(Story extract)

Before my magic sparked to the radio, however, the automated broadcasts voice crackled out to be replaced by a much less comforting one. Good morning Northern Equestria, this is the good Doctor Cherry Cove. He spoke in a flat, eerily calm tone. Many of you may be wondering what the blast was just a few moments ago. This was a test of the recently reconstructed and re-enabled Megaspell firing mechanism, or Megaspell Mary, as it had been deemed before the war. Now, you neednt worry, this weapon is only to be used when absolutely necessary, as per my bidding. There was a bit of scuffling, sounding like some papers being tossed aside and adjusted. However, this necessity is going to come with some sacrifices. If youll indulge me for a moment, theres a little bit of a history lesson I have. Doc cleared his throat as I looked over to Twintails, both confused and nervous. His matching expression certainly was not helping any…

One hundred and ninety years ago, two great empires were at war: Equestria, and the Zebra Empire. Now, Equestria proclaimed itself to be a kingdom of harmony, though you can take a look around and see how well that turned out. There was another shift of papers. And yet, even after these bombs fell, Equestria refused to change. Zebra containment and execution, Ghoul deportation and murder, anything they could do to remove these lower life forms was done. Well, were now able to balance this out. Any city having previously shunned those different will face swift eradication. Ill be formally starting with our once great capital, Canterlot. Any town leaders wishing to remain on the map will simply need to contact NEAMO for annexation. Otherwise youve got two days. Docs voice faded into static.

I immediately bent to the radio, my horn sparking into it. Alright, need to get this message out fast. This is Minty Candy and Twintails, requesting assistance. We are attempting an assault on the Northern Equestrian Artillery Megaspell Outpost, coordinates: 44.8 degrees north, 91.5 degrees west. Please note, this is a severely dangerous expedition, only those excelling in combat should assist. Repeat, requesting assistance for a direct and full assault on NEAMO. My magic died as the emerald charge pack dried out, leaving me drained. I pulled out another energy cell and plugged it into my temple, waking myself up a bit. Twintails looked over to me, a little appalled.
