//------------------------------// // Prologue // Story: MLP: The new land // by Derpyfan1 //------------------------------// The mane 6 were sitting at their table, when all their cutie marks were glowing, somewhere a dragon was attacking, this dragon looked different, it was gray, it was big, and it didn't talk in their language. They brought Spike as well, it wasn't any dragon he recognized. They only heard one understandable sentence from the dragon. "I AM ALDUIN!" They attempted to defeat him, but Alduin flew away, they attempted using magic, but it didn't work, now the Mane 6 and Spike went over to an island by ship to fight Alduin, so they sailed back, but then a bad storm hit, and set them off course, the ponies and dragon went to sleep, the ship crashed into an unknown place, The mane 6 had no idea where they were, they ran through a forest and into a cave, they set up camp, and then decide to keep on moving. "Stay alert, girls, we have no idea what we're up against, we aren't in Equestria anymore. The creatures here might be more violent, without mercy, like that dragon" Explained Twilight, they went through the dungeon a little bit, all they found were rats and bats, until a room, they opened it to find an archer. "So those human things Lyra talked about...are real?" Said Applejack "Looks to be." Replied Rainbow Dash, Rarity used her magic to defeat the Archer easily, they went through, and heard the sound of a skeleton "RRRAAAAAGHHH" Screamed the Skeleton "Oh yes, that isn't annoying at all." Said Applejack, as Pinkie was making silly faces to the skeleton, the skeleton was about to slash pinkie, but Twilight moved her out of the way just in time as Applejack kicked its face in, they went down the staircase and through a door, the mazy dungeon was not fun, but they eventually found their way into a room with a rat, a bat, and an imp, Rainbow defeated the 3 of them, and they went out of the dungeon, and made their way to the nearest city, it was named "Daggerfall" they asked a person where they were "You are in the city of Daggerfall of the High Rock province, home of the Bretons, like myself, what are you supposed to be?" Replied the man "We're ponies. From the continent of Equestria. What continent is this?" Said Twilight "Equestria? Oh yeah, I've heard of that, apparently home to the Pony beastfolk. This is Tamriel, home of man, mer, Khajiit and Argonians." Replied the man, he walked off, they went to a store and bought a map of High Rock, according to the map, they were in a dungeon named "Privateers Hold" They were far from Equestria now, and Applejack knew it, as she heard that Tamriel was on the other side of the planet from Equestria.
