Twilight Sparkle has had a most extraordinary life.

She can lay claim to many events that not just anypony could have performed in their life.

But through it all, she never forgot one thing.

Who she really was.

And who she mattered to.

Inspired by this song.

The seas of Equestria are largely undiscovered, ponies have never felt the need to explore them.

But if a pony where to go down to that deep dark pit of blackness down there, what would he discover, and would he live to tell the tale.

But what if the creatures down there, found us first.

[Current characters will be OC for the time being, more knowable characters will enter the story at later points]

Out in the Equestrian wasteland, it is very rare that you will come across a pony who isn't a bandit, slaver, or generally one that won't kill you on the spot.

But when you do find somepony that is good, you make sure you stick with them.

Even if they do have some evil, hidden away, you stick with them.

Because in the end, all we have left, is each other.

Important Note: I realise that most FOE stories have chapters that range from 4000+ words. I will most likely doing less than that (around the 2000-3000 mark) mainly because I cannot force myself to keep going on a chapter of that length. So if you are expecting long chapters, I do sincerely apologise.

Twilight is an alicorn, and thus is immortal, her friends, however, are not immortal, and there come the fateful days, where she must say goodbye to each of them.

Songs I listen to whilst writing this story

Fly - Ludovico Einaudi

Half-Life 2 - Triage at Dawn

Celestia has been the ruler of Equestria for thousands of years, but, like her ancestors, she too realises that she cannot allow herself to live for all eternity, and she must pass her leadership down to the alicorn she sees as fit to rule Equestria.
