Mountain Rising
"We should have died out there…"
"Can't complain that we didn't, brother,"
"We bled and suffered, while Celestia did nothing,"
"If she sent a search party, do you really think they'd make it?"
"Instead of a search party, why couldn't she just do what she was supposed to do? Protect us."
Havelock, a soldier leading a mercenary group made up of unicorns, pegasi, bat ponies and earth ponies, was sent on a mission to defend the frontier by Celestia herself. While he was successful, the cost was great and his entire unit was presumed dead. Having returned six years later, Havelock and Celestia now have an air of distrust that could go as far as ending one of them. Things only prove worse when Havel's worst enemy returns to finish what she started. However, Havelock, having never met Luna until now, greatly admires the beauty of her nights, and her own beauty as well. But many are asking "Will this, too, only make things worse?"
"If you fall in love with that alicorn, Luna, then, unless you put your faith in Celestia again, you'll be in some deep, deep trouble, my friend," -Tosh's warning to Havelock.
Chapter 4 not yet complete, but I'm allowing others to leave suggestions as to what could happen.
