War of empires
The obsidian empire which harrased settlers has been dealt with using highly addictive drugs. A group of kirins flew in a airship offering settlements of obsidian empire these drugs. However due the high addictiveness of the drugs and severe withdrawal. The obsidian empire has decended into chaos. With those refusing to use the drugs flying to somewhere unknown. However there was a bigger threat looming.
Seeing the increased demand for transgender surgeries, the regional administration of Acrab has send four unicorns, with standard factory equipment and raw adamantium to build a organ growing facility.
The four ponies were named: Beril Daydreamer, Latte 'Jack' Serenity, Diamond sight, Pure 'Scepter' Flitter. However a alicorn by the name of Monsoon 'Agisalt' Right has soon joined them as well, contributing to the couse with his incredible social skills and medical knowlage.
A basic settlement settlement was build with a wide storage room and stone walls to keep hungry predators out. The base hed a simple but efficient conveyer belt system that delivered harvested corn to the freezer where it was cooked by a machine into simple meals.
They managed to capture a duke from the shattered empire. They interogated the duke, who explained to them that the shattered empire is waging war on magic users since they see magic as: "An abomination to be reviled and cleansed from existence. Mage's manipulation of higher energy goes against natural order. Killing an enemy mage is justified regardless of the circumstances. Allowing a free mage to reside in the world is a mockery of our beliefs. Mages should be put to death quickly or enslaved until they can be disposed. The use of magic is absolutely forbidden, and mages are hated."
Feeling that a biggot like this one is unlikely reformable they got a idea. Since they are trying to build a self sustaining organ growing facility, nobody would question that they have few extra organs in their storage. So everypony except the facility leader agreed that they should harvest his organs. Unfortunutly this was slightly before Agisalt joined their cause, so they hed Beril do it, who made mistakes when operating.
After harvesting his kidney, lung, eye and arm; the facility leader insisted that the enemy duke is given a proper trial. The colonists agreed and gathered around indeogram of their imperial symbol. The trial consisted of the leader and the duke shouting accusations at each other. In the end the duke was declared guilty and was given an execution which could only be descripted as "satisfaing". Feeling like justice was served, The colonists than took the duke's corpes and buried it right outside the facilities entrance, to hopefuly send a message to their invaders.
After this they managed studied magic togather and build two organ growing vats inside a tight sterile room. In these growing vats they started to grow the first pair of reproductive organs.
The magic hating invaders didn't get the message on the grave outside their facility, or they did and just interpreted the message wrong. They send more soldiers to raid the organ growing settlement and failed each time since they could hardly penetrate superior pony adamantium armor.
Wanting to play the hero, Jack decided she was going to execute a couterattack against the shattered empire. However Jack didn't know a thing about medicine so she decided to bring Diamond with hem, she doubted she would be able to do a counterattack with just a adamantium knife so she took Agisalt's stable rifle and the two head out south.
The two arrived at a base of the shattered empire and there was over fifty soldiers! They were just hanging out outside their small buildings. They wore armor and kevlar clothes with some of them wearing visage masks.
Jack moved towards the base and just before they spotted her she casted a fog of torment. The fog killed 8 soldiers while the rest ran towards them with their weapons ready. Diamond hid behind a hill while Jack tried to get behind cover to shoot the enemy soldiers. Diamond stabed any soldier trying to flank them while Jack did her best to deflect bullets shot at her. Jack was eventualy down after a bullet pierced through her armor and hit her kidney. Diamond finished the job by more stabing, kiling half of them, the soldiers decided to run away. Diamond wasn't sure why they decided to run away when they hed him surrounded behind a hill but he wasn't complaining since they are alive.
Pathing himself and Jack up, Diamond decided to check the base for anything valuable. Diamond found two glowing orange swords, two vials of pink substance and some a pair of expensive looking clothes so he took them. Not wanting to risk reinforcements arriving he took Jacks weapons, carried jack and head out home back to the organ growing facility. On their way back they noticed a tiny pink building on their way, entering the building there was concreate floor and a blue suit. They took the suit and continued.
When they arrived the first pair of reproductive organs was grown. Beril inspected the two vials they brought with them and concluded that it was herm serum, strange that a soldier who abhores magic hed expensive potions that transform a pony into a hermaphrodite. Since Jack and Diamond were in love they drank the herm serums togather. After this they decided to have a wedding ceremony to make their love official
A human has arrived to the facility injured. Agisalt has put the human in a room and harvested the humans heart, killing him and then cremating his corpse. The harvested heart was then used to transplant Jack's ill heart.
For this facility to be successful, more growing vats would need to be build. However the current electricity production is not sufficient so a second geothermal generator was build.
It was decided that the shattered empire hed to be dealt with so Scepter and Jack build a tranport pod launcher and shoot themselfs where they belived were bases of the shattered empire. They managed to find multiple bases of the shattered empire inside tropical rainforrest south of Acrab colonies and destroy them. They knew it wasn't all of them but they didn't want to travel too far from their facility, so they returned after walking back for 8 days. They are safe from the shattered empire for now but the shattered empire is still present on the planet fighting for control.
The native ponies on this planet have offered them a quest to take care of a ill donkey in exchange for gold and a uranium bed. Why a uranium bed? no idea. They accepted and took care of the donkey.
After accepting the quest they noticed a small tribal outpost being established. They destroyed this settlement and liberated a earth pony named Small Gold, who worked as a nurse. Small Gold belived some nonsence of the tribals. So they all gathered around the imperial symbol and explained to him the way of harmony.
Content producing reproductive organs they have decided trying to produce jewery too. After figuring out how to craft jewery they have send letter to the regional administration, informing them of the shattered empire's invasion.
The regional administration has forwarded the letter to emperor Bigpip who ordered a airship attack on shattered empire's settlements on Acrab, with himself on one of the airships. The airship bombardmend resulted in 361 dead enemy soldiers and two airships being destroyed. Those two airships hed a crew of 30 ponies.
Following that a gootraxian assault took place which saw 100 soldiers killed and 24 gootraxians deceased.
Seeing the results; Bigpip hed consulted military command. The military command wanted to test a armored ground whicle which they manufactured 55 of. The whicle was a chemfuel powered armored automobile on tracks, with a cannon and a ballistic machinegun. Bigpip approved to use these whicles in the next assault. The assault of armored whicles ended up killing 920 enemy soldiers before being all destroyed.
Seeing the enemy was weak now, they lauched a infantry assault to finish remains of the shattered empire. The final push killed remaining 310 enemy soldiers and resulted in 91 casulties
That should deal with the shattered empire. At least for a while, should they attempt to colonize land we claim they will be dealt with quicker, hopefuly.
