Bro... I LOOOOOOOVVEEE THIS.

Different lore snippets about some of the important figures in Hylios! Lore dump below:

Before becoming Empress and the Patron of Order, Midnight Gold was a general in the war against King Sombra. On the brink of death in the battlefield, Starswirl used his magic to try and save Midnight, preforming a very risky spell(one that almost killed him as well) that turned Midnight Gold into an Alicorn.

With her newfound power and with the help of her troops and aid from The Royal Sisters they were able to defeat Sombra. Midnight did not take a position of power in the Crystal Kingdom however, as King Sombra’s curse still took effect, and the Kingdom disappeared for 1000 years. She instead was encouraged by StarSwirl to go to Hylios, as the empire had no Alicorn or real stable leadership. For the next some odd hundred years she ruled Hylios with the council. Taking a vow to never again use her magic for violence and creating one of the more stable civilizations in Equestria until WishBrights banishment.

Out of pure desperation, Daybreak came to her and asked for her help in the raising and lowering of the moon. After much physically and mentally taxing practice, Midnight was able to take the role that Wish previously held, becoming the honorary “princess of the moon”. A title which she vehemently was against.

Hylios is full of bright, scientific and magical minds. Sometimes the place births ponies and bit wackier than most, ENO being one of them. She stops blowing up stuff as much once Midnight comes in. #cantergale

Also— I’ve gotten lots of questions about whether or not this is a fic or an ongoing story somewhere. Instagram and tumblr are the only places I post about my AU! There isn’t any official writing for the story except in the captions of these posts, so everything in the CanterGale tag is all there is, sorry😭💜 I’ve considering starting a fic because of all the interest, but I’d like to hone my skills before doing anything like that. I’ve already got an embarrassing johnlock fic out there I DONT NEED MORE
