Har... harvest them?! Sounds scary.

Organ harvesting is a gameplay mechanic in Rimworld that lets you do character transplants and have your characters make extra silver for trade.

A pony flesh cult has stolen an exploration transport spacecraft. Arriving to the protogen's  original planet. They landed there in an alien forest where they started gathering resources and traded with friendly locals. While defending against protogens and their mechanoids, along with an unknown force of tentacle people. On top of needing to fight, capture and study the mechanical monsters created by the planet's machine god of sorts.

To be better at reaching their goals, they bioengineered themselfs into false alicorns with uncontrolable tentacles. Eventualy one of the unicorn cultists named Manipulative Shimmer was eventualy able to form an intimate connection with the planet's machine god, present on the planet. Giving them lot of power at the cost of being possessed by it. After that, they upgraded their spacecraft somewhat, adding plasma and railgun Weapons.

However then came a huge attack, ironicaly from the very flesh monsters they were summoning. Causing them to launch the ship to orbit earlier then expected. In the planet's orbit they searched for asteroids to mine and space satelites to deconstruct. A hostile spaceship contected them once, the flesh cult's human crew member managed to successfuly parley.

They even managed to sneak a crew into a unsuspecting spaceship and seduce it's captain. Making a deal where the captain transfered ownership of their warship to the pony cult. Alowing them to integrate it into the cultist's bigger ship.

However the victory was short lived, since then a space cruiser showed up and started destroying the pony spacecraft. In desperation they grabbed their weapons and used their escape pods. Landing in an ocular forest, crashing into a small mountain. Next to which was an archotech structure for study. They were later contacted by friendly locals, who offered to sell them two halfs of a map that would lead to more structures like the ones they landed next to. They would travel to a desert for study of more archotech structures. The lack of food and water in the desert platau seemed like a big issue at first but was solved by finding two patches of arable soil and a small fresh water source near the rocky surface the archotech structures were on.

After days of studying the archotech structures of the protogen planet's machine god. They finaly found their way to the rumored center of it all. The archotech nexus core, the place defended by robots, residence of a powerful machine conciousness. Signs of large battles were present on the way there, with husks of many military and civilians vehicles and buildings litering the way.

The arrival to the archotech nexus felt almost... underwelming. Manipulative Shimmer with his other ponies were expecting more of robot presence defending the powerful machine conciousness. After what they have been through, losing multiple legs on their adventure. None the less after defeating the robotic defences, they invoked the archotech power... 

It is difficult to say what happened next but when an anstronaut crew from Anocratic empire decided where ordered to do system surveys there much later, this is what they saw... the planets in the stars system were now alive and gootraxian.

The chaothrumbo is a human transformed into a monster 8 times the size of the average pony. Equiped with a big legendary anti-material sniper rifle battle saddle. Oversized horns and six small eyes on his head. The transformed human is a formidable opponent for those seeking to harm ponies. He lives in the main base on a yet to be explored planet. The main base in question is called New Mojave capital. Was located in a idylic meadow. 

The reason why the base was there of all places on this unexplored planet wasn’t neccesarily because it was the most habitable biome but because thats where the pony spacecraft that discovered the planet, crashed.

Somepony messed up the timeline again and it wasn’t Starlight Glimmer this time.

If you hed to explore one of these four portals. Which one of them seems the most inviting?

[Interstellar Sketch 2,421]

Oof, none of them look too promising but..maybe the one to the far right? Otherwise, I'd stay in the white void.

Humans have send a survey spaceship to New Mojave on the day of it’s unification. Resulting in the crew being transfured into carnelines. Emperor Bigpip later organized a mission to send a pony and gootraxian crew, using the commandeered spaceship to gradualy send expeditions to the human planet. Which was for the time being refered to as ‘Super Earth’
One gootraxian send there was a married kaiju from the New Mojave capital settlement. Who would later be send to successfuly cleanse the world of two biome sized parasitic growths on Super Earth at the demand of a human city state. Gaining right for ponies and gootraxians to own land and trade. The kaiju wasn’t alone, he hed help from a herm bat-pony, he did take all the credit though. The two of them wore experimental exoskeleton armors that gave them more strenght, however these exact armors would never be produced again.

Bat-pony asks a unsealed god for their whisdom. It goes as well as you would expect…
