A deranged and sadistic captor beleives that Twilight Sparkle has an alternate, all powerfull primal form, similar to the royal sisters. The psychotic maniac is prepared to do anything to prove their theory and activate Twilight's true form. Anything

In the farthest corner of Equestria, an amateur researcher and practicing psychiatrist, who also happens to suffer from mental illness like delusional psychosis and paranoid schizophrenia, has become obsessed with the thought that, like Luna and Celestia being the physical manifestations of the spirits of Darkness and Light, Night and Day, a third spirit, the only force that can settle a conflict between the primal forces of Dark and Light, has also gained a physical manifestation into pony form. This researcher spent years of their life believing the physical form of the harmony spirit, the third spirit that only legend mentions of, to be a lavender alicorn pony living in Ponyville, and has dedicated their entire life to watching, studying and becoming completely obsessed with the pony known as Twilight Sparkle.

Having watched Twilight Sparkle, and her five ordinary Ponyville friends take on some of the most terrifying, evil beings ever to walk the earth, and seeing the mare achieve the impossible to become an alicorn, the creature has become convinced that this is more than just a supposed magic of friendship, and that this little alicorn is the manifestation of the third spirit: The Great Equal, as it has calls her.

The researcher has since been devising a plan to capture the mare, and uncover her true secrets for the world to see, and make history by being the one to tame and weaponize the spirit, and the beast it creates as its primal form.

Years of obsessive study of the alicorn have proven that the way to complete control of Twilight Sparkle's soul, is through the control of her precious friends. And then, the releasing of the primal beast within her would be done through an intense sexual torment. Or atleast, so the researcher believes... After all, the theory has proven successful on a particular test subject...

Welcome to the Machine

Her eyes were still adjusting to the light; she instinctively tried to hold a hoof up to shield herself from the light, but instantly remembered her front legs were bound together in front of her. Twilight Sparkle had spent the last few days isolated and completely deprived of almost all her senses, today was her first day in a long time being able to see, hear or even breathe fresh oxygen, or at least what ever she was able to inhale through the tight muzzle strapped over her maw. She was in the center of a large room that appeared to look like an operating room. Her front and hind legs were both separately bound together, and beneath her body was what felt like a kind of bench; it had mechanical parts all around it that suggested it could move and flatten out. Above her was a large operating light which shined brightly down onto her, aside from this, the whole room was completely dark. She let out a low, whimpering moan which was muffled not only by the muzzle, but also the ball gag strapped tightly inside her mouth underneath the leather muzzle. Her faint cry of fatigue and desperation still managed to travel though, because it was answered by a deep, mechanical voice.

“Such a beautiful, sensual sound…” the voice said. It sounded feminine, but heavily computerized, and sounded eerily full of a twisted emotion.

“The moans of a pony in confusion and desperation; could there be any sweeter sound?” the voice seemed coaxing.

“Mmmph?” Twilight muffled beneath her gag, trying to look around the room, as much as her restraints allowed her to move. Her bound legs were further bound to the odd bench underneath her body, and her wings were also bound with a strap that held her body to the bench. She had a thick posture collar around her neck which restricted her head movement, and her horn felt like it was capped with something. When Twilight tried to use her magic; tiny sparks flew from her horn, and then a great shock of electricity was shot through her entire body. For a split second, Twilight felt like thousands of hot knives pierced her skin, then the sensation stopped, and she was left panting and moaning in surprise and pain.

“Oh dear” the mechanical voice almost cooed “That looked exceedingly painful. That advanced magic suppression cap is far more effective than I ever dreamed. It is designed to absorb magical energy from the wearer, and then return it in the form of pain. It not only prevents the use of magic by unicorn and alicorn ponies, but deters the use of magic completely, promoting complete submission. It is truly a magnificent piece of engineering.” The voice had a sickening glitch on the last sentence, varying in pitch and followed by a bad reverb echo, as if the computer producing the voice was malfunctioning.

Twilight was still panting, recovering from her electrocution. Her breaths were laboured and made a sharp hiss sound through the tiny air holes in the muzzle, her only source for oxygen. Her ears pricked up at the sound of footsteps behind her.

“Mmmhmmph!” She moaned as she tried desperately to see who was approaching behind her.

“There, there, it’s alright princess.” The voice continued normally. The footsteps drew closer, they were almost beside her.

“After all,” The voice was glitching again and sounded nearer to her “This is a friendly face!”

A pony stepped into Twilight’s view, tall and cyan with what appeared to be the remnants of a brilliant rainbow-coloured tail. It was Rainbow Dash, but she looked very different. Her cutie mark on both flanks was blacked out by a tar like substance that seemed to eat through her coat and skin right into her flesh; her tail was almost completely cut off at the root, and her head was covered by a large helmet. It looked almost like it was fitted onto her, as if it was on permanently; it had several blinking lights all over it, and two circles where her eyes were, but instead of seeing her magenta eyes, there were only green light strips, which looked directly into Twilights purple eyes, glistening more than usual in the bright light of the surgical lamp. Twilight was horrified at the sight of her friend in such a state.

“Dashie!” she tried to shriek through her tight gag but all that came out was “Dmmthmm!”

There was a speaker on the helmet where Rainbow Dash’s mouth was, spanning the width Dash’s lips

“No Twilight Sparkle!” The mechanical voice boomed from the speaker mounted to Dash’s maw “I am not Rainbow Dash. I am a being far greater than your average pony.” The voice was very glitched now; sharp static and reverb drowned out the last few words.

Twilight’s mind began to race. “Where am I?” she thought “And what has this… thing… done to poor Dashie?” her heart beat faster, she tried to wriggle a part of her free. Her legs… her wings… but it was useless, she was bound too tightly to the bench.

“You are in a place you have been before, Twilight Sparkle” the voice continued to glitch and reverb “and Rainbow Dash has become a helper of mine, one to carry out my bidding. As for what I have done to her… well we’ll get to that”

“Did it just… read my mind?” Twilight wondered

“Yes!” The voice boomed the most distorted yet “I did just read your mind. It’s all courtesy of that magnificent device you wear on your horn. Your thoughts are mine to see”

“Mmmh!” Twilight tried to shout into her gag, she began to thrash about violently in her restraints, muffling shrieks under her muzzle, and then another painful shock of electricity tore through her body.

“ENOUGH!” the voice boomed from Dash’s helmet “There won’t be any need for this!”

“Who are you?!” Twilight thought shuddering in pain.

“Ah, the smart pony finally asks a smart question” The voice taunted with an echoing reverb on the last word that seemed endless.

Twilight’s heart rate increased as she heard more footsteps all around her.

“fine" the voice distorted "you desire answers, and answers you shall receive. But first, I want to… show you something"

Twilight felt dread rising in her throat as the footsteps drew near. As the outlines she saw in front of her drew closer, her heart all but stopped. Her eyes were wide with shock and sheer terror. Looking the same way as Rainbow Dash did, Applejack and Rarity approached and stood stone still beside Dash, looking at Twilight with the same metal helmets and green light strips as eyes. Their tails were cut too and cutie marks seemingly burnt out with the same tar like substance. Rarity had stains of blood running down her flank from her marks, practically leaping off her marshmallow coat, suggesting that whatever was done to her was recent. Twilight couldn't make a sound, she could only stare in shock. She felt as if she were electrocuted again when something lightly touched her flank; she jerked in her restraints and saw Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie walk by her sides and join the rest of the ponies in front of Twilight. They too had the same helmets, cut tails and burnt out cutie marks.

Twilight felt a tear roll down her face. She felt it against her face until it rolled onto the thick leather muzzle and she no longer felt its wet stick.

"Mmmno" she managed to moan

"This can’t be happening!" She thought to herself.

"It is happening, Twilight Sparkle" the voice now came through Pinkie Pie's helmet.

"It's all real" now it was Fluttershy's helmet.

"Whnn?" Twilight muffled "why are you doing this?" She thought

Rainbow Dash stepped forward and the voice spoke from her helmet.

"You, Twilight Sparkle, are a remarkable creature" the voice spoke with perfect clarity now, any glitching completely gone.

"You single hoofedly took on any threat to your land of Equestria, and have prevailed time and again. Creatures so powerful, so evil, so incredibly sadistic, have attempted to take over your disgustingly colourful world, and you made each and every one of them look like complete imbeciles. Most would wonder how this is possible for a sextet of pathetic equines, but you claim it’s all in the name of friendship and harmony"

Rarity stepped forward, and now the voice came from her helmet.

"I do not believe this" the voice was as distorted and reverberated as ever

"I don't believe petty little values like ‘friendship’ and ‘harmony’ vanquished the likes of Sombra, Chrysalis, Tirek, the Spirit of Darkness… just look what you made of Discord!” The cold, sharp static of the distorted mechanical voice made Twilight shiver.

“Do not tell me, Twilight Sparkle, that “Harmony” alone quelled the wrath of Nightmare Moon, when the spirit of darkness was waging war against its counterpart. Do not tell me the so called “Magic of Friendship” made the Lord of Chaos, a being who once had the royal sisters begging for mercy, stoop so low as to fornicate with one of your kind!” the word echoed in all directions for an unnaturally long time, as if whomever was controlling the voice had artificially prolonged the echo effect through some means.

“No” The voice came from Applejack’s helmet, after a long pause. “I have been watching you for a very long time, Twilight Sparkle, and I believe that there is more to you. Much, much more. Something you may not even realize about your own self…”

The air seemed to chill around Twilight; she was already shivering from the sound of the voice, but now she was downright freezing, as if an air conditioning unit had been directed onto her.

“…something only I can find through careful and meticulous practise…”

The green lights on the helmets where her friends’ eyes would have been began to flash, and the ponies all began to move in different directions, all except Rainbow Dash who remained motionless standing in front of Twilight. Twilight strained to look where the others were going, but they disappeared into the veil of darkness.

Twilight squeezed her eyes shut and tears fought their way in. She concentrated with all her might on the words “Let my friends go!”

“If I let these ponies go now,” the voice cracked from Rainbow’s helmet “their physical bodies would collapse and die, while their minds spiralled into madness. It would be… very unpleasant to see, not to mention a waste of invaluable helping hooves” the voice trailed off in a sadistic reverb. “No, I don’t think I’ll be releasing these ponies any time soon, for both our own good.”

“Mmmhmm MMMM!!” Twilight screeched hopelessly into her ball gag. She began to thrash about in her tight restraints again, shaking the entire bench and even the light above her. Another paralyzing shock ripped through her body, more painful than the last. Twilight’s head fell limp against her collar, she was panting weakly, her breaths whistling through the microscopic air holes on her muzzle.

“Oh Princess, surely Celestia taught you better obedience in her ridged classroom than this?” The mechanical voice cooed sickly.

“There is fight within you, Twilight Sparkle.” Rainbow Dash began to pace slowly around Twilight’s bondage, dragging the mechanical voice eerily around Twilight. “My analysis of you was correct. You are a being of sheer, raw power. You accomplished the feat of becoming an alicorn. The Pillars, The Royal Sisters, even the Lord of Chaos himself bow before you as a mistress. You are a powerful weapon, Twilight Sparkle.”

Twilight grimaced at the word weapon.

“Fairest Princess, how does such incredible power hide within such a pathetic form? A mere pony who idolizes friendship and love, wasting her time teaching dragons and yaks to ‘coexist’ in a vile insult to biology!”

Twilight heard the figures of her friends moving back toward her. They appeared to be pushing things in front of them, but all Twilight could see clearly was the blinking of lights on the horrific helmets that imprisoned her friends. She shut her eyes again, unable to look anymore.

“I’ll tell you how. It’s because you are too much like the sisters. Tell me Princess, do you think Equestria would ever have been threatened if those mares embraced their true forms?”

Twilight wanted to protest, to wriggle in her bonds, but she had little energy after her most recent shocking.

"I see the power within you, Twilight Sparkle, I feel it. You have your own secret power, just like the sisters, waiting to be unlocked by one with the skill and ability to do it"

Twilight tried to concentrate. "You're wrong!" She thought weakly.

"Am I?" The voice crackled from Dash's helmet as she paced "there is more to you than a mere pony who lived in Ponyville for ten years, learning the inferior ways of peasants from 5 mares who don't know any better."

Twilight wanted to scream. To hit whoever this voice belonged to. To use her magic to blast the evil devices of the heads of her friends and run away, but all she could do was lift her head and open her eyes. She could see now what her friends were pushing: mirrors. Large mirrors which they began to place all around Twilight.

"We will soon see just how much you are capable of." The voice was pitching all over. "A very select few may be able to coax the real Twilight Sparkle from her cute little shell. But only a hand such as mine can tame whatever comes out!"

Twilight felt the bench she was bound over begin to rumble, as if a motor had been activated. She felt the back side of the bench begin to move, and it raised her hind legs and her flanks up to a prone position. Her forelegs slid forward and touched the ground to support her weight.

Twilight looked around, in all directions all she could see was the reflection of herself lying on the bench with her hind legs in the air. The rest of the ponies gathered all around her, the lights over their eyes blinking in perfect unison. The voice rang simultaneously out of all the ponies’ helmets, making it sound even more unsettling.

“Now, Princess, we will begin!”

The lights blinking on the ponies’ imprisoning helmets stopped blinking, and were now a steady on. Rarity stepped forward. Her helmet was moulded to fit perfectly over her horn, but despite its cover, her horn still glowed its usual blue aura as she activated her magic. Rarity used her magic to unfasten the bounds on Twilight’s hind legs. Twilight felt the warm relief of blood returning to her hooves. Fluttershy came up beside Rarity, and in her wing was a metal rod with more leather straps. Twilight groaned into her gag, she immediately recognized it as a spreader bar. Rarity used her magic fasten the straps on Twilight’s hooves, spreading her legs wide apart. Rarity further used her magic to swiftly tuck Twilight’s tail into her wing restraints. Twilight’s marehood was now completely exposed.

“There now, that’s a far better view. Don’t you think?” The voice reverberated out of Rarity’s helmet.

Twilight looked into the mirror in front of her, her gagged reflection stared back at her, but the mirror reflected off the one behind her and she had a clear view of her throbbing mound. Her cheeks turned a deep red and she let out a low whimpering moan.

“There’s the sound I missed so much!” The voice cooed with minimal distortion.

Applejack and Rainbow Dash came up next. Applejack had a basket full of devices on her back and Rainbow held a device in her wing.

“Mmno!” Twilight moaned into her gag, she knew exactly what Dashie was holding.

“Yes, Princess. The key to understanding you as a specimen.” The voice crackled out of Pinkie Pie’s helmet beside Twilight.

“Finally! My research comes to its grand conclusion!” The voice was pitching sharply again.

“Our experiment will take place in three phases. The first phase will be a bit of a test run; a simple exploration of your sexual anatomy. The second phase will determine your biological limits… and how far past those limits we can push…”

Twilight whimpered desperately into her gag.

“And finally, the third phase is where we discover who, or what, the real Twilight Sparkle is!”

The last words were reverberated from the helmets of all the ponies in a sickening circular echo around Twilight. The horrific sound, combined with the three hundred and sixty degrees of mirror encasing her was already maddening, but Twilight knew it was mercy compared to what she was in for. Twilight was never much for sexual pleasure with other ponies, she only ever played alone, and was very soft core, but now Twilight was overcome with dread, for she knew she would be utterly violated by her own friends, while she watched every move.

Twilight felt tears flood her eyes. She gasped for air through her restrictive muzzle. She was sobbing hard, her sounds muffled by her tight gags, her movement restricted by the paralyzing bondage she was confound to. Her pussy exposed and free to be taken by her invisible captor, who already all but killed her best friends. Sob after sob, Twilight wretched her hopelessness, often interrupted by choking and coughing due to her air holes clogging with tears and snot. The next stinging shock tore through Twilight’s body, silencing her sobs and replacing them with laboured, exhausted grunts.

“That will be quite enough, Princess!” The voice boomed loudly “each shock takes bodily toll, and we need your energy for my experiment!”

There was silence except for Twilight’s desperate panting. “Please” She thought “Please, stop! I’m begging you!”

“Begin” Was all the voice said. At that moment the lights on the ponies’ helmets began a quick flash. Rainbow Dash took her position back in front of Twilight, while the rest of the mares gathered around behind her around her exposed legs. Twilight saw Rarity’s horn light up, then she felt a cold, wet sensation around her anus.

“First, we will fill the excess” The voice crackled out of Rainbow’s helmet.

Twilight felt the cold, wet, tapered metal shaft slowly but firmly slide inside her rectum. Twilight groaned in pain and her eyes widened as her ponut was stretched to accompany the cold, slick rod. It reached its end, and her asshole was finally allowed to contract around the large object.

“There, that’s better” The voice cooed.

Twilight moaned a deep, painful moan.

Next, Twilight felt a soft, sensual touch around her inner thighs. It was the unmistakable gentle touch of Fluttershy’s hooves.

“Now we will begin what I like to call the pre touch phase” The voice coaxed “Slow, sensual massaging of the nethers. If you close your eyes, you will notice a spiralling pattern towards the vaginal cavity.”

Twilight was floored that this sadistic voice was trying to make her enjoy this. Though, she had to admit, Fluttershy had the touch of a goddess; Twilight couldn’t help but moan softly as the magical hooves closed in on her marehood.

“Nice, soft motions” The voice calmly continued “easing you into an intense arousal. We will soon move on toward the best part”

Somewhere behind her, Twilight heard the vibrator Dash was holding earlier flick on to its lowest setting. She felt it touch ever so slightly onto her clitoris, and she gave a deep, sensual moan.

“Warming up, aren’t we, Princess?” the voice cooed, flanging on the last word.

Twilight felt her pussy swelling, there was no denying she was turned on, but she felt disgusted with herself for enjoying such a sick event. She moaned loudly, trying to awake herself for the building trance inside her brain, but the mechanical voice only edged her on. The vibrator buzzed smoothly at her clit in slow, spiral motions sending shocks of pleasure throughout Twilight’s body, equivalent in intensity to her electrocutions. She felt her juices freely flowing from her mound, pooling between her legs on the bench she lay on. Then, the vibrator stopped, and Twilight grunted in frustration. Nothing mattered to her in that instant. Not her torture, not her demented captor, not even her fury at her own self that she was enjoying this, all Twilight wanted was for the vibrator to turn back on.

“Is that pleasure I sense in you, Twilight Sparkle?” the voice seemed to taunt “We’d better do something about that!”

The vibrator returned, slightly higher in intensity, with slightly faster spirals. Twilight moaned long and deep into her ball gag, her eyes rolled back into her head. She hated to admit that she was experiencing pure bliss.

“That’s a good princess” the voice soothed “Enjoy this, a creature like you is not only strong, but beautiful. There is power in beauty too, Twilight Sparkle, don’t you ever forget that.”

“Mmmhmm” Twilight moaned in ecstasy. The vibrations continued in soft patterns, occasionally speeding up, but always returning to the low setting, never allowing Twilight closer to the edge than she was permitted.

“I think we may take it a bit further, don’t you think, Princess?” And the vibrator stopped, much to Twilight’s frustration.

“Now, now, Princess!” The voice scolded “We’ve barely began, and already you’re a mess! Oozing your fluids from a mere vibrator? Just you wait, I have something extra special for you.”

Twilight saw Applejack take an object in her hoof from her basket, she then felt a slick sensation around her mound.

“We shall see how a stallion has treated you in the past, Twilight Sparkle, and then we shall top the experience!”

Twilight felt the slick shaft slowly edge into her tight marehood. Twilight had never moaned so deep and long in her life. Had she not been gagged she would have uttered some truly vulgar words in her overwhelming pleasure. The phallus was wide and studded, each nub sending paralyzing pleasure shuddering through Twilight’s body.

“Do you want more, Princess?” The voice coaxed, flanging all around the sound waves.

“Mmmhmmm” Twilight moaned deeply. To her ecstatic pleasure the vibrator was reintroduced to her sensitive clit, buzzing away at the swollen mound, while the studded shaft kissed her walls. Twilight was getting close to the edge, she could feel it. Any self-hatred for her pleasure was gone now, all that mattered was the pure magic that was being worked on her pussy. The electric feeling was further elevated by Fluttershy’s sensual touch. Twilight was close, her flower throbbed longingly, expelling an ocean of her hot juices onto the bench.

“Look at yourself, Princess” the voice cooed. In the mirrors all around her, all Twilight could see was her bondage. She saw the wonderful work being worked on her swollen, throbbing, soaking wet pussy. She no longer saw a helpless mare being tortured, but rather a beautiful princess being properly fucked. She was in heaven. Her moans were getting louder, Twilight knew she was close, any second now she would come up on her release, and she would try to hold it off as long as she possible could, and then allow herself over the edge into orgasmic heaven. The way she felt her vulva pulse, she knew she was unbearably close to her sweet release.

“Do you want to come, Princess?” The voice cooed.

“Mmmhmm!” Twilight moaned

“I want you to tell me” the voiced pitched

“Please! Please let me come!” She concentrated her mind on the words.

“No, I mean say it. Beg me for it” The voiced coaxed, returning to its reverberating pitch.

“Pnnnth lnnt mnn cmmm!” She moaned through her gag

“Again!” the voice commanded

Twilight was incredibly close now, any second.

“Pnnnth! Pnnnth lnnt mnn cmmm!” She begged

She was right there. She began counting down in her head from five.

Four… three… two…

“PNNNTH!” she begged

As she said “one” in her head the vibrator was pulled away from her clit. Twilight grunted in frustration. She tried arching herself into the bed, trying to put pressure on the dildo inside her to get over the edge, but it was quickly, and painfully yanked from her mound. Twilight moaned and grunted in frustration, thrashing in her restraints and trying anything to bring her over the edge, but it was too late, the feeling was subsiding; only enraging Twilight further. She was grunting loudly into the gag and trying to grind the bench, when another wave of searing pain washed over her entire body, longer this time than before. It was as if her very atoms were being electrocuted. When it subsided, Twilight could not even moan. She was an exhausted mess of pain and frustration, every sense of pleasure from her throbbing pussy, gone.

“Oh Princess, you didn’t really expect me to let you come so soon, did you?” The voice said coldly.

“But that was a marvellous show you put on for me! You once again affirmed to me what an incredible creature you are.”

Twilight just whimpered into her gag.

“I knew your magical power was amazing, Princess, but now I have seen how breathtaking your sexual desire is. I would call this a very successful phase one!” The voice shrieked in its distortion.

“Why…?” Twilight’s mind was foggy, she could barely keep her eyes open. “…Dashie…”

Rainbow Dash stepped up to Twilight and in one quick motion she dug her wing under Twilight’s head lifting it up, forcing her eyes right up into the green slits on Dash’s helmet. Twilight’s throat was pushed against her thick collar, cutting off her air supply into her already restricted breathing situation.

“Rainbow Dash is gone, Princess!” The voice boomed from the speaker covering Dash’s mouth “As are the rest of them! Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, all GONE! You are the only thing that matters, Twilight Sparkle, I will get inside of you, I will unlock your true power, and I will tame you and turn you into my weapon! Just like the sisters, I will unleash your primal form, and all of this disgusting land will fear me. Harmony will be destroyed forever, and your primal power will be what burns Ponyville to the ground! Ponies will be my slaves to do whatever I want with! And you, my all powerful creature of magic, will be my own personal executioner, raining the worst form of terror on all who defy me!

Dash dropped Twilight’s head, and then another, slightly less intense wave of pain shot through her body. Twilight’s head hung over her collar, she was barely breathing. She wanted to die, to be put out of this misery.

“Now” The voice said again “Phase two” And the sound of a smaller vibrator came on. Twilight felt this buzzing sensation pressed against her nipples above of her pussy, sending a brand new wave of pleasure through her body, which was met with another deep, long moan.

“Yes, that’s a good princess” The voice cooed coldly “Phase two is the most intense, Princess. It’s where the subject is pushed past their limits, and is broken”

Twilight felt her dread and despair once again be drowned out by the intense pleasure, this time from her nipples.

Dash ran her wing over Twilight’s face. “Yes” The voice said softly “my analysis was most correct. You truly are a remarkable, extraordinary specimen…”

The green lights on the helmet covering Dash’s eyes changed to red

“I am looking forward to breaking you…Princess!”

Prologue

Since the first ponies to walk the world told their ancient stories, it has become common knowledge that the spirits of Darkness and Light, Night and Day, were manifested into two alicorn sisters.

The Spirits were natural opposites, and would occasionally wage war between each other in the realm beyond ours, but these battles rarely interfered with our world, or the lives of the sisters which held the spirits. The sisters ruled the land of Equestria for thousands of moons in perfect harmony, until eventually the quarreling spirits interacted with the souls of the sisters, awakening a primal form in each which was directly fueled by the spirits of Darkness and Light. This primal force would take over the minds of the sisters, transforming them into ultimate beings with the sole goal of destroying the other. While such a metamorphosis never simultaneously affected both sisters, the Spirit of Darkness has unleashed its primal form in the past in the form of Nightmare Moon, while it's counterpart, Daybreaker, was only ever awakened in the Realm of Dreams. The quarreling spirits could only be settled down by a third spirit of complete purity and harmony, but there is inconclusive evidence that such a spirit has ever manifested into an equine form.

It has been theorized by researchers from all over that a force greater than the Elements of Harmony must be used to calm the Spirits of Darkness and Light, should they ever bring their war to the living world, but the greatest minds today cannot agree what powerful force this could be. Some point to the Elements themselves, and that records might be incorrect on who, or what actually created them and the tree from which they were born. Though that evidence may have been lost forever with the destruction of the Elements. Top priority among historical researchers and archaeologists all over Equestria is to find out more about Harmony as a spirit along side that of Darkness and Light. More research to come, hopefully very soon.

Author's Note

I decided to start this story that mixes darkness and pure evil with a fresh take on the history of Equestria with a clean note entry. There is nothing of particular vulgarity here, this is only to set the story up. The fun begins in chapter one. I hope you enjoy!
Most of you probably won't. And that's ok!
