Operation Herzschmerz (Operation Heartache) is in effect. Oberstleutnant Ferdinand Dawnclaw knows what he must do.

A different take on events in a story set in the Alternate Universe of the HOI4 Mod "Equestria at War".

A one off. May or may not continue depending on interest.

WARNING!

Contains: Violence and excessive use of German terminology.

Disclaimer: A few things have been changed from the in-game lore especially Ferdinand himself so I beg your indulgence for taking artistic licenses.

You chose a hard path for the griffin empire. I suggest you don't attack them all at once and just take them over one by one. Trust me its easier to deal with one nation attacking you then it it 6 or 7

Yes, sadly, time is not on your side though. That's why Herzschmerz is an absolute pain in the flank. Took me several reloads before I got it and that was only because Strawberry attacked me first. Made dealing with the others easier.

Okay this is expertly written. I appreciate this on so many levels especially for sparring the boy.

Thank you, that comment means so much to me. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I thought it would be interesting to take a different take on the Lord Protector. :)

“And Boreas save me...I couldn’t do it.”

What is this!? Dawnclaw not taking Grover to meet his father!? Potential Father-Son Plot pog!?

awesome chapter mate keep it up cant wait for the next chapter:pinkiehappy::twilightsmile:

Haha, well, I thought it would be more interesting to the plot to explore his character more. Villains are always so interesting to me and I feel like a lot of his potential is squandered in game.

Thank you for the encouragement! I will definitely work to make that a reality soon. :pinkiehappy:

Ferdinand Dawnclaw is the most blessed path for the Empire.

Oh, so this is how it would be like for Dawnclaw if he didn't kill Grover.
I wonder what kind of griff a Grover VI raised by the totalitarian military dictator would become.

Vogelfeder recognized it at once. It was from one of the best known Wingbardian operas that had taken Griffenheim by storm when it first premiered. It was a tale of treachery and lust and a nobleman who would stop at nothing to satisfy them both. He knew this song too. It was the aria of the loyal fiancé who vows to slay the villainous nobleman and avenge his dishonored beloved.

Nobleman? Don't you mean noblegriff?

So,,, is this officially dead or?

It'd be interesting to see the author write about Pallas Dusktalon. Dusktalon was pretty much evil through and through by 1007ALB, although he was an okay griffon many years before.
