So the borealis program was making nukes ... And some went off starting conflict...
This is why we can't have nice things ... Stupid humanity and their insane quest to destroy anything and everything just to prove we got the bigger wang

One should give humanity a chance, but keep a VERY Close Eye on it, sure there are plenty of morons that would love to mess up the World, or rather in this case WORLDS, but there are just as many that would fight them every step on the way.

So I missed this chapter when it came out. I will still do the analysis for this chapter.
Spoilers for chapter 'The Weight we Carry.'
Fleur de Lis is speaking with someone, most likely a pony, about wanting to meet Daniel Graff, and given how she said "meet" it is probable that this first little bit of the chapter takes place before the entirety of the first chapter. Whoever she is speaking with may be her employer for some sort of organized crime, given how he can "find anyone," but it appears Fleur has something against Daniel, and her little stunt was more of a personal vendetta. Borealis had, in Fluer's own words, spread like a virus through Lower Canterlot, leaving only a carcass when it moved out," so naturally, everyone assumed the Graff family had fled the city. Fleur believes that Borealis in Equestria is merely hibernating, and Daniel is the key to its second coming again. This was her main motive for the attempted assassination of Daniel Graff. There may have been others, but this is the big one. Now, a person is on a subway owned by Borealis to their main HQ. Given the fact that it is in first person, it is probably Daniel. Daniel lives in the old HQ of Borealis when they were in Equestria, keeps it running and makes sure nobody and nopony finds it, as if they would even check there anyway. Daniel has received a transmission from a Borealis representative telling Daniel that he is the only one who can save the company. Daniel can mold the company into a symbol of peace and advancemwnt for human and pony kind. But he'd rather die than risk a repeat of what happened. Daniel has lost all faith in fellow humans, given that his parents were responsible for a war of worlds.
Woah. This chapter answered many questions. We have the motive, the means. We still have a while before everything is said and done, and I hope to see more development of Daniel. The whole "humans are evil" ideology Daniel has seems to be skewed through his experiences with them, however.
