Introduction
Equestria - 600 years after the Great war.
The sight of the rebuilt cities stood before what had once been a great and desolate wasteland. Most of those that had witnessed the horrors of the great war, and the actions of the heroes that saw the salvation of Equestria itself, had long since perished.
There were rumors that a few individuals remained. Stories of sightings of a mare that matched the description of the Security Mare, or Blackjack as she was called. Rumors of a lost Pegasus Ghoul that pulled an aging cart, but those sightings and rumors were more hearsay than actual fact.
Besides, little could set aside the joy and rapture as the various corporations that had risen from the ashes and pushed progress forward.
One of the first things they found was a solar system so much like their own. and it had not one, but at least seven planets that had the potential for sustaining the various beings that lived in their world.
The corporations ensured that their actions were legal, declared the rights of the solar system, and they began the single greatest movement seen by Pony kind.
"Tired of your life on Equestria? Feel as if there is nowhere new left to explore, nothing left to discover? Then join the Celestial Board as a colonist! We need doctors, engineers, and even toaster repair ponies! Guaranteed work awaits you!
Thanks to the reengineered hibernation tanks designed by the former Ministry of Peace the ten year trek to the colony will seem like a few minutes! Enjoy your rest, wake up refreshed, and set out for adventure!"
The ship waiting for them was one of the largest ships ever created. It far outclassed the rockets that had once been used in the first space exploration missions. Of course it had to be. It hadn't been a few individuals that volunteered, but instead it was thousands. The ship was filled with hibernation tanks, the course was set, and it used the latest in space travel to move exceptional distances in such a short amount of time. The latest advancement was the Flash Drive Engines.
Engines designed to use magical crystals embedded into a rune work that would propel the ship at faster than light speeds.
The reason for the tanks weren't only for keeping those traveling from aging, but to protect them during the journey itself. The ship was equipped with the most advanced computer guidance system ever created.
The Crusader Maneframe Mark V. Everything that could be done to ensure that the cargo of the most advanced minds to ever leave Equestra had been seen to.
So, naturally, it was a massive surprise when the computer miscalculated its path. What should have taken ten years took ninety. The colonist ship known as Luna Seven disappeared into folklore.
Until today...
