No.2005660 Once more, the heroes are called to gather in Canterlot Castle, in the throne room of Celestia.
As you arrive you observe the others present. You can recognize some of the attendants.
Commander Stormwind of Cloudsdale, along with his private guard.
Grand Grimoire the Arcane, current head of the Catnerlot mage Academy.
Dusklight, captain of the Guard of Canterlot.
Greymane, lead scholar of the Canterlot Royal Archives
And several heroes, many beaten and battered, but proudly showing their awards for their deeds of legend.
There
seems to be a moment of waiting before Celestia is scheduled to arrive,
if you wish to exchange words before taking your positions on the
raised podium.

The captain tells you it is his duty to defend Canterlot, with his life if he must.
His guards will form the Sun Shield, defending Celestia, and any that remain will patrol the city to keep order.
He
offhandedly mentions there was a minor disturbance not too long ago as a
group of ponies left town at night, headed north. They assaulted a
group of guards when questioned, but could not be found after that.
>>2005700
The
Mage Academy has studies the spell and made all possible preparations.
It is a powerful and difficult spell, prepared by far better unicorns
than those available, but the brightest minds of Canterlot are ready to
at least try.
>>2005702
You
are told that the Griffon King has prepared an airship to aid in the
coming battle, and three clans of dragons stand at Celestia's side.
>>2005732
Crossbow is fine and in complete working order.
>>2005734
All
possible preparations are ready. The only ones missing are Cloak and
Dagger, also knows as Celestia's Eyes and Ears, or in less formal terms,
the heads of her spy network.
But those two go missing a lot anyway.

he is sure that won't betray us, and make him guard the Shrine of Tirek.

guards, then fled.

You take your positions on the pedestal, and after a moment of silence the main doors open.
Celestia
strides in. Her head held high and without any signs of the fatigue and
pain that have radiated from her in the past days. In their place, all
you can feel is determination.
She is clad in a golden suit of
armour, the greatest feat of craftsmanship any have ever witnessed. It
reflect the glow of her radiance, amplifying her blinding aura greatly.
Upon it's surface you see intricate details in the shape of carvings and
additional parts. You can see the insignias of Unicornia, Pegasopolis
and Earth of old, the seal of the Griffon King, the mark of Equestria
and sun itself.
At her right side marches the undead pegasus
Gracious Glory, Father of Heroes, raised from his tomb to serve one
final time. He is wearing the same armour he was buried in, but with
small changes. the centuries of moss and dirt have been cleaned off and
the dents repaired. Though still covered in rich verdigris, a single
new, polished element has been added. Where once the breastplate had a
carving of his motto "Only in death does duty end", there now reads
"Even in death I still serve".
On Celestia's left, the dragon
ambassador, Noise. She looks the same as ever, but is wearing a golden
rosary emblazoned with the signs of Celsetia, the Griffon King and her
own dragons.
The trio takes their place before the throne, and Celestia asks for silence.

motions for a few unicorns to step forward. They bow, and introduce
themselves. They are a special lot selected by the mage academy, and
they will act as a link between all the fronts during the coming battle
by serving as a hub for telepathic communication.

The
Griffon King says the airship Stormherald has been launched and is en
route . If their calculations are correct, it will catch Ironhide before
the dragon reaches Canterlot.
Another image appears next to the
King, a second griffon. He introduces himself as Skyburner, Captain of
the Stormherald. He thanks Commander Stormwind for his generous support
in the battle, saying the pegasus teams sent to aid the airship are
performing admirably. A unicorn mage stands next to Skyburner. Noise
recognizes him as Sheffield, one of those who helped her clan back in
the Griffon Kingdom.
Celestia thanks her distant allies, then turns
back to the party, handing all those present a pendant with a slightly
vibrating gem. These were prepared en masse by the mage academy to act
as conduits for the communication spell. As long as you wear it, you can
attempt to contact any other member of the war effort.
Noise
steps up and says she will be leading the dragons. Two of the clans are
roosting near Canterlot and can join the battle as soon as needed, but
the last is further away and will take time to get there.
Gracious
Glory then takes his turn, saying he has spent the last days training
ever soldier he can. He himself is ready to face Valiance in combat if
needed, but has understood that there is a plan outside direct attack.
Finally,
Celestia speaks again, saying that there indeed is a plan. She asks the
heroes join her in a little private talk. The rest are excused if no
other business needs to be conducted.

then inform you that you may investigate the conspiracy here in
Canterlot with the spy twins, return to the catacombs to see to the
necromancers, lead an assault against the deathseekers headed for
Tirek's altar, or join the dragons in facing Ironhide before he can
reach the castle.
The dragons will go regardless of your choice,
and will buy you all the time they can. However if you linger too long,
they might need to fall back, allowing Ironhide a clear path to
Canterlot.
Stormherald can engage Ironhide to buy time as well, but
without support Captain Skyburner fears it will be a battle he cannot
win.
The binding spell is ready, but needs a lot of time to be channeled.
The
Shard of Light is prepped, but it is such an insignificant fragment it
will have no effect unless Ironhide is weakened first.
Celestia
herself will act as the last line of defense, and will attack Ironhide
head on if he reaches the castle. She will not let her people die to
protect herself.
Choose where you wish to go, and what your plan is.
Mage Academy with the spies?
Catacombs?
Altar?
Ironhide, with Noise and Gracious?

ALTARS OFTEN HOLD FRAGMENTS OF THE POWER HE ONCE WIELDED. SHATTERING THE
ALTAR IS MOST LIKELY A BAD IDEA."

motions to a servant, who gets one of her sets of horseshoes. She says
she has no use for just three, you can keep all of them, if you just
please stop being so... clingy.
If nothing else needs to be
handled, Celestia has moved the mass teleport team from the Mage Academy
to the castle for safety reasons. You may use them to teleport to the
mountain, or hoof it there instead. Noise might be able to get you
dragon transportation as well, but that leaves her with less dragons to
face Ironhide with.

you pass the ranks of the straining unicorns struggling to relay all
the messages back and forth, you let your sight slip beyond this world
to gaze into the hearts of those before you. All seems pure, until you
begin noticing traces of darkness in some of their hearts. Temptation.
Fear. Greed. Desperation. Then you find the likely source. A heart as
black as a zebra's unwashed anus. As your vision returns to the real
world, you stare intently at the likely traitor. He is absorbed in his

As
you gaze into the mirror, you see the battle unfold. Three of the
largest dragons still alive are gripping with Ironhide. The pegasi and
landing on top of the colossal beast and hacking away at whatever they
can until they must fall back at it lashes out at them. Not all make it
to safety and two are torn apart as Ironhide's massive claw passes
through them with no more effort than passing through air.
Two of the
smaller mature dragons swoop in from below in an effort to attack
Ironhide unseen, but are caught in a torrent of dark flame. As the flame
dies out, their charred forms fall to the ground, twisted and mutated
by the corrupting power of the fire born from Darkness.
Noise herself
is keeping at a distance, trying to give orders to the others while
also keeping in contact using her crystal. Ironhide lifts his sight and
sees her.

As
you watch, dark clouds begin forming on the horizon of the image.
Mighty bolts of lightning rip the air asunder as the mighty storm rolls
forward like a tsunami of the sky. Riding just below it you see a great
ship.
Large propellers keep it aloft as long rods extend from the
hull to catch the lightning raging all around it. The decks are
bristling with guns and ballistas, and a large cannon-like coil
protrudes for the main hull. Griffons swoop around the craft and teams
of pegasi push the mass of clouds onwards, beating them with fury to
keep the lightning going.
The Stormherald has arrived.
Hearing the bell, some of the girls leave and hurry off. You can hear others leaving too from the other corridors.

You are absolutely transfixed by the battle that unfolds before you.
The
stormherald arms it's main batteries and unleashes a hail of metal
against Ironhide. The cannons, powered by the Black Spice of the Spice
Bears pack enough punch to blast away notable chunks of Ironhide's
armour. The mighty dragon loses some altitude and seems to roar in
agony.
As you listen in on your crystal, you can hear Captain Skyburner's thoughts on the event: "WHO'S DYING NOW!?"
The rest of you gather at the hall of trials.
Ten unicorns of varying ages await you there. For whatever reason the air feels very heavy with static.

As

She even has a weapon with her now. A flaming greatsword.
Gracious Glory stands next to her, silent for once.

Celestia smiles, then levitates one of her tiaras on your head. She is wearing a heavier crown with her armour.
She says you should take this one. Perhaps it will be more lucky.
>>2012022
You find a set of armour that more or less fits the dragon. That should keep it safe from a few attacks.
>>2012024
You find the torch-staff of Singebrow the Fireshepard. His control over flame was legendary. Perhaps yours will be, too.
>>2012042
You
find something better - the Guardian Heart - a pendant bound with the
same power that paladins tap into for their protective auras. It should
act as a second like of defence incase your own aura fails.
>>2012046
You
find a weighty shield hewed from volcanic stone. Born in the hottest
fire in the world, what hope can even a dragon's flame have to bypass
it?
>>2012123
She finds a very pretty dress. Of steel. A battle dress, if you will.
