Fallout Equestria: Guardians of the Wastes

Fallout Equestria: Guardians of the Wastes Prologue

Equestria was a land known for its kindness, friendship and harmony. For thousands of years the kingdom was a shining beacon of hope for all the good in the world. Two sisters ruled over the sun and moon, both keeping the balance of the land. Though times were tough in some cases, Equestria always found a way to return to harmony and live in peace. But like all things in the world, it would have to come to an end.

During the reign of Princess Celestia, after the return of her sister Princess Luna from her long imprisonment on the moon, conflict broke out between Equestria and Zebrica. The Caesar declared war on Equestria and the zebras fought for their leader. Then came the massacre at Princess Luna’s School in Littlehorn Valley. Celestia moved for peace many times, but the Massacre of Littlehorn was the last straw. Celestia then stepped down from her throne and Luna rose to the task of defending Equestria from the zebras. The war went on for decades, both sides refusing to surrender. Luna created the Ministries and appointed the Elements of Harmony to run her government and help her win the war. Alas, the war did not end as anyone wanted.

The war tore Equestria apart, megaspells rained from the sky and devastated the land with balefire and radiation. The civilization that stood for over a thousand years. But the ponies lived on. The company Stable-Tec created underground shelters for the ponies to ride out the apocalypse and keep their species alive. The Stables, as they called them, were built all across the country and ponies from every corner of the land reserved their places to save themselves and their families. But for those who could not get in, life went on. The once beautiful land of Equestria had turned into an irradiated wasteland where radiation ruled the lands.

Our story takes us to one of these stables, and it was different from the others in many ways. This is Stable 100 and the purpose of this stable, in the eyes of the public, was to not only save ponies but also zebras. Now I know that might seem strange after all that talk about the war and all, but this stable was designed in part to help rid the hatred of zebras from the population and bring ponies and zebras together in hopes to prevent the actions of their ancestors.

Stable 100 survived the war and lived in peace for two hundred years under the leadership of its two Overmares, one pony and one zebra. But there were other features to this stable that the residents and even Stable-Tec itself were not aware of. They would soon learn that they would play a role in rebuilding Equestria and the hardships they would face would change the world. And the first step in this process came from a young stallion who was not meant to exist, yet would be their greatest hero.
