//------------------------------// // Prologue // Story: Spiders and Magic: The Harmony Avengers // by andrew7 //------------------------------// “Three thousand years ago, before Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, a two royal sisters of Equestria, during so called pre-classical era of Equestrian history, at times of a legendary great and powerful unicorn sorcerer Star Swirl the Bearded, the Equestria or so called the Ponyland in that time, there was a longstanding period of harmony, peace and welfare among all ponies and other creatures.” “However.......those moments were not supposed to last for ever. For the ancient forces of evil, old as time itself, hidden from the outside world had been dormant for eons. Than unfortunatelly being awakened, those forces emerged from the depths of the earth to plague the Ponyland in its dark and malicious grasp.” “Therefore.....there were three a very malevolent and evil elemental lords, a race of incredibly powerful beings, each of them possessing with their own unique abilities, representing and controling elements and ruling their very own domain, so called the Titans”. “Lavan, a cruel and powerhungry fire demon, once ruling a land of volcanos and magma. Squirk, a horrible sea creature, ruling seas, two oceans of Ponyland and everything aquatic. And Arabus, a malicious cloud specter and an absolute ruler of the skies, air and storms.” “Each of these so called elemental lords posed a very special and incredibly powerful gemstones, each representing their own power and might over the three elements: Fire, Water and Air. Than......a longstanding, so called Elemental War happened, taking for over hundreds of years between Lavan, Squirk and Arabus. Three sides fighting and struggling for an absolute power, dominance and rule over the entire life on Ponyland.” “However, in that time, there was also a powerful yet dark empire known as a Tambelon, ruled by an evil demonic ram warlord known as Grogar the Necromancer. This malevolent, cruel and ruthless tyrant had a very different intentions on his own aside from the Elemental War and the Titans desire. In secrecy, via a powerful mystical bell collar, which endowed him with a vast magical abilities, beyond of any unicorn pony and evenly matching a magic of an alicorns, he created his very own special gemstone, in order to control other three elemental stones: The Gemstone of Darkness. Into that gemstone, he put all of his cruelty, malevolence and his will to rule the entire Ponyland and everything alive by himself. One gemstone rules them all.” “However.....according to an ancient prophecy, the Ponyland was supposed to be saved by a group of mighty and great heroes. And so it happened, that a group of mysterious yet valiant heroes with amazing powers appeared in Ponyland and engaged into battle with evil.” “With their combined might, the heroes battled together against that evil and darkness of malevolent evil lords, Grogar the Necromancer himself, the Titans, Lavan, Squirk and Arabus and other terrible menaces and dangers there were unleashed, threatening the ponies, the other creatures and the entire world.” “In order to defeat that evil, each of the heroes must had first obtain seven legendary and powerful mystical relics of great power. By fulfilling their mission, they underwent serious danger when they faced Titans malicious and dangerous minions. However, the brave heroes eventually prevailed.” “Eventually, after they dealt and defeated all the mighty Titans, the heroes faced the most powerful, malevolent and the worst of all evil lords: Grogar the Necromancer himself in his own domain, the Tambelon the dark empire, in one last final battle for Ponyland.” “Later, together, with all their combined might, they eventually defeated the demonic ram as well and they reached a great victory. By that, Grogar was banished into dark alternate dimension known as the Shadow World, Tambelon sung into ground, disappearing out of the face of the Ponyland and the other beaten Titans Lavan, Squirk and Arabus exhausted from their long time struggle and after a great Elemental War being finally over felt into a deep dormant slumber, lost in depths of time hidden away from the outside world. And the powerful Elemental Gemstones, including Gemstone of Darkness were lost, scattered throughout the Ponyland and never beening heard about or seen again.” “The Ponyland was saved, freed from evil and darkness. The harmony was restored and once again a great era of peace and hope prevailed among ponies and the other creatures for the next several hundreds of years.” “And what about the chivalrous and noble heroes? Unfortunately, much for everyone dismay and before they could obtain any gratitude, blessing and recognition for their deeds, just like they appeared, they also disappeared from the face of the Ponyland and they had never been heard about or seen ever again.” “However, the forces of evil are reckless. And just like forces of good, which both existed long ago, before time itself and leading an eternal everlasting battle, they can never be truly destroyed.” “Despite being hidden from world and dormant for ages, forces evil may awaken any time without warning, spread havoc across the land and once again throw the world into yet another darkness.” “However, Star Swirl the Bearded had a vision, into a distant future and foretold that just like before, by the time, when force of evil eventually awakes and strikes once again, the light of hope will flash and a new heroes will come, possessing a new and even greater powers and abilities than ever and that Equestria had ever seen before.” “These heroes would need all their power, all their skills and all their wisdom to combat even more dangerous evil threats in order to protect the world, maintain harmony, peace hope and save the day.” “But that is already a different story…………”
