Guardian

EPILOGUE – CURTAIN

Days pass and Equestria is bright and shining once more. The birds sing and the sun shines, the insects chirp and the moon beams. All of the citizens of the land are free from the ideas of fear and horror, living in peace once again under a now much-more wise leadership.

Twilight raised her head from her pillow with a yawn. No nightmares. She stretched and stepped out of bed, walking down the stairs to a surprising sight. A black book with the insignia of Starswirl the Bearded, alongside a display case containing the Elements of Harmony.

“I wonder what all this is about...” The mulberry unicorn advanced towards the objects with curiosity.

In the center of a clearing in the Everfree Forest, next to a pond, a statue of a white horse with a flowing mane and black flame stripes upon his face was erected. The statue was made to face the north, looking forward with new hope. By its feet rested a plaque with the following inscription:

“Brimstone, the Guardian of Equestria, who, in our time of greatest need, stood valiantly against a threat nopony else could overcome. Wherever his journey leads, may he defend others in need for all eternity.”

The void opened once more in a flash of light. An armored man with silver hair crashed onto the pavement below him. Laying on the cold concrete for a while, he attempted to get his mind straight once again. After about ten minutes, he sat up and listened to the sounds around him. He looked around at his surroundings. Some kind of alley. The buildings to his left and right were incredibly tall, with fire escapes on the sides like he had seen long ago in Taruza city.

He stood up and looked out of the gap between the buildings, seeing objects zipping by. More massive buildings were visible in the distance, something that he found curious. He made it to the end of the alley and looked up in awe at the multitude of vehicles on the land and in the air that zipped past him at incredible speeds.

The billboards moved, pictures changing on them every other minute. Holograms in windows displayed news and entertainment. The people of the city walked as though none of the incredible sights around them were absolutely astounding, but the armored man held his head in wonder as he took in the incredible view.

“Where am I...”
