The beginning of time

As Oblivion walked endlessly to the eastern mountains he became board. he had already walked about 30 miles yesterday and about 15 today. The mountain were still about 70 miles away.  Oblivion grumbled to himself about how his feet were sore how tiring this trip was and how he is going to have to search for the remnants of the four lords of devastation in the eastern mountains. Then continued saying how it would be like searching for a needle in a haystack. Oblivion eventually came across the town of Lenicard. Lenicard was a medium sized town that had farmers, merchants, and other things.

As Oblivion walked into the town ponies immediately started bowing as he passed by paying no attention to them. Oblivion walked slowly through the marketplace and observed if any of the ponies sold anything that would prove useful to him. Oblivion eventually found a blacksmith shop, he then entered it and walked up to the blacksmith. The blacksmith was a bulky and, strong looking gray earth pony with a smokey black mane. He also had a cutie mark with a hammer hitting a sword on a anvil.

The blacksmith looked up at Oblivion as his eyes widened, "Y-your majesty what are you doing in a place like this? Oh dear lord where are my manners? My name is Iron great hammer." The earth pony said then bowed as Oblivion looked at him, "Is there anything I can do for you your majesty?" The gray earth pony asked.

"Well I need you to craft me a great bow Iron great hammer." Oblivion said as he placed a bag of golden coins on the counter in front of Iron great hammer.

"Um very well your majesty I shall do my best be back here in about 2 to 3 hours and I shall have your bow finished along with 50 steel great arrows." Iron great hammer said as he took the bag of golden coins and, walked into the other room. Oblivion turned around and walked out of the shop.

Oblivion looked around at the other shops, nothing really caught his eye for a while until he saw a shop with magical casting items. Oblivion walked into the shop and started to look around. He examined staffs, wands, chimes, amulets and other stuff. Oblivion found nothing to his interests until he looked at the main display case. Oblivion stared at the amulet inside the case. The amulet's chain was made of Obsidian and its center piece was a fiery dragon eye. Oblivion wanted this it looked so possessive and demented. It was perfect for his dark personality and, quite personally he thought it would make him pretty damn sexy.

Oblivion rung the bell at the counter and waited for the pony who runned the place to show up. A mare then came out from behind a curtain. She had crimson red eyes, her coat was a dark purple and she was a unicorn. Her cloak covered her cutie mark but Oblivion cared not. As she came out she almost fell straight onto her ass when she saw him.

"Oh my! Your majesty! My name is Madam Zelrien What do you request my lord?" The mare said as she regained her composure.

"It seems that a certain amulet of yours has caught my eye." Oblivion said as he pointed at the amulet in the main display case.

"Ah yes that is a very powerful magic tool. It is meant to seal exactly 21 godly beings in it. This amulet was crafted a few years back in the capital city of Elysium." Madam Zelrien said as she looked at the amulet.

"So Madam Zelrien how much will that amulet cost?" Oblivion asked with his eyebrow raised.

"Hmmm... A powerful magic tool like this would cost a fortune so I would say about ten thousand golden coins." Madam Zelrien said as she looked back at Oblivion. Oblivion had 5000 golden coins on him it was half of what he needed to buy the amulet. Oblivion thought on what he could exchange in return for the amulet. Then he remembered he had something of equal value.

"Well Madam Zelrein I don't have that much money but I do have something of equal value." Oblivion said as he snapped his fingers and a magic tome fell into his hands, "This Madam Zelrein is my own tome of spells created by myself. It holds magic that only a very powerful magic user could cast and I think this would be an equal trade for the amulet." Oblivion said as Madam Zelrein's eyes lit up with excitement.

"Yes I believe that is a fair trade your majesty." Madam Zelrein said as she unlocked the display case and took the amulet out. She then handed or should I say hoofed over it to Oblivion. Oblivion took the amulet and, put it around his neck.

"Madam Zelrein I bid you farewell may we meet again soon." Oblivion said as he exited the shop then looked at the sun. He still had 1 hour to burn until he could go retrieve his new bow. Oblivion sighed as his stomach rumbled. Oblivion chuckled as he set out to find a restaurant. Oblivion walked down the streets as he heard a feminine voice scream for help. Oblivion quickly bolted in the direction of the scream unsheathing his katana. He took a few sharp turns then came to an ally way where 3 stallions were closing in on a middle aged mare.

"Hey you the dick munches over here!" Oblivion shouted as he put both hands on the handle of the katana. The stallions turned around and scoffed.

"Oh look what we have here! His majesty has come to save his waifu!" The stallion to the left of the leader taunted as he laughed.

"What are you gonna do without your guards lecture us? Or god forbid you hit us you would hit like a mare!" The leader said snickering.

"Oh man he is gonna hit us with a sword that he can't even use correctly!" The last one said as they all bursted out into laughter.

"Yeah you laugh it up dick wads I think you want daddy's belt!" Oblivion said with a dark tone with malice and, venom practically dripping from his voice. The three stallions approached Oblivion drawing their swords. The one on the left rushed first, Oblivion side stepped and, kicked him in the balls. After that the stallion fell and Oblivion hit his head with the butt of his katana and knocked him out cold. The second one tried to sneak up on Oblivion it worked but as soon as he was a few feet away his hoof snapped a twig on the ground. Before he could blink Oblivion whipped around and roundhouse kicked him in the side of the face sending his head through a brick wall. The leader was left standing and had practically pissed himself.

"So what did you say about me not being able to fight, or having no skill with a sword and, more importantly said I hit like a mare?" Oblivion asked as he towered above the gang leader.

"Y-y-your majesty this was all just a prank. There is no need to be violent Hahaha..." The gang leader said as he was trembling in fear.

"You know what would make you feel better you schmuck?" Oblivion asked as the gang leader looked up at him.

"W-what?" The stallion asked fearfully.

"Checking yo privilege!" Oblivion said as he drew back his fist and punched the stallion in the face. Oblivion hit the stallion so hard that he flew through the wall at the dead end of the alleyway. Oblivion then calmed down and walked over to the mare who was covering her eyes and shivering.

"Miss you are safe now" Oblivion ssaid as he put his hand on her shoulder gently. The mare looked up her eyes red and puffy from crying and saw Oblivion. She gasped then immediately tried to bow but Oblivion stopped her.

"Please no formalities madam. What is your name?" Oblivion asked as he looked her in the eyes.

"M-my name is Sunlight crystal..." Sunlight crystal said as Oblivion offered her his hand to help her up. Sunlight crystal took his hand and was lifted up and put on her feet again by Oblivion.

"Well miss Sunlight crystal I think I will take you to lunch." Oblivion said as Sunlight's eyes widened and nodded. Oblivion and, Sunlight crystal walked out of the alleyway and into the town...
