River Swirl, a young schoolteacher from Rijekograd, dreams of bringing prosperity and modernity to the River Republic. As a newcomer to the Harmonic Party, her political career begins with lessons - Pushing her boundaries, dealing with failure, and learning what being a democrat really means.

This takes place in the Equestria at War universe, before the game’s timeline. Minor creative liberties may be taken in telling the (unofficial) story of Best Pony.
