Even if it has been 50,000 years since the trilogy took place, Ponykind has nothing to fear from the Reapers. The Reapers don't go for pre-space flight civilizations. You don't imply any sort of advanced technolgy, so this story seems pointless.

Still, my interest was piqued and you haven't lost it yet.

2834467 Who says they need to go far?:trollestia:

2834470I'm not sure I understand your question.

2834486 Just wait for the updates.

2834491Okay, let me track this. You have any sort of update schedule?

2834493 New update tomorrow and then every two or three days.

2834467 ponies offer something new in the form of magic so there is still the possibility they'd harvest the ponies since they represent a viable threat.

2834586 Probably, except the Reapera care only for the balance between organics and synthetics. The species found to be capable of creating a synthetic race capable of destroying all organic life indiscriminately are harvested and all other races and creatures are left alone. The Reapers probably wouldn't change that when ponies don't stand a chance against the supeior, arrogant Reapers. I wonder which ending this is based after.

Everything I type assumes the Council races were exterminated, although it is possible Equestria has an old Reaper Indoc Artifact. After all, Celestia seem to agree with Luna as the humming device resonated oddly at first. Both of them had a sense of paranoia around it. Eventually Celestia, who was particularly insistent about trying to figure out how to learn from it and how to use it, convinced.Luna to have Twilight study it, despite apparent dangers. Twilight's vision indicates a Prothean Beacon though.

Nopenopenope. Don't do it girl. Just wait 24 more hours. You will be asleep most of the time anyways.

How Luna spoke there. It has raised a multitude of questions. Such as do the ponies regard the ones before them (I.E. the Asari) as gods, or did they adopt the Asari religion. And if it's either of those; is it everypony or just the ancients ( Celestia, Luna, and maybe Discord)?

This is a great chapter, you really know how to build up suspense.

Wasn't this story on fanfiction.net?

2865373 Yep, me and my friend wrote that story and I completely forgot about it till now. Decided to post it on the site. The onl thing I wanted to change was the title though because it was not very sufficient to the story.

it comes to my mind that ponies would be able to constuct the crucable very fast if they tried too.

But... Sovereign was killed. How can he be alive now?? It seems the plot is thickening.

I see the Team Four Star reference you put in there you sly dog, you. Good work on this chapter man, I am really liking how this story is developing.

Paragon Twilight

and so twilight takes the mantle shepard passed down, and AJ takes the mantle of the council? cause seriously she is acting like them right now...

question how exactly can celestia and twilight be exposed to reaper tech without indoctrination?

2927443 Who said that someone wasn't?:trollestia:

2928523 i'm geussing celestia then... unless your attempting to copy the indoctrination theroy which i've found doesn't pan out when you consider the geth in general, leviathon, or javik.

side note, is it possible discord may be able to reverse indoctrination?

2929920 Think of the person you think is indoctrinated, and then you will be wrong.

2930073 that immediatly disqualifys twilight, celestia, or discord. that leaves luna or AJ

2930160 Keep guessing, you'll find out in the end.

wow, they defeated ONE reaper?

now, there will only be like, what, TEN THousand and more??:facehoof:

:facehoof: too early to celebrate, this is only act one, there is still the harbinger.

ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL!!!

So this is the outcome of when they fail ME1's Battle of the Citadel and one more thing....I thought reapers targeted civilizations with advanced technology....good writing but seems pointless because the Pony race hasn't got advanced tech

3003332 They have the magic, they can rebuild, make themselves faster, stronger, smarter.

3003332 normaly but you have to consider the reapers considered shepard a threat for being alerted to there coming only a couple years ahead of time. the ponies at this rate wouldn't be on the list for another 10,000 years
and now there know the reapers are coming. they could spend that time preparing, and thats a long time to prepare. they have gods, they have magic, what is they get technology?

3003332
Magic could be used to spur evolution along a path that would challenge and potentially defeat the reapers. My guess is they're trying to stop that from happening while harvesting the advanced civilizations in the galaxy during the Equestrian Cycle.

3003825 Still good story though...that's why I'm still reading it :D

There is mach to do and little time and materials to work with I'd say magic enhancement, fevers engineering sovereign corps and curing or at lest isolating spike from reaper control. Given that heavy use of magic enhanced controlled evolution and weaponry to fight them. Maybe even turning to tarturs and dark magic.

2834923 No, the artifact Twilight was studying... Wouldn't they think they made it?

3003751 Isn't that the tag line for 6 Million dollar man?

"Lulu. Please understand that whatever happens... I love you."

"We'll bang, okay?"

This entire chapter has autocowrecks all over it.
