During The First Era of Harmony, Equestria is at the peak of its glory under the rule of the royal sisters Celestia and Luna. Canterlot is a centre of harmony, learning and culture, but not all of Equestria shares the same fate.
On the borders dark creatures lurk, remnants of the rule of Discord, behind the borders even mightier foes await their time as evil plots slowly unwind.
At these unsure times a young Earth pony, Ember Coal, is unwillingly dragged from a safe home to the fray of threats that surround Equestria. In his path to find harmony, knowledge and recognition, he travels the land.
This story encompasses the story of Ember Coal and his associates as they travel the land in search of answers, harmony and recognition.
Each chapter is written by me, my friends and hopefully at least one random person found from the internet.
AUTHORS NOTES/CREDITS/SPECIAL THANKS
As this is somewhat a collaboration-fic, I would like to thank my co-authors:
Bee (Chapter 1)
Also a big thank you to my proofreader Crinkles
Last but not least a big hug goes out to the authors of the art: Hanna (hannaosk.deviantart.com) and Elisas (fimfiction.net/user/Elisas)
This fic shows promise.
Occasionally when you've forgotten to add " at the start or at the end of sentences where the characters speak. This should be easily fixable with slightly more proofreading however. Other than that I don't really have anything to add.
Regarding the story itself. There are quite a lot of open questions regarding the backgrounds of both characters. Hopefully you'll dwelve more deeply into each characters' backgrounds as the story progresses.
Lets wait and see how the second chapter turns out.
