A series of catastrophes have left half of Equestria drowning beneath the sea. In this war-ravaged world, Princess Celestia has turned into the tyrannical Daybreaker and announced her intentions to bring the world under her safe control. The mercenaries of the ship Rogue Diamond lead by Captain Rarity have mostly remained outside of the conflict. However, a survivor of the Canterlot flooding approaches them with the keys to restore Equestria.

This is inspired by the webcomic Rogue Diamond. I have seen pages of it on Derpibooru and kept getting ideas for my own MLP adventure at sea. My story and characters deviate largely from the webcomic.

The first chapter is sort of testing the waters (pun not intended) and seeing if this story sticks. If I feel like it's worth continuing, there will be Spike-shipping (not sure between who yet).
