Imagine, if you will, a world without anything in the way of conflict, a place to go where you could just let the problems of life slide off for a while; something to take the edge off of it all.

I wrote this more or less due to what feels like an ever-increasing amount of stress that has been building up over a long time, some of it regarding FiM as anymore I dread what will happen in the next season/episode rather than looking forward to it, and also for other reasons too.

I felt like I needed an escape from it all, a comforting, calming, almost therapeutic place. I also wondered if it could be helpful to others too.

Enter Alpha Elysium, a worry-free environment that I plan on fleshing out as I go along.

Your point of view is that of someone from Equestria who happened upon a rather strange shop with an equally strange mage inside of it. They offer to take you on a journey to ease your stress for a while. What you do from there is up to you.
