Bright Haze: The Sky Dwellers
Bright Haze: Dweller issues
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI stood over the dead Dwellen king, bleeding and tired I stood spear ready for a Dweller attack. The guards had completely surrounded us and I gripped the peace treaty in my mouth. Spectra was about to lose his cool and completely destroy the city and everypony else had spears primed out.
"It was a fair fight, I won. Let us go." I said, trying to reason with them. The guards kept pouring into the castle. I guess this is it.
"Its been an honour." I said, Aeb nodded, as did Heart Breaker.
"Go down fighting." Nick said, readying himself.
"Always do." I replied, smiling, I moved around as was everypony else in our circle. More and more guards swarmed the building and I tripped on the kings body.
"Ready?" Aeb asked I nodded and prepared for an attack.
"Wait!" Somepony shouted, I cancelled the spear throw and looked to the grey pegasus in a Pegasus and tie.
"Wait! I say, my name is Dresbor, the kinds right hand pony, and I follow old Dweller lore, in that whatever you kill, you keep." The Pegasus said.
"Meaning?" I asked, then everypony in the room knelt down on their front legs, bowing, all the guards, everypony.
"You are now our king." The advisor said, also kneeling.
"Fuck." I replied.
"Now your highness, what is your first order?" The Pegasus asked shortly after an awkward silence of bowing was over, we all had are weapons primed on the guards who were now standing completely still.
"My first order?" I asked, the Pegasus nodded and I thought for a moment.
"For every weapon in the city to be melted down and the metal sent to Princess Celestia along with a peace treaty signed by my own hoof, and for the Sky Dweller army to return home and every single one to be discharged, every one of you warriors are to be unarmed, unarmoured and sent home to your families. Any pony found with a weapon will be sent to Canterlot to be dwelt with. I am your king and therefore i declare that the war between Equestria and this state is ended." I said, it was pretty cool to be king.
"May I advise against this?" The Pegasus said.
"And why is that?" I replied. Playing along with the role, I was never good with politics or being a king or any of that crap but this was pretty cool.
"Equestria is our enemy."
"May I remind you your new king is from Equestria and thereby ending the war. Now bring me the peace treaty to sign and send it as soon as I am done." I ordered, the grey stallion rushed off and I looked to my friends.
"Well this sucks." I said.
"What will we do? They wouldn't let us walk away, well, not you anyway, we're stuck here!" Spectra shouted.
"Not unless we go back to Canterlot and give this kingdom to Luna, expanding Equestria's border, and this is mining land, the metal income would boom our economy." Heart Breaker said. I nodded at him.
"There we go. Luna can have her own palace to rule and Equestria will grow stronger. I don't have to be a fucking king and we can all live in happiness." I replied, the advisor came back with a piece of sugarcane paper.
"I really advise against this." He muttered, handing me pen and paper.
"Oh and another thing, you are fired. Banished in fact." I said, hates I knew, but I wasn't on any good terms with these murderers. The advisor began to scream out and guards stormed him out. I began to write.
"From this day forward, I, king Bright Haze, declare that this state, the Sky Dweller Empire become a peaceful state wherein no weapon of harm be allowed and that one Princess Luna shall take control, mining shall take place and Equestria can have larger borders. I also declare that this kingdom shall never go to war with any other state harbouring ponies, again." I wrote, then read it out. Aeb laughed and I stood up, a guard ran over to me.
"Where are you going?" He asked, I looked the pony straight in the eye.
"Fuck off." I replied and walked out of the castle, followed by my friends, Nick grabbed up the peace declaration and rushed after us. We walked through the Sky Dweller city losing the gold armour as we did, just dropping it on the floor, blacksmiths rushed all over the place packing up wagons of gold and iron, whilst melting down countless weapons and armour pieces, ponies had pickaxe saddles attached to them and they flow out of the city to go mine some ore. Some ponies already heard about me becoming a king and would either curse or bow, some did both. I flow up ahead as did Aeb and Spectra, who looked overjoyed we were leaving, Nick climbed up, holding the paper and we flow out of the flying cloud city, ready for home.
