Prologue- The Beginning


The city of Baltimare was one of the largest cities in Equestria and was home to many ponies. All across the city, it was with great sorrow for them to hear that all four princesses had vanished without a trace. The country was left without rulers. In order to prevent Chaos from spreading, the solution was the Order. The Order is a gathering of some of the most powerful mages and magic users in the land. 

The was there when ponies were in need of help, in need of hope and they were there to help us from the ashes of when the fires were put out, but some ponies said that they were the problem, claiming that the Order was false, that it went against everything that the four princesses had established over the years. Thus leading to the first revolution in pony kind where the Order battled against the rebellion forces.

When neither side could win, they split Equestria in half, The rebellion taking the north in the Crystal Empire and the Order taking Canterlot in the south, creating a border between the two new governments.

Some would question the decisions that were made, leading to rebellion that split  Equestria in two. Even though half of the population was left to rot in the north, the Order had flourished in prosperity leading to the construction of towers built to watch over and protect those around them. And after two thousand years the Order became one of the world’s most powerful nation. 

As time went on, the Order had established four classes for magic users who would one day become Guardians for Equestria. Usually, the most who would become a guardian would be twenty out of an entire academy, while the rest would remain and become guards for guardians.

 I was very young when I was taken into the Order and they raised me as one of their own. My name is Watcher, I'm currently eighteen and for years I've wondered if life could be different, a bit more interesting. I wanted something to happen and it turned out I got my wish... the day she broke into my house and changed my life forever.
