Hello Guys. My Name is Xword, and I'm fairly new to Fanfiction. This is going to be my first Fanfiction and I would really appreciate any support that you guys could give me. If I make any mistakes, feel free to correct me as long as you're polite. I hope to have fun writing these stories, and I hope you guys have fun reading them. Also, I should mention that I'm using the Pre-alicorn Twilight as there are a lot more opportunities.

I do not in any way claim ownership to any characters, except Zakaz. They are property of Hasbro.

"The reclusive Seramon are known to live high in the far off mountains, where it's believed they practice magic in solitude"

Twilight looked up at her friends with a sigh. "There's almost no Information on these Seramon. Everything is just guesses and speculation, with no hard evidence." She sighed again, before placing the book on a precariously teetering stack of books. She was in the Canterlot library with her friends. Surrounding them were rows upon rows of bookcases, filled with books, scrolls and parchments on all subjects except, it seemed, Seramon.

"Don't worry Twilight. We'll find out something." Rarity answered, looking at her fellow unicorn. "Do you know why Princess Celestia asked you to research them?"

Twilight shook her head. "No, she only asked that we find out about them, but there's nothing!" She replied, standing up and walking over to another bookcase. Above her, Rainbow dash and Fluttershy were inspecting the higher shelves of the bookcases. Meanwhile, Applejack and Pinkie Pie were busy reading books about farming and balloons.

"Remind me again, what am I looking for?" Rainbow Dash asked. Twilight shot her a glance.

"For the fourth time, we are looking for anything on Sermon" She said with yet another sigh, before turning her attention to another book. She soon tossed it aside. There was a crash as the book smacked into the pile of books. It swayed slightly, then stopped. Twilight breathed a sigh of relief.

There was a sudden crash as the entire tower of books fell and collided with a bookcase, knocking it over. The bookcase knocked into its neighbour, which in turn knocked over the next bookcase. Down they fell, like dominos, until none stood standing. Books were scattered around and pages were settling around the six ponies like Twilight's eye twitched.

"Keep calm, it's only going to take us hours to clean up this mess…" She whispered, before a book on top of the mess caught her eye. It was old, with golden lettering on the front. Inset in the cover of the book was a large green gem. The title read 'The book of infinite Knowledge'. Twilight opened it up, and a note fell from between the pages. She picked it up and read it aloud.

Dear Celestia

As you have entrusted me with the safety of one of your greatest treasure, it seems fitting that I entrust you with one of ours. This is the Book of infinite knowledge. Within its pages lie the answers to all mysteries of equestrian and beyond. However, it will not reveal its contents to anybody who wishes to use that information for ill. It will only show the basest of knowledge to those who wish to use it for good.

I hope that both our treasures remain safe until the right time.

Shroud.

Twilight smiled. She opened the book, and found its pages filled with information. She placed the book on a table, and the six gathered around the book.

Seramon

The Seramon are a reclusive and ancient civilisation, dating back as far as time. They are considered by many to be fictional, a way of explaining the unexplainable. As a result, very few people know any truths about them, and fewer still have ever met one.

The average Seramon is around the same size as a pony. They resemble large hounds, with long, thin, flexible tails. They are covered in sleek dark fur with markings, similar to cutie marks in that each one is unique and represents a specific skill the individual has. Seramon are also very skilled in illusions and stealth. The Seramon also possess a large amount of ancient and powerful artefacts.

Twilight closed the book. She smiled, and said "I think we've found the book."

So, that's all for now. Rate and Review if you want to, and if you have any suggestions or requests. I've been Xword, and keep watch for the next chapters. Peace.
