Something of great magical power has been found in Equestria. Unfortunately no one knows what it is or why it's here. Celestia trusts this object to a pony she's sure can figure the mystery out, but what happens when things don't go as planned?
6790231 I don't want to give away any too many spoilers, but I will say that the story does take place after Tales from the Borderlands, as well as after the intro/ending of Borderlands: The Pre Sequel ;)
I'm not going to swear to it, but it sounds like the one area in the Dust. What was it called, I can't-GOOSE'S ROOST, that was it! That was the name of the place, I remember because my friend was over visiting when I got to that place and we both got the reference about it!
I wonder what was up with that dream. I don't believe it was just any nightmare. Perhaps a premonition?
Anyway, did the key go with them? If so, Celestia and Luna should have felt the disturbance, no? I do hope you won't just ignore the equestrian side now.
6792514 >Luna feels rather cold, and we don't see any of the awkwardness she displayed in season two.
I find Luna to be a bit of a tough character for me to write. I admit, I'm still trying to a grasp on her character. It's hard to write for someone who gets so little screen time. Note that I haven't seen much of season 5, so I don't know how much characterization the writers have given her. That's also why I set the story after Season 4.
>The way you portrayed its magic tasting was very appropriate for Borderlands, but isn't its magic alien? So would it taste of the Borderlands we know? Just a thought.
I'll admit, that's a bit of an oversight on my part. Perhaps I'm trying so hard to allude to Borderlands that I'm beginning to ignore some of the lore of Borderlands itself. Ah well, it's a small detail. I won't bother with changing it since it's not terribly important.
As for 6792588 You'll just have to wait and find out ;)

Fair enough. I'm almost nitpicking anyway, because I feel I need to give constructive criticism, but it's done well enough that there's not a lot to improve, so I have to find smaller details? In part, anyway.
You'll just have to wait and find out ;)
Looking forward to it.
Ooh, possible theory, perhaps its time on Borderlands, being handled by those characters, and spending time buried in rubble allowed some of that taste seep into its magic? Just a thought.
bonus points if you knew where Rainbow Dash was during the dream sequence! Unless I'm terrible at describing visual landmarks and stuff.
The vault of the Warrior. Final story mission. Where you kill Handsome Jack and The Warrior. Full of rising lava and volcanic Crystalisk. Best farming location in the original game.
And your artifact is the Vault Key. Charges naturally once every two hundred years.

Right on the money :)
Ooh, so this is going to be in Borderlands, not Equestria. Poor ponies. The trauma is real. I mean, honestly, some of those creatures...

well here's hoping they don't run into krieg or sally first, maya seems the most level headed, I wouldn't trust Lilith (she's been losing it lately)
Ellie's garage in The Dust.
