"Let me go!" I yell.

"Be quiet! The Royal Guards will hear you. Don't worry, no harm will come to you." I hear a female voice say.

Another female voice says "Your magic is out of control, you need to learn how to use it."

They walk for a while.

Then they uncover me.

I get blinded by the sun.

The three ponies uncover themselves.

Two female unicorns, and one male unicorn.

"My name is Scarlet Rose, this is Abdulia, and this is Dreamcatcher, he doesn't talk much. We are the Descendants of Maximus. Follow us, we are going to teach you." Scarlet says.

"How did you find me? And why are you helping me?" I ask.

"We put a tracking spell on the journal you stole, also Dreamcatcher had a vision, we thought that the human in Maximus' vision was the Evil One. But in Dreamcatcher's vision the unicorn is pure evil, but was defeated by the human. That human is you." Abdulia says.

"First of all, the journal was inside a cave, a cave that wasn't touched in years. Second, I'm not capable of fighting, let alone defeating anypony." I say.

"Walk with us, unless you want to be captured by the Princess' guards." Scarlet says

The three walk towards a treeline, then they disappear.

“Whoa! Just like in The Smurfs!” I say.

I follow them inside, I see a huge forest village, filled with ponies.

"Welcome to the Village of Harmony." Scarlet says.

I am speechless. It looks so beautiful.

The leaves of trees block the sky, but there is enough sunlight to see.

Homes of ponies are inside thick trees.

"Beautiful, isn't it? Maximus created the protective dome that surrounds the village. It is said it can keep out any evil." Abdulia says.

“Can you fill us in on any information, that can help us?” Scarlet asks.

“Yeah, I can. Nexus, or The Evil One, is not from this universe. He is looking for Elements.” I say.

“Elements? What kind?” Scarlet asks.

“He didn’t exactly specify which Elements he’s looking for.” I say.

We walk for a while.

We stop at a huge wooden structure, with a statue in front of it.

"This was Maximus' home, but it’s now a meeting place for us. It holds the ancient history of Equestria." Scarlet says.

"Do you know of the Elements of Harmony? Well there are more Elements that represent almost anything, good and evil. This village represents Harmony, in case you didn't know. There are also other villages that represent other Elements." Abdulia says.
An earth pony runs out of the house and says "Scarlet, you're back! You have to see this!"

We walk into the House of Maximus.

"What is it Ruby?" Scarlet asks.

"The Scroll of Prophecies is active. It is telling us something, but we don't understand it." Ruby says.

“Scroll of Prophecies? What’s that?” I ask.

“It’s pretty much self-explanatory. We’ve had it for tons of generations. Our ancestors give us information. It’s very rare, that it activates.” Abdulia says.

We walk into a room with an unraveled scroll in the middle of it.

We walk up to the scroll.

The four of us read it.

“Hmm. I don’t recognize this.” Scarlet says.

“What kind of language is this?” Abdulia asks.

"It's English. English is the language that most humans know." I say.

I read it.

"There will be new Spirits of Harmony. Sacrifice will stop the evil that takes the lives of others. Evil will present itself, but good will be there to stop it." I read.
