The Sun Rose At Midnight

by Headsplit
An Equestrian soldier watches a Changeling Hive burn in the night.

The Great War draws towards it's end.

The forces of the United Ponies Alliance advance on the Changeling heartland.

Before them stands the great Hive City of Vraks, the main producer of almost all war material which fuels the Queens Heer. Vrakian Changelings, renowned for their stubbornness and warlike nature, are unlikely to give up their hive without a drawn out fight.

Hoping to solve both problems, the Equestrian Royal Air Force decides to undertake the largest bombing raid of the entire war. Hundreds of aircraft whose sole mission is to wipe Hive Vraks off the map. Under cover of cloud and darkness, they'll drop thousands of tons of explosives and incendiary devices on the war forge of the Queendom.

One Equestrian soldier gets to watch this raid first hoof.
