02 — Backstory

A war broke out with the introduction of unicorns to Equestria. The unrest was caused by multiple factors; the arthponies and pegasi had been introduced about 500 years apart while unicorns were created over a thousand years after, the unicorns had a natural control over magic that scared the other races, and some unicorns felt entitled to favoured treatment. It caused a lot of conflict, and as tensions rose, the Guides decided to try and put a stop to the fighting. How? With the introduction of the alicorn.

The Guides of Life and Peace worked on the project for years, trying to create the perfect entity embodying harmony and unity. They wanted the alicorn to become a symbol of peace for ponykind. And their first attempt was Agostina, a pony with two sets of wings, five blank eyes, and a heart of metaphorical gold. It seemed like the perfect creation, but it was, after all, just a prototype. Life let them loose in a small northern town so it could become acclimated to pony society before its big debut. But the creature only terrified the townsfolk, their unnatural and foreign appearance causing instant disgust and fear. Agostina was quickly retrieved, and the Guides continued their work on the alicorn design.

Eventually, a few years after Agostina's creation, the finalised alicorn was complete. Solaine Celestia and Celina Luna were revealed at the heart of modern-day Canterlot by Life, taking a glowing pony-esque form. Agostina was given the choice to live on Equus if it chose, but they declined, preferring the ability to watch over ponies from a distance. For thousands of years, Agostina became an advisor of sorts to the Guides, on rare occasions going down to Equus to get a better look at things, but always returning to the ethereal plane with the godly entities.

03 — Story

Taking A Chance

Shortly before Luna's exile was up, Life requested to speak with Agostina. They complied easily, and Life wondered about what a beautiful creation they were, even all these centuries after their creation. Life told it that she wanted it to give another try at living amongst ponies. Once Luna returned, if it wanted, it could even meet the alicorns, and explain who Agostina was to them. The ophanim was very hesitant, watching over Solaine while contemplating the proposition. Last time, they were almost immediately driven out of the town. But in the time since then, both the social rigidity and customs have changed. In the end, probably a year after Life suggested, Agostina came down to Equestria, in the peaceful town of Ponyville.

The first decision as a physical entity Agostina made was to shed the unnatural parts of their true form. Narrowing its vision to two eyes was difficult, especially recreating the pupils and irises, but it was simply easier than dealing with the vitriol of last time. It also sheds its wings, feeling that a simple unicorn filly would be an easier disguise. After millenia of overseeing pony activities with no practical experience, it thought that any oddities or unusual behaviour could be brushed off as Agostina just being an underdeveloped and confused child.

Learning Curve

It quickly became apparent that the social awkwardness of a mortal colt or filly was much different from that of a divine being. Agostina learned much in their first few weeks, including the fact that their name was very out-dated. Agostina took the name 'Celestial Resonance' to appease the concerned ponies, and enrolled itself into school after a particularly worried mare chased it around town trying to figure out which school it was skipping out on. But the ponies there were nice, if a bit immature and rowdy. Agostina kept to herself, not wanting to be bothered and not intending to make friends with the younglings. Not everything Agostina wanted to happen did happen, though, as they were absorbed into the small clique that called itself 'The Cutiemark Crusaders'. Agostina's marking did not appear suffice to them, so the boisterous fillies made plan after plan to discover their new friend's talent.

pop Quiz

Agostina tried its best to keep the fillies safe and away from their more dangerous plans, but one must have slipped through its hooves. They only heard the yelling before they ran from their comfortable spot in the back yard, following the sounds to the schoolhouse. A large beastly thing was hulking over the kids, Miss Cheerilee trying her best to act intimidating, but she was a single earthpony up against the gelatinous space-monster. The creature's claws sliced into the earth like butter, and the ophanim knew there was no other choice. She wasn't going to let a bunch of children get hurt!

In a burst of light that distracted the beast, Agostina stripped of their disguise and flew in front of the group. It used small blasts of energy to knock the creature away. The foals watched with intrigue, and finally Agostina was able to get it to flee. They wanted to follow after it, but instead chose to sooth the children and their teacher. Everypony was very confused, concerned, but also awed by the change in appearance. Cheerilee gave them an honourary graduation party a few weeks later, as it became clear that 'Celestial Resonance' was much too old to be in primary school. But the Cutiemark Crusaders still invite them to meetings, and the other children regard it as their saviour and akin to an older sibling.

04 — Trivia

  • Agostina is named after the song by Puscifer! The song is the singer, Maynard James Keenan, welcoming his daughter into the world. It feels like the song could be Life and Peace introducing Agostina after being created.

  • They are considered the Prototype Alicorn because they were created before the Alicorn Sisters. However, no one outside of the small town it visited knows of its existence -- not even Celestia and Luna.

  • Life wanted it to act like a mortal because she wasn't certain how Equestria would be affected once Luna returned from the moon. Agostina might have been their only hope, and Life wanted them ready and capable to pilot a mortal form.

  • Yet another design I've been following since its creation, and one that I felt would represent me well since my name is Seraph. I use Truesona loosely -- if I were a pony, I'd want to look like Agostina.
