Arcane Shadow (Re-Written)

by Dragonborne Fox
Two worlds, with one barrier separating them, remained divided for an untold amount of time. When the barrier breaks, the factions express a desire to meet up. Only, a group heard of doom and gloom and wants to stop it. And the clock is ticking...

*Crossover with Epic Battle Fantasy 1-4 and bits of the upcoming 5, with bits of Bullet Heavens 1 & 2. Knowledge of the series of games is not needed to enjoy this story, since I tend to explain tidbits of crossover material at a time in my works. Also takes place late Season 3 for MLP. Thanks to Dragon Historian for an alternate cover art!*

When a barrier between two worlds breaks, it provides an ample opportunity for two separated cultures to interact for the first time in ages. However, a band of ponies and gryphons on one of these two worlds come upon a spoken legend that foretells the end times that follow the barrier's destruction—whispers of aggravatingly vague omens to come. In addition to this, said group find six mares and a small drake from the sister world, each as perplexed as ever as to why the barrier broke.

Yet none know how fast the clock ticks, nor of the forces at work in the shadows. Should they fail to stop whoever or whatever is behind the mess, a fated tragedy will strike—with all being plunged into their final, and darkest hour. But how will the differing groups stop the impending calamity, when they have but one meager piece of a proverbial puzzle, and such vast worldviews that are radical enough to spark fights between them?
