After years of shame and ridicule, archaeologist and explorer Lyra Heartstrings stumbles across a discovery that validates all her theories and ideas in one fell swoop. Along with her best friend, Bon Bon, and her old classmate Cadance, they find themselves faced with a mystery and marvel that may change everything.
Following the next greatest lead found in the database of an ancient race, another international team is formed. Led by Doctors Carter and Jackson, they strike out to explore another network of Stargates discovered in a galaxy on the edge of the local cluster. In the process, their findings will cause them to question much of what they thought they knew.
The adventures continue and unlikely allies will face dangers new and old as the Legacy of the Ancients continue to unravel in the latest chapter of the universe.

Now with a Russian reading by SviMik
Ooooo; Stargate,
Sweet, one of my favorite named members on the site, plus it's a stargate fic? Sign me up!
*sets up a chair and prepares for the explosion*
I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this.
Aha, so you're the one posting this rather than Shag. Makes sense enough, what with his computer issues.
OH YEAH! I am SO following this one
And why can't I thumbs up this story?
Pretty sure Blueblood only rates a "your Highness" at best.
This is great so far, definitely following.

New fimfic policy. Can't see the thumbs up or thumbs down until the story has gotten 15 different thumbs up's or thumbs down. They said it was so that new stories wouldn't get tanked by having only two scores that made it predominately 'bad' from the start or something.
6254484 True seen more than a couple of those and not taking about Displacd stories either
You know the SG team is going to make THE request soon enough.
Every Stargate fic I've found on this site over the years were far from good. A few of the ideas in them were, but overall the stories stank. I doubt I've found all of them, and this one is new, so let's see if it's any better.
There's nothing like a best friend, is there?
It's really a pity that Pegasus is already used in the Stargate canon, because if any galaxy is the right place for a planet full of magical horses, that's the one.
You have my attention. Definitely want to see where this goes.
have not read it yet, but i can already tell i'm going to love this story :)
it combines my two favorite things, MLP and Stargate!

Indeed. Traditionally 'Your Highness' is Princes and Princesses, with 'Your Majesty' reserved for Kings and Queens. Given that the reigning diarchs are each titled 'Princess' it might be more correct to refer to him as 'Your Grace'. That is typically the address for Dukes and Duchesses and thus a step down from 'Your Highness'.
Anyway, definitely tracked. I am coming into this with little Stargate knowledge, but thus far I'm following long well enough.
HELL YES! This concept is great, I'm working through SG-1 currently. So anything that scratches this particular itch is wonderful.
Edit: Great writing, and nice call back to the original movie.
Amazed no one commented on this.
The opening bit? With Lyra and Blueblood?
I see what you did there.
I approve.
~Skeeter The Lurker
Oh boy a Stargate fic! It's surprises me how few of these there are. Like with KSP fics.
Added to Read Later :)
Why do I feel becoming an alicorn is like ascending? So following this story!
Good so far. You've got the SG-1 voices and humor down, and feels nice and authentic.
Really hoping this one doesn't peter out like the other good Stargate stories did. Seriously, look at this face! -->
<-- Can you say no to this face?!
This is gonna be one of those fics where everything is a reference, isn't it?
This is great though; I'm already more interested in what's going to happen than I ever was trying to watch Stargate: Universe. Now, if they had done this instead...
Instant fave plus upvote.
This is gonna be good.
*sits and waits for more* "This is gonna be good!!" lets hope the the ponies did a little redecorating the Exterior of the City-ship, cause the ancients aren't one for namby pamby architecture.
6254476 6255366 Whoopsie, I'll get to fixing that.
6255412 I'll warn you, there may be a few spoilers. Not big ones, since we aren't going around waving a 'This is exactly what happens!' banner, but between Shagohad, Lithl and I, we've got knowledge on everything from the movies, the series and the books, and we are pooling it.
6255634 I don't know about Shag, but I was worried we'd mess up the characters. Nice to know we didn't.
Watched and favorited.
I have High hopes for this story!
The world needs more Stargate crossovers. Especially ones that are this good.
This is a much better hook than the few other Stargate crossover fics I've read. Distant galaxy and external SG network instead having Equestria be just another planet in the Milky Way where the Goa'uld show up 4 chapters in. Really looking forward to where you take this.
This is very promising. Can't wait for more^^
6255709 funny thing, I kinda did think of the City-Ship when I first saw the Empire's Castle Spire back at the start of Season 3. but I don't think that it is the City-Ship. I bet that the City-Ship inspired the castle's design and the real thing is in the mountains near the Crystal Empire. after all, isn't the legend of Shangri-La about a place hidden in an Eden of sorts in the cold on the mountains?
Doctor who sure, star trek make sense, stargate interesting. Now all we need is a lion king crossover and my collection would be complete.
THIS IS MANITORY:
Your welcome
Hmmm, this one has promise. Haven't seen a decent Stargate crossover since 2012.
Need more clear-cut scene breaks, though. And a few details are rushed. For instance, they only send the drone though the gate AFTER they have the whole team ready to go. For a trip like this, they'd send the probe through first then assemble the team once they know they can actually go through, otherwise they risk wasting a whole lot of time and resources on a mission that can't even be started.
Anyway, Lyra says, "We come in peace?" and they all get shot cuz the SG-1 team remembers that line from "Mars Attacks".
I missed these Stargate stories, and this one looks like it's shaping up to be a good one! Great setup and character development.

I'll respond with this:
6256339
A challenger approaches
How about we replace it with the Atlantis theme since they are in a City Ship
6256352 I'm going to try and get Shangri-la its own theme.
6256352
You know the series better than I am! I am an SG-1 fidèle here! (Fidèle means faithful to the original series)
6256373
It had potential
I WIN
And your right I have seen all of Stargate and it's spinoff shows. I just wished they handled Stargate universe better.
6256367
That would be cool to see, But that is not up to me.
Great opening chapter :)
6256339
That's bucking awesome!!!!!
To the author: I like where this is going so-far, but Stargate is pretty much my favorite series of ALL TIME so you've got some pretty big shoes to fill here.... hope you're up to the challenge.
Looks like I'm not the only one rewatching Stargate: SG-1, eh. I'm already on Season 9 again, and after S10 and the two movies, I'm moving onto Atlantis.
6256393 They cancelled Universe just when it was getting good, past that awkward space soap opera thing season one had going for it.
6255729
Yeah, I don't know that much of Stargate, but I have a general idea how things work. I'm mostly here for grammar/punctuation editing and the like. That, and I like (and more recently, edit) most of the stuff that Shag writes.
YYYYEEEESSSS!!!! This is awesome, and so reminiscent os Atlantis! Please tell me you'll have a character as awesome as Col. Shepard, or even better, have him join the Shangri-La Expedition!
6256455 I was so pissed that they cancled SGU...
Holy crap, featured. GJ guys.
6255366 Personally, I think "Oh, it's you," (in the most disgusted tone possible) is the proper form of address for Blueblood, but I don't make the rules.
6256352 oh sweet Celestia... How come I never saw that video before??

A bit rushed, I think. I would have prefered to delay the meeting for a few chapters.
