Beliar hated light, so he destroyed everything that Innos created.
Then Adanos saw that in this way nothing could exist in the world
neither light nor darkness.
So he stood among his brothers and tried to reconcile them among themselves... but to no avail.
But where Adanos stood, neither Innos nor Beliar had any power.
In this place, order and chaos coexisted in harmony.
This is how the sea was created.
Land has risen from the sea, and all living things have been created on land...
Plants and animals, wolves and sheep, and at the very end ponies arose.
Adanos was happy with everything that was created then,
and he loved all things equally.
But Beliar’s anger was so great that he traveled the whole Earth
to find the beast.
And when he spoke to her, she became his servant.
Beliar breathed a part of his divine power into her
so that she could destroy all of Earth.
But Innos watched Beliar’s deed and crossed the earth to find a Pony.
And when he spoke to him, he became his servant.
Innos breathed some of his divine power into him
so that he could repair Beliar’s damage.
Then Beliar turned to another being, but Adanos sent a powerful wave that washed it off the face of the Earth.
But along with her also trees and animals went away,
so Adanos was greatly saddened.
And he said finally to his brothers:
”You will never stand on my land again
because it is sacred and will remain so forever.”
But pony and the beast didn’t stoped war on the land of Adanos,
and the anger of their gods burned in them.
And a Pony defeated the beast that returned to the kingdom of Beliar.
And Adanos saw that the balance between order and chaos was broken,
and he cursed Innos to take his divine power from pony.
And Innos did in his wisdom.
But Adanos was afraid that one day the beast would return to Earth.
That is why he asked Innos to leave some of his power on Earth and to give it back to pony one day.
And Innos did in his wisdom.
Chapter 1 - And the Story Has Begun
Canterlot
Former rulers of Equestria are getting ready to move out to the Silver Shoals. Celestia couldn’t help but notice that something is wrong, Luna is acting weird like she wasn't herself.
“Luna. What’s wrong? You behave unconsciously, even for yourself.” - Celestia asked worried about her younger sister.
“I’m sorry, it’s just... You know... Today is that day.” - Luna had a small stream of tears comming from her left eye.
“Oh... I forgot, but I thought you’ve already are ok with this?” - Celestia asked.
“I am! But it’s so hard... Since we’re moving out and all. I won’t be able to see his grave as much as I did.” - Luna said trying to calm herself down, but it only made it worse.
“Yes you will sister.” - Celestia said it with little smile.
“What do you mean? Did you’ve forgotten how far away is Silver Shoals?” - Luna couldn’t understand why her sister was smiling, did she knew something more about that place or... Her thoughts were quickly interrupted by her sister.
“We’re not moving to Silver Shoals. We’re going back to our old castle!” - Celestia huged her sister.
“Wait, what?!” - Luna asked suprised.
“I wanted make you a suprise. I love you sister, and I wouldn’t just seperate you from pony that you love so much.”- Celestia was still hugging Luna.
“That’s... Thanks Tia but for now... Why in the name of our mother didn’t you told me that before we’ve packed up for a practically vacation?” - Luna looked at her sister in annoyance.
“Well... That’s why we still have Royal Guard, that’s royal to us.” - Celestia giggled.
“And you will take care of that, I’m going to his grave. Seriously now, thank you Celestia.” - When Luna released herself from embrace of her sister, she didn’t even waited, she flew away straight to her room, to grab some flowers and then go to grave of her love.
Ponyville
Mane six, gathered in town, where they’ve first meet. It was supossed to be a friendly meeting but...
“Guys! I just saw Luna speeding like never before! She went to a graveyard!” - Rainbow Dash said while breathing hard.
“Rainbow, you were supossed to get a bread, not spy on random ponies!” - Twilight said as she stood up after being knocked out by a shockwave.
“First of all she’s not some random pony! And second, what is she doing on a graveyard in Ponyville?” - Rainbow dash asked.
“Well, Rainbow made kinda’ of point. Weren’t she supossed to be going to the Silver Shoals with her sister?” - Applejack asked as she looked at Twilight.
“There’ve been change of plans? You’ve heard about that assassination attempt on Luna? That’s why they’re staying at Old Sisters Castle, so Luna could go to her savior grave every time she wanted.” - Twilight said, everypony looked at themselfs.
“Oh... Wait he was from Ponyville?” - Rainbow asked.
“Yes, but he wasn’t type of friend maker around here, so he’ve stayed at his workshop until he became Royal Guard.” - Pinkie told ther friends.
“And how do you know about that?” - Twilight asked.
“I guessed!” - Pinkie said with smile.
“Ok, anyway I think we should just let her be. Luna find out that he was in Love in her, thanks to his journal.” - Twilight said.
“That’s romantic! And sad... That doesn’t mean we should leave Luna alone! We’re her friends! We should support her.” - Rarity said.
“I don’t think...” - Twilight tried to said something but was interupted by Rainbow Dash.
“Twilight, every shop is closed either way. And you’ve could use a little move.” - Rainbow Dash said with a giggle.
“Oh, ha ha...” - Twilight rolled her eyes as rest of her friends stood up.
“Ok, let’s go but try no to say anything stupid.” - Twilight said.
“Why are you looking at me?” - Rainbow Dash snorted.
Graveyard
“I still feel weird talking to somepony well... dead. Anyway, I’ve got good news, I’m going to live in Ponyville. I know you probably wanted me to move on but, I want to be as close as possible until we meet up there, in the stars...
“And you will Luna, you deserve happines.” - Twilight said as she and her friend approached.
“Twilight? Well, thanks! What are you doing here? Oh, right nevermind, most of you live here. Sorry I’m just a little bit distracted.” - Luna said stuttering.
“Yeah, kinda...” - Applejack tried to hide her blush.
“Sorry... It’s just... He had been dead for to me like, for ages...” - Luna turned towards his grave.
“...Luna if there’s anything we canWATCH OUT!” - Twilight screamed as she saw some lightning ball that was comming in their way. She pushed Luna away with her magic and that ball hitted... “his” grave...
“Holy shit! What was that?” - Rainbow Dash yelled.
“I don’t know but... Wait, is that a Pony?” - Twilight said as she saw the forming figure.
“Is he or she alive?” - Fluttershy asked quietly.
“...” - Luna looked at that Pony with silence.
“Luna are you ok?” - Twilight asked.
“That’s... That’s him...” - Luna said with tears in her eyes. It truly was him. A blue skinned pony, with dark-blond hair, beard, moustache, short tail and mane with a ponytail. She couldn’t belive it but it was him...
“Wha... Oh my... Quick bring some help! He’s still breathing.” - Twilight yelled and Rainbow Dash didn’t wait for her anything more.
Ponyville’s Hospital
“How is it possible? I saw him die by lightning bolt! Nevermind, as long as he is still alive I don’t care...” - Luna said as they waited in waiting room.
“Luna you should really calm down... And wait a minute, lightning bolt?” - Rainbow Dash asked.
“Rainbow Dash...” - Twilight groaned at her friend.
“Just asking, maybe it was some sort of teleportation spell or something.” - Raibow Dash tried to explain what she had in mind.
“Teleportation spell? You’re reading too many books and that’s me saying it.” - Twilight said.
“You’re telling me that I’m becoming an egghead?!” - Rainbow Dash started to sweat.
“There’s nothing bad in being smart...” - Twilight was interupted by Rarity.
“Gilrs! We’re didn’t came here to fight but to help Luna deal with this whole situation.” - Rarity said.
“What is taking them so long?” - Luna asked worried.
“Don’t worry Princess, he will be fine.” - Applejack sad, and after a while doctor came in.
“Well, there’s a good news. He’s alright but... He doesn’t seem to remember everything after his “death”. Also he can’t remember his name and doesn’t have his cutie mark.” - Doctor said.
“So he doesn’t remember everything?” - Luna asked.
“No, only his name and cutie mark are gone. That never happend before, I think there might been magic involved.” - Doctor said and looked at Luna.
“We will take him to Old Sister’s Castle. We will give him the best care in Equestria... May I... See him?” - Luna asked with
relief.
“Yes, but only you Princess. We don’t want him to get heart attack.” - Doctor said laughing a bit.
“Go Luna, at least try to hide that tears.” - Applejack said, and Luna got a blush on her face.
When she opened doors to his room, she still couldn’t believe it. He was right there, her savior and only pony besides Celestia to ever love her. She didn’t waited until he sees her, She flew straight to him and gave him a warm hug.
“What in the...” - He opened his eyes in disbelieve.
“I know what you’re thinking and I know it’s strange. I’ve read your journal. I love you... I love you too...” - Luna said while crying.
“How... Oh right now I remember... That lightning bolt... But what happend to me I don’t remember anything at all...” - he said.
“We will find now I promise...” - Luna was still huging him.
“You’re not letting me go today aren’t you?” - he asked with a little smile.
“Nope...” - And she still didn’t.
“Could you at least tell how much did I missed?” - he asked.
“Well...”
Luna started to began to tell me about everything that happend to Equestria after my... well “death” and yes she was still holding me.
What will happen next? Who knows...
One thing is certain. Everything is going to be all right...
Canterlot
Few days after “Nameless Pony” cameback, Princess Twilight Sparkle sent letters to her friends in some urgent case. She didn’t had to wait long for them...
“Hey there sugarcube! What’s going on?” - Applejack asked as soon as she and other friends of Twilight entered the her throne room.
“We’re in the state of war, civil war as the matter of fact.” - Twilight replied.
“What? Already? How? In the name of Celestia we were ruling Equestria for like few weeks!” - Rainbow Dash said with surprise on her face.
“It’s only civil war, and it isn’t completely ours.” - Twilight said trying to calm down her friends.
“Ok, seriously, Darling stop with riddles! What’s going on?” - Rarity asked.
“I’ve made new friends... well Spike did. He sailed to a distant continent where he allied our country with the ruling in that land... orcs.” - Twilight said.
“Oh! I know who they’re! They’re cousins of yaks!” - Pinkie said happily.
“Yes Pinkie. They need help in civil war they’re dealing with. Ponies from Myrtana aren’t that good as we’re... Well most of them.” - Twilight said after Pinkie calmed down.
“What do you mean by most of them?” - Fluttershy asked.
“Some are like us... Some seek help... And some seek a hideout. And that’s why I need you to go to Ponyville and talk to war refugees.” - Twilight said as she pointed at the door.
“Yeah, but you didn’t tell us even how they look. How are we gonna...” - Rainbow Dash was interupted by Twilight.
“Just look for ponies calling themselves Followers of Adanos. Water Mages.”
“Why can’t you go with us? It will take hours to find them...” - Rainbow dash said.
“Beacause... You know what? I don’t have anything important to do at this moment. Let’s go girls!”
Ponyville’s Port
“Saturas! I’ve made a deal with mayor of this city. We can make it here.” - Myxir said as he approached his master.
“Good. Gather the rest. I will start right away.” - Saturas said and Myxir noded.
“Welcome Arch-Mage!” - a voice from behind greeted newcomers.
“Ah... Princess Twilight! And her friends, it’s good to see somepony nice for a change.” - Saturas said.
“Girls, this is Saturas, he came from his travel across Varant, so he could spread the word of Adanos.” - Twilight said to her friends.
“Word of Adanos? You’re priest or something?” - Rainbow Dash asked.
“Something like that.” - Saturas said and smiled then started to speek again.
“We came to this land to hold the harmony. We won’t make any troubles. You’re welcome to listen to our speeches.”
“Maybe you could introduce us to your friends?” - Twilight asked.
“I don’t have much time but you’re welcome to speak to everypony after we’re done.” - Saturas said.
“After you’re done with what?” - Twilight asked.
“Come with us...” - Saturas said as he saw his friends walk off the ship.
They went to a place agreed with the mayor. They all gathered in a circle. All of eight mages, started to making spells? Weirdest thing is that, half of them weren’t even unicorns and one was earth pony. Suddenly earth quaked, and from underground rose a big building, it looked like temple. Scared ponies took the step back.
“Well, what are you waiting for? Come in. Ask your questions.” - Saturas said and entered sanctuary with other mages.
“That was...” - Rarity tried to comment on this phenomenon.
“Weird? Impossible? Because that’s what it is, and yet it happened. We should enter and not waste more time on talking.” - Twilight said.
She and her friends entered sanctuary. Everypony was astonished ‘cause of fact, that building from outside looked smaller, much smaller. Probably some magic spell, that helped them make bigger space, that’s a good way to save some money. There were few corridors, each leaded to doors, and behind it... Again probably another magical room. Everypony went other ways. Twilight was left on her own. She looked at the signs, one of them had library on it. Non of her friends went that way... Typical, so she decided to go in there.
“Wow...” - Twilight looked over that place, she never saw library that big, and that means something.
“Good thing there’s somepony that likes books and scrolls like me.” - a voice from upper level of library sounded.
“Urgh... You have no idea. Where are you?” - Twilight asked while she looked around, and then a flash of light blinded Twilight for a bit.
“Right here. My name is Huter. I’m apprentice in the service of Adanos. I take care of book and magic scrolls.” - Water Mage said.
“That’s great! We will have a lot to... Wait, magic scrolls?!’ - Twilight said happily flying into air.
“Uhm... Yes, you’re not you are not familiar with them right?” - Huter asked.
“No! You will have to tell me everything about it!” - Twilight said.
“If I will have time... By the way did you meet other mages? I know, you know only Saturas.” - Huter asked.
“Well, nope. First thing I did in here was entering this library.” - Twilight said finally landing down.
“Then let me tell you quick about them...” - Huter started to tell Twilight everything important about other mages.
