Deep beneath Ponyville lies a great secret in the form of a uber-secret facility formed by Luna shortly after her return. It was established without the knowledge of her sister or of the bearers of harmony. The mission of the facility was to protect Equestria from those that would try to harm it, ultimately protecting the element bearers from evil. Another goal of the facility was to research the mystical sciences unknown to ponykind through the study of a rift situated through ponyville through which certain creatures have entered, and also through the study of alien tech salvaged from different places across equestria. These are the adventures of the small team of Whooves, Lyra, Caramel, Colgate, and many others who seek to provide peace and technological advances in Equestria.
