	Star Swirl lead a group of younglings through the halls of the refurbished Temple of the Crystal Knights telling them about it's history.

"Master?" A young Drake said stopping in frount of a large statue.

"Yes young one?" Star Swirl asked turning to face him.

"I was woundering if you could tell us about this statue?" The young Drake asked.

"Hmm." The elder unicorn said looking up at the statue. "Ah!" He said recognizing who it was. "This is a statue of one of my most dear friends. His name was Slithodyas. This statue was erected in his memory after he gave his life to save Equestria." Star Swirl explained. "Would you like to here the story?"

"Yes please!" The younglings said in unison.

"Alright," The Crystal Knight Master laughed. "This is a story of love and loss, trial and betrayal, and the forming of new friendships. This is the story of the Discord Wars."
