“When you have lived as long as I have you see old friends and enemies before meeting somepony new. It takes time for this delusion to wear out, for those feelings become ghosts and you see another for who they truly are. Still this long life, though I may curse it at times, is a gift from friends long gone. Ones I will never truly able to repay and so I ask you. Is your life one worth living?” ~Aurora Lorecraft

Far into the future the world of Equus which is now a part of a much larger galactic community has all but forgotten of these dark events, dethroned gods, the great war of pony against gryphon, and even the champions who led them are all legends now. Gryphon and pony intermingle with aliens easily and alicorn’s while not terribly common are far from rare creatures. So much so that seeing one taking care of an old library in the Ponyville district of the Eques sector is not particularly eyecatching. Even as archaic as her cybernetics are this old mare has done enough to remain anonymous to all but the most important of people. So few would think this mare had once had a nation under her battle hardened from wars both civil and foreign against evils that would see their homes more than just destroyed but erased. Even fewer know she wishes she could forget it all just as the world did her.
