Diplomats of the Damned
Twenty seven years in the future, Equestria is a desolate and hollow shell of its former self thanks to the emergence of a swarm of demonic creatures. These beasts overwhelmed, overpowered, and “converted” the nation’s citizens before any plan could be put into action to repel them. Those who were more prepared met even more grisly fates after witnessing the creature’s most terrifying ability - evolution. Each and every single one was able to biologically alter themselves seemingly on the spot to combat all of the Royal Guard’s efforts. The creatures sprouted wings to hunt down the pegasi and griffons. They fused together to make stronger variants to overpower the Earth ponies and buffalo. They used unicorn hosts to absorb prior-learned magic to slaughter the guard’s most elite. The world was damned and everycreature knew it. As the years turned into decades, the beasts spread into neighboring nations and did the same. Nothing was a match for them when they could adapt and counter everything, leading the world into an apocalypse of slowly struggling to survive.
This is the story of two ponies from different time periods that are forced to form an unlikely bond when fate dumps one of them at the hooves of the other 27 years after the start of the apocalypse. What neither one knows is that something far more sinister than fate has been lurking behind the curtain. Will they be able to uncover the truth behind the displaced timelines? Will they be able to survive and overcome the beasts which have already conquered all? But most of all, will they be able to avoid becoming monsters themselves in this horrific Equestria?
