It was not long after Celestia had to banish Nightmare Moon that the balance in the elements of harmony began to waver causing their power to weaken across Equestria. This allowed Discord who was only sealed a few years earlier to waken from his stone seal to wage war on Celestia who tried to fight back with the fading powers of Harmony. But without the aid of the full power of the elements of harmony Celestia was forced to sacrifice herself in order to seal Discord away once again, but without the elements of harmony his chaos stayed behind making Equestria a very dangerous place to live. With the fall of their leader the monsters erected a powerful barrier to prevent the elements from seeking out new ponies outside Equestria to wield them, thus giving the monsters time to find and destroy the elements. A thousand years have passed since then and the ponies of Equestria have grown accustomed more or less to the dangers of their new world, but as the land starts to grow more hostile and monsters attacks become more frequent all hope seems to be lost. It is in this darkness that a mare utters the incantation of the spell that would forever change the wheels of destiny.

"Darkness beyond twilight, Crimson beyond blood that flows, Buried in the stream of time is where your power grows"

these are the words that when chanted will make bandits flee in terror, brave men quiver in fear, cause powerful kings to cower, cities to vanish, spook dragons, and even scare the demon lords themselves. This is the tale of the one who made these words famous and dreaded among all who walk this world and beyond. Yes my friends this is the story of the sorceress known as Twily Sparkle and her companions who guided by the spirit of harmony traveled with her in the adventures that would forever change the world.
