Before the gloam, 'neath the starlit dome, A mare stands still before our darkened home. With memories deep, in her eyes they sleep, She calls them forth, to distract her weep. [hr] When chaos reigned, and shadows grew, The world was amiss, and the sun was too. From a night, a spark did gleam, Yet some days a furnace, a nightmare of a dream. But Age of Chaos was at an end, There was no more force for day to mend. The sun stayed buried behind the hills, A growing threat to all our future meals. Order was needed to offset age’s loss, And magic too that is reality’s boss. In one pony race, all hopes were placed, Unicorns would reign or all life would be erased. From distant lands, top ones set far, Guided by a hopeful star. With different spells and varied lore, They met upon a mystic shore. The best among them, proud and true, Each with a gift, a power new. From mountains high and forests deep, From deserts vast where shadows creep. At first, they clashed, their magic wild, Each spell unique, each heart beguiled. But through the night, they learned to see, They shared a goal, a unity. With whispered words and gentle grace, They found a common, sacred space. Combining strengths, their powers grew, A tapestry of magic, woven true. Starswirl the Bearded wrote it all down, In case they failed, not all hope would drown. Young Unicorns could take their place, Forcing their magic in a more orderly pace. A great teacher he proved, for old and anew, Unseen magic was spun among the patterns he drew. The wisests of all grew stronger yet, Upgrading their knowledge they made the bet. They forged a bond, both strong and bright, A beacon in the darkest night. With hearts aligned and spirits high, They vowed to lift the morning sky. The Unicorns, with magic bright, Gathered 'neath the moon’s soft light. From every corner, they did come, To weave a spell, to raise the sun. With horns aglow, and hearts as one, They forged a path, long night undone. Through mist and shadow, their power soared, Till dawn’s first light, the world restored.
