A soldier burst into Silver Crescent's room. "Sir! We have encountered an unknown species near Everfree Village!" "We encounter new species quite often. Why are you disturbing my meditation with this?" "Sir... they appear to be... sapient." Silver whistled for Holly, and headed down to meet the new arrivals. "Greetings. I am Silver Crescent, leader of the Lunar Pegasi. Why have you come here?"
Valcian removed his helmet, smiling down towards the pegasus before him and his companion... wooden wolf creature. "I am Valcian Hadron. I am the leader of the sun civilization, up in the mountains." He gently pointed to the mountains, easily visible in the distance. "My scouts found you, and we came to investigate. In the case of peace, may we discuss this in a more private location. You may have guards of course, should you not trust me."
With their technological and population states growing rapidly (in Ryborian terms), the Ryborians under Venquis grew enormously with a huge town being settled. With the Ryborians using the plentiful forest wood to start beginning their infrastructure, it would only be a matter of time until they start advancing. Ardelan began to grow very quickly. With a surge of food, water the nearby coastline located near the town, they started to give the population with advancements of technology and attempting to ‘cure’ the genetic disease that restricted their birth numbers. At the moment, they were far from a cure, possibly having to wait thousands of years to even begin. Once they had this cured, they would be strong enough to defend their land properly without having to worry about birth numbers. Having the birth rate of a human, while retaining their lifespan and superhuman abilities. While the civilian population enjoyed their lives, approximately 40% of the entire population were training in the military. The town at its current state was formed like a fortress, with the main building being constructed with wood and stone. Venquis thought about sending diplomats to create alliances. While he would not personally be one of those diplomats due to having to oversee his new kingdom, he hopefully liked his chances. At the end of the day, Ardelan messengers were sent to the northeast across the mountains to find new allies. A small group of seven carrying Spell-Swords and wearing Armour heading across the world to reveal themselves to potential allies...and enemies. (Age advance soon to Ancient World. Roman era)
"I keep no secrets from my followers. Privacy is not a concern. However, it would be wise to speak elsewhere. These forests are full of dangerous predators. I am impressed that you have survived them." Silver and Holly walked towards an open field. With no cover, both groups would be safe from surprise attacks, be they from predators, ponies, or... weird cat things. "What is your race called, Valacian Hadron? Your kind are unfamiliar to me."
The Tykes began to learn more about technology from watching the other cvilizations advance, they did the same as well, they eventually made a small town they're population now to 37,00 they also planted a giant tree at the back of the town which was now the new nesting tree, Tykes have been in hiding from other races for awhile now. Avoiding trouble, they have forged weaponry and armor. Though the town soon expanded turning into Darkness Keep because of its lack of sun light in that area. Yet they still lie in wait for other cvilizations to show themselves first.
"We are members of the Saberai. Up until I organized the Sun Civilization, we were entirely a nomadic race, perhaps why you have seen none of us before, forests tend not to be our species usual grounds... until recently. And have no fear for us, we are trained to hunt these creatures. You and your friend there... I have not seen your species, ever. Please, grace me with as much courtesy as I gave you with knowledge." The other Saberai warriors followed the two of them, each one having removed their helmet. Some young Lunar pegasi looked from their homes, intrigued by the creatures.
(Imma just wait for someone to cross the Great Plains and reach me...) - - Auto Merge - - As time progressed, the Renoans discovered rich fields for farming and rich mines to dig, a good portion of those mines being a strange rock they were trying to figure out. Their numbers quickly multiplied under this prosperous land and Kona's firm rule making sure any trouble makers were dealt with...swiftly...The sounds of training constantly echoed throughout UrbaReno, reminders of the preparations for the Grand Crusade, even if several generations never got to take part. Reno soon emerged the dominant city-state of the area, the envy of all the tribes who knew them, and always ready to enforce their will upon the "savages" living on their "holy land"
(That will be me...) Several weeks later, the Ryborians came across an isolated civilization and decided to introduce themselves. However, they could be taken as a possible threat. Nonetheless, they came into Renoan territory with smiles on their faces.
Ellis stretched out her body and relaxed, she was lying on a table she hoverd off the table she walked out of her house. Some Tykes were just villagers while others worked for Ellis, she was happy with the way her town grew but living in the shadows forever watching other cvilizations pervail wont do them any good, Ellis--and a few other Tykes went out to discover the cvilizations they've heard about but never seen, she brought along Torius and two other Tykes as they left Darkness Keep
"As I said, my race is called Lunar Pegasi. Our companions are called Timber-Wolves. We came to this land many years ago, from a place called Equestria. There is little else to tell." Silver spoke calmly and politely. "Now that we are each aware of the other's existence, perhaps we should discuss our intentions, should we not?"
"Very well. As you can most likely tell, we both have unique resources, and skilled warriors. As two prospering civilities, we can either be at odds with each other, or assist each other. I would prefer the latter, but we are prepared should the former be your preference." He pulled Maxima Edge off his back and shoved it down, blade partially in the ground. The markings along it lit up bright green. He held the handle with one hand, and held the other hand out towards Silver. "Take your pick, leader of the lunar pegasi."
After a long day of traveling the group didn't find any cvilizations near by, only creatures that they never seen before the sungliht burned they're eyes because they've been in the darkness for so long. The group didn't rest until they found a cvilization, food source, or anything else that would help them surrvive. "Hm, we've been walking for what seemed like ages but found nothing..." Ellis tbought and looked at the water and thinked about what to do if they did happen to come across another cvilization. But for now they set camp next to a river to go to sleep in the others slept while Ellis sat by the fire; thinking.
Kona was on a mounted military patrol with three other Equestans when he noticed odd shapes in the distance, narrowing his eyes, he held up a fist to order the others to stop and drew out his bow and notched an arrow, quickly followed by the rest, "Siisat! Hatii wiindrova sis?!"(Halt! Who goes there?!) He called in Renoan to the shapes, ready to fire
Silver extended his hoof and shook Valacian's hand, making sure that the Saberai leader got a good look at his own enchanted blades. "My species has many skills, not the least of which is the ability to control the weather. We are skilled hunters and farmers, and our Rotgut leather products are nearly indestructible. We have also recently started building a mine, and have discovered a large deposit of iron."
"Very nice, Silver. We have a near limitless supply of Obsidian, and many food products unique to the mountains. Also, our knowledge of the land is yours to access." Valacian bowed and pulled his sword from the ground, placing it back on his back where it belonged. "May this peace last many centuries. You can fly, yes? Then you should have no trouble transporting notes to our city around the volcano, and presumably supplies. My men will handle larger supply transportation. This is agreeable?"
"It is indeed. It was good to have met you, Saberai. Equestrians are taught that individual races must work together for the good of all. I am glad to see somepony that understands this." Silver flew back to Lunaria City to share the news of the alliance. Lunaria prospered, as did their new allies. Lunaria's mines yielded many tons of iron and other metals, and forges were built to create weapons and tools. The iron products, and the knowledge to create them, were shared freely with the Saberai. The Saberai, in turn, helped to secure the mountains and forests. With the two warrior races fighting side-by-side, predator attacks became much rarer. Lunaria continued to grow. (And... The Lunarians are caught up.)
(Hey...Ridley, you do realize steel wasnt really used until the 19th century? Much less Roman times? Also, where is Crim?!)
With the Lunar Pegasi's assistance the Saberai made their mountainous villages greater, and their arsenal saw the same benefit. The entire mountain range now featured large multi-level towns, connected with proper bridges, made of stone and iron. The Saberai made maps of the known lands with the assistance of their wandering brethren. The temple of the sun became a training ground for a heavily stealth based fighting style for both the Saberai and the Pegasi, as well as a religious location for the sun civilization.
(Edited. Sorry. I had a history brain-fart. I had forgotten that steel wasn't manufactured back then, and could only be obtained very rarely.)
(Here !) "Zalabar kirot yan gwello tet kello gi nan. Eriborian farid ze yos hiliba tyba malok asca ceh, asasa resca wse me potosh vela uke. Hes whias prospa ke unas, lws ana resok rjas world. Eriborian skes faafs yus melepan quesa as jaht amamna swuidi ksa friens. Kalahia common usi, sjs tounge Renoan." ("We are merely explorers looking for alliances, and we just happened to come across your prospering nation. Our Eriborian wishes to speak with you for terms of wishing to start up a alliance with you. He believes that with our races united, we shall lead the world into a golden age of prosperity. Our leader will wish to speak with you soon once he receives word that you have arrived with peaceful relations.") The explorers told Kona. ("We can understand your tongue well, and can speak over 8 current languages at this moment. We can switch to the common tongue if you wish." ) Two explorers held their fingers to their forehead to contact their leader through magic telepathy, a rare power that a very low population of Ryborians process. Once they received an OK signal, the Eriborian would arrive to discuss further terms. If not, they will simply leave along with the rest of the explorers.
