Star Chaser’s life is a pretty good one, all things considered. She’s happily married with a family in the works, and all she needs is four more years of military service before her engineering degree is totally paid for. She has crewmates for friends, her wife and cousins for family, and the whole United Pony Republics to live in and fight for. Which is why she’s very far from okay when a mysterious vessel seemingly unaffiliated with any of the three nations forcibly wrenches her from that life.

All these maybe-smugglers-maybe-pirates want to do is collect the Elements of Harmony and use them to bring back the ground that the Calamity stole from ponykind over a century ago. But it’s not long before she starts to realize that this simple quest is just the tip of a very big and very deadly iceberg. And with all three nations gearing up for a brutal war while seemingly guided by a shadowy puppeteer, and something brewing beneath the toxic Cloudbase that could spell a fate worse than death for all ponykind, she quickly starts to realize just what she got shoved into the middle of. And what she might have to sacrifice to make it all end happily.

This is her story.
