That was how it all started. The war. Over something that should have been as simple as rescuing my sister from a group of humans.

Now I'm here. Alone again. Except for all of you, I guess.

Silence is gone, probably died in that fight. My sister is gone, teleported someplace that I don't know. And now I'm someplace torn apart into a million pieces with every villain that Equestria ever knew fighting against everyone else, praying that some godly force brought me to where my sister was sent to.

And I don't think I came alone.

I can see a box. And I can see a statue. The portals' closed. They shouldn't be here. Luckily, they're on my side. 173 is just as confused as I am. Drago is still here. But it's us against the world. And if the ruler of the GrimDark or the Scarlet King knows I'm here...

I feel like the war will truly begin.

Author's Note

And so, here we are. You're probably wondering, why didn't we see the battle? And how did she get there? What war is there? I assure you... Both the Super Duper Life of the Party Pony and The Black Moon Howls were prequels to the next tale I plan to tell. I decided that I'd move the idea I had for my other account onto here, since this is where I'm most active.

You'll see more of Mena and friends yet.

Welcome to the Genesis.
