Meanwhile in space...
Prologue & Epilogue
Previous ChapterPrologue
Hello, I am the ruler of the planet Terratria home of the Rockanites. We are a proud race of beings, able to move around using our natural levitation abilities. We also have the highest intelligence of any known creature. We have constructed Spacecrafts beyond the limits of any other spacefaring species and well beyond that of species that have not gone passed their own planet. Now since we are an obviously superior race it is only fitting that we conquer worlds with lesser beings. We, the Rockanites, have conquered hundreds of planets in the name of The Great Stone Empire. Then one day one of our scout ships came back to us. I looked at the serial number on the craft. It read '1006-1337-4242-9669'. I had seen this number somewhere before and I thought I knew where but I needed to know for sure. I checked our record and it was confirmed. This was indeed the fabled lost explorer that was sent out into deep space over a thousand years ago. Luckily this craft was designed to be unpiloted because if there were somerocky it there they surely would have died by now. I soon discovered that the recording of the craft's findings were still intact. Curious I decided to want the tapes.
What I saw was a blue and green, the blue was probably water and the green vegetation. However what interested me the most was a race of beings that call themselves 'Ponies'. These ponies were divided three sub-species: Earth Ponies, Unicorns, and Pegasi. Earth Ponies were the physically strongest, Pegasi were capable of flight and weather manipulation, and the Unicorns had arcane abilities. However, further research found that there was two members of a fourth sub-species who seem be the rulers of this world. One closer inspection it was found that one of the two fourth sub-species, now classified as 'Alicorns', were exiled to this planet possibly due some crime it had committed. This still doesn't answer why the ship had't come for a thousand years. I fast-forward the video to end and found something interesting. I appear that the Alicorn that had been exiled, and the one left to rule in its absence, are still. This amount of longevity hints towards immortality something we need to look into. Now by the look of things it appear that the exiled Alicorn had returned and is probably wants revenge. Revenge... what a silly notion. However the exiled Alicorn was defeated by a group of six ponies and then nothing. The rest of the tape of nothing but static probably some external force caused this.
Not satisfied with these results, I decided to go the planet, which I now know is called 'Equestria'. It took about a year and when I got there thing were very different. The land was covered with the oddest things imaginable least of which was that the clouds were pink and instead of raining water it was raining some brown liquid. I decided to hide in a maze made out of vegetation and lie still. This was genius because rockanites are naturally designed to look like ordinary rocks. However it was also genius because I got to met her. An female unicorn with white fur with markings on its rear (I still have failed to identify what they are) much like most of the other ponies. I had seen that some of these ponies did have this strange marking usually the younger one which suggests that maturity is a factor. Oh sorry I'm going off topic where was I oh yes the white unicorn, It also had a 'mane' and 'tail' that were violet and had the most beautiful blue eyes.
I looked at her and she looked at me and it was love at first sight. Her name was Rarity and she cared for me more than anyrocky had done before. At one point her color turned to grey put I didn't care because I was in love. She loved me too she even fought some other ponies when they were trying to steal me away from her calling me 'Tom'. Still use that name even today. Yes I loved her and she loved me. At least I thought she loved me. After all we been through she abandoned me, left me like I was useless tool to be used and then thrown away. Soon after I went back to my ship and headed home with a broken heart.
Revenge is a notion thought silly by us rockanites. We go after most greater things in this universe. However after what happened, Rarity and the world you hold have no hope left. I Tom, ruler of the rockanites, will have my revenge
