The horseman

"It has been three months since the battle at Applaloosa, it is there where we made our final stand against the armies of the Burning Plains. The beasts have be beaten and thrown back to the hole they crawled out of, though, if anything, we were lucky to have won. Many injuries were sustained, hundreds of solider's were killed, Celestia herself was blasted by magical fire, she is now bandaged with third degree burns, even I, with all my magical power was wounded, my back leg was broken by a hammer. With time it is healing, but it is difficult for me to navigate Canterlot now. The memorial services were held today, the captain of the guard as well as two hundred solider's were honoured today, another homage was payed to the creature that gave his life to defend Equestria, Celestia knew we were outmatched, in the first few days of the attack the enemy burt several towns to the ground. Celestia learned of another dimension that mirrors ours, there she discovered strange two legged creatures called humans. They are a non-magical race and do not posses the ability to fly, but they are quite strong, Celestia found a human who she believed strong enough to help us combat our foes. She transported him to Equestria and managed to convince him to assist in the war, he was gifted with magical powers many of which were taught to him by me, time manipulation, teleportation, to my surprise he mastered the art of magic very quickly. In addition he was gifted with a large stallion as a steed, this horse was a creation of my own, it was fast, strong and loyal to it's master. As a final gift he was given a sword, a light, powerfull blade that reaped many a solider, this human was killed in the Appaloossa battle, he decapitated the leader of the burning horses and was then stabbed through the heart by an arrow. By the time we got to him he was riddled with arrows, his corpse was laid out in a crypt on a small island in the hydragon sea. Life is slowly returning to normal, as I speak, Canterlot castle is being repaired and the city is being rebuilt. Something however is still troubling me, I consulted my crystal orb earlier today, within it's depths I found a similar attack on Equestria, this battle will wage in the near future, once again a human creature will be needed to triumph. If this is the case I must find a way to assist my princess when this war is waged once again.
