THIS STORY HAS BEEN CANCELLED

47 years ago, the world as we know it changed. On December 21st of 2012, the magical land of Equestria appeared on Earth and forever altered how we would view the world, the universe, and each other. It is now 2059 AD, or 47 AC (After Contact) and we are still feeling the effects of Equestria's presence.

Wishing to gain insight from both humans, her own subjects, and even Equestrians who were born within human nations, Princess Celestia tasks a young Pegasus from New York with a task. To collect and tell the tales of those who have lived through all the changes that have taken place, through all the trials and tribulations the last few decades have had to offer.

These tales come from all kinds, from the first human to set foot in Equestria to the very authors of the book itself. They are tales of joy, of sadness, of wonder and curiosity and of ignorance and hate. They cross the full spectrum of human and equestrian emotion to form something beautiful and wonderous.

And at the very core, one of the very things that has defined this century, for both mankind and ponykind:

The Conversion Bureaus.

Come with us as we forge the story of this Strange New World.

-Hey all, we're open to people willing to contribute. I wanted this to be a collab project anyways, and to really make this good we'll need anyone whose willing to take the time and effort to join us. Perhaps hopefully someday entire chapters will even be written by a single author!

Anywho, if you want to contribute, just send me a PM including how you would like to contribute. This story is written in several formats, as you'll see upon reading, so even if you don't feel like writing a chapter, you can still contribute. Fair warning though, this is a reconstruction of TCB, not a regular TCB or a deconstruction fic. As long as you remember that when your contributing, things should be fine.

Right now, I'd be greatly and deeply thankful for anyone who would be able to provide decent coverart. If your willing to do such, just send me or one of the co-authors or advisors a PM.
