Fallout Equestria: Tales of Steel

     Once upon a time there were two regal sisters who ruled their kingdom side by side. During the day, the elder sister rose the sun high into the vast sky to give light and warmth to her subjects. During the night, her younger sister would raise the moon and night stars so that their subjects could sleep in the peace of her soft moonlight. These two sisters were known to their subjects as Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, princess of the sun and princess of the night. Over time, Princess Luna started to envy all the attention and recognition that her sister Celestia received for her beautiful days. As time went on, her jealousy grew and grew till one fateful day, the day of the summer sun solstice,  her jealousy and anger took control of her and manifested itself and transformed Luna into Nightmare Moon. Celestia begged her sister to lower the moon and to calm down, but her younger sister refused and casted the land into eternal night. With a heavy heart, Celestia banished Luna to the moon for a thousand years in hopes her sister could calm down. A thousand years, Luna spent in solitude with her anger and jealousy, tormented by the attention her sister received, but also heart broken that her sister "betrayed"her. Centuries past, and every year during the summer sun festival was a constant reminder to Celestia about that fateful day when she lost her sister, but upon the thousandth day of the thousandth year, Luna was set free with the aid of the stars, and Nightmare Moon returned to cast the land into eternal night as she did before a thousand years ago. But, upon this night, there was hope, there was willpower, there was friendship.

   "On the thousandth day of the thousandth year, the mare in the moon will escape her prison with the aid of the stars. Spike! Today is that day! Today is the thousandth celebration of the summer sun festival!" It was thanks to this unicorn named Twilight Sparkle and her five friends, that the two sisters were reunited on this day that a thousand years ago, the two sisters were separated. Since this day, the equestrian nations flourished. For years there were leaps in equestrian technology, and with these advances came a price, a hunger if you will. In order to power the many equine factories, coal must be discovered, extracted, and then shipped to the hordes of power plants. The equestrians sat on vast amounts of gems and other precious metals, but they did not however have any coal deposits, but, across the sea laid another land full of coal, only, these vast deposits of coal were controlled by the many zebra kingdoms. For decades, there was peace between the equestrians and the zebras, but peace only lasted when each side kept their greed in check. Soon peace led to threats, then the threats led to trade embargoes, then the trade embargoes led to the massacre of innocent children at Celestia's school for gifted unicorns. Torn by the loss of so many young innocent lives, Princess Celestia stepped down from the throne and gave full rein to her younger sister Luna. Finally in power, Luna could reign as she always wanted to, which she did, then war broke out. Each side fought to make the other cave into their demands, but no side budged. As greed lead to hate, so did it lead to new weapons of war, from armored soldiers, to machines of destruction, to the ultimate weapons, megaspell and balefire bombs. Shortly after these weapons of mass destruction were developed,  the world ended. Cloudsdale was the first to get wiped of the map, then roam, soon many major equestrian cities fell to the same fate, as well as a few zebrican cites. Many retreated to underground vaults called "stables", others to secret bunkers unknown to anyone accept to those who knew. The pegasi retreated to above the clouds and covered the land in darkness as they closed the skies to prevent further destruction, those who didn't make it to shelter were left at the mercy of who ever they held as deity. Then, all was silent for 200 years as the world mourned the millions of lives lost on that fateful day the bombs fell.

     Ok enough of the history lesson. We all know what happened 200 years ago, greedy ponies and zebras couldn't share each others cookies so they threw the deadliest hissy fit that killed the world as we knew it. But what's going on NOW? So, here's a tale about some ponies, possibly zebras, who live in this harsh world known us as FALLOUT EQUESTRIA.
