Prologue

Long ago in ancient times, the universe brought forth six, immensely powerful gems. Whoever managed to unite these mighty gems will be endowed with unimaginable power. The warring ponies of the time vied for the gems and an era of endless wars and fighting until finally their avarice fueled battles almost leveled the planet and nearly destroyed it. The ancient ponies, knowing that their unnecessary fighting nearly destroyed them all, were able to put aside their differences in through the centuries were able to rebuild the world that today is known as Equion and peace reigned on. Among the fighting, the six gems were scattered to the corners of the world and faded into mere legends in hopes to be lost forever. Yet there now there stands one who sought to find these gems and reawaken their power by means to conquer all the world. Could there really be anypony foolish enough to gather these accursed gems? Could there really be anypony foolish enough to repeat the mistake that nearly destroyed the world so many years ago?
