(Co-Authored by Lithe)
The unsteady peace between the Kingdom of Equestria and the eastern Duchy of Anhalter has finally broken as Duchess Amalia von Anhalter refuses to continue trade of a valuable resource to her neighboring lands, stating Princess Celestia to be unfair in her dealings and declaring Equestria as her enemy. Reluctantly, the monarch of Equestria answers the challenge and sends her nation into battle.

Follow from the perspectives of both Starfire, grandfather of Spitfire, and inaugural captain of the Wonderbolts of Equestria; and Baron von Himmel, captain of Sons of Sleipnir, Valkyrie Wing.
