MLP FIM: The Visionary of Equestria
Prologue
Load Full StoryNext ChapterEquestria...a land of magic, wonder and mystery. Home to magical and fantastical creatures. And it was ruled by two regal sisters who spread harmony and friendship, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna.
Celestia used her power to raise the sun at dawn while Luna used her power to brought out the moon at night. Thus, the two sisters maintained balance for the kingdom and their subjects, for all the different kinds of pony-folk and other creatures.
However as time went on, Luna grew envious of her sister’s popularity. While everyone enjoyed and relished the day her sister brought forth, they shunned and slept through her beautiful night. One fateful day, Luna refused to lower the moon to bring about the dawn. Celestia tried to reason with her sister, but Luna’s bitterness and jealousy had transformed her into a being of pure darkness: Nightmare Moon!!
She vowed to plunge the land in eternal night. Reluctantly, Celestia harnessed the power of the most powerful magic in all of Equestria: the Elements of Harmony. With the Elements of Harmony, Celestia defeated her younger sister and banished her to the moon.
Celestia took responsibility for both sun and moon and harmony was maintained throughout Equestria for generations since. However, it is said that Nightmare Moon will return and exact her revenge on Celestia and all of Equestria and only the Elements of Harmony can stop her.
It was a quiet and peaceful night in the great city of Canterlot, the full moon shining down on the castle and the stars twinkling like diamonds. Everyone was fast asleep in the castle, all but one.
We find a beautiful maiden with long flowing hair of rainbow colored hair which reached to her waist and sparkled like gem stones walking in the garden. She wore a long, white dress that reached down to her feet and wore golden bracelets on her wrists .
Around her neck, was a golden necklace with a purple gem in the center and golden shoes on her feet. On her head was a golden crown with a purple gen at its top. What was strange about her was that her ears were long and pony-like and two great wings were on her back.
This is Princess Celestia, the wise, kind but lonely ruler of Equestria. Normally, she enjoyed these peaceful, nightly walks. Now, her heart was heavy with sorrow and regret. As she looked up at the full moon, her lavender eyes welled up with tears when she saw the silhouette of a woman on the moon’s surface.
“Oh...Luna...” She croaked out, trying to hold back her tears. “How long do I have to suffer like this...?” “How long... must we be apart from each other...?” She sobbed quietly to herself. Memories of her sister flooded into her mind, happy memories of their sisterly bond before jealously overcame her and turned her into Nightmare Moon, forcing her to banish her to the moon.
*Waaah...Waaah....*
A strange noise snapped Celestia out of her mourning and looked around in surprise. “Who’s there?” She asked. Her pony-like ears picking up the sound of crying, like the sound of an infant crying. She lifted up her dress and followed the sound to some bushes.
As she got closer, the crying grew louder. Carefully, she parted the bushes to find out what was making the noise. What she saw made her gasp and her eyes widen. Lying on a bed of moss, was a little baby boy, about a month old with black hair and wrapped in a swaddling blanket. It was crying and wiggling its chubby arms in the air. There was a note attached to the front.
“Oh my goodness...” Celestia whispered, her face softening into a concerned look. “Where did you come from, little one?” She asked gently as she tenderly lifted the baby in her arms and rocked it gently. She looked around, wondering where its parents were; only to find no sigh of them.
It was then she noticed the note attached to the blanket and opened it up. It read:
To whoever finds this child,
I am the caretaker of this child. He was given to me after his parents have died since they have no living relatives. I was able to care for him for a few months but times have grown hard and I am unable to care for him any longer. Out of love for him, I decided to give him to someone who will love and care for him just like I have. I am sorry if I have caused any inconvenience to you but I had no other options. If you are unable to care for him yourself, then at least make sure he is raised by a family who will love him no matter what.
P.S His name is Drew Spirit-Mane and he will be destined for great things
Sincerely,
M
Celestia looked at the note with interest before looking back at the baby, who had stopped crying. The infant looked up at the princess with bright blue eyes, before it squealed with delight and reached out with chubby little hands. Celestia smiled at the little baby boy and kissed him gently on the forehead.
“Come, little one.” She spoke gently to him. “Time to show you to your new home.” With that, she walked back into the palace with the little baby still in her arms. Baby Drew giggled innocently, he knew nothing of the many adventures he would have or the special friends he would meet.
