Fallout Equestria: The Forsaken ones

Prologue

   War. War never changes. The three pony races clashed over welfare and resources during the great snowstorm. The changelings preyed upon ponykind, seeking love to pacify their almost eternal hunger. In an alternate age, Sombra took control of half the land, creating an economic superpower from a battered and broken Crystal Empire. And yet, war never changes. Upon the creation of the Megaspells, all of Equestria prepared themselves for the end of the world. What they got instead was something miraculous; magic was used not as a destructive force, but a nearly unlimited source of power. From both magic and advanced technology came forth luxuries that once belonged in the realm of fantasy; domesticated robots, hoof-held terminals, even fusion-powered air craft.

   Then came disaster. An era came when a dream became a nightmare, and eons of consumption lead to vast shortages of resources. The world unraveled. Peace was now nothing more but a comforting dream. On the brink of total war, all races stood... afraid. For themselves, for their families, for their friends.

   Years later, Equestria became a decayed, almost sunless wasteland. Many had perished, but those who had survived the Megaspell bombing found ways to keep going. There were some who were fortunate enough to reach sanctuary, taking refuge in subterranean shelters known as Stables. Upon the passing of the great darkness, the doors of these stables would open and those who inhabit them would step outside to begin their lives again. One such stable dweller, a pony whom many call "the Light Bringer", was said to have saved all of Equestria from a terrifying evil. As many stories proclaimed, this evil arose from the south. Whatever it touched became corrupted, turned into something they weren't before. The evil was defeated only through the Light Bringer's courage. But was it TRULY worth it? In so doing, she had suffered great losses while also causing some. She had sacrificed much of herself for the sake of saving the world. She was forsaken by the ponies of Stable 2, but she still kept going, and many of her living friends stood by her side.

   Many years later, a gang of terrorists patrolled a section within the north. The group consisted of a griffon, a yak, a diamond dog, and leading the group; a pony. This particular pony was an alicorn, but she remained the same size as a normal pony. The Alicorn scanned the area, and looked back at her group. "Stay on your toes, men," she told them, "It won't be long before we put our plan into action. Soon, there shall be hell to pay."
