Warning:  There's going to be alot of reading.. I'd post a character piece, but I haven't quite completed Prince Crucible's ref, so there's going to be a ton of reading below.  If you're interested though, go ahead and enjoy!  :)



Not much is known or explained about how things began in the show/lore, so here is my fan made theory and interpretation on said beginnings.


(This is the story soo far, if you got anymore questions, throw them at me!)




Genesis: Creation of Equestria and the Experiment:

Before Equestria, the chosen ascended Alicorns from the last world were sent out for the purpose of spreading life and Harmony across space as their fathers and mothers did so before them. Princess Celestia and her siblings Prince Crucible, Princess Luna, Prince Sombra and Princess Chrysalis descended upon a newly formed star system. Since Luna, Chrysalis and Sombra were too young to wield the immense power of their older siblings, the godlike Celestia and Crucible set upon forming a new world for their creations, new ponies that would be chosen for the next round ascensions into Alicorns.
The eldest brother, Crucible, used his magical influence over magma and plasma to form Equestria and the planet it rested on along with it's iron core, (soon to be Tartarus later on) forming the 'dynamo' effect to protect it's inhabitants from the harshness of the young star the fiery planet was being built around. Untold eons would pass, his younger siblings playing and looking in awe of the forming earth and oceans below. Celestia in the meantime watched, keeping the gifts of their parents bestowed upon them before leaving for their journey, 'The Elements of Harmony".
After his duties were completed, the eldest sibling Celestia, enriched the planet below with life and creating a fresh sky, full of brisk color and beauty. Much to Crucible's surprise, she seemed to have bestowed fully formed life upon the surface. Unicorns and Pegasi were resting undisturbed until the time came to wake them to their new world, this unexpected genesis brought grave concern in Crucible's eyes.
He wished for her to reverse the use of her 'reckless' magic, stating: "There shall only be Order out of Chaos." What Celestia did is his eyes was no better than Discord's treacherous chaos, however his sister would not listen she wished to try a new tactic in bringing forth new ascended Alicorns. Celestia wished to try and cultivate new kin through teaching them about true harmony and friendship as her and siblings did before by themselves and through their harsh experiences through life. The last world she said: "..was too full of sorrow, hate and misery, we barely made it through. Our Parents said to spread Harmony, I choose to do so this way, we will bring forth more kin to populate the Universe."
Crucible was skeptical of her sister's experimentation, he decided to play along at the time to see the 'fruits' of his eldest sibling's hunch. So, he imbued the original ponies he planned to seed across the world with great strength to compete with Celestia's new creations and dubbed the new breed, the 'Earth Ponies'. Delighted, the oldest sister formed Canterlot, the spark of civilization, the Elements of Harmony were stored in the 'Tree of harmony' and would be used in times when the agents of Chaos such as Discord came to threaten this new world.


Seeds of Discord:

Centuries passed, centuries full of the older siblings bickering and fighting at the determent to their younger kin. The new laws of nature Celestia created for their 'subjects' to follow during this time, only angered Crucible more. He at first pleaded with his sister, that such reckless use of her magic for extended periods of time would sacrifice her godly powers, weakening her and leaving herself and her siblings at risk from the agents of chaos and the minions of discord as the eons pass, thus threatening the 'Cycle of Harmony' their parents began before. Chrysalis would always back Crucible up in every arguement to gain his approval, Luna took both sides just to end the bickering. As always though, thinking her power would last in an act of young arrogance, not yet feeling the affects of her powers straining, Celestia eventually just ignored her brother and they grew apart over time, causing immense friction in their family.

Being the former wielder of the Element of Honesty, Crucible finally grew the courage to challenge what he knew in his heart to be a farce. One day, he stormed Canterlot, the still fledgling kingdom reeling from past conflicts from the seeds of chaos laid down by Discord in former wars. Knowing his sister wasted great amounts of magic to form what he viewed as 'abominations' he scorched the southern lands of Equestria (Forging The Dragon Lands and the Badlands.) and began his invasion with an army of begrudged Earth Ponies, treated poorly by the Unicorns and the Pegasai in the past and strange creatures that would be known in the future as 'Dragons', Prince Crucible besieged the city. Celestia responded with anger and dismay, as most of her precious subjects were burned away from her brother's fury.
Princesses Chrysalis and Luna and Prince Sombra looked upward in disbelief as their older siblings fought, the moon red with smoke and debris, the sky above blackened by ash, two great lights of red and rainbow clashing in the heavens. The two were evenly matched due to Celestia using up alot of her power previously to move the sun and moon for centuries since Genesis. Blow for Blow, both powers would not budge, the planet was in a violent flux, life in Equestria hung in the balance as the world plunged into chaos. In desperation, Celestia called on her younger siblings to bring her the elements of harmony to bring Crucible to justice for his crimes. Unsure, the young ones hesitated in their inexperience, until finally Sombra, seeking a way to gain power, brought the elements to Celestia on the promise he'd be given the right to gain dominion over the Crystal Empire and the Frozen North. Enraged, he scorched Sombra's wings away in desperation to prevent him from giving the Elements to his rival, but it was too late for Crucible.
Celestia, with all of her might used the Elements of Harmony to banish Crucible to Tartarus, sealing him indefinitely in her rage. Volcanoes across the southern territories of Equestria and in spots across the other continents burst forth as the magma below churned violently, the result of her banished brother's in vain attempts to escape. After many hours, silence finally came upon the land.



The Molten Herd (To be expanded upon soon!):

While trapped underneath his new prison, Crucible refused to give up bringing up powerful future alicorns. Just twenty four kilometers under the surface of the planet, Crucible formed a second biosphere, in his furious anger like a frustrated painter taking his frustration out on a canvas, he haltingly forged this new world. As his final act of great power, he brought life upon the creations he planned on developing naturally over time before Celestia's gambit. These new ponies, the 'Molten Ponies', did now have magic, nor could fly, nor had great strength, but possessed great curiosity and yearning for understanding of their world and beyond a new path to ascension to challenge his sister. However, he had no choice but to help them adapt under such hot conditions, thus the new herd's molten scars across their cutie marks and hooves. The deed was done, a world insulated from what Crucible saw was chaos above, a last beacon of hope in his eyes.
With what power the weakened Alicorn had left, he formed a keep in Tartarus that lay beneath in the molten mantle below the biosphere he created in the crust above, a place to rest and build up his strength. When the time came, he knew Celestia would be soo weak the magical barrier between worlds would crumble, his bars rusted, a chance to wreak vengeance. Crucible was incredibly weak and exhausted from his labor, he set off to slumber deep within his fortified fortress. He would seek revenge to rescue his sisters from Celestia and the treacherous Sombra in his dreams, awakening only periodically to assess the situation. He would then sleep again to allow his magic to recover quicker. Time passed above him, with Cerberus protecting the gates of his new kingdom, eventually his nightmares of hate and fear would be visited by a familiar face, a temporary reprieve from the often lonely prison he was given.


Luna's Visitation:

As to be expected, Celestia grew concerned for her brother's eventual return and after Luna's imprisonment from the moon, Celestia tasked her to check on and to try and calm their resting kin below in the hopes of preventing another Civil War. Luna also did this out of concern and empathy for her fallen brother. Though he sleeps uneasy, dreams of his beloved sister Luna did help somewhat to cool him down, ever so slightly. She and Celestia only hope that this is enough, counting on a cautious optimism he still loves his siblings despite their philosophical differences. Today, he continues to slumber, hearing only rumors from Luna that Alicorns have began developing already, causing mixed feelings and hopefully quelling his fears. At least in theory.

However, the results of such news have been mixed, with Chrysalis' visits causing the fire to flicker again ever since discovering him after her defeat at the hooves of the new Princess, Caidence and Shining Armor. Seeing as a way to claim Equestria for herself, she attempts to spread renewed fear and frustration in her brother's already fragile mind. Even in the depths of the earth, seeds of discord always finds it's way in.
