Edit: Ok sorry I didn't read the post that you have posted but still it seemed like a less daring escape than I would have hoped for.
This whole thing sounds like a 20+ car pileup waiting to happen put the breaks on now and turn the caution lights on! Everypony thats in the RP meet here and we will discus the course of things and the way they should happen, that is if Snow thinks we should.
I just noticed something if you are a Livingtombstone fan and you heard something it has similarities 1. Quote from the lyrics " I just discovered that the ponies were defeated by something really strong it seemed very weird and wrong it just doesn't belong like it came out of this world." 2. Ponyville was completely destroyed just like where the setting for the song. The only difference is that the ponies were defeated by a nuke.
Agreed. After having an entire army going after you guys I didn't think you'd escape THAT easily, so me and Zephyr just tried to do... Something, since we evaded capture. (We could have found Rashall on the way or something and he could help us.) But then you simply appear out of nowhere, tells us that everyone has escaped the grip of a huge army in a huge fortress and summarizes everything about the Elements of the Ancients in a rather strange way. Maybe we should restart a section over, right after the capture. Maybe Besides me finding Zephyr, we eventually pass through the Shadowed Forest on our way to said fortress and we encounter Rashall there, and while you guys struggle to escape Celestia's brother is coming to speak to you. He interrogates you briefly before whatever plan the three of us do is put to action, and then... It just goes on. It is an RP, after all lol (Edit: Nice reference Edge )
Alright, so it seems there has been a misunderstanding. I never said everypony had escaped, as far as Snow and Dark know, the only other non-captured ponies are Zephyr and Brave. And second, you gotta remember, for us, the Ancient Elements are still a mystery to us, we barely know anything about them, but if you must have me explain them further, I will. This is how the story goes: A long, long time ago, before Celestia and Luna became the rulers of what is now Equestria, the true first born, their brother Tremalion, ruled it after his parents. After Celestia became of age, their mother wanted them to share power, while the father wanted Tremalion to be the sole ruler. This caused a huge civil war in Equestria, pitting all who thought Tremalion should be the sole ruler against those how thought they should share power or even Celestia be the sole ruler. The war ravaged on for many a year until Luna became of ruling age and threw her support behind Celestia and togather they made the what is now the Elements of Harmony, to try and calm Tremalion so they could have a peaceful ruling triad, but once Tremalion heard of the Elements of Harmony, he refused to let them exist without an opposing set, and so he created the Elements of the Ancients, each of which represented a different element of ruling. With the Ancient Elements and their Champions, Tremalion looked set to take over Equestria, but then one of the Champions was killed in battle, robbing the Elements of their full power. From there, one by one, the other Champions fell, leaving only one Champion left, and that Champion is still unknown, but with the Elements of the Ancients defeated for the most part, Celestia and Luna used the Elements of Harmony to cast out Tremalion and his supporters and created a magical barrier around Equestria to keep them out. But now, those barriers that have kept Equestria safe for over a thousand years are falling apart, letting Tremalion's forces to pour back into Equestria. Soon, they will completely fall apart allowing Tremalion himself to enter, and at that point, it will take both sets of Elements to fully defeat him and destroy his armies. And that's our story.
Oh, and there are two major differences in the two sets of elements, the Harmony ones are made using just regualar old magic and are meant to be used as bringers of peace and prosperity (obviously), and the Ancients are made essence magic, which is acually the older of the two, and are used to bring power and serve the wishes of the one who controls them.
Yes, infact I have a list of everypony's element: Divine Rule – (I am making this one a surprise) Strength – Rashall Fire – Firebreeze Light – Snow Mark Darkness – Dark Light Spoken Word – Facade Speed – Zephyr Intelligence – Brave Cape Force – Silver Edge Luck – Ace High
Yeah sorry. Right after Snow posted the list I found in the RP. Can't wait for Divine Right though. I can persuade many people to do my bidding, but no mortal can persuade a Deity! Or someone who is ruling because he/she/it said so.
The Divine Right will be a surprise and a possible serious hindering to us, for it will delay our plans long enough for the last of the barriers to fall apart and Tremalion to enter Equestria. And Brave, I did tell the history behind the elements in Locp, but that was from Celestia's point of view, this one was an unbiased one.
What fun! Oh btw when are we gonna start back up the RP? Curious since I wanna do something pony related. And we are just gonna start back when majority of us were captured right?
Eeyup, and guys, try not to think of Tremalion as evil, he's just really overprotective of his power. and I still need a volunteer to be the one to stay captured. You can have it to where, like let's say that one of us needs to stay behind in order for everypony else to get away, that way you sound a lot more heroic than just not being able to escape in time.
Reminds of a certain Louis XIV...I'm only protective of France! LET'S INVADE EVERYONE!...And I guess Facade can stay behind. Though he would pretty useful in a escape once the fighting starts his voice won't be able to be heard very well. And then no one will know who is under my spell or not! Just a disaster waiting to happen.
Alright, I guess we can start it back up. Here is where we start, it is in the middle of the escape attempt and the guards have just found out about it and we are trying to fight/run our way out, got it?
No, you will be left trying to delay the army long enough for us to make our escape, but you will eventually be recaptured and taken to Tremalion himself, from there, we will have to find and rescue you. And inside Tremalion's castle, that is were the Champion of Divine Right will be revealed.
