Every story has their beginnings, each hero, villian and survivor has an origin story.

This story is about Rachel Lockhart.

Unable to withstand the torments of her abusive father, fifteen year old Rachel embarks a journey to escape her old life when news of a Portal to an alternate universe suddenly opens. Rather than allowing her father having the pleasure to hurt her, she runs away, hopefully for the final time.

How would this new, alien like world full of anthromorphic ponies, Dragons, races she never fathom about take when a human teenager walks among them?

This story details her process through the Two Hundred Application Trials and finding her new family.
