They arrived from the stars!

Equestria Side

The planet Avalon.

Over the centuries many nations rose and fell across the world but only one has remained the same

Equestria

It is considered to be The Holy Land since the avatar's of the sun and moon govern it and they have also been the voices of reason when war between neighboring countries was inevitable, thus gaining respect from all the other leaders.

But the most interesting thing about this country is that it has the longest standing history archive, where more than 80 % of the world's document's and events are recorded. However the information only goes back till 25 years after Discord was defeated, before that, nopony or any other creature (Discord included) knows.

The familiar sound of an alarm clock filled the library and awakening its resident alicorn. Groaning she reached over to the nightstand beside her table before slamming the snooze button. Twilight laid there for a bit before slowly climbing out of bed while stretching her wings. Although it has been six months since she became a princess, waking up to a pair of wings was steel weird, but sleeping on a mattress made of clouds was worth it!

Dear Princess Twilight Sparkle,

It has come to our attention that something has occurred in the last few days. On the night of the autumn equinox, a tremendous flux in the lye lines was reported across Equestria and it appears that the epicenter of it is 48 Hm north of Granite City. I’m sure you remember that only an artifact from the OLD ERA is able to achieve this. As such myself, Princess Luna, Professor Yearling (I think you know here better as Daring Doo) along whit a detachment of Wonderbolts we'll be heading there immediately to secure the site.

Since you spent the last 4 months studying the Dialect of OLD, I have included 6 train tickets for you and your friends in this letter. Since we are going to a remote location near the Arctic tundra please come prepared and do not tell Rainbow Dash about how will be present. (I want to surprise here a bit)

Oh, and Luna sends her regards. (She is behind me right now)

Your loving mentor, Princess Celestia

Silence fell apone the library while the letter fell to the ground.

There is nothing like a lazy Sunday where one can just rest and enjoy

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

A loud shriek that could wake the dead was heard all across Ponyville. And that can mean only two things: 1) Rarity just broke a nail (To early for that) or 2) Twilight Sparkle (Now the Princess of Friendship) has found another cataclysmic event. And judging by how Golden Oak Library is flying in the sky, it's Twilight Sparkle.

"Uhhh ... It just had to be one of those Sundays, whelp let's put on the old hardhat and hope the sky doesn't come falling down" Grunting Cloudkicker walks out of the kitchen, opens the door to the basement and enters in the underground bunker. (Since the Elements of Harmony were brought to Ponyville, every single week something happened, from Parasprites to Evil Lord's, so a law was made in which all residents of Ponyville were requested to have an emergency bunker where to hide when Twilight gives the alarm)

Perspective change: Rainbow Dash

After being on wheatear patrol all night long Rainbow was to exosted to go back home, so she spent the night on a cloud near the town center. It was the perfect Sunday for here. ‘No work, all the chores home were done, the new Daring Doo book wooed be out in 2 week's, ... the perfect day, nothing can ruin such a beut…’ Rainbow’s thoughts were disturbed be a laud shriek.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

"WHO, WHAT, WHERE'S THE PARASPRITE? ... Oh, it just the Egghead again" Rainbow grunted while opening here eyes, only for her pupils to shrink to the size of pinpricks. "Wow, if the Library is flying at that altitude that means that something is going on. Uh better check on her, hmmm ... come to think it she has been acting funny for the last few weeks ... wonder what's going on."

Dear Princess Celestia,

This is incredible news, to think that artifacts' from the OLD ERA are steel being found and that they are steel active after all this time. Perhaps whit this discovery we will be able to locate the lost Library of Nurjund (I am still unable to decipher this dialect). We will be on the next train to Granite City within the hour. I cannot wait to meet Professor Yearling again and I will keep my muzzle shut!

Princess (and steel your faithful student) Twilight Sparkle.

Perspective change: Rarity

“Now darling, I understand that you who’d be simple ecstatic to learn something from our one past, but what has that to do whit the rest of us? “ Rarity said with a toss of her hair. “Now don’t get me wrong, I like to help out eneypony especially you girls, but we are going to the arctic tundra for Celestia’s sake.”

“She does have a point there sugar cube. And how in tarnation did that whatchamacallit get there anyway?” The apple farmer asked.

“Well AppleJack, were little is known about the OLD ERA outside of a few song’s and myth’s that were transmitted orally from one generation to the next, which also resulted in different versions of them. And that whatchamacallit is known as a Artifact of OLD and why it is in such a remote location is eneypony’s ghese. And to answer your question Rarity we are going there because we have in our position such artifacts: The Element’s of Harmony” Twilight explained, giving a textbook answer to the Apple farmer and her friends.

“Wait a second, are you telling us that there are more thing’s out there that are as powerful as our element’s?” Rainbow Dash asked as she immediately flew up to her face “That is so not cool!”

‘Oh my … I hope that this time around we don’t have to cut our mains or tails like on our first endeavor. I mean it that’d be just dreadful to be in the arctic whiteout them’. The fashionista thought.

Pushing her friend away slightly, Twilight responded “Actually Equestria has several such artifacts’ other then the elements. We have in total of 5: The Element’s of Harmony, The Tree of Harmony, The Arqmters (a small green metallic orb the size of an apple that is stored in the Canterlot Volt) and the two crown’s that Princess Celestia and Princess Luna where. ” This information rendered the group silent for a few moments until Rainbow broke the silence again.

“Oh, Ok. But what thus this Arqeemnts~ mean anyhow? ” Everypony was interested in this information and lied closer to their friend to get more information.

“Uhm … It is pronounced The Arqmters and the name was recorded in a scroll of Star Swirl the Bearded, but what it really means and what it does, well, it was never discovered. I mean it’s a dead language that hasn’t been spoken in centuries and the only other pony that can pronounce it now is Nnamdi Taonga The Great Shaman from Zebrafrica. As for the artifact, not even whit our most advanced research equipment or the most powerful unicorn wizard can determine its function’s” Twilight answered whit a guilt in her voice. “I have been studing every sorce of information, every book, scroll for moths and I ”

Fluttershy then spoke, quietly “Uh, H-How does he k-know how to speak the name properly? … If you don't mind me asking that is” She asked, with a tinge of curiosity in her voice.

Twilight was hesitant for a moment, but decided that her friend’s needed to know. “ Ok girls, what I am about to say is to remain between us  ”

“Oh think nothing of it darling.” She said with a smile before she continued.

Incoming !

BOOM!

An explosive force tears the frozen earth asunder as dozens of Gremlins and Wraiths are launched from the massive shockwave generated by the meteorites impact! As the steam was dying down a very faint grunting was heard over the vind. But this sound, although faint it made everyone take a small step back, even Sombra (to his displeasure ) was forced to take a nerves gulp.

Out of the steaming crater a massive hand shot out and to the horror of all, a seven foot tall bipedal Goliath began lifting itself. It was clad in grey and white armor making the most heavily armored gremlin look like he was wearing toilet paper.

Once it was out of the crater, it began shaking its head and with a low voice that denoted power, spoke in a very bizarre and metalic language.

"Gy vorft bre shurt noert hertrow het niv-rov ?"

Translation: Did anyone catch the number of the Sun that hit me?
