led to the north, where they are locked away to await the end of the world.

But it is said that one day and Undead will be Chosen, to escape the asylum and travel to the land of the Alicorns, Canterlot.
