Everyone in Equestria knows the story of King Sombra. A unicorn whose heart was black as night, who took over the Crystal Empire, before he was ultimately overthrown, turned to shadow, and banished to the ice of the Arctic North. Though not before he was able to curse the Empire, and cause it to vanish for a thousand years. Exactly one thousand years later, the Crystal Empire returned, bringing King Sombra back with it. Though merely a shadow of his former self, Sombra sought to reclaim the Crystal Empire for himself. But thanks to the efforts of a certain purple dragon, and princess of love, he was thwarted and destroyed. However, years later, he was resurrected to join a vile legion of doom. He refused, and set off on his own. This time, however, after his conquest of the Empire was thwarted once again, King Sombra struck the ultimate blow to his enemies.

He destroyed the Tree of Harmony.

But when the ponies who represent the elements realized the magic of friendship was already inside them, they used that power to return Sombra to the Aether from whence he came. That was the final end of The Shadow King in the world of Equestria. But what of King Sombra from another world?

What if King Sombra existed in the world of Equestria Girls as a powerful, and evil monarch who rules his Kingdom with a fist of iron and shadow? How did this come to pass? What made this version of King Sombra what he is today? Join us as we delve into the history of this world's Shadow King, and learn how he came to rise, conquer and reign over his domain.

(NOT A WORLD OF WARCRAFT CROSSOVER)

**Prequel to "The Tragedy of Laurana, and Grogar" and the My Little Pony Season 9 Redux series trilogy**

A topic I honestly feel I may have actually been dumb to neglect, but it IS important. It's part of the lore of the universe of my MLP Trilogy series, the Harmoniaverse. More specifically, behind the existence of the Eldritch Gods, and Devils who existed long before Equestria. 'Existed' being a main term, because Grogar and Laurana are supposedly the last of their kind. As entities that are deeply connected to the elements and aspects they embody, they cannot simply die. And there's a chance both races were reborn, and now exist in seperate planes of reality far away from each other. This is to explain the finer details of these forces of Harmony, and Anarchy.

Listen as I bring forth the history of The Bahamut, and The Djinn.

The Melody of Love, Hate, and Tragedy

When one thinks of Love, and Hate, all anyone can ever think of is of the two being polar opposites. Two opposites at constant war with one another. In the same way as Light, and Darkness, Good, and Evil wage an eternal struggle for dominance in all of existence. And with no room in between to tell the difference between either.

But Love, and Hate are far more intertwined than any can imagine.

For it was the love of two omnipotent entities known as The Baphomet, or Elder Gods, who ironically embodied Light, and Darkness that gave life to the world of Equestria. A love that they had shaped, and formed after fate brought them to a mysterious world where they learned more about their reality than they ever could have imagined. And together, while given sanctuary of this celestial domain that reigns over space, and time, the two seek to strengthen, and grow themselves to better be prepared to face any threat to the Balance of Creation they are sworn to protect.

And through time, effort, and even tribulation they become true Bahamut of Creation, Life and Light, and Destruction, Death and Darkness to maintain the balance of existence. For neither Bahamuts, nor the Aspects they embody can exist without the other. And now, they have the strength to work together, and protect each other as they also protect the universe. Bound by the strongest of loves the two had forged in their time of training, it was believed that nothing could ever break apart the bonds of Harmony that were shared by living embodiments of the central aspects of creation.

But even Love inevitably falls.

And circumstances cause it to decay, and rot until only hate remains.

This is how it all happened. How these universal lovers story not only came to pass: but also shaped the world of Equestria into what it is now. A world born out of love, until the mistakes of mortals incurred the hatred that ended three generations of Equestrian life. And how the Fourth Generation lead to tragedy when the lovers became mortal enemies who war for the fate of this new stage of life.

The Tragedy of how Love dies, Hate begets more hatred in the form of curses and calamity, and ends in the eternal entrapment of Light, and Darkness.

Attend the tale that is The Tragedy of Laurana, and Grogar

**SPOILERS FOR SEASON 9**

**MORE SPECIFICALLY, THIS IS SEASON 9**

(Sequel to "The Price of Freedom Mk. 2")

Based on The Legend of Spyro Trilogy, and The Lord of The Rings (somewhat)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Equestria has now reached its longest period of Harmony in over a thousand years. All thanks to Prince Dusk Shine and his friends, who have proven time and again that together, they are true guardians of their world. However, a shift in the Balance has been sensed, and a time of testing is upon Equestria. Great change is on the horizon, and thus the Sisters of the Sun and Moon have sensed their time has reached its end.

The time has come for a new ruler to lay claim to the throne of Equestria, and none could be considered more fitting than Dusk Shine himself.

All save for the Alicorn prince, who has been having recent doubts on his ability to truly lead. Twice he has allowed himself to be used by nefarious forces, and twice have others needed to save their world in his place. Could this be a sign of the changes to come? That not only are the Princesses passing on their mantle to a new generation.....but the alicorn prince, and his friends are set to be succeeded by a new generation of heroes to wield the Elements of Harmony? Noone knows for certain. But the wheels of fate are turning, and none can escape it.

Especially not now, when evil has begun to stir in the hidden corners of the world. A fallen emperor from ages past who ruled the ancient world through fear, and anarchy has gathered the Dark Forces of Equestria to unite under one banner, and annihilate their shared enemies. But for many, such a thing is not so simple when this conglomerate of villainy consists of tyrants, conquerors, megalomaniacs, and servants of Darkness. Even so, one among their number has grander plans of his own.

And it is how Lord Tirek knows this "Grogar" is not who he seems.

So it is that the dark centaur makes preparations of his own. To set into motion a plan centuries in the making by a force of greater evil, festering in the heart of Equestria. A dark being who existence may spell doom for all of Equus' children. Under the nose of the deceitful ram, and with his powers of Darkness growing, Tirek will set forth to gather all evil to him. And in time, he will summon an army of darkness great enough to overthrow the tyranny of light. And this being who claims to be Grogar will prove to be instrumental in seeing the dark designs of Lord Tirek until the time comes to remove him from the board entirely.

A great Legion of Doom will rise.

War will cover the lands in fear, and terror.

And unlikely allies will emerge to aid Prince Dusk Shine, and his friends as they face the greatest challenge of their life.

In the rising tide of evil, the time has come to prove, once and for all, that Friendship is Magic.

And nothing will ever be the same again.

(Prelude/practice run for the ACTUAL series: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/415905/my-little-ponys-the-count-of-monte-cristo)

13 years ago, Shining Dantes was betrayed by those whom he considered friends. 3 villains, though reformed, became jealous of what he had, and sought to destroy his life. Their plan succeeded, and Shining was framed for treason, and imprisoned for 13 years in the Chateau D'if.

Noone ever imagine he would escape, and find a mighty treasure to aid in his plot for revenge.

But he did, and with the new name "The Count of Monte Cristo", he set forth to expose the traitors, and tear their worlds down as they did to him. By now, he has long since succeeded, with only his closest friend, Sombra Mondego, being the last one on the loose. But just before he can plan out what to do to him, she appears. Cadenza Mercedes, who was once his hope, and light, only to marry the very stallion who betrayed him, has now become an object of resentment - until she reveals how their bond remains strong, even after such a horrible ordeal was forced upon them.

Now, with all that has occurred, Shining finds the anger, hate, and pain slipping away, and feelings he had forgotten ages ago return. For the first time in his life, he feels Love, Hope, and Forgiveness again.

Perhaps these are the signs that he can let go of the pains of the past, and be the man he once used to be again.

The duty of a King is to be there for his subjects. To guide, and rule them with fairness, and compassion. To lead them into a bright, and beautiful future in peace and prosperity. He must care for them as if they were his own, and protect them with his life. Those are the qualities of a pure king. But there are a few exceptions to this principle: and that is King Sombra. The nefarious unicorn who fell to the dark powers, and became an evil despot who conquered the Crystal Empire, and enslaved the ponies who lived there, before his 1000 year imprisonment in the Frozen North. His return 1000 years later may have brought about a second reign of hate and fear, with his slaves trapped in his iron grip for all time. That is, were it not for the efforts of eight ponies, and a small baby dragon who brought back the Crystal Heart, and used the power of Love inside to restore the empire, and vanquish the evil king once, and for all.

But this was not the end of the story itself.

The duties of a prince is to his people. To guide, and rule his subjects with fairness, and compassion. To treat them as his own, and protect them with his own life. And Prince Shining Armor, husband to Princess Cadance, and Former Captain of the Guard, is a pony who would give his life to protect everyone: whether it's his own family, the princesses themselves, AND his newfound subjects. While he still isn't quite sure about his place as a Prince, he is as sure as he can be that his place remains with his beloved wife.

But now that love must be put to the test. Ever since Cadance, and his sister found the secret study of King Sombra, something strange has been happening with Shining Armor. He feels.........unsafe at times. As if something were always following him. And he swears he hears a voice in his head. Worse still are these compulsions which threatens to take him over. What could this all mean? Is Shining Armor perhaps suffering from the strains of the recent events in his life? Or is something else at work here? Something insidious, and dark. Something which seeks to use him in order to see its return to power. The only question remaining is this:

Can Shining Armor stand against this evil? Or will he succumb to the Darkness within>
