//------------------------------// // Friday // Story: Sunbeam // by TheMajorTechie //------------------------------// Day 14 Okay, so Starlight said that she'll be going back and reporting both me and the other guards as deceased to keep us undercover. Some of the shadier ponies are being kept under watch by those of us that are more obviously onboard with Star's plan. Just in case. But anyway, Starlight also said that we'd have to change our identities to keep anypony from figuring out who we actually are if we're caught. A lot of the other guards that came with me chose codenames like "spearfisher" and "iceberg", but me? I think I'll go with Sunbeam. I'm already from the Sunbeam corps anyway, so I'd might as well try and put a bit more of a positive twist on that name. So anyway, today, me and the rest of the Ashen Resistance started working out some plans. Starlight said she wants Luna to be in charge while she's gone, but Luna isn't exactly here yet. I think I remember hearing that Princess Cadance from the Crystal Empire is also supposed to be chipping in to help, so we've got a lot of firepower on our side already! But anyway, continuing on. Starlight says that she thinks that even though the Elements of Harmony themselves have been destroyed, it might be possible to use the Tree of Harmony itself (or at least, the treehouse that it turned into) as a weapon against Daybreaker. I don't really know any exact details, but I think I remember something along the lines of "makeshift Elements" or something like that being thrown around. That's gonna be interesting to see. Also also, I finally learned a bit of news on what was happening and what caused what! It turns out that firstly, the Ponyville attack was a direct order from Daybreaker herself, not Starlight, because there was a rumor that Luna was building a resistance army there to take down her sister. I guess that rumor turned out to be true. Secondly, apparently there was a short time where the Windigos started to return when some of the early fighting broke out, but Daybreaker kind of... uh, smited them. I don't think they'll ever be a problem again. But yeah. Things have gotten a lot more interesting for me!
