"Wahoo! My prayers have been answered!"

Rainbow Dash always prayed whenever she could, but hardly considered herself a user of passionate prayer. The only thing Dash ever showed humility in was her Faith. However, being trapped in Ghastly Gorge during her own pet race put her in a really dark place. Filled with fear and trembling, Dash knew she had to reach deep within her and call out to her Heavenly Father in earnest prayer. And to her amazement, God sent a miracle.
Contains Christian themes.

(This is a fic based off of the game, Warframe. I highly recommend and accept critiques, as this is my first crossover. Said crossover will contain ONE main character from the game, and all will be told in third person. I will be adding in some elements or taking away some that were in the game. Put the OC and Other tags because I'm using my preferable load out for the main character. And yes, the ponies are anthros. Enjoy, and don't forget to rate!)

Tenno. Warriors from old, resurrected with new missions, new purpose. These Tenno pilot Warframes, advanced suits with extraordinary abilities. But what happens, when an Orokin artifact sends one of these Tenno, to a world he nor any other Tenno has ever discovered? Time to find out...

Searching for any records King Sombra may have left behind, Twilight learned of the shadowy king's tragic past. However, she also discovered his horn, in which his mind and remaining power were contained.

SPOILER!: This contains lore and what the Warframes really are. If you haven't played the Second Dream quest and don't want to be spoilt, do not read until you complete it.

My name is Karn, it's been over one-thousand years since I became a Tenno.

I've faced all sorts of horrors and challenges.
The grineer, a race of clones, seeking out others to stabilize their own DNA and hating anything or anyone not like them.
The corpus, a conglomeration of commercial and industrial interests, they acquire Orokin technologies and warframes to trade and sell using any means necessary.
The Infested, an ancient plague created by the Orokin to combat the 'Sentients' but has spread throughout the system.

Me and the new Tenno Greavus who uses the new Nekros warframe were sent to assassinate a grineer general, but Greavus struck a deal with the grineer and left me within the ship while the grineer tried to take my warframe for experimenting. Long story short, they failed.

I barely managed to escape to the void in an attempt to take down Greavus, but my Orbiter and Liset are damaged during flight.

My Orbiter exits the void right above a bright planet. With its engines down, the ship crashes right into a city on a mountain during an invasion.

I arm myself and leave the Orbiter, but for the first time in centuries, I'm not prepared for what greeted me... Small colourful equines.
