During the CMC's journeys across the wasteland, in the far east in what remains of Post-war China, there lurks a pony... who desires to take advantage of the poor and desolate.

More then just the CMC, along with Derpy's family and DJ-PON3 were taken, several others were taken as well by the Voidling. One of which, is a mare that very little could care less about. She was taken a week shortly after the CMC vanished, and thrown into the same world they landed in, except she's in the far east.

In a land, known as China, and while she's there, she'll find a nation filled with weak and desperate souls in search of someone to guide them… and she's going to take advantage of them, and get what she believes she truly deserves…

An empire, worthy of a Queen.

Un-Return I: The Imperial Wastes

She didn't know what had happened, the mare had simply been walking home from where she was working as head of the school board in Ponyville, and was about to berate her husband for once again failing to meet her needs, when all of a sudden a strange creature had attacked her. She had cried out for help from her loyal servants, her husband or perhaps a generous passerby, but no one had come to aid her in fending on the terrible beast.

The mare had no choice but to run away, but she was quickly engulfed by the darkness that was the Voidling. Her entire world had become nothing but a chilling darkness that covered her whole body, straight down to the bone, she tried to cry out but nothing would come forth from her throat. Everything grew colder and colder, before she was violently thrown forth, flying through the air with a terrified scream before she slid down a small hill, rolling and roll as what small amount of clothing she was wearing was ripped away. A pained yelp and grunt escaped her with each rock she rolled over, until coming to a stop on flat ground, landing on graval.

She laid there for some time, shaking in pain from the treatment she was forced through. She felt violated, disgusted with what had just happened to her. She felt wronged, her entire body shivering from the feeling of the monster's tendrils touching her, holding her body, possibly doing more then just that. The mare tried not to think about it, while she managed to get her head up, and looking around her new location.

Mountains.

She stomped her hoof onto the ground, cursing the voidling creature for doing this to her, a mare of her perfect and immaculate stature. "Damnedable creature!" huffing through her nose, she looked around the place. She was indeed, in the mountains somewhere, Ponyville had no such mountains. Equestria had them but they were nowhere near Ponyville, none as beautiful and lush as these.

With narrowed eyes, she scanned for a path down this lush and pretty looking place, and eventually found one, but, it went further up as opposed to down. Going opposite of the path, it seemed to connect to what looked like a very large bridge, the path across was dangerous however, looking like it was destroyed by something. The wooden bridge was desolate looking, and creaked from the winds cascading through the mountains around her. Grumbling to herself she looked at the path leading up, it was a short path that led to what looked like a massive temple of sorts, with steep steps leading up to it from the mountain path. Another huff escaped her, as she headed for the temple, perhaps she could find whoever ruled this particular patch of land and gain favor with them for a ride home.

This place is actually
