A great war has ravaged the lands of Equis for years, a war that will decide the fate of the entire world. The three pony tribes have been brought together by the epiphany of their alliance, two alicorns seeking to keep the world from becoming ashen and barren. Though they stand united with aid from the other ancient races and kingdoms of Equis, the endless tide of the hordes of Tatarus are slowly gaining a foothold from the gates to the south.

The once lush lands, left unexplored, are turning into a wasteland that steadily expands like a wave over a beach. As all of Equis fights this threat, how will they be able to respond to another and possibly more dangerous creature. How will the arrival of an alien and almost demon-like being effect the world from its sudden appearance deep within pony lands. Will this hasten the destruction of the world, or will it bring salvation?

Only time will tell if this new creature will go down as a monster or great ally. Though it will be a constant struggle as the creature fights internally against what feels almost like a second mind within it. Will its fractured mind and memories be able to restore themselves for the greater good, or will it find itself broken for good and turned into a mindless monster determined to destroy the world?

A displaced story for a genre I recently encountered and a good way for me to get back into the swing of things from my lapse of writing/editing.
