Prelude

It was a normal night as any other, when I returned home from  a long and tiresome day of school, I  went directly  to my room, threw my backpack in its usual corner   as I went, took  a shower and prepared myself something to eat.

After  my shower was taken and my  belly filled with some pizza, I started my computer and since tomorrow was Saturday, it was easy to see how I would spend my night.

I laid back and made myself more comfortable as I was  greeted with the familiar icons dotting my  desktop. After a bit of pondering   about how should I start, I moved my cursor and double click on the War for the Overworld  Icon.

A small smile appeared on my lips as I leaned back  in my chair  waiting for the game to  load as I felt  a fresh wave of thoughts, questions and plans assaulted my brain ranging from how I was going to build my dungeon to boring everyday life questions .The game loaded and  I calmly entered in it.

The next couple of  hours, I spent playing  the  sandbox, a bit of the campaign and a multiplayer  match. That's the moment when my digestion finally caught up to me and for better or worse I ran to the bathroom.

When I returned I noticed something odd, on my laptop was laying a talisman or a necklace I wasn't quite sure to be honest.

I sat down as I picked the medallion up and examined it.It was  a triangle  and on one of the sides  it had  a horse..., no a unicorn's head with wings on either side.The triangle was grey with a diamond  in its center from  green stone, the unicorns head was a darker  grey with green colored eyes and the wings had some kind of feathers on the top wich  surprise, surprise, were green.

It didn't take me long to realise what it was, a copy of the Alicorn Amulet as it was called from that show, My little pony.Although I wasn't  a  brony I had a friend  with whom  I watched a couple of episodes and they were  pretty good.

Why  was is  it colored green instead of red?

I raised it to my eye level as I  examined it intensively.What I found odd about this medallion was how  realistic it looked and felt, not only did it  seem to be  made from metal but  I couldn't see any imperfections which are so often left on such objects by uncareful sculptors wich sell them for a cheap price.And the eyes, they seemed to be an actual stone.Whoever crafted this item was skilled I suppose.

My friend probably forgot it here, but then how didn't I see it until now?And did he really have money to spend on something like this?

I shook my head.I saw people  buying more useless stuff than this, it looked pretty nice and I It was close to the shows version.Nevertheless, I returned   to my game.

Unnoticed by me however  the medallion started  glowing a little.

After a couple of minutes, I noticed the strange glow,  as it started  slowly but surely to  intensify.

Something happened to me, as  guided by an  unseen  force  or an instinct  long forgotten,  I picked it up and I put it on my  neck.The moment I let go of it, the strange artifact started  glowing brighter and spreading   until it covered my entire body.

A strange  heat  started spreading  through  my body sending electric shiver and a sensation of numbness in its wake, as for what I thought,  I was  completely calm , unnaturally calm as I felt  no fear , no anger, nothing  as I calmly waited for whatever  was happening, as  somehow, I knew that whatever was  going on, I couldn't stop it and  more importantly it wasn't to kill or hurt me.Those were my final thoughts  as I finally  passed out.

In a dark  room  where only one  light pierced  through, coming from  the central table   on wich  a tridimensional  map   sat.

In the darkness something, a  tall humanoid  figure, stood overlooking it.You could see him  planning as he spoke calmly, instructing somebody or something about its task.

"He's a dim-witted sort, and he seems to like  marching his troops into an early grave..." you could feel him smile"...I'd say it's time to learn  about traps."

The deity smiled as he watched the Underlord preparing his   teleportation spell  to the Overworld.The spell was not very hard and it  came as easy as  breathing  to his servants, even in those  as weakened as this one.That would be normally, but because of the damned Imperial Inhibitors  there was the risk of  getting sent  somewhere else then intended.If that would happen he already had a plan B, wich  he hoped he wouldn't have to use.

He stood there, deep in thought, as al of the sudden jerked his head to the  left as a   look of surprise passed  his features, quickly turning into a grin.

"Well then, it seems you finally found someone didn't you?" he chuckled as he observed the strange energy signature which materialised itself in the  Aether."Hopefully, he won't   mind, the little... changes I made to you."

As fast as  it appeared so it disappeared.The deity  chuckled.A new piece has been added to the table.

The spell that  his  Underlord was casting finished as  he started  entering the Overworld.The deity smirked as he  watched the spell  teleporting   his servant exactly where  they have  planned.

He patiently waited  for the  spell to finish as he  briefed his servant about his task.

Celestia  walked down  her garden with a small  smile on her face as she enjoyed her relaxing walk.A  gust of wind  drawed her attention  to the  tree from her left.As she looked in the tree the noticed a black raven  standing.What truly  drawed  her  attention to  the bird, though, was  the  thing in his  beak.He  was  holding a rusty  Horseshoe.The raven  stared at her, before flying away and dropping his horseshoe.

She watched  him flying  away as a wave of concern  passed trough her.She shook her head to clear her worry.Bad omens were only  a  fake myth.They weren't true.

As she continued her walk she couldn't  stop a pang  of  fear from residing  in the  back of her mind.
