Canterlot, Royal Palace Gardens

Celestia Solar Genesis, the true Queen of Equestria. Sat on her rump in the green luscious grass of the garden’s courtyard listening to the mulling speech of a noble tactician and former captain of the guard now General of the Equine Task Force, Shining Armour was spouting nonsense about her unnecessary cause of action to incinerate a valuable asset to the griffon civil war that had dragged Canterlot’s and the Crystal Empire’s forces unwillingly into because of a faulty trading route that was discovered to run right underneath the front lines and was one of the many passages Celestia had traversed in Donavan’s lair.

Nodding occasionally and frequently looking to her younger sister Luna Apollo Genesis, the high priestess of the Inquisition formally an exile after failing to comply to formal orders in the council and allegedly assaulting a government official, her temporary banishment to the Everfree forest served as punishment, now she guides a small line of scribes and war ponies to scrounge up ways to build weaponry and armoury for the JPOC (Joint-Pony-Operations-Corp) in turn sat and intently indulged her compliance to listen to the white stallion in front of her.

After quite some time of discussing a meagre means to deal with the resisting onslaught of innocent ponies and griffons, Celestia had an idea that may have bested many but also may not bring a total end to the war. A mutual agreement silenced the verdict. ‘Now, listen to me carefully because I am not really in the mood for a ripe discussion of politics and other measly inconveniences. With my known knowledge of the galaxy that surrounds us and everything in it. I have dipped a little deeper in some of the old testaments in the holy bible we had uncovered among the remains of that poor washed up fool from the Free verse beyond our solar system, in what lies a holy trove of galactic warriors who will willingly lay their lives down for the good of all-kind’.

Celestia raises her muzzle to the stars beginning to appear in the sky then locks them on Shining Armour as she further explains her endeavour to put an end to all pain and suffering, even if it meant by her cause of action to bring an inter-galactic force from another world to fight with her against the ever-growing civil now world-war 1 & 2 style conflict. Luna shuffles in snuggly just beside her sister and covers her mouth with a hoof and whispers into her ear ‘With all due respect Tia’ but I think such a drastic example of overthinking should be eliminated from your reverie, I do like the sound of the idea. But, is it practical... we do not have such technological advancements as the books you were reading, in order to achieve a way to travel to this “Free verse” as you call it then we would have to develop something quickly or risk perishing on the front lines or with your idea... in space and I don’t think you of all ponies could stand the coldness of space unlike me who unlikely was planted flank first onto the moon and sat there with an oddly bright flag on a golden metal pole’.

Breaking off from Celestia’s smoking ear and giving a slight smile to Shining Armour before quickly excusing herself, Luna stands upon her hooves and steps into a ready stance before disappearing in a puff of black smoke. Leaving the temperamental ruler to contend with an evasive mind and the general of the ETF with a more than intrusive behaviour as he was already to begin to ask questions as to what the two sisters were discussing, he was rewarded with a snarky grin and a face full of smoke as Celestia had already left him to attend to some much needed rest and some extended research into space flight travel, because where she were to embark next will change Equestria’s fate if not all of pony-kind’s fate.
