One month later, in the capital of Ereagilum kingdom.

"All outer outposts have fallen. Our garrisons have been shattered and are fleeing our way. Both Aavoz'bvlg and Geneak have fallen to the invading armies from the north." A general reports frantically to the king before an officer runs in frantically.

"Your majesty, reinforcements from the Crosuba Dynasty were intercepted and turn away with heavy losses. We are on our own." The officer frantically reports.

The king pounds his throne with a hoof. "Damn. What do we have left?"

Before any could answer, a new officer rushes in and bows, looking horrified and not speaking.

"Well?" The king asks impatiently.

"Sir, he's outside the city, ready to besiege." The officer says as the horrified look from him spread to all as they hadn't finished making ready for a siege.

"How how did he and his army get there?! Did they use magic to spirit themselves there!?" The king roars in anger at the officer.

"No, the guards on the walls were under an illusion spell. They didn't even realize it." The officer reports.

"Damn! Damn! Damn!" The king yells in frustration.

"Your majesty! They have surrounded the city. What are your orders?" The officer asks.

"Get to the walls hold them!" The majesty yells, throwing anything he could get his hoofs on.

"Yes, sir!" They all yelled back as they cover themselves with their hooves and try to run out.

"Completely overrun years of planning and preparation for nothing!" He calls, throwing something else.

"What a bratty stallion." He suddenly hears and turns and stops as he stares at the deep eyes that entrance him.

"Who the devil are you!?" The king demands.

"Your new mistress." Vinyl says grinning as she opens her eyes wider.

"You don't get to decide th…" The king was suddenly stopped and pulled into the air.

"You were saying?" Vinyl asks smirking

"Let's us go before one of them comes to see him." Raven says holding him in the air with her magic.

Vinyl nods. "I'm so excited." She says as they run off and teleport away.

"Sir, they are not firing arrows. Why is that?" An officer asks before Sky pulls off his helmet as his smirk was huge, looking up as his army either scaled the walls or battered the gate.

"Someone has sabotaged their bows!" Sky declared.

"Continue as planned sir?" The officer asks looking to the wall.

"Redouble the effort. Take those walls then have the archers set up after you clear a path." Sky orders.

"Sir!" The officer yells running off with his group.

'Who did this, Raven or Vinyl?' Sky thinks.

"Well, now it looks like I lose the bet." Zora says.

"You may have…what bet?" Sky asks looking back at her

"That it would be this easy to start." Zora reminds.

"Well, I'm always full of surprises." Sky says proudly.

"Yeah, yeah. Don't get a big head, my husband." Zora instructs.

"I try and excel at that." Sky says chuckling.

"Don't make me bonk you." Zora instructs.

Sky chuckles. "All right. I'll end it."

"So the reason you aren't making them all ram the gates is because taking those will bottleneck our troops and make it an all out melee." Zora says watching the battle as the defenders were still dropping rocks and everything else they could, trying to hold Sky's army back.

"Exactly and no matter how strong they are, they can't hold off an assault without shooting arrows while we do. Order the catapults nearest us to prioritize the section of the wall to the right of our army climbing up." Sky orders.

"Yes, Overlord." Zora says calling out and relaying the orders.

"With this, we have conquered the first kingdom and with this, the signal is sent. Now you three, your turn." Sky says looking to the sky as the first of his army made it onto the walls.

Meanwhile, in the kingdom of Trimore.

"Your majesty, the king of the north has invaded. Ereagilum all but flies his colors." A messenger yells running in.

Spitfire sighs as she looks up. "So he finally made his move. Great."

"This is it. Order our army to march on Apulia now we are finishing our rivals." The 'king' orders.

Meanwhile, in the Etrelux Kingdom.

"Your majesty. Erahilum has fallen to the king of the north." A messenger reports coming in.

"Are you sure?" The king asks.

"They are flying his colors." The messenger says shaking his head.

"Then move on to Den To now!" The king orders.

"This might be trouble." Shadow says nearby.

"He has invaded like he said he would. It has taken years of waiting but finally he has come through and while all the others look to him, we will hit others." The king says.

Meanwhile, in the Hurricane Dynasty.

"Lady Rainbow. The king of the north has invaded. Etrelux has fallen." A messenger reports.

"Great." Rainbow says happily.

"Lady, should we now launch our plans on invading Catanzaro?" A messenger asks.

"Yes. Do it. We might as well seeing as the attention is on him." Rainbow says frowning.

"You heard the lady!" A warrior yells.

'About damn time. I don't like being made to wait.' Rainbow thinks frowning.

"Now where to go now? Zagreb or Galatia?" Sky say thinking.

"Whichever gives the best foothold." Zora says looking at a map.

"Well, that depends. We want to get further into the providence or do we want to secure the entire border?" Sky asks.

"We need to start from the border and work our way down." Zora says putting the map on the table.

"Well put. But they will expect that and while we do that, those in Galatia to the south of us will move up and hit us in a pincer, but what they won't expect is us dividing our forces and hitting them from both at once. Someone get me a Dark Moon Knight!" Sky calls.

A head peeks around the tent flap to the entrance. "Yes, Overlord?"

"I want you to take all of those of your order still fit for war and head to Galatia." Sky orders.

"Yes, sir." She says saluting before heading off.

"Now while they conquer Galatia, we head south to Zagreb where we will face them in a large open field battle. They all don't know it yet, but our borders we conquered are already secured. Our allies are already moving out and taking fiefs." Sky informs.

"And making strides. We are moving faster than usual." Zora says looking to him.

"Normally I wouldn't. I would be a lot more cautious, but I have many advantages and tricks up my sleeve. All of you can go and retire for the night." Sky says.

Zora nods and walks out with the rest of the officers as they seem to be sleepy.

"You can come out now." Sky instructs.

"How did you know?" Vinyl asks coming from the ceiling

"I didn't, but I had a feeling you would be here. You sabotage all the bows in the capital and the king was never found." Sky says.

"Oh…that. Yeah." Vinyl says smiling.

"What did you do with the king? Kill him and drain his blood?" Sky asks.

"Nope. I got more staff." Vinyl says grinning.

"What did you do to him?" Sky asks.

"My servant." Vinyl says crossing her hooves.

"You did what? I had Raven do to that hunter." Sky questioned.

Vinyl nods. "I figure I am liable to have more slaves."

"Don't you mean attendants?" Sky asks.

"Eh. At least I won't be lonely." Vinyl says shrugging.

"Have you already done that?" Sky asks.

"Nope. Nothing yet." Vinyl says before looking back to the mare. "You doing okay?"

Raven nods as Sky walks up to both of them. "So what are you up to next?" Sky asks.

"Nothing much other than going to train…both her and ourselves." Raven says shrugging.

"Raven, I thought you were going to help me in the war. Those mages that are with us, they keep rebuking my orders without you here." Sky says.

Raven hums. "I will only help bit by bit with her. For now, I'm with you."

"And what about you V? Will you stick around?" Sky asks leaning on Vinyl.

"Have to lead my kind." Vinyl says waving a hoof.

"Oh come on, you don't want to spend any time with me?" Sky asks smirking.

"Do I have to in this time of war?" Vinyl asks tapping her chin.

"We aren't moving out till tomorrow. So spending the night with me and Raven won't hurt." Sai says as Vinyl laid on his back now.

"If you can fuck harder than you talk and swing." Vinyl challenges.

"Oh, that reminds me." Sky says moving to the tent entrance and whistles.

They look over and sees ponies walk in dressed like maids. "Maid fetish?" Vinyl asks looking down to Sky.

"No, these five are my maids. Girls, this one is a very important ally." Sky informs.

They all bow at that. "Mistress."

"And what do you think of that?" Sky asks looking to her.

"Cool." Vinyl says grinning. "I'm going to have so much fun."

"Now girls, go fetch dinner." Sky orders.

"Yes, master." They all say as they back away and walk off.

"Now tell me, any chance of me getting lucky tonight with you in this current noise proof tent?" Sky asks.

"Only if you can make a few-thousand-year-old vampire scream for pleasure." Vinyl says grinning.

"I think I can handle it with a flank like that." Sky says smirking.

Vinyl chuckles. "You're on you virile young sexy handsome stallion. Yes, I know you're young."

"Never kept that a secret." Sky says smirking.

"Then you think you can call upon that young stamina again? I assume you would since you fucked all these mares." Vinyl says chuckling.

"All but one. She isn't ready for that step." Sky informs.

"Then let's get going. I haven't had a good fuck in a long while." Vinyl says laying back down on his back.

"The bed is right there." Sky informs.

"So how did you enjoy last night?" Sky asks getting dressed in his armor.

Vinyl hums in happiness as she climbs on top of the sleeping body. "So good."

"You regret siding with me now?" Sky asks.

"No objection." Vinyl says with her tongue sticking out.

"So tell me, in the month it took me to conquer three fiefs, how has the training of your first attendant progressed?" Sky asks.

Vinyl slowly points a hoof to the side of the tent and he looks to see the mare sleeping on the wall of the tent as it seems Vinyl tied up her limbs to spread them out and show her off. "Sexy, ain't she?"

"Will the former hunter obey you yet?" Sky asks.

"About too. And it looks like she enjoyed the show." Vinyl says chuckling as she spies the wet ground under the hunter.

"Just remember, when you finish training her that we have a threeway." Sky informs.

"Oh, we will and since I can't give her a foal, it will be your job to make sure she has a little bundle in her." Vinyl says grinning.

"You best head out we are going to be packing the camp up soon." Sky informs.

Vinyl nods. "Good. Finally, we make more moves."

"So tell me, what do the other vampires think of this alliance of ours?" Sky asks.

"They think it's beneficial. As long as you supply us with blood, we will be fine." Vinyl says sighing.

"Remind them if there is a rebellion against me, I am not above killing any of them." Sky says nearly turning Vinyl on again.

"Relax. You already fucked me. I want more and I cannot get that if they all turned on you." Vinyl says chuckling.

"If they do rebel, it will also be against you." Sky says as she notices the hunter's artifact on his hoof's armor.

"At least you took it off for the night." Vinyl says laying her head down.

"Before I made you scream from doing your flank." Sky teases.

Vinyl giggles. "Will you do it again?"

"Will you give me a foal if I do?" Sky teases.

Vinyl hums. "I don't know. I'm an old tired mare. I don't know if it still works." She mocks in an old voice.

"Then maybe I won't take you again." Sky says matching her tone.

Vinyl groans dramatically. "Then where's the fun? I would rather leave and find something else to fuck…griffons seem like a good candidate." She says in a normal voice at the end.

"Got one of those." Sky informs.

Vinyl looks to him. "Sexy or handsome griffon?"

"Slave griffoness, like her." Sky inform gesturing to the sleeping future attendant.

Vinyl grins. "Do you have a diamond dog? Dragon?"

"Not yet. The diamond dogs usually keep to the Carthaginensis providence…now that I think about it, with your knight order, could you have them continue east after conquering Galatia and either get the diamond dog tribe Ruby picks to join or subjugate them?" Sky asks.

"I think they can handle that." Vinyl says grinning at his thoughts.

"I would prefer for them to join us as if we have to subjugate. Then that will mean diverting fresh troops from the front to guard the border." Sky says think aloud.

"So don't do it yet until we are close to it." Vinyl advises.

"I'm leaving it to you. Just have your knights show this to my forces when requesting reinforcement for either to reinforce or occupy both areas." Sky says before giving her a silver emblem.

"Oh. Shiny." Vinyl says taking it.

"That is the wartime authority badge. It means you are following my orders. For each war, a new emblem will be made and only I will know the design for it is forged the night before we set out. So copies are hard to do at the start of the war, but as time goes on, more is needed to prove you are acting on my orders." Sky says.

Vinyl gives a mock salute. "Yes, sir."

"After the war, these symbols become a symbol of honor and of those who performed their duty."

Vinyl grins. "So can I have a big house in the end or a castle?"

"They are rewarded after the war and besides, I am your prize that includes all my personal fiefs and castles." Sky informs.

"So when this is over, will you fuck me in each and every one?" Vinyl asks giggling.

"Maybe I will." Sky says.

Vinyl giggles pervertly at that.

"Now tell me, have you changed the former king?" Sky asks.

Vinyl shrugs. "Raven's department."

"And she is here asleep so you tell me." Sky instructs.

"I don't know Raven's progress. She makes the spells. I make the body count." Vinyl says proudly.

"And I conquered you already." Sky jokes.

"Oh yeah, but this flank still needs to be taken over." Vinyl jokes along.

"Did that." Sky jokes.

"But don't you want to try a different way to take over? There are many plans." Vinyl says grinning.

"Oh, we will get there. After all, it is mine now." Sky whispers into her ear.

Vinyl giggles. "Why don't we spice it up next and use that sex book you have and try every single thing?"

"Maybe next time. Now go on before you get too excited." Sky instructs.

Vinyl giggles as she gets up and stretches. "Alright. Let's fuck them up."

"See you soon." Sky says before she walks over and grabs the tied up mare.

"Help…" She moans out as she was dragged.

"Raven." Sky says walking over and nudges her gently.

"Yes?" Raven moans bringing her head up.

"It's morning love. We will be moving out soon." Sky whispers into her ear gently.

Raven moans as she lays her head down again. "Want to sleep more."

"We have to move Raven. The camp is already waking up to strike it and move south." Sky whispers gently into her ear again.

"Okay." Raven says quietly as she tries to rest.

"You also have to see to your thousand mages love." Sky says.

Raven just moans as she reaches out and grabs him and climbs onto his back.

"Alright, you may ride for a bit." Sky says putting on his helmet.

Raven hums as she smiles and wraps her hooves around his neck.

"So are they falling in line?" Sky asks as the army finishes loading everything.

"Yes. They are ready to make a move on your orders." Zora says standing nearby.

"And your thousand mages Raven?" Sky asks.

"They are also ready." Raven says reading a scroll.

"Will they give us any more trouble?" Sky asks.

"No. They are listening to us at least. You…they are hesitant, but they will listen."

"Better than not at all I guess. Alright, everyone, we are marching south now!" Sky orders.

The whole army started to move in formation and even get into the formation as Sky and the others watches. "This is going to be Tartous in real life." Zora says.

"It has been for centuries now. We aim to end it. Don't forget that." Sky reminds.

"Let's hope the citizens don't make it so behind us." Raven reminds.

"They won't. Libya is so used to wars that most just see it as sending taxes to local lords as another chore. They mostly don't really care if you treat them well enough." Sky informs.

"So if we march into town, they don't care jack?" Zora asks.

"No. That is the last thing we do. We remain outside and we will not trample their field. That is just counter productive. Also, anything we take, we pay for." Sky informs.

"Strange way have a war." Raven voiced.

"And why do you think I have so few rebellions?" Sky points out.

"Still you are strange." Raven says smiling a bit.

"Now we should be able to make it to Zagreb before nightfall." Sky says.

"And what then?" Zora asks.

"They know we are coming either after them or to the east. So they will be moving to engage us as soon as they are sure which one we are committed to. So as soon as we enter Zagreb we will build a defensive camp." Sky informs.

"And if they are wrong?" Raven asks.

"They are not fools and they know we are coming after them. They have shown they are against us when they sent reinforcements to Ereagilum, but they were routed by our ambush we set for anyone coming to reinforce the capital from the southeast." Sky informs.

"Then we still need to be careful. Otherwise a few might slip through." Zora warns.

"I know, but they also won't leave Zagreb unguarded. This is the breadbox of Crosuba Dynasty. We take this, we take most of their grain fields and as such, this is where the largest garrison of defender of Crosuba Dynasty fief and that is before they starting levying troops." Sky informs.

"How long before they might react?" Raven warns.

"Like I said, they are most likely waiting to see what we do and then act on it." Sky informs.

"Then maybe we should give a misleading action." Zora suggested.

"I already put a plan in motion. Tell me, who is missing from our formation?" Sky asks.

"The dark moon knights." Zora immediately says.

"Correct. I have split our forces. They will take the less defend Galatia and take the entire border fiefs for us while we move deeper in and gain a foothold further in the providence." Sky informs.

"So walling off?" Raven asks.

"Yes. I will be putting you in charge of that Zora as you have shown to be better at designing fortifications and defensive warfare than I am so far." Sky informs.

Zora smiles a bit proudly. "Good. I'll see what I can draw up."

"Alright. We keep going for a few more hours. Tonight is a full moon and there are no signs of clouds so we will be able to start preparing a camp." Sky says as they continue marching after stopping and asking what fief they were in from a homestead.

"It's strange, though. You are making this big ambition and others usually try to just take over one fief and be over with it." Raven says looking to him.

"You want to know why I do this?" Sky asks knowing some of his soldiers were listening in now.

"Yes, I do. It would help seeing as I am the communicator between the magicians and you." Raven says shrugging.

"I traveled around this continent for three years as a mercenary and you know what I found?" Sky asks.

"No. What?" Raven asks as some of the soldiers turn to them.

"Ponies, griffons, diamond dogs, dragons, and others starving from their fields trampled and destroyed by war. Corruption, greed, and devastation. It has to come to an end if this continent's population is to have a future." Sky informs.

"And you think you can do this?" Raven asks with an eyebrow raised.

"I don't know, but I have to try and I know I can't do it alone." Sky says.

"Then let's find out." Raven says smiling.
