Welcome one and all to a new story. You probably have no idea who i am, so i will introduce myself. My name is SilverArrow, and i am a creative writer. I was recently introduced to MLP: FiM and instantly loved. Even inspired me to write a story about it. I will now introduce the aformentioned story. 'When Equestria was new, and young, several different races of ponies roamed the land peacefully. The earth ponies, the likes of which dashed across the fields and plains, strong and faithful. The unicorns, the likes of which read books and studied ancient spells and magic to weild for assistance in times of difficulty, were smart and trustworthy. And finally, the pegasus, the likes of which shot through the air at high speeds, and could control the weather with their mighty wings. The pegasus were agile and quick, and could always be counted on to be there for others in need. These were the three races of ponies, who lived in peace and harmony in Equestria's early years. They still preside over the lands today, however... There was one moment in time, where it seemed they could never live together again. A fourth race, of dark-coloured ponies rose from the shadows. They had batlike wings, and long curved unicorn horns. They were a deadly combination of both unicorn and pegasus! Smart and quick, but they used their powers for very different reasons. While the peaceful folk of Equestria used their abilities to simplify daily life, this fourth race took pleasure in ponies missury and pain. They weilded a completely different kind of magic. Magic that allowed them to alter and transform nature. They marched through Equestria, wreaking havoc as they went. Lush fields of flowers and grass turned into wastelands of torment and suffering. Forrests of green full of happy wildlife were changed into horrid nightmares. They were completely unstobable. They used their surroundings to fend off anypony who came near to stop them. Vines would wrap and trap those who dared attack them, people trembled with fear at their name! They were called, The Xenrodan's. No one dared to stand up to them, not even the most powerful of any of the other three races could come close to defeating them. Until one day, an outsider arrived in Equestria. Everyone believed him to be of the pegasus, but his wings were far too large and strong for a pegasus. He seemed to posses the abilities of all three other races together, like the Xenrodan's. Flight, magic and strength. Along with these came swiftness, wisdom and motivation. This outsider had the one ability the Xenrodan's didnt have. Emotion. While they brought destruction with them with no care, this outsider used his imense power to drive back the forces with light. In the end, he confronted the very person who started it all, a black pony name Wind. They fought for days, weeks even. Wind refused to listen to the outsiders wisdom and reasoning and was blinded by his ambitions and power. In the end, these atributes were his downfall, and he was banish beneath the very mountain he and the rest of his shadowy race came from. The outsider sealed the entrance to the mount with an arrow. The arrow was crafted from the finest silver. The arrow was so sharp, they say it could slice clean through six trees without slowing down. The outsider fired ther arrow deep into the mountain's base, and the entrance was sealed up, never to be opened again. The outsider then guided everyone to a time of prosperity. The outsider became known as Silver, becuase of the arrow he drove into the mountain. He was the first ruler of Equestria, and was remember for thousands of years for his wisdom and bravery. He established three nations, as a reminder to all those who preside over Equestria. The land nation of Flaira, the water nation of Quentia, and the sky nation of Leyrina. All ponies everywhere were greatly pleased by this and each pony made their choice over where they wanted to live. On the ground, in the sea, or above the clouds. However, there was one place that was not transformed into a nation, and that was the mountains. The same mountains that the Xenodan's were sealed beneath. To this day no one has ever dared to cross those mountains. After a long rule, Silver, ruler of Equestria and honored hero of the realms, vanished from his palace in Leyrina. No one ever knew his original name, or anything about his past, but he did leave behind one thing. A son. A successor, though far to young, was born shortly after his vanishing. Although everyone mourned the loss of their ruler, they preserved his story and remembered him for hundreds of thousands of years later. But, the course of time took its toll. Slowly, but ever surely, history turned into tale, tale turned into myth, and myth turned into legend. The story of the outsider called Silver was almost completely forgoten, except by those who descended from him directly. No one knew who these ponies were, or how many of them existed, but those who believed in the legend of Silver, awaited for one to reveal themselves. For there was one thing they feared. Some day, they knew, the Xenadon's would return, and they would need a hero. Some one with the same talents and abilities passed down through the ancient bloodline, to awaken.' (Authors comment) Well then here we go. There are no illustrations to accompony this introduction. If some one would like to illustrate it that would be amazing, but i doubt that would happen. THIS IS NOT CANNON. Although containing references to the original this is a different Equestria! Do not scream at me for creating the realms and any other new feature to the MLP universe. This is simply a fantasy twist to it. OH AND I FORGOT TO MENTION. I CAN'T DRAW PONIES. SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH GENERALZOI'S PONY CREATOR. WITHOUT WHICH THIS WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE.

Before i begin allow me to introduce myself. My name is SilverArrow and i am here to mainly host my fan comic of MLP: FiM. However before i post said comic i would like an importain question answered. What sub-topic do i host it in? I cant seem to find a suitable one and i was wondering for some advice? Now i can give everyone a quick bio. I am generally of calm nature but can be a lot of fun to be around if im feeling a little hyper or excited. (Dont worry i never reach pinkie pie level.) Although i enjoy having fun i am very serious when necessary and quite emotional. i write music, do some drawing and acting, and find writing stories as a fun passtime. (Some examples of this can be found on the MSPA forums.) I am glad to be here and cant wait to get involved with the community!
