Intro for newbies
 
15 years ago, the disappearance of Princess Luna and Celestia threw Equestria into chaos. The Mane Six, once loyal friends, are now bitter enemies after Twilight Sparkle attempted a Forced Alicorn Transformation Spell (This was before she became an alicorn herself). The spell backfired and ended up killing Pinkie Pie and horribly scarring Rainbow Dash.
 
Now Equestria is Divided
 
Timeline for this who want more details for now this happened
 
Equestria is divided up among six factions.
 
House Moon and Star are Unicorn supremacists led by Archmagister Twilight Sparkle. Their capital is Canterlot.
 
House Earthborn is led by Supreme Commander Applejack. Their capital is Appleloosa.
 
House Whitegold is led by Mistress Rarity, their capital and only major city is Manehattan. Currently they’re “neutral” but provide mercenaries to whoever is willing to pay
 
House Stormwing is led by Force Commander Supreme Rainbow Dash. Their capital is Cloudsdale
 
House Everfree led by Lady Fluttershy, they have no true capital though they reside in the Everfree forest.
 
And finally the Cult Of Laughter led by the mysterious Laughing Mare. They have no capital but the cult is present in every major city.
 
(Anyone new to Equestria Divided PM me know which faction you like and I’ll link you information you’ll need. Everyone else knows the drill)

Ok! Now to talk about the thread proper. Unlike my past Equestria Divided RPs I want this one to be more…”cinematic” and by that I mean anyone is welcome to make walls of text of their character or characters doing something in the story or of their past. In short I want this to be more character driven, hence the Chronicles part. Also, in addition to a very small character card everyone is required to make an opening post with a paragraph of their character doing something before the events of Equestria Divded (You know when everything was nice and peaceful) and another of their character doing something during the events of Equestria Divided. This may sound confusing but I’ll make my own opening post and character card and show you what I mean so please stand by until I make my post.

Don’t know why I’m wasting time writing in this journal. I should be getting ready to go to the theater, today is my big day. The moment I’ve always waited for. I finally got the leading role for the play! …so why do my hooves keep shaking and why do I feel like I want to throw up? I guess it’s just my nerves. If I frick this up, I frick up my chances of ever getting a leading role again. I guess that’s why I’m writing this, to stall I guess. But I can’t be nervous up there, I have to pretend that I’m not nervous. I have to act. But hey, I’ve always been good at that. So I should probably stop wasting time writing in this stupid journal and just get to the theater! Destiny awaits!
 
After the play had ended, Clive sighed with relief as the curtains finally fell. He went to the dressing room and dressed out of his costume and into his usual clothes. He was relieved that he managed to get through the play without embarrassing himself, hr Didn’t thing he did good job though. He was about to leave when he was stopped by a familiar mare, Rarity. She had helped make some of the costumes, including his.
 
Rarity: Leaving so soon darling?
 
Clive: Yeah, no reason to stay.
 
Rarity: Oh but there is! Your colleagues are preparing to toast to your success!
 
Clive: Success? I just succeeded at not embarrassing myself, I don’t think I’ll win any awards for my performance though. It was mediocre at best.
 
Rarity: Nonsense darling! Your performance was phenomenal! If I didn’t know you before I would have mistaken you for the lead character Dawn Strider!
 
Clive: You’re too kind. I’m glad you thought I did good, truth is I always wanted to be Dawn Strider the Adventurer. I read all the news reports about him and even his autobiography. It was almost like an obsession…i probably knew more about him then his own mom. So….I guess when I went up there I became Dawn Strider. Weird right?
 
Rarity: Not at all darling! Just you watch, the critics are going to write raving reviews for your performance!
 
Clive: I hope so. Truth is I’m always anxious about the future.
 
Rarity: Don’t be darling, the future ahead of us is bright and full of hope!

15 years after the disappearance of the Royal Sisters
 
Another raid against the Cult of Laughter. We got a tip that they’re holding a rally of sorts at an old abandoned theater in the Undercity…I know the place well so I’ve been selected for this mission. I won’t be alone though, a nighthoof will be accompanying me. I hear he’s a new recruit so this will be his first real mission. Our mission will be to gather as much information as we can and clear the place out.
 
The sounds of rain could be heard as darkness clouded the Undercity. Two ponies stood guard by a door, their grinning faces illuminated by the faint glow of a lantern. A gust of wind gently blew past them and the lantern’s light dimmed and faded away. Followed by the sound two bodies hitting the ground and the door opening as two figures creep inside.
 
Nighthoof: Nice dagger, where’d you get it? He whispered
 
Clive: Got it whils doing business in Saddle Arabia. He said flatly as they walked further inside. They had entered through the back and walked through the dressing room. Clive look down and saw the moth eaten costume of Dawn Strider on the floor. So much for a hopeful future
 
The sound of footsteps and giggling could be heard as two cultists walked along the hallway
 
Nighthoof: How do you wanna handle this?
 
Clive: I got this…
 
Clive pulls out his crossbow and readied it. As one of the cultists came in sight he pressed the trigger and nailed the Cultist in the head and pinned him to the wall. The other Cultist looked at thejr fallen comrade but before he could react Clive snuck up behind and slit their throat with a knife and pushed them down
 
He pulled the bolt out of the dead Cultist and dragged it into the dressing room. After changing into their rags he looked to the Nighthoof
 
Clive: Get my stuff out of here, then start picking off the sentries surrounding the place and make sure all but one of the doors are barred.
 
Nighthoof: What are you gonna do?
 
Clive: Get information.
 
He said as he turned around and put on a goofy smile as he walked down the hallway, dragging a corpse of a Cultist behind him
 
The theater was packed with ponies, all smiling and giggling to themselves. On the stage was one pony, up above were hung corpses, all rotting and decaying and each with a smile on their face. Clive walked in and it took all his strength to keep his hooves from shaking and from puking at the sight of it all.
 
Cultist: My brothers and sisters! You’ve done well to bring us more corpses for our upcoming party! Those party poopers might have ruined our party with the laughing Dead once, but let’s see them ruin it again!
 
Clive walked towards the stage, dragging the corpse
 
Cultist: Ah! Another fine addition to our collection!
 
Clive walked onto the stage, still dragging the corpse. Only his smile slowly turned into a grin
 
Cultist: You look new! What’s your name?
 
Clive: Clive. I used to work here.
 
His Horn lit up and the corpse was ignited in flames. He then threw the flaming corpse to the Cultist who screamed in pain. Clive then looked to the crowd
 
Clive: You’ve all been a wonderful Audience, but I regret to say this will be my last performance here. But don’t worry I’ll end things with a bang.
 
*He then lit the curtains on fire as fire bombs Clive stuck the seats as he walked to the stage went off, many cultists were caught on fire as the whole theater started to fill with smoke. Clive dove for the back exit then slammed the door behind him and locked it. The Nighthoof waited for him.
 
Nighthoof: Damn! You lit the whole place up!!!
 
Clive: I’ll explain later. You did as I said yes?
 
Nighthoof: Yeah.
 
Banging on the door could be heard followed by screaming an smoke coming from under the door
 
The two then slowly walk away and leave as the whole theater is slowly engulfed in flames. As the two leave, Clive looked back and sighed.
 
Clive: Yeah…some future.
 
Nighthoof: What was that?
 
Clive: Nothing. Let’s go.
 
Nighthoof: You sure the fire won’t spread?
 
Clive: Let the fire ponies worry about that. Our mission is over.

“Nyeh Nyeh, can’t catch me!”
 
“no fair! you’re flying!”
 
“so?”
 
“I’m not a pegisis!”
 
“so it’s your dad’s fault?”
 
“come down here and say that again!”
 
“hehe, simmer down, shiny.”
 
“grr, i’ll show you simmer!”
 
with that last scream a firework-like spark shot from his horn and burnt off her tail.
 
needless to say that was the last exchange he had with the pegasus filly, or anyone in his hometown as he straight up booked it for the nearest train. being taken to canterlot by it he may have ended up another street kid if he hadn’t stumbled into a magic lab… and promptly melted the metal golem guarding it.
 
Master: “a pretty impressive amount of firepower young colt… and a pretty impressive amount of damage you caused to my work…”
 
Fireshine: “I’m sorry…”
 
“well, there’s no helping it, you’ll be helping me out… if only to make sure this is as much as you burn down here in canterlot.”
 
that day began his apprenticeship, one in which he excelled, learning quickly to hone his skills immensely, he might have made captain in the royal guard, if he knew when to not run his mouth. the constant success had made him rather prideful, arrogant even.
 

 
15 years after the disappearance of the sisters.
 
“and all reports have been confirmed?”
 
“there is no doubt sir.”
 
“then i will take care of this matter personally.”
 
the town they had talked about was a fairly small hamlet, having decided to throw in their lot with earthborn they had taken the plunge and took the blade to the horns of their unicorn population, and this called for someone to set the record straight again, after all the cantershire mountains belonged to the only real equestria.
 
he arrived a day later, at the head of a peacekeeping force of the sun faction.
 
“no proper military of earthborn yet, don’t aim to kill.”
 
he enters the town, soon enough finding himself greeted with pitchforks and a few rudimentary militia weapons they ususally used against bandits or changelings.
 
“i have heard intersting things about this town, i came to see wether that was accurate.”
 
Mayor: “we have declared for earthborn, you magicians can only cause suffering wherever you go!”
 
“the name of our noble house is not hyperbole, every foal knows this world cannot be without us. YOu have thrived under our protection, is this your gratitude?”
 
“We will not die under the command of you egotistical Mages!”
 
“you will pay your dues to the kingdom and the memory of the sisters, and be it in chains… you are under arrest for capital treason.”
 
this of course kicked loose the fighting, not that it was a battle by any proper terms, the townsfolk had heart… but they had nothing else. Oddly however the soldiers withdrew, leaving fireshine to be surrounded by them. something they could have probably realized, boded ill for them.
 
the mob cheered at having captured a proper mage, a fitting offer to earthborn who delighted in making a show of executing these sorts. the cheers became screams when red hot chains formed from the ether and enwrapped their legs and necks, scalding their form into flesh forever, on those that could bear that pain anyways.
 
“having you as citizens was clearly not the right way anyways, you are evidently too dumb to be left to roam free, you’ll work off the debt you made, for as long as it takes… don’t make retirement plans.”
 
with he pain making them all but unable to hold weapons anymore, the soldiers moved in and the entire population was arrested, the town condemned and burnt as the army left. one does not simply declare independence in the face of the sun’s wrath.

Fireshine was commended for his quick and decisive action, however the attention of Canterlot was solely focused on the war. It had entered into another stalemate, and the leaders were busy trying to find a way to break the stalemate. Whoever found a way to do just that would no doubt be generously rewarded.
 
The answer to how to solve this stalemate might be solved by looking to the past. A few days ago Citrine Spark mentioned something about ancient civilizations that were hinted at in old tomes and texts, perhaps she might be on to something. At this hour she should still be in the library, probably continuing her research

ah yes, a stalemate, the default state of the war as all houses moved with immense care, except cloudsdale but they could not dig in on the ground for long anyways. Quite frankly he hated the fact that even their power could be matched by the other houses. Efforts to properly reclaim equestria always ground to a halt from commanders’ incompetence or enemy competence, or sometimes simply two forces being too evenly match to not bleed each other dry and refusing direct engagement.
 
as sitting in a camp and glaring through a telescope at the camp of an enemy commander, who in turn glared back through his own spyglass, was not in fact a task he found interesting, he decided to look up that same archeological enthusiast, he remembered from school.
 
Sure it was an odd time to divert ressources to such things when there was a war effort to supply, but at the rate things were it was really the least boring task available.

Citrine Spark was busy in the deepest and darkest part of the library, reading ancient scrolls by candlelight. Her table was a mess as books and scrolls were strewn about.
 
These scrolls were so old she had to use her magic to hold it up, lest the scrolls be ruined. They spoke of legends of various civilizations that the history texts never spoke of.

“you could ask in a few apprentices to aid in the preservation and levitation spells, or bring someone to illuminate without a flickering candle.”
 
he approached without much care to sneak up, she had been a crush of his in the academy but she was not particularly interested, too set in following the hoofsteps of archmage sparkle.

She almost jumped out of her skin at hearing him, she had been so transfixed on her studies that she didn’t hear him come in
 
“Oh! Fireshine! I didn’t hear you come in. Yes I probably should get some help, but I’m pretty much done with my studies. I probably spent two straight days reading every book in this dusty place. But it was worth it, I was able to cross reference accounts made by old ship captains and have discovered at least two ancient civilizations dating to a time before Princess Celestia! And these weren’t petty tribes either, oh no! They were full blown empires with giant monuments to their gods

“The monuments themselves probably won’t help us unless we can move them here, however…from my studies of ancient civilizations, only civilizations that are strong can have the time to create monuments. So…you know what I think? I think these non-Unicorn civilizations must have some magical artifacts that gave them the military power they needed to make their empire. I think it would be in our best interest if we send an expedition to investigate these civilizations. I know of one that’s located in the Zebran Desert. Apparently the Zebras weren’t always restricted to living in tribes, but were once an advanced people. What’s more, I even read a scroll that hinted the Zebran desert used to be a lush grassland.”

“which would imply someone genuinely killed the land… that’s a lot of power needed to do that.  
Those civilizations might be an excellent find indeed. i have my battalion awaiting orders, small enough to not be missed at the front, good enough to get you there and back safely, if you have a reasonably exact location we can move out soon.”

“I do in fact.” She sits up and goes over to a map on a wall. It was a map of the Zebran desert and Saddle Arabia.
 
“It took a long time, but I managed to estimate where the capital might be.” She pointed to a circle in the middle of the desert “This May look like its impossible to get to if we go there directly, but if we move from well to well, oasis to oasis, we should have enough water to make the journey. However…there is one small problem. Funding. We’re going to need the help of mercenaries from Whitegold. I sent a few messages to one of our emissaries in Manehattan and he managed to get into contact with a mercenary who can take us by sea to Saddle Arabia. From there, he and his men can help us with the locals. He said he had dealings with the Saddle Arabians before.”

he thought for a few moments. Funding would indeed be troublesome, the rich and famous had booked it for manehattan when the whole mess kicked loose, and Blueblood had gotten himself killed by that black widow Rarity, let’s face it, no one believed she wasn’t involved in that “accident”. however a few families remained, bits that had not gone into whitegold coffers yet. surely finding one or two treacherous nobles was possible, he’d have to speak to a Lunar commander about that… better yet, bring them on board. Polaris, another longtime school friend was practically made for such a task.
 
“I will speak with a friend of mine, i’m sure we will have the funds needed within a week. you get us a whitegold contract we can be sure won’t flake out on us. won’t serve us any if once we find the city he and his mercs stab us in the back and run off with whatever artifact there may be.”
 
in fact he had plans to do the very same thing in reverse, but that was only for him to know for sure, they’d also probably destroy a number of waystations on their return trip to make sure no one else EVER managed to make the same journey without tanker airships full of water, that specific thing was hard to come by even in peacetimes.

“I’ll tell the emissary the deal is on.”
 
A few days later, Clive received his next assignment. House Whitegold was curious about this little expedition and wanted to know just what House Moon and Star are up to. Clive would have to assume one of his many identities for this assignment, this time he would have to be Captain Corsair. Captain of the Sea Lion, a fast ship that’s also heavily armed. Now he sat in the captain’s quarters as he waited for Fireshine and his group to come.

fireshine came, but a second battalion had foremd up together with his, house moon and star lived up to its name, this second force had Lunarian specialists, a number of ponies at arms guarded carts with supplies, while the heavily outnumbering gold dressed forces of the solar side surrounded a few armored carts, probably the payment or similar valuables.
 
Fireshine: “an airship… looks to be a destroyer, expensive, but efficient. at least we’re getting our money’s worth.”
 
a much paler unicorn stallion next to him looked straight at “Corsair” shining blue eyes boring into his own.
 
“i didn’t expect an esteemed privateer such as you to answer our request, a simple guide and guard job seems a bit too… low key for someone of your reputation.”

“You flatter me sir, but I should inform you that the trek to Saddle Arabia is treacherous even without all the pirates. With a long voyage like this, you’ll need the best. My ship and crew are the best you’ll find, and in these days you never know what dangers you’ll come across.”
 
Citrine Spark looked at the airship and squeed a little, she always read about them and had always wanted to ride on them. After a few hours they eventually managed to load up everything onto the airship and set sail.
 
A few days later they were directly in the middle of the ocean as they continued their voyage. It was incredibly cloudy today and dark, the crew looked visibly worried that a storm might occur. Meanwhile, Citrine was up on the deck looking down at the sea floor while “Captain Corsair” steered the ship while using the compass to navigate

the sun and moon units were taking turns in watches, the sun soldiers openly friendly, the lunar soldiers more aloof.  
Polaris largely stayed out of sight, until you actively wonder where he is, then you’d find him at some railing, looking overboard.

 
Fireshine himself meanwhile approached the captain.  
“looks to be a rather impressive storm… either mother nature is trying to make a point, or house stormwing grew wise to a juicy target.”

“I hope the most we’ll run into is House Stormwing.” He said cryptically as the Air ship began to try and move away from the storms. Suddenly they see shadows in the clouds, the captain looked on with wide eyes at the shadows before ordering everyone to man the cannons. Citrine looked a bit surprised as the sailors and marines rushed on deck to their stations.
 
The shadows finally emerged from the shadows, revealing themselves to be airships but something was off abkht them. There were three in total, with the lead being the largest. Each flew the flag with the cult of laughter symbol, put on full display to instill fear in the hearts of any who saw it.
 
Captain Crimson Smile giggled to himself as he saw the Sea Lion, he was afraid that today was going to be boring but it looks like he found some new friends to have fun with. He couldn’t wait to bring a smile to all their faces with the help of his trusty knife, Mister Sharpy
 
Laughing Dead shambled on the deck of Captain Crimson Smiles deck doing simple tasks while the still living crew performed more complicated tasks like the loading of cannons

“what in the burning pits is the cult doing out at sea?” the soldiers of Sun and Moon were seemingly affected, though Fireshine was having none of it.
 
“HEY! everyone here remember your training! this is a Destroyer, housing two battalions of Sun and Moon and that’s not even factoring in the experienced and hardened Privateers around Captain Corsair, they have numbers, but on the tight space of an airship that won’t help them, quite the opposite. ready yourselves, when we come in range a few firebombs will make quick work of these clowns, and of the actual cultists too in all likelihood.”
 
with that said and a resounding OORAH from the sun soldiers they readied themselves at the railing, either to repel boarders, shield gun crews or shoot back.
 
Polaris: “shadows of the night, show the cult why they should not have hidden away from the sun.”  
his words were little more than a whisper but they seemed to carry into everyone’s ears.  
and as it faded from mind one of the cult ships lurched, turning and ramming into another, a black dressed figure seen at the wheel before disappearing. similar acts of sabotage seemed to happen all over the cult battlegroup, though their flagship was unaffected there was chaos in the rest.

The smaller air ships crashed to the sea floor but the flagship was unaffected and kept advancing. The Sea Lion then turned hard right in order to give the gun crews a clear shot. Ten cannons then fired simultaneously and hit the rotting ship. However, the damage appeared to be minimal despite its rotting appearance. Captain Crimson Smiles then turned his own ship to give the Sea Lion a taste of his own firepower, and 20 cannons all fired their volley and hit their mark. The Sea Lion held with minimal casualties, it’s Hull was made of the best lumber money could buy and none of the cannon balls could break through. The two air ships continued trading volleys but neither seemed to be doing much damage. Then, Captain Crimson smiles sent in his Pegasus raiders to try and destroy their balloon keeping them in the air. The Marines on the deck then opened fire at the approaching raiders making their way to the balloon
