The Storm Kingdom was left in shambles after the demise of their King in the Battle of Canterlot. Rebellions skyrocketed across the Empire, leaving it in a perpetual state of war in an attempt to keep everything together.
Equestria and other nations snatch the opportunity, bringing an endless amount of aid to all rebels, while not directly involving themselves in the conflicts.
As the situation was beginning to worsen for the Storm Kingdom, their new King decides to open peace talks with Equestria with the hope of ending the violence, but then a new figure decided to put his hat in the ring.
He is feared by both the rebels and the Kingdom itself. Everything except his name is virtually unknown in Equestria and its allies. But what the rebels named him should be enough to tell what he was going to do.
They called him... the Butcher.
Just a short one-chapter story. I don't intend to make this full.
Thanks for reading, and criticize if you want to.
I loved new Vegas, I go with ceasars leagon to bring peace and security to the wastes
That's just so badass! This would make an amazing full story if you were willing to write it
whoa, I wonder what made him hate ponies so much and his story of brutality and loyalty to his country he must have one heck of a past for that chip on his shoulder!
Yup, Lanius is that big of a badass. I am really happy I maxed-out Speech by the end of New Vegas, as I had a really bad time fighting him in my first playthrough.
The Beast of The East is such a badass.
I doubt Lanius would willingly serve anyone other than Caesar, but this is just one of those one-shot what if fics so whatevs.
Looks like the Princesses need to call in the Courier to take him down.
What's this a crossover with?

this is Lanuis, he slaughters slave girls to appease the god of war. he'll kill anything
Please continue with this story. The concept itself is intriguing enough and I, and many others, would like to see this develop.
Fuck yeeeeesssssss, this is awesome, freaking awesome and bloody.
Good show, good show!

I was the one who added it. Thanks for the update.
You know. I kinda wouldn't mind to read a full story from where this short story left off. Just to find out what the Butcher does next.
Hope Celestia's speech skill is high enough...
