Author's Note

Whenever she sees Grandpa Gruff, Gilda, Gallus & Gabby for periods her PTSD will last for a while.......seeing a griffin triggers the memories of her two ambushes, the griffins she's killed who begged for mercy, and the slaughter of civilians in the crossfire.

Escape and the Griffin Kingdom Conquered

Jade blasted a bright light which Gruff had time to cover his right eye whilst his left eye became blind from such intensity of light he swore and yelled, "kill that pony!"

Jade reacquired her sword and dagger and fought her way to the edge of the camp and launched a large flare and teleported to Canterlot. She though battered managed to five directions to the whole griffin army.

Luna and Celestia gathered the whole army and sent for Shining Armor and Redheart led what groups she had and converged on Gruff. The battle was bloody, the Griffin fell back to griffin stone though orders were given to spare civilians many were killed because they got caught in the crossfire. Griffinstone lay in ruins the political leaders had power reduced to a bare minimum and Celestia made it clear that if a single squad or battalion was raised she'd have Griffinstone leveled and razed to the foundation. Gruff agreed and Jade glared as she walked by. The war ended after several years of fighting and she was able to serve in the last few months of it. She'd gave Celestia her resignation and went home to have some peace. Though she still has an episode of PTSD it became frequent when griffins began to show you near Ponyville.
