Tall Fescue—a descendant of migrants fleeing from the Realm of Kiria's oppressive and century-long Silence—crosses the ocean and travels to his homeland with his future squadmates under an Equestria-based private security company, Walkover's.
Supervised by a wizened officer named Apple Bloom, Walkover's newest recruits enter the fray with one purpose: to keep the peace in a nirik-run anarchy of warlords beyond the borders of a technocratic corporate state.
But Tall enters with another goal in mind and in heart: to consecrate his best years to saving the land of the kirin.
Set in the universe of the Hearts of Iron IV mod "Equestria at War", though this fic does not require prior reading.
Inspired by Warpony72's "Front to Front", UnknownError's "The Princess and the Kaiser", and the catalog of MagicS.
Thanks to Warpony72, UnknownError, Mokoma, @user_name555 (on Discord), and Casketbase77 for help in preliminary brainstorming.
Tentatively, first three chapters to be published within a week of each other, then one chapter every week until Arc 1 of at least 2 is fully published.
