“With this half, Celtica is under our control.” Sky says looking over a map.

“Overlord, something has been bothering me. Why take Celtica now?” Twilight asks getting the whole council to look at her. “I mean, Celtica mostly exports fish and some other resources, albeit in small numbers, so why now?”

“It’s not the resources themselves I am after right now with this campaign.” Sky says after the entire meeting went quiet.

“Then what are you after?” Twilight asks, raising an eyebrow.

“The land trade route.” Sky says, confusing all of them completely.

“What trade route?” Twilight asks.

“The one to here.” Sky says, pointing to the country outside the borders. The republic of Griffon stone.

“But there is none.” Twilight points out.

“Not yet, but when I own all of it and approach the republic here with the idea, they will most likely accept and, with it, a new source of revenue for us and it will show my legitimacy of becoming the ruler of all the provinces, forging it into a true kingdom.” Sky informs.

‘Bold.’ Twilight thinks as the whole room was silent at this.

“Not only that they rent out most of their military as mercenaries as well, so with a trade deal, we will also be able to hire them and increase our troop numbers. Unlike the fool on the throne between us, I will do business.” Sky says.

“Fool on throne…” Twilight asks herself.

“The one on the Lundberg throne. He refuses to do business with them as they won’t obey him and pay taxes to him. He obviously wants to rule them, but they ain’t having it and, unlike us, they are a united country.” Sky says.

“So what’s the plan?” Rainbow asks.

“We link up with the rest of our forces and move on Malaga. We will ignore the school and Molina for now. Even though it is arguably the most profitable fief, they are still neutral in this war.” Sky says.

“Understandable.” Vinyl says leaning on a hoof.

“Now then, do all you can to heal our wounded.” Sky says starting to walk away, no one missing he hadn’t fully recovered either.

Twilight immediately follows and finds him leaning on the wall a bit away from the door to the meeting room. “Sky.”

“I’m fine. Just need to rest for a few more days.” Sky says.

“Sky.” Twilight says worriedly.

“This will be a test of my skills as a leader. As a general, I am average at best. I need to outsmart them. Somehow sow dissent maybe…no. Not enough changeling population from the war with them and would have needed to send them ahead to integrate. The vampires maybe…no. Would recognize signs and send for vampire hunters.” Sky says taking a seat on a bench, trying to think of a clever plan.

Twilight sits with him and leans her head against him carefully. “You can do it.”

“Every time I went into a campaign, I had some advantage I could exploit. The tribes disunified and I had the salamanders. Gual also disunified, but had an ally as well. Libya had three strong allies that controlled nearly half of the providence and the vampires helping, and the changeling invasion, I knew what to expect with the changelings and how to smoke them out. They couldn’t stand up to a straight up fight they rely on stealth, infiltration, and sabotage. Heck, even with this part of the campaign, I knew how to get them to fight me, how I wanted them to get in the first fief and the second, I had a large enough force to take both fiefs.” Sky says.

“And this one?” Twilight asks.

“I have no clever plans or big advantages to exploit this time. It will be a battle with them or they will hit us with never-ending guerilla tactics if I try and egg them into attacking a fort or a place of my choosing as none of the warlords would wait for another.” Sky says, sighing.

“You’re afraid, aren’t you?” Twilight asks, still worried.

“No, but I know many of my soldiers will die in this final part. The part I dreaded from the beginning.” Sky says.

“Shh, it’s ok.” Twilight says petting him. “Would me in your bed help you?”

Sky smiles a bit. “Might give me ideas my smart mare.”

“March!” Sky orders the army forward, having remerged both halves after the garrisons had arrived, but by then, word had already spread to Lundberg’s court that they were coming.

Lundberg, it hadn’t been ideal in the month of waiting as the king mustered many of his warlords and set out to meet Sky’s army in open battle. They met on the open plains in Malaga where the first battle would be fought. Sky near sixty-four thousand to the seventy-five thousand. Both armies fought long and hard with Sky’s forces, using what was now known as the crimson wing formation that Sky originally used to destroy the prince of Libya at Troyes. The Lundberg army, on the contrary, charged not in a formation, but as a thousand different groups of soldiers, eager to crush a foe they thought inferior to them. It was a disaster for them. Because of their lack of formation and unity, Lundberg’s casualties were nearly forty thousand, including many of the warlords. On the contrary, Sky’s army suffered barely four thousand losses, though much more were injured. Despite this victory though, Sky didn’t celebrate. He knew that there were not as many warlords as what his spies had told him there were in Lundberg. It was obvious to him that there were more still yet to fight and with this loss, the soldiers would look for a someone to rally behind on the battlefield and fulfill Sky’s greatest fear from them, a combined front.

“This isn’t working.” Twilight says, looking at the map.

“I know, come on, think. There must be something we can do.” Sky says, looking at the map once more, bordering not one, but two enemy fiefs. No matter which way his army went, they would be flanked and the splitting the army tactic was out of the question with the numbers that would be brought to bear against one of them should they split up.

“Maybe pull back and go another direction?” Twilight suggested.

“We can’t. The only other way is through archmage Luna’s fief and I’m not doing that.” Sky says as a messenger rides up to them.

“My lord, lady, Bloom has returned.” A soldier informs.

“Ah, good. Bring her to my tent.” Sky says nodding.

“Yes my lord.” The officer says.

“In total, we still have around fifty-nine thousand and four hundred still remaining.” Sky says.

“And we have left…?” Twilight asks worriedly.

“That is who we have left. We lost more than five thousand so far with our medics working overtime.” Sky informs.

“So…no big plan?” Twilight says very worriedly.

“I am trying and running over things in my head, but no matter what happens, we are going to get hit hard.” Sky says.

“Well, there must be something.” Twilight says, trying to think of plans herself.

“Hum…instead of direct assaults, what if we send some of our troops behind enemy lines and start causing chaos and sabotage in Silves fief?” Sky asks thinking it over.

“Then it would be a bit more dangerous as it is new land.” Bloom says walking in and looking over his wounds.

“Yes, but that would also give them something to worry about, thinking that we are invading from that direction.” Sky informs.

Bloom hums as she walks over and then hugs him. “How bad?”

“My wounds or the rampage?” Sky asks.

Bloom lightly runs a hoof across his wounds. “Both.”

“My wounds have healed and widespread giving off the illusion of a large presence.” Sky says.

Bloom and leans her head on him. “What happened with the ambush?”

“They took us completely by surprise. I never considered it.” Sky informs.

“You are never leaving without one of us again. My sister is worried when they got the news.” Bloom says nuzzling him.

“Don’t worry. Now get me the Stabbing Fighters, Mace Soldier, Sneaking Gallopers, Hacking Axes, and Cleaving Destroyers regiments for this.” Sky instructs.

Bloom nods and leaves.

“Not you.” Sky says grabbing her.

The officers look to each other before one of them leaves.

“With them and the mercenaries going to distract them, we will make a push,” Sky says looking to Twilight and Bloom as they sat together in his tent as Sky had dismissed all his officers for the night.

“And this will maybe win us the fight?” Twilight asks worriedly.

“Maybe, maybe not. Depends on the results. Now, shall we have some fun?” Sky asks.

“Fun?” Bloom asks raising an eyebrow. “You were just injured and in an ambush and before a big battle and you want to bed us?”

“My injuries have healed, besides, you didn’t say no just now.” Sky says.

“I am still worried.” Bloom says frowning.

“Let me ease those worries.” Sky says walking over to them.

“Um…” Twilight says as she backs up slightly.

“Oh come on, it isn’t like we haven’t done this before.” Sky says.

“That was just me being afraid. I’m better now.” Twilight argues.

“Really?” Sky asks.

“Yes.” Twilight kept arguing.

“So you wouldn’t want to do it again?” Sky asks.

“No…that was just a one-time thing.” Twilight says, mostly to herself.

“Nope. You sleep with him. You’re his.” Bloom informs.

“Who’s side are you on?” Twilight asks glaring turning to her.

“The side going second.” Bloom says.

Twilight growls to herself and Sky wraps a hoof around her and grins to her. “Shut up.”

“Shh. It’s ok. Now come on, bed awaits.” Sky says before kissing her.

Bloom smiles greatly as she watches Sky pull Twilight back to the bed. She walks over and keeps watching as Sky pushes Twilight onto the bed and keeps kissing her as she climbs onto the bed beside them.

Twilight squeaks and moans as she holds onto Sky now as he moves her around a bit before mounting her. Twilight moans softly as she felt him move slowly up close to her. Sky grins into the kiss and kept her pinned slightly and slowly pushes into her, making her moan loudly into the kiss. Bloom smiles as she watches Sky start to thrust into Twilight and watches the connection between them.

Twilight gasps and moan as she kept her hooves around Sky and moves her hips to meet his as she felt him push deep into her. The throbbing heat shaking through her as Bloom rubs a hoof across Twilight’s flank, making her shiver as she kept watching Sky’s thrusting cock as it smacks into Twilight and starts to hear it. Bloom grins slightly and leans over and grabs Sky’s head and pulls him away a bit and kisses him as Twilight was let go and starts to gasp loudly with each hit.

Sky kept kissing Bloom as he hears Twilight gasp and moan under him as he kept doing his best to keep moving into her as he hits deep into her, trying to make sure to release as much as he can as he wraps a hoof around Bloom and pulls her close and keeps kissing her before moving down to her neck and kisses and nips her there, making her match Twilight’s moans and yelps.

Twilight moans loudly as she tries to push her hooves against Sky’s chest, but starts to feel Sky throbbing heavily and whimpers as she felt it deep inside her before he stops for a bit and then thrusts deep into her and makes her cry out as he doesn’t move and keeps himself against before Twilight moans deeply as she felt the warm cum pour into her.

Bloom smiles as she hugs Sky and hears the satisfied moans from Twilight before Sky slowly pulls out of her and makes her squeak as he stops kissing and nipping Bloom for a moment and puts Twilight off to the side before pouncing on Bloom and mounts her quickly. Not wasting time, he quickly thrusts into her, making Bloom moans happily under him as she wiggles her flanks to encourage him.

Twilight tiredly looks over and sees Sky on top of Bloom as Sky had his teeth around Bloom’s neck and biting onto it as Bloom kept moaning and pushing her flank back into his thrusting length. Trying to keep her eyes open, she kept watching as Bloom shakes and wiggles underneath him, feeling the heavy thrusting length pound into her. Hearing the heavy breathing from Sky and loud happy moans from Bloom, she can see Sky throb as he pulls out of Bloom before pushing back in just as quick and soon stops. Bloom almost screams loudly as Twilight can hear Sky grunt and some cum leak out of Bloom’s cunt, splattering the bed before Sky grabs Bloom around the stomach and flips them over so Sky is on his back and Bloom is on top of him as he lays by Twilight.

Twilight starts to close her eyes as she felt Sky’s hoof pet her head and lull her to sleep as she hears Bloom moaning and some wet splattering before a shift in the bed told her Bloom is now resting beside Sky on the other side.

“Are…we going to…win?” Twilight asks, about to fall asleep.

“There are no certainties.” Sky says.

“I’m…sorry…for hating…you…” Twilight says before snoring quietly.

“Don’t worry, but be prepared. You will be a mother.” Sky informs.

Twilight mumbled as she falls asleep and Bloom puts her head onto his chest and falls asleep with her.

“Who is a good mare?” Sky asks smirking.

“Me…” Bloom says playfully.

“Who loves me doing her nice big and tight flank?” Sky asks.

“Me…” Bloom smiles and nuzzles him.

“Who has been trying to hide her sister is pregnant with my foal?” Sky asks.

“How did you know that?” Bloom asks grinning.

“You left the letter on the table and you know what you are next.” Sky informs.

Bloom rolls her eyes under her eyelids. “Yeah, yeah.”

“With twins.” Sky adds smirking.

Bloom smiles greatly. “Yeah…”

“You like the thought, don’t you?” Sky asks before spanking her.

Bloom squeaks and shakes her flank lightly. “Yeah.”

“You are a very naughty mare, aren’t you?” Sky asks.

Bloom hums. “Just a smart mare who knows how to turn your ass around and make you scream and run.”

“Oh, look who thinks she is on top now.” Sky says before mounting her flank.

Bloom squeaks and pushes him off. “Stop. We already went.”

“Shh.” Sky whispers into her ear as he messes with her nipple.

Bloom moans and looks toward Twilight sleeping. “And her?”

“She didn’t get uppity with me.” Sky whispers, smirking all the while.

“Because she hasn’t been used to it.” Bloom retorted.

“We both know you love it.” Sky says thrusting into her.

“You know what, I got an idea. If you can beat me at my choice of game while doing this, I’ll give you a free night if you win.” Bloom offers before moaning.

“I already have. As you are panting like a dog.” Sky points out.

“No…a strategy game.” Bloom tries to say through her heavy panting.

“Later.” Sky instructs as he kept working her.

Bloom moans and pushes her flank back against him. “Bastard.”

“Submit.” Sky says smirking.

Bloom gasps heavily and tries to look at him. “I am already taking on the care for your foals.”

“Submit for me at this moment.” Sky whispers to her.

Bloom moans and her whole body starts to become slack as she cums onto him and glares a bit. “You still…are young.”

“So are you.” Sky reminds cumming in her.

Bloom moans as she cums again so quickly and keeps herself against him. “Damn…just remember…you need the others…” She says before collapsing under him and falls immediately to sleep.

“Damn it! Where is the one who commanded the attack?!” The Lundberg king demands.

“They perished in the battle, my lord.” An advisor informs.

“Then where is the head?” The lord demands.

“Couldn’t be recovered.” The advisor informs.

“Fine. I will desecrate his tomb later. For now, summon all the warlords.” The king orders.

“Yes my lord.” The advisor says before walking off.

“So my little mage, how are you this morning?” Sky asks.

“Uhg…” Twilight groans as she curls up.

“You alright?” Sky asks petting her.

Twilight groans as she turns over to face him. “I…hate…you…”

“No, you don’t.” Sky says.

Twilight huffs as she drops her head onto the pillow.

“How about you my strategist?” Sky asks.

Bloom softly moans and curls up against his back. “Great as always.” She whispers in his ear tiredly.

“My Rainbow queen?” Sky asks.

Rainbow huffs as she laid on the bed by herself a bit away.

“Rainbow.” Sky says in a sing-song voice before brushing her back with his wing.

Rainbow shivers and shakes off his wing.

“Come on. Say how you feel.” Sky says continuing to do it.

Rainbow opens her eyes and rolls them. “Fine. You were fine.”

“I mean how do you feel right now.” Sky informs.

“Fine.” Rainbow says again.

“Good and last but most certainly not least, my white vampire queen.” Sky says looking towards the snoring white mare.

“She’s asleep.” Bloom says snuggling into his back.

“Vampires do sleep during the day.” Twilight says.

Sky smiles as he pets Vinyl’s mane and makes her purr.

“Who’s a good queen?” Sky asks.

Vinyl hisses and leaps over and latches onto him, snuggling into him like a cat.

“Morning.” Sky says smirking.

“Poofy.” Vinyl mumbles.

“Rainbow, do me a favor and smack her flank.” Sky requests.

Rainbow smirks and brings a hoof up before slapping Vinyl’s flank, making her hiss loudly and jump into the air holding her flank.

“Thank you.” Sky says before Vinyl landed beside him.

“You guys suck.” Vinyl says frowning to them.

“You are a deep sleeper my vampire queen.” Sky says smirking.

“I need my beauty sleep.” Vinyl says rolling her eyes.

“And I need my wives. Besides, you have to go or you will miss out on the blood from them making breakfast.” Sky says.

Vinyl blinks and messes up the bed as she tries to run and rushes out the door.

“Sky, relax. We can win this.” Rainbow says going over and hugs him seeing how his appearance was messed up more than it should be.

Sky hums as he hugs her back and rubs at where the healed injury is.

“We are good. We do need to move up though.” Bloom advises.

“Which is why we are going to relocate and think about a more proper plan. The usual get in and intimidate is now over. Now we need a more proper planning done.” Sky says frowning.

“We also should proceed with caution as we are on their turf.” Twilight says.

Sky nods. “Bloom?”

“She isn’t wrong. I am also curious. I heard one of the warlords has an elite wolf cavalry.” Bloom says.

“Real wolves or a knight group?” Sky asks as he looks back at her.

“Real wolves.” Vinyl says.

Sky hums. “And they respond to alphas.”

“I never bothered with the details.” Vinyl informs.

Sky nods before looking to her confused. “I thought you left.”

“I heard you were worried. Come here and let me make it all better.” Vinyl says teasing.

Sky smiles and runs a hoof along her flank. “I know where you can start.”

“No. Sky, you have played enough. Now time to see to the army.” Rainbow instructs.

Sky smiles to her. “Oh, then I do you as we go to meet them and finish up before they see us.”

“No.” Rainbow says going into general mode.

Sky smirks and picks up Vinyl and holds her up to Rainbow. “Vinyl. I command you to snuggle the general.”

“I’m game.” Vinyl says smirking.

“Back off.” Rainbow says backing away.

“Ok. Enough teasing her Sky. You have duties to see to.” Bloom says as Twilight was now reading a book.

Sky smiles and hugs Vinyl and nuzzles her neck and makes her laugh. “Alright. One last snuggle.”

“Then you will eat. It hasn’t escaped me you have been neglecting that.” Vinyl informs.

Sky sighs against her coat and makes a hot breath wash onto her neck. “That injury taught me some things. I can see what the soldiers talk about. Twi, you don’t need to worry. I am ok.” Sky reassures.

“I am not worried.” Twilight says as she buries her head into the book.

“Yes. You are my wife.” Sky says making her stop mid page turn.

Twilight stayed in that position as everyone starts to get up and dress.

“Did you break her?” Bloom asks.

Sky smiles. “No. Just making her realize where she is now.”

“…if I am your wife, I want a dress.” Twilight finally says.

“What color?” Sky asks.

“Purple.” Twilight says not looking at them.

“I will have it tailor-made for you after we finish.” Sky informs finishing putting on his armor.

Twilight didn’t say anymore as she listens to them and keeps trying to read.

“So…you have a tendency to plan out everything. Have you planned out how many foals you will have?” Sky asks.

Twilight eeps and freezes shocked in place.

“Well?” Sky asks.

“Um…uh…” Twilight stutters as she remembers her mother’s wish to have as many grandfoals as possible.

“Oh, that is right. I should inform you that your sister Gleaming will soon be a mother as well.” Sky informs.

“Wait. What?!” Twilight yells as she turns to him.

“She will soon be laying eggs as she is a queen changeling.” Sky informs.

“But…now?!” Twilight asks shocked that now her sister is having eggs.

“Well, think about it. After the war, many changelings died so they have to work overtime repopulating.” Sky informs.

“That is true.” Twilight says thinking about it.

“So…Twilight, where will you be? With the medical mares or with the mages that are on the front lines?” Sky asks.

Twilight lowers her ears at that. “Um…back.”

“Then help with the medical staff as much as possible.” Sky says.
