A mare began to stir lifting her head up from the collection of papers. This mare was a beautiful mare with a lovely shade of blue for her coat. Coming from a small north-eastern tribe of traveling Equinomi ponies that shared close ancestry with zebras she was often dressed in her ancestor's historical garbs. A deep and rich colored dress. An Embroidered, princess seamed, and cross-laced at the bodice, with a smocked back panel for flattering fit with ruffled, three-quarter sleeves and ruffled hem.

Her other features included a pale silver-blue color mane kept in a long braid that she wraps around her neck with sap green eyes.

Slowly, she began to regain consciousness, although a splitting headache accompanied that consciousness. "Ugh, what happened?" She groaned to herself as she tried to get a feel for her surroundings. Rising to her hooves, she found herself still in her study, but the room was dark.

She emitted a warm violet green.

"Do not be alarmed miss Crystal Gazing I mean you no harm!" A deep baratone spoke causing her to yelp in alarm and try to fire a bolt only to collapse against the table when she felt a surge of pain.

"W-Who are you? W-What have you done to me? W-What did you do my magic!" Crystal shouted, bracing herself against the table.

A figure in a white robe stepped out of the shadows. He pulled down the hood to show himself. He revealed himself to be a stallion, but for some reason Crystal found it difficult to make out his features.

"Now now miss gazing I am not here to cause trouble. I am trying to save Equestria." Crystal gave a slightly confused look "Well my dear most are unaware, but there is trouble brewing for your nation." She narrowed her eyes at him, but he continued to speak. "The menace of Discord might be over, but another shall soon arise to take his place. The embodiment of war itself Strife is free and he will stoke the flames of wrath."

"Why come to me about it? The princesses are the strongest ponies in the nation." Crystal rebutted, "If anypony can stop this threat its them."

"You are naïve child. I will give you this; the alicorns of sun and moon are mighty, but even they are not all powerful. Did Celestia not need the Elements to stop Nightmare Moon? Or they're reliance against the mad god? The bearers are mortal and can be easily killed. Celestia herself is weakened. Cadance is to the north and Luna is trying to run this nation. At the moment none of them have the time or means to combat this threat as they focus on strengthening Equestria."

"That doesn't answer my question. Why me?" Why was he telling her all this.

"Why my dear child its simple. Because you're not that powerful." He answered as protests were about to escape Crystal's lips.

"Power and strength are two different things girl. Strength is often a physical representation of might or even in some regards a measure of mental fortitude. Power is the ability to use what you have whether it be strength, influence, or wealth.

Those who can command armies or lead nations have power. You a single pony do not have much power at all. You lack the ability to go to war or wage war. Hence you cannot fuel Strife's agenda. War if Strife's concept and the fueling of a concept can fuel such a being.

Just as Discord grew power from all the events of the Nightmare Children fueling chaos Strife himself was directly fueled and reawakened. He will seek to stoke the flames of war anyway we can and buy informing the ponies who have the greatest ability to wage war will play into his hands. After all it would be irresponsible of them not to prepare the nation for anything that could occur. But you Crystal. You could help us avoid this whole messy situation by helping me stop Strife in his tracks before any harm can occur."

This was a lot to take in. She wasn't sure if she should believe this pony or not. At the very least it wouldn't hurt to check right?

Lost in her thoughts, trying to comprehend the sheer absurdity that was happiness and mulling whether or not to trust this pony Crystal missed the other occupant slipping out a pendant from his sleeve, the jewel in the middle glowing faintly.

Crystal rubbed her head as she felt some sort of brief migraine before coming to a decision. "Say I do decide to trust you? Why me?"

"You my child descend from a powerful line. Your magical potential serves my potential."

"How do you know this? How do you happen to know something no one else in Equestria knows?" she demand as the being before her began to take shape.

The features of his fur took on an orange-autumn shade with his facial, neck, and chest fur taking on a ashen-gray white appearance. His features became more vulpine, but what stood out was his multiple tails that swayed behind him. "Now my dear child surely you are aware that Celestia and Luna are not the only deity level beings in this world. As for what I embody….well I am…"


The start of a brand new day.

The moon had descended as the sun rose gracefully to continue its spot continuing the never ending cycle.

Their daily duties complete for now, the two sisters began their descent from the towers to a private dining room. The sister dismissed the collection of guards ponies who saluted and returned to their barracks to be replaced by the day guards.

"Good morning Lulu. I hope everything has been going well?

Luna rubbed her eyes in exhaustion and frustration. "Sister your patience is even greater than that of mother Marea. If I hear one more time wasting whine or complaint I will see to it a law wasting a Princess's time passes to which the punishment is flogging."

Celestia gave her sister a look of morbid disapproval. "Now Lulu you are overreacting."

"Well I would have them cover in sap and let the insects have at them, but somepony went on about how it was not hygienic." Luna shook her head. "I suppose having to clean up the sap each time was a bit burdersome for the cleaning budget."

The princesses continued to catch up, ignoring the guards following behind them.

Two of the guards were rather new additions to this current collection thanks to rearrangements and a few early promotions as a result of the last invasion. These two were Earthy Defender and Vivid Protector who like all the guards were wearing enchanted armor that gave them a sense of anonymity.

Earthy like most of the guys from their squad knew about Vivid's infatuation with Princess Celestia. In fact even now he was making it a point to tease his friend who was looking at him aghast from his eye leading gestures to those magnificent asses before them.

Vivid couldn't help himself from stealing small peeks at Celestia and looking away in shame.

Celestia and Luna all the while catching up as they made their way to the dining room.

They sat down, still talking as the servants populated the table with a large breakfast. They began discussing the political matters of the day.

While Celestia was happily enjoying those flaky, heavenly biscuits Luna took notice of something that caught her interest. The guard that was stealing glances at her sister was anything but subtle.

Moving only her eyes she looked at the reflections of the mirrors along the area. These mirrors were enchanted by her and Celestia allowing them to magnify the image being viewed without alerting anypony to what was happening. One could never be too careful after all.

Celestia must have noticed Luna's attention diverting and she too decided to see what was so interesting.

"Earthy Defender is there something you find interesting about your fellow guard?" Celestia had turned around and was looking at the guard. The Sun Princess was a master of the many forms of smile.

"N-no your highness, I thought I saw something out of the corner of my eye. Just my mind playing tricks on me."

The stammer. Facial expression. Heart beat increase.

Celestia allowed herself a look of slight disappointment. "I set a high standard for my Guards Earthy Defender. I do hope this will not be a common issue."

"Of course not, Princess." Earthy visibly steadied himself under the white alicorn's strong but gentle gaze.

"Excellent," Celestia responded, smiling warmly. The Solar Princess turned back to her sister, her smile transforming into a devious smirk. Luna knew all too well what this meant for the poor guard. Kind her sister may be, but she could be unforgiving when it came to unprofessional-ism or bullying.

"Well sister I will not keep you too much longer. We both have to continue our duties." Then speaking in a lower volume Luna added. "Try not to rough up this one too badly sister. We need what we can get right now." Luna added her expression utterly bemused.

"As you are one to talk Lulu. Seeing as you have made it a game to draw the attention of my guard using your wiles." Celestia responded only mildly irritated in her response.

"I have no idea what you are talking about sister." Luna replied innocently as her eyes carried a mischievous twinkle.

As Luna made her exit she turned, beckoning her guards to follow and trotting back down the hallway toward the throne room her hips swaying entirely too much to be accidental, practically daring the guards to look.

The fact that most of them for the fraction of the second had to fight against the impulse and regained focus either spoke highly of Luna's seductiveness or poorly of their will power.

Celestia repressed the desire to roll her eyes. While a good segment of the population had come to see her as mom there was a rather large sect of ponies who found her sister's 'dark and edgy' nature alluring. Celestia made a mental note to have the members of her guard who failed to keep their composure to receive extra training on how to handle such situations in the future.

And then…and then….well she wasn't training Trixie today and she had caught up with the paperwork so what to do?

That's when an idea crossed her mind. Today was going to be magnificent.
