The year is 1019. 

And the World is on fire. 

The Final Showdown of the Griffonian Empire and the Republicans in the North is at claw. 

Meanwhile, the nation of Equestria has finally destroyed the Changeling threat once and for all.

However, it was only doable at the cost of their principles, morals, and their Princess’s sanity.

The heir to the Crystal Empire, Princess Flurry Heart has just turned fifteen years old. However, the world is crumbling down around the doomed landlocked Kingdom. Just a month prior, Flurry Heart was nearly abducted by her aunt, Princess Twilight Sparkle only stopped due to the timely intervention of her mother. But will it be enough to stop their defeat? 

And what about after? 

Will the new Solar Empress have them executed? Converted to another drone like Flurry’s Aunt? 

Only time will tell. 

This story is actually based on an Equestria at war playthrough I did a while back, so I am using its timeline to the best of my memory, if an event is impossible in the mod that occurs in the story, please tell me so I can fix it.

Chrysalis appears in the Crystal empire to reveal that, when she was impersonating Cadence, she and Shining Armor had a child. Unable to feed the young Prince Hornet with love alone, she forces Cadence to adopt the child. Sadly, Prince Hornet is not only destructive, he is a living testament to his father's unintentional infidelity, putting intense strain on both Cadence and Shining Armor. Can Cadence learn to cope with this problem child and the fact that she now knows she has "shared" her husband with the creature she hates the most?
