In the time before time, the Great Spirit descended from the heavens, carrying we, the ones called the ponies, to this island paradise. We were separate, and without purpose, so the Great Spirit blessed us with six virtues: Loyalty, Honesty, Kindness, Generosity, Laughter, and Magic. We embraced these gifts and, in gratitude named our island home Equestria, after the Great Spirit Herself.
But our happiness was not to last. Celestia's sister, Luna, was jealous of these honors and betrayed her. She contorted herself, and split herself into two forms: the spirit form Nightmare Moon, and the physical form Big Macuta. Nightmare Moon cast a spell over Celestia, who fell into a deep slumber. While Big Macuta's power dominated and terrorized the land, fields withered away, ancient values were forgotten, sunlight grew cold, and the night lasted forever.
Still, all hope was not lost. Legends told of six mighty heroes, the Eoh, who would arrive to save Celestia. Time would reveal that these were not simply myths - for the Eoh did appear on the shores of the island. They arrived with no memory, no knowledge of one another - but they pledged to defend Equstria and it's ponies against the Darkness.
Rainbow Dash, Eoh of Honesty.
Pinkie Pie, Eoh of Laughter.
FlutterShy, Eoh of Kindness.
Twilight Sparkle, Eoh of Magic.
AppleJack, Eoh of Loyalty.
And Rarity, Eoh of generosity.
Great warriors with great power, drawn from the very elements themselves. Together, they were six heroes with one destiny: to defeat Luna and save Celestia.
This is their story.
