Historical Song: The Pegasus Princess Comes from another Land
The Pegasus Princess Comes from another Land a historical song known to one and all in the Equestrian Kingdom. It was a joyful song about the reconciliation and revival of the Clan, the great blessing.
To the founding ancestor Ka Seima, were thirteen children born,
Each became the head of their family and then the Chief of their Clan,
It was then that arose, a great rift between them.
History flowed on and several years passed.
The Fire clan was all but lost in the flow of time, on the verge of dying out.
At such a time, a certain guest visited the Equestrian Kingdom.
A Princess renowned from a grand Empire on the continent.
With hair of glowing platinum, like moonlight,
Skin translucent as the purest snow,

Eyes shimmering with wisdom,
She saw the worlds truth, clear and in entirety.
She spoke to her cherished horse,
Her ears attuned to the Pegasus ruling the sky.
The Pegasus Princess descended upon this land,
Witnessing the state of the thirteen clans, her heart stirred
She posed a question,
Why do the horses cry? Why do you make them sad?
Enraged, she mounted the Wind-Taming Heavenly Horse and subdued the people of the Equestrian Kingdom with her own hands.
In this bold act, she completely shattered the lingering grudges of yore.
Binding together the hearts long separated
The bond between the lone clan and the twelve, once estranged, was now rekindled.
Thus, the children of Ka Seima reunited as one, resuming their march together as one glorious clan.
It was a legendary historical song that made future generations wonder if it wasnt too much of an exaggeration. It was a very popular historical song in spite of being criticised by historians for its lack of accuracy. The people of the Equestrian Kingdom were proud of, yearned for and loved it more than any other song.
The quiet prelude to the magnificent overture was about to begin.
A few days after the historic meeting with the Fire Clan concluded, a message arrived from Chief Mayun of the Forest Clan.
There will be a meeting of the Clan Chiefs. Well, that was to be expected.
After hearing from the messenger, Malong let out a deep sigh and then decided to gather Mia, Rafina, and the other concerned parties for a meeting.
I have received a message from Father asking me to bring the representatives of the Fire Clan to the Clan Chiefs meeting.
I see. So thats what happened. Hmm, then how about we handle it like this?
Malongs words were completely within Mia and Ludwigs expectations. Therefore, Mia presented her flawlessly prepared plan, which was 90% pure Ludwig.
In other words, the plan was to reconcile the Fire Clan with the twelve clans, protect the women of the Fire Clan, and then use that as the basis to drive a wedge between the Clan Chief, Ka Maku, and the Serpent Priestess. It was a strategic ploy.
Malong nodded, impressed by the idea of undermining the enemys objective to fight.
As expected of you, Miss Mia. Did you have it all planned out from the start?
Hehe, well, my vassals are excellent.
Mia replied with a smile.
She would never definitively claim that it was her idea, just in case the plan fell apart.
Chicken-hearted Princess Mia did not seek credit or honour, in exchange she did not want to bear any risk either.
I dont think it would be a good idea to have a meeting only between the twelve clans of the Equestrian Kingdom and the Fire Clan. If there are any Chaos Serpent members who have infiltrated the twelve clans, it would be disastrous. Said Rafina.
Indeed, if Roufa or Aima were killed by an assassin posing as a citizen of the Equestrian Kingdom, then the path to reconciliation would be closed off.
If that were to happen, the entire plan would fall apart.
There are probably members of the Forest Clan who dont like the idea of associating with the Fire Clan. Some of the elders view the use of wolves as dangerous. If possible, I would like to request that you provide guards for protection again.
Yes, certainly.
Since Mia had promised Abel that she would bring Valentina back, returning to the Empire was no longer an option. In that case, Mia thought that it would be better for her to move with Malong than to stay in the village.
I think we should leave a fighting force in this village as well. From what Ive heard, the Serpents seem to be a pretty bad bunch.
Thus, the course of action was set.
Five elite members of the Princess Imperial Guard, along with around ten warriors from the Forest Clan, would be deployed to the Fire Clans village. However, if the Serpent Priestess force consisted of men from the Fire Clan, it was hard to imagine that they would harm the women of the village.
Rather, the real danger lay with Aima and Roufa, who were to attend the meeting of the Chiefs.
Well, with Dion-san and the Princess Imperial Guard, we should be fine, right? I believe Sir Grammateus is also quite strong.
If it came down to the Wolf master and Dion-san, Dion-san is probably stronger. And even if the Fire Clan warriors joined the enemy, the situation ought to still be manageable.
Either way, they had made all the arrangements they possibly could. It wasnt a plan that Mia had devised, but rather something that Ludwig had come up with. Mia simply gave her stamp of approval, thinking that she liked it, so there was nothing more for her to consider.
Even if the enemy tried something, they should be safe, but for some reason, Mia could not get rid of a sense of unease.
Well, in any case, Abel is worried about his sister, so we have to do something about the Equestrian Kingdom as soon as possible.
With renewed enthusiasm, the group set out on their journey. The destination was the Southern Capital of the Equestrian Kingdom.
