Twilight Souls

Long ago, the Sun faltered. And ponykind learned a horrifying lesson.

Theirs was a world of impermanence. All things would fade, come time. All things would make their way to The End.

Some could not accept this. The remaining great Alicorns, leaders of ponies and bearers of the most powerful Souls, sacrificed everything to save their people from oblivion. Princess Luna granted them the gift of her fallen sister's flame, to reinforce their fragile bodies, as she mourned, sleepless. Princess Twilight, so wise, so clever, bound ponies to her own light, and so locked the entrance to the The End, halting the decay of her world.

It was a dire mistake.

The light of day and dark of night faded, only Twilight remained. Souls beget strength and thought, unable to leave this world, forever cursed to change hooves, to reincarnate at the flames of their forgotten bones. The Undead blight has held sway over ponies, and horrors of dragons and demons held sway over the land once known as Equestria.

Ponies... Know This...

Seek misery, for in misery reside great souls.

And in souls reside the truth.
