Clover the Clever never asked for his life to get so complicated.  It was bad enough tricking a drunk Imperatrix Celestia, war goddess of the Three Tribes, out of her accidental coup against Queen Platinum.  But now the most dangerous pony in Equestria has returned to trade her claim on the sun for a chance to woo him.

On top of that, his erstwhile mentor Star Swirl the Bearded has saddled him with a mysterious magical necklace and a uniquely bleak and pointless prophecy: If he's brave enough, and if he's clever enough, he just might survive Celestia for long enough to break her heart.

Recommended by PresentPerfect! "horizon gave me the story I needed rather than the one I wanted ... along the way we get some very strong lessons about love, and meditations on the value of a lifetime and what one pony can achieve on their own."

Years have passed now sense the Wendigos were defeated. And the construction of Equestria's first outpost has finally been completed. The good times should be starting to begin. There not. For while the Wendigos might be gone, the old grudges between the three pony tribes have begun to reemerge, threatening to tear apart the fledgling nation before it can even truly begin.

At the center of it all is Smart Cookie, one of Equestria's original founders, as well as one of its newly appointed leaders. Thus making her responsible for finding a way to unite the three pony tribes into a single unified country. But can such a thing be accomplished when your working against generations of bullying, blackmail, and thievery between three groups of vastly different ponies? Perhaps the answer can be found with an explanation for why the the Earth Pony is suddenly seeing and hearing thunder and lightning over the horizon, when there's not a cloud in the sky.

This will be my first ever attempt at fan fiction. So please don't hold back with the constructive criticism.

Also, I'm still relatively new to the fandom, and haven't seen that many episodes in their entirety. Most of what I know has come from reaction videos and episode reviews. So please don't be afraid to point out any continuity errors in my story as well.

I hope you enjoy!

This story is a sequel to A Song of Storms: Of Skies Long Forgotten


It has been twenty years since the fall of the Cirran Empire, and Commander Hurricane has led the pegasus pony tribe into a comfortable role in accordance with the Tri-Pony Compact. But a supernatural blizzard without end brings forth the suppressed hatreds that have festered among the three tribes, and the resulting famine threatens to eradicate all; earth pony, unicorn, and pegasus alike. With a bloody war looming on the horizon and the fate of their ponies at stake, the three tribes must find a way to survive together, or they will assuredly die alone.

Sequel to "Of Skies Long Forgotten." Reading of that story is not absolutely necessary to understand what is going on, but it is strongly recommended for you to understand the references.

A decade after uniting with the other tribes under the banner of Equestria, there are some fading traditions that the warrior pegasi cling to. One of those is an honor foal for the most commendable female officers; an opportunity to bear a foal of their line while remaining counted as on duty, with full support of the tribe in its care and upbringing.

When Major Pansy is granted an honor foal, she sees it as a chance to offer the strength of her line to the future of Equestria, despite having let her service to tribe and country prevent her from ever having found a suitable mate. But she knows just the pony she wants for its father: a strong pony, a brave and skilled soldier, a wise commander, and the dearest of friends. Considering it, she may want even more from him than a sire for her foal.

But Commander Hurricane has always protected his emotions with a stony mask and an armor constructed so that nopony can pierce it. Especially not the one pony he holds above all others in his esteem: the hopeless soldier who once stood before him for discharge with the true spirit of a pegasus shining through her.  


Set in the same continuity as Sun and Hearth and Respect and Respectability, but neither are required reading.
