Hon. Mechwarriors;
"Any technology sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from friendship." Arthur Colt Clark
Here is the book you asked for Twilight. Please be carefull with it as it is very old.
In the beginning God created the heavens and Equestria.
Equestria was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.
Wait a moment, if God is omniscient and omnipotent, then what happened between the first and second sentence? It sounds as if creation came into being in a state of perfection in an instant, followed by the mediate restoration of Equestria. What Gives?
I told you she was a sharp one sister. This may take a while Twilight.
In the first time, there were Alicorns. They fell short of the grace of God and there was war in heaven, much that once was, was lost to chaos.
In the trial that followed, a sentence was rendered for those who rejected the creator's gracious mercy. The fallen appealed thier sentence, impuning the love and integrity of the creator. The creator chose to resolve the appeal by conviening another trial within a restored Equestria with a lesser creature, the Pony. It is through Pony history that the creator is vindicated and the fallen are shown to have been justly sentenced.
In the course of Pony history, many attempts to establish harmony have been tried and failed. In the current era Magic has allowed the exploration of the moon and many other worlds.

The exploration of the Alicorn Ruins became the closest guarded state secrets of the Pony age.
The research into the irreducably simplified engineering discovered based on physics principals largely regarded as magic by modern sensibilities became the perview of brotherhoods, and State Intelligence agencies. The advantages of exclusive access to this knowledge became a clear and present threat to the soveriegnty of every Equestrian State. Wars have been and continue to be fought for control of these secrets.
But why are you telling me this now?
You have been taught that the rising and the setting of the sun and the moon are our responsibiilties. You know also that the weather is managed by the pegasai at my behest.
That ancient tome tells of a time in the last days, when signs and wonders in the Sun and the Moon would cause pony hearts to fail them for fear. That the weather would become chaotic and weaponized.
In the earliest days of Pony exploration of the heavens, The Brookings Institute warned that should extra-equestrian intelligence be discovered, then Ponivilization might be jeopardized by the indiscriminate revelation of such.
The report entitled
"Proposed Studies on the Implications of Peaceful Space Activities for Pony Affairs." can be found here.

We would like your help in preparing the foals of Equestria for this reality. We will begin with a story fit for Foals, Fillis, and Stalions. We'd like you to help us craft a tale of harmony and Friendship indistinguishable from a sufficiently advanced technology. We're thinking of calling it My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. If this works out well, we have ideas for a number of cross overs....
