“It has yet to be proven that intelligence has any survival value.”
After several nights of studious reading, numerous attempts of puzzle-solving, and prophetic dreams, Twilight manages to unlock the secrets of space travel by using portals. But such powerful magic has a price as the safeguards used to keep Equestria from powerful cosmic dangers are now being torn away. For the moment the portal was open, a new menace has emerged and havoc soon followed. Twilight and her friends attempt to save the day and stop this threat but it was to no avail. The Elements were scattered, the Mane Six vanished, and the entirety of reality was torn apart in a single moment.
But all was not lost.
Twilight was rescued by a mysterious group that was hiding outside of space and time, a place on the edge of Limbo. They are the ones that deal with the most dangerous, mysterious, and oldest magical objects in existence. And they have a mission for Twilight. A way for her to set things right and to undo the destruction of her timeline and her Equestria. It is, however, a perilous mission. One that will take Twilight to places and dangers once thought of as unknown. Nevertheless, Twilight agrees to help. To do anything to save her friends.
So the unicorn is sent across the universe to another world. It is a place of joyful beauty and darkest nightmares. A place of countless legends It is a place devoid of harmonic magic. A pale blue dot in the universe called Earth.
The mission is simple in concept. Find her friends and get them off of this world. Never lose sight of the mission and nothing should go wrong.
But when Twilight arrives on this Earth, something strange is happening. It seems that this the moment when the collective civilians of Earth known as humans start to make the first contact with another life form. An energy anomy is forming in the ocean and a message of peace is being projected from across the stars. Twilight doesn't buy it. She believes that whoever took her friends is now looking for her on Earth and is putting humanity under the threat from very dangers that destroyed her Equestria.
Her opinion changes however when she caught wind that the arriving force is none rather than Equestria itself!
Or it seems to be Equestria. Twilight is also concluding that this might be the alternate timeline of Equestria. The one in which she actually made a stable portal and made contact with these aliens. But alternate timeline or not, the moment this Equestria arrives a chain reaction of unfortunate incidents creates the perfect situation for one of the worst attributes of nearly all living things. War.
Some malicious force out there is manipulating the two species into fighting. The very thing that took the Elements of Harmony and Twilight's friends.
Hiding amongst the humans as one of them and befriending a couple of them, Twilight must now figure out a way to save her friends, prevent the two worlds from going to war and find out who this third party that is playing both sides against each other is. She must find a way to end this sinister plan. If she fails, it could result in her timeline and her world being permanently lost forever. The mission will be dangerous.
Twilight would have to use all her wits, skills, and even forbidden artifacts of the utmost destructive nature in order to succeed in saving her friends, her species, and even the future of her entire world. This is a quest of tribulation.
The Tribulations of Earth.
