Prologue Welcome to the Dark world where just about everything is in ruin. How much ponies here wish for the opposite things to come true once more. those dreams are crushed by brutal realities. Many of these crule and grim events happened all too fast for anypony to realize what had happened to the world filled with harmony that flourished before this; however, there are few if none whom would help restore the world back to its natural peace out of fear of the ones who rule them. Nightmare moon, firstly, has broken from her millinial prison to enslave the world in an eternal night. Instead of somepony doing something to stop her one joined her becoming her right hoofed mare; this pony is Twilight Sparkle. Together she and nightmare rule together in what has become renamed as the Nightmare kingdom. Twilight, together with nightmare moon, have banished Princess Celestia to the sun for a thousand years using the elements of harmony to do so. this land ever freezes in this eternal night but ponies have made the best of preparations to accommodate the fare rulers request. Not long after Celestia's banishment did discord break free from his petrified prison in the castle gardens. He has tried dispelling his chaos magic to the Nightmare Kingdom only to be threatened with re-petrification. The only thing with his threats of entropy, is that they are just that, for Nightmare and Twilight wield his only means of discontinuing to spread chaos, the elements of harmony. with the threat of repetrification he backed off his threats and moved to do his thing down in saddle arabia. The Crystal Empire, my home, fares much worse. with recent events, Sombra has returned to enslave the crystal ponies in a fear driven empire. In his return he nearly killed Twilight Sparkle, who was tasked to reclaim this place for the Nightmare kingdom. With his return, Twilight and her royal assistant, a mare into dresses, were captured. Nightmare moon soon after came to bargain for her two loyal subjects only to receive Twilight back from Sombra. Political situations here are nearing the brink of war and now my home is ruled in constant fear either from somber himself or from the kingdom's threats at invasion. Ponyville, from what I've heard, used to be the most light hearted place in equestria. Now it is only a dark grim place where a mad mare said to roam those parts looking for her sick and twisted way of fun… Only rumors are heard about how this mad mare mutalates ponies and bakes them into cupcakes they. Some say she leaves the heart to be the last thing to be plucked from any victim's corpse making them feel every bit of pain she would cause to make her cupcakes. Only one pony I've ever come across told me her name: Pinkamania Dian Pie. Cloudsdale could be worse than Ponyville but no pony knows for sure. There have been rumors from escapees about a rainbow factory which needs a constant supply of ponies to produce spectra and rainbows. Its rumored that the pegasai wonder the globe like hawks searching for easy targets to take to that infernal factory taking earth pony and unicorn alike to fuel its ever dastardly effects. The changelings, despite their hostile name, have instead been very kind hearted. In this grim world nopony feels the love that was Equestria back in the day. Because of this, their queen imposes that her kingdom be the happiness hub of the world to feed her growing kind, being they feed off of love for one another it was essential for them. It was said that Queen Chrysalis faced a three front war from Somber Discord and Nightmare Moon. that three front war ended in Chrysalis' victory over the three other dictators; It must have been the changeling's cheery attitude that won them the war. Tierik never broke free from his hell of a prison his revival would've been the worst thing to ever come on this already war torn and ravaged planet. Had he broke free he would've torn this world into ablivion. Frankly everypony should be thankful for Tartarus' diligence. though I fear something more dreadful would come from this, I can only thank cerberus for its diligence. Despite this Cruel world I, Storm Rival am determined to find a way to make things return to harmony and peace once again. I am but a simple a filly and Colt sitter protecting the children from the grim harm that the world has to offer them. However, this journey to return peace to this land has made me leave them to fend for themselves as  I make a trek to the Crystal Empire to hopefully combat Sombra and his nefarious deeds with the other Royal mare he has in his dastardly clutches.
