The Royal Secrets: History of the Changelings
The History, from start to finish
Load Full StoryHello, I am the changeling queen, here to tell you the history of my stupid disloyal… I apologize for going off topic. As I was saying, the history of changelings. There wasn't always a 'swarm' of changelings, or as I would call us a herd, seeing as we are pony's still, at one point there was only one, me. When I was born everyone thought I was a monster, mostly because my parents were and I looked like one. No one wanted to be around me because my parents would most likely kill them, real good parents, right? Anyway my only friend was my older brother, Discord, we loved each other more than anything and loved messing with our evil parents almost as much. We'd get in trouble for helping someone else, and then my big brother would take me out and we'd get chocolate ice cream, wish is loved by changelings for its tast of love.
This lasted a few years before our cosins, Celestial and Luna, found us and helped us escape but not before our father cursed Ce!estia to lose all who she holds dear, a curse that she brook days before her daughter was born, but it was to late she lost me in the ever free forest when I fell in a tree, she lost my brother when he went crazy thinking that our parents killed me, she then lost her sister to Nightmare Moon who had only good intentions at heart, and in the battle she lost her husband and her sisters husband, then to protect her she had to give up her niece, not a great year for herher.
After I fell into the tree, I found myself between a pack of timber wolfs and two manticors. I closed my eyes and awaited the pain that I thought I should feel, only it never came. When I opend my eyes there were six changelings. When I asked them where they came from one of them told me that they came from my mind in order to protect me. I remembered Celestia telling me that this sometimes happens. My next question which I was hesitant on asking because I didn't want to be rude, was answered for me when they each told me their genders and that a Changelings personal form depicted them and made seeing sertan details easier. They were the first of the changelings. All the changelings in the herd are decendent from them, and before you go on about it, you don't know your intire family history, not even I do and i a only the tenth generation. We slowly built our. Home which continuded to grow for two or three centuries.
It wasn't until a few years later when I found Celestial again, and received her permission for my subjects to use their personal forms to gather food safely and ofered to let her use my changelings as spy's in war. Everything was working out well, we were winning the war agenst the griffens, but then the griffens discovered our spy and attacked my subjects when we were unprepared, that started what lead to the invasion at Cadence and Shining Armour's wedding.
The next thing to happen was that Sombra toke over the crystal empire and hide the crystal heart, which my changelings used for food because of the energy it gave off, so we only had what was in storage and the small amount our scouts in Equestria could gather. Our food supplies kept getting lower and lower as time went on but we would make it, of course that could have been easier if all of our paths to Equestria weren't blocked by timber wolfs and manticors. At the rate things were going, there'd be nothing left of us in a few years, but things got better when the elements of harmany sent out a flare of magic, but I knew that the flare ment the elements had gone into hibernation, which ment that their host would be born within the next hundered years. The magic flare reminded me that Luna's banishment would only last a hindered more years. Eighty years after that, I gave birth to my first daughter, who I changed into her personal form and sent her to cloudsdale. Eight years after my daughters birth I had my secend daughter who I put in her personal form and went to ponyvill, then a year later a wave of color washed over the sky, saving my changelings from destruction, I was proud to learn that the wave of color was my daughter doing a sonic rainboom, something thought to be impossible. Then one day the elements flared again which ment that their host had united and that Luna was free. But not long after I became despite and invaded, I am amazed that no one but Twilight realized that I wasn't Cadence, and lost. A few months later the changelings turned on me, causing me and the six still loyal to me to have to flee until we finally reached ponyvill where the rest of the royal family eventually was reunited. I also found out that I'm going to be a grandmother. The colt that got my youngest daughter pregnet is lucky her father is missing, because if he wasn't this colt would be dead, and he is lucky that he got her pregnet, because if he didn't they'd be dead.
Discord tells me that he thinks that our parents are going to come back and that the elemental pony's will be comeing back. Discord also looked scared and when I asked him why he told me that his friend... Blazing Dusk, I think said that some thing Eviler than our parents is slowly making it's way here, he also said it's army is so massive that it may take the entire royal family, both of them, and some others to take it down. When I asked for more detail he told me that they have been around sense the begening of space, which was way before the down of time. This is bad. I told Discord to enjoy life until this thing arrives and he asked me why he would need to be told to do so. I told him that he didn't need to be told.
That is our history and if I sound rushed it's because I have to force my daughter to get a dress after she's done school.
