Next Gen Equestria AU

516 views

There are 7 immortal rulers of Equestria...
The Princesses of Harmony, Twilight Sparkle, monitors harmony in Equestria and raises the Sun, and Starlight Glimmer, monitors the disharmony in Equestria and raises the moon;
The Crystal Princesses, the Princess of Love, Mi Amore Cadenza aka Cadence, and her daughter Flurry Heart, also known as the Winter Princess or the Princess of Life
The Crystal Duke, Prince Sombra, also known as the Winter Prince or the Prince/Duke of Death;
Discord, the Lord of Chaos;
and Fluttershy, also known as Mother Nature (Discord transformed Fluttershy into a Dragonequus, an immortal chimera, not only because he couldn't bear the thought of her dying, but to also disrupt Harmony (instead of an even number of rulers, it is now odd)).

Twilight Sparkle and Starlight Glimmer opened up a school that was available for every creature in Equestria, Glimmer-Sparkle School of Harmony, or GSS (which was originally titled Sparkle's School of Friendship until Starlight's alicorn transformation).
A similar school was opened in the human dimension, founded by Sunset Shimmer and Sci-Twi, known as Shimmer-Sparkle University, or SSU, which, similar to GSS, teaches its students about the importance of the 6 Elements of Harmony and/or the history of Equestria.
Ironically, the GSS and SSU school mascots are a heraldry style silhouette of (my) Discord (redesign). A little excerpt in a fake journal I wrote recently says "Chaos is what made everypony unique. Discord's powers helped restore Harmony. However, he's still a malicious chimera who's nearly unstoppable. Expelling Discord into Limbo temporarily until Harmony begins to falter was necessary."
Basically they chose Discord as their mascot to show appreciation for his contributions to Harmony.




Interesting, right? :D Some things have noticeably been altered such as Twilight's princess role or her school's name if you couldn't tell.
You may also have noticed "(my) Discord (redesign)." That's right, I'm redesigning all the characters I've listed (except for Sunset and Sci-Twi) :BornAgainBrony: I want Twilight to look more like a Sun princess and Starlight like a Moon princess. Discord and Sombra will look more pleasing to the eye, and Cadence and Flurry will look more like mother and daughter. :catface: Hooray! Let me know what y'all think so far :coco:

That is pretty cool! What happened to Celestia and Luna?

They merely retired. When an alicorn "retires," they lose whatever body part they received during their transformation such as a horn and/or wings and they start to age normally. For example, Celestia would originally be a unicorn. When she retired, she turns back into a unicorn and gets "older" (gets more wrinkles and gets slower, yknow how mortal aging works. She's still over 1,000 years old, but she could've been young in alicorn years).

Spoiler

Alicorn-born ponies are never able to retire because they're immortal* since birth. Which means, unfortunately for Flurry Heart, she will have to rule until possibly billions of years later. 
*By the way, by "immortal" they simply age EXTREMELY slowly. Discord is the definitive meaning of immortal, he is literally undying.
But speaking of Discord, the only way for an alicorn-born pony to no longer be immortal is with his help. However, because his powers are super sketchy, we don't know how long a mortal spell would last.

I never liked the idea of them retiring and growing old. More of ascending into the realm of gods instead, knowing that their time in the mortal world is done.

Well this is only my AU :kindness: Flurry and maybe Sombra may be the only rulers who "ascend into a realm of gods" because they're born immortal (excluding Discord he's undying)

Was Sombra ever a tyrant here?

Yes, he was still the evil King Sombra in this AU. However, he gets reformed by Flurry (somehow xD) that's why they have similar titles like the Winter Prince/Princess, Prince of Death and Princess of Life.
