Heart Souls: The Loss of Harmony

The soft-spoken knight flies desperately towards her lover, hoping she can make a change. But there, the village was not recognizable, for the place where it once stood is a field with rubble and purple flames.

The heat from below would force the pegasi to land.

She would scout the scorched village. There, ponies bathed in purple flame roam its streets, wandering and screaming in agony.

And one was able to spot the pegasi.
It screamed and ran towards her; its face was in agony, enraged by the fate that was set upon it. Eternal flame.

The knight would easily dodge the desperate attacks of the burning pony.

" Rest now, oh pitiful soul."

A quick slash through the neck would calm the torched pony and release its essence.
It was bountiful, to the point that it overwhelmed the soft-spoken knight.

" Ouff! What in tartarus!?, urgh..." She struggled to absorb the amount of essence.

" Poison? Cough, cough!" She choked.

Flames began bursting through her pores and mane.

" I guess that too much is always bad for you." She then collected herself and calmly meditated. She focused herself and controlled the sudden surge of power and urges.

Her body began to heal, and her strength returned.

" How do I deal with this..." she pondered.

" Kill, i shall not then." She sighed.

She began sneaking through the ruined village that once was known as Appleoosa.

Broken pipes were spewing water; what remained was slowly burned by the purple flame. The roads were covered in ash and blood, mixed with rubble and the dead.

She'd end up covering her nose as the smog and smell of death permeated through the air. Making it hard for her to breathe.

" My love, where are you? What happened here?" She worried, now regretting not stopping him.

And there, at a distance, she saw her fellow royal knights, burning in purple flames. And at the center, where they roam, his loved one, spewing white essence, is pierced by spears and swords with the royal knights sigil.

" Whats going on!?" Her fury escalated.

She showed herself out in the open and demanded answers from her fellow knights.

"Answer me! Less you want a taste of thy blade."

Her fellow knights would only look at her and jitter and crack. They moan in pain while they continue to burn in a purple flame.

" Tsk," her answer unheard.

The knights began to move towards her and were attempting to grab her.

She would dodge and block their assault, avoiding killing them, so as not to get oversaturated by essence.

As she lured the knights far enough from her loved ones, she hurriedly rushed towards him and began pulling the spears and swords from within him.

As she does, it was unavoidable to absorb the white essence he was spewing out, making it hard for her to concentrate.

And as she removed the final spear, " my love, wake up!"

Boom!

He exploded, sending her through the air and crashing through a rubbled building.

She opens her eyes, in a daze and confused at what happened.

She stood up, confused but not badly hurt.

And there, in front of her, was her loved one stood. Her love bathed in a bright purple flame, scorching everything in its path.

She was forced to move back if she did not wish to be burned alive.

" My love!" She yelled at him.

The creature would just look at her.

The flames would then dissipate. And the purple flamed knight would charge towards his loved one.

" You dare break your promise to me!" The enraged knight yelled.

Clang!

His hoof and her blade clashed.

They began exchanging blows.

But clearly, the flamed knight has the upper hand.

This infuriated the pegasi, and she was encouraged to give it her all. She, too, began exuding flames from her body and wings. The clash between the purple flamed knights raged on.

Soon, the pegasi would realize that prolonging this fight would be disadvantageous to her.

" Oh fire, time for you to drown in my storm."

She focused her strength and dashed around the knight until she broke the sound barrier and caused a sonic rainboom.

The burst and turbulence of her storm would beat up and batter the knight, causing him and his flames to get choked out of air and eventually fainting her target.

She grabs her love before he can fall to the ground.

She hugged him dearly and flew off into the distance.

At a round table there, the warlord's weapon awaits his order, and at the back of the table, a throne made of gold decorated by the finest smiths is where the warlord Gallus sits.

To his left, there was an empty chair where Silver Stream should have sat.

" As you can see, I have made a grave error in my battles... and this would not stand.
Henceforth, I must take proper action against these knights who have mocked and shamed me. Forgive me, as your lord has tarnished his name. Henceforth, I will show this knights my full wrath and power. If you still deem me worthy, rise my weapons and join me in combat; we shall slay the knights."

The first to rise was Smolder, who splits all, a dragon that sides with the warlord. She has orange scales and stands tall from the rest of the group, her body filled with scars and battle experience.

She proceeds to talk: "She may be a bitch, but she's my bitch." She then lifts her Axe, thats twice her size and length.

" After this, I take her sit Gallus."

The next would be Ocellus, of the Shadows. A hooded changeling.
She just stood up and said no word.

Next was Lightning Dust, the fallen angel. A pegasi who has a knack for speed and battle.

" It has been long since you called for my service. Is this how you treat us? Just your play thing at your becking call? Gold won't be enough, warlord Gallus," she demanded.

The last who'd stand was Misty Breeze, the Lord of the Fogs. A tall Kirin thats green on her left half and the other, cursed with darkness and red vibrant fire.

"Time for mating season; I demand offspring, warlord."

" Avenge her, and all your demands will be given to you. This, your warlord promise."
