Welcome to the Empire of Equestria. The land is in turmoil, from ravaging tribes of minotaur, to the fierce nation of the griffons, there are not many places still safe, and soon there may be none.

The griffons have invaded and stolen a priceless artifact, one that could hold the fate of the world. With it lost, the world will slowly fall into chaos, leaving no peaceful land on which to live. No, not the kind Discord likes. Chaos among our feelings and our relationship with others. The process has already begun, with violent raids and even civil war springing up all over the Empire.

It has fallen to six ponies to save the world. They don't even know each other too well, but they will be forced to work as a team as they overcome the many obstacles that they must face. They will also make new friends, who will help them along their journey.

But in the end, it will be up to the six heroes to retrieve what was lost. Will they succeed, or will chaos ravage the land and even each other, breaking their will to go on?

Alright, let me clear up a few things.
1. This is a steam punk themed story (I think)
2. It is an alternate universe. As such, the characters have been modified slightly to fit their roles they play in this world. It is not set in the future or past of the MLP show. It is a whole new world. Also, the characters really don't have much knowledge of each other, sometimes not even knowing the other existed. And the fillies are all now teenagers, so they aren't quite as big as the others, but bigger than fillies.
3. There are a lot of characters in this story, but the ones that are shown below are simply the more important ones. I mean really. There's Vinyl Scratch, Lyra, Derpy, Doctor Whooves, etc.
