Prologue: The Mausoleum part 1
Load Full StoryNext ChapterIn the broadcast footage of Equestria's Daily News.......
"Greetings every pony, we are now on the air as we initiate a broad cast of what Professor Fossil has uncovered in the excavation site down at an underground Mausoleum in the Everfree forest." The reporter announced.w
"So Professor Fossil, what kind of leads did your team uncovered so far?" The anchor pony added in.
As the next camera turns on, it now shows Professor Fossil holding a clipboard of several notes before she faces the camera.
"Oh, what we have here is several ancient tapes that were written by ponies dating back to the early years after the three pony tribes united during their first Hearts Warming Eve."
"And what tapes intrigue you the most so far?" The reporter asked from off-screen.
"Well, if you really want to know. All I can tell is that, most of them have a dark outline in what some of the ponies and the Pillars of Equestria had been through. I'm just grateful Rockhoof isn't here right now. He wouldn't restrain himself like last time." Professor Fossil continued, feeling skeptical after what the huge Earth Pony did when he first showed up in his old hometown. "Ponies that were trapped in the void for more than a thousand years and released recently is not a normal thing that every pony sees everyday."
"Hehehheheh!! Well, I'm pretty sure that the Pillars of Equestria will be occupied elsewhere for now." The reporter giggled.
"As of now, I'm at the Canterlot Museum trying to keep track of the inquiry of archeological team in the underground Masoleum." Fossil continued.
"Wait, you mean you're not at the excavation site?" The anchor pony asked, feeling a bit shocked.
"Not this time. I have another mare in charge of the Archaeological team there."
From the footage of the camera, it then shows some pony holding it as the archaeological team is unearthing several old tapes found inside the Mausoleum throughout afternoon.
On the table, there is 5 mysterious dusty tapes that one unicorn mare is brushing gently with her little duster. As the camera faces her, she is seen as a light-brown unicorn, yellow mane, and with the cutie mark of an orb with a scroll in it.
"Hi, every pony. My name is Vision Scroll and I happened to be an archaeologist that is in charge of the excavation site near the Mausoleum. One of my associates uncovered this strange tomb in the Everfree Forest below the Castle of the Two Sisters about three days ago. He made his report to me and Professor Fossil, so I went down here with my team to uncover what kind of secret history was kept hidden in the Mausoleum."
As the camera turns towards Vision's team, they are seen up close as they continue to carefully gather the scrolls, documents, ancient texts, and dusty video tapes. There is about 10 ponies working down here with Vision Scroll as they setup a perimeter of yellow tape around the tomb before establishing their site. In the middle of the site, the mausoleum is seen as a tall and wide large tomb bearing the structure similar to that of a house made of concrete. Surrounding the tomb, they have tents setup, ponies bringing in buckets of water from a nearby stream, and bringing out crates filled with cleaning materials and tools to preserve the old artifacts.
With Vision's camera seeing herself checking on the paperwork, she is then greeted by an earth pony as the camera turn to face him. He is seen with a dark-green skin color with a grey mane, bearing the cutie mark of a magnifying glass.
"This is my associate, Viridian Watcher. We both have been working together with Professor Fossil for 5 years before we started our own team of Archaeologists." Vision announced as she turned towards the earth colt. "So Viridian, how are you able to find the underground mausoleum?"
"Well actually, the Young Six stumbled upon it when they were doing another detour at the bottom of the cliffs near the CastIe. It wasn't long before they came to my house before they explained it all to me. So, I had them all leave the forest so that they won't interfere with our excavation here." Viridian explained briefly.
"I see, well because the tapes are all dusty and extremely fragile to handle, I'll try something else instead just to uncover what is recorded in their footage." Vision replied as her horn starts to lit up in a glowing-blue hue.
"What are you doing?" Viridian asked feeling nauseous on what Vision is up to.
"It's okay, Viridian. My projection visionary footage spell will show us everything that these tapes have in store for us." Vision said as she shoots out her magic at the first tape on her left near the edge of the table. As Vision's spell struck the tape, it opens up a magical tv screen that comes out of it for her and Viridian to see.
