Star Dancer ne s'est jamais servi de la vue de la guerre. En tant que courrier pour la bourse, elle n'était pas inconnue avec elle - l'ensemble de Equestria était dans un état de conflit. La situation politique semblait changer avec le temps, et il y avait les menaces constantes de la Culte Rugissante, des madmares, ou pire. En tant que tel, la mort était un événement courant.
Mais Dancer a toujours été malade par l'odeur des morts.
Elle venait d'arriver il y a quelques jours à Earthborn avec les rapports de Scroll et la lettre de Sliver. Après avoir été dédouanée, elle est allée au Dodge Junction Technical College. Dean Spoke a emmené le pegasus dans son bureau, si l'étalon lui a dit la nouvelle - Un Alicorn a été vu à Applelossa!
C'était une grande chance, car Dancer n'avait aucune idée où ces eaux torrentielles auraient pu être. Sweeper a fait une supposition basée sur les précipitations inhabituelles dans Earthborn quand Dancer a mentionné l'étrangeté. "Des sons comme Rain font son travail," dit Sliver. -- Je me demande, va-t-il transformer le désert en jardin? Mais maintenant qu'il y avait une confirmation, Dancer avait un endroit pour commencer.
Le doyen avait plusieurs assistants essayant de localiser le Torrential, et voulait que le pegasus aide. "Mes devoirs ici m'empêchent de partir. Cependant, avec votre rapidité et votre connaissance de la météorologie, vous pouvez aider dans la recherche. Et ma chère, vous avez aussi rencontré la Dame, et cette Eau peut être plus susceptible de parler à un ami de sa famille." Comme beaucoup de pegasi, Dancer a pris la météorologie comme un degré mineur.
Donc elle est partie, d'abord à Applelossa pour trouver des indices. De là, ses recherches l'ont emmenée à la campagne. Là, elle entendit des histoires de poney étrange, marchant toujours, portant un manteau et un chapeau. Et les tempêtes étaient à proximité s'ils ne le seraient pas normalement.
En s'éloignant de la vue gorille, Dancer a hurlé. "Si ce n'est pas un signe, je suis sur la bonne voie, alors je ne sais pas ce qui est."

 Plusieurs nuits plus tôt... 
Northgate était calme tôt le matin. La lune était basse dans le ciel, et les étoiles commençaient à s'estomper au crépuscule, bien qu'il fût encore assez sombre. Le brouillard a commencé à se former à l'extérieur de la ville. La ville fortifiée semblait être le seul endroit paisible sur le sol de Stormwing.
Puis soudain il y eut un fort crash de verre éclatant, le bruit de sifflets a été soufflé, et puis le son fort d'une cloche d'alarme. Bientôt les lumières de la ville ont commencé à s'allumer en succession rapide, alors que divers citoyens se réveillèrent de la raquette. Les gardes enragés furent choqués par leurs ennuis, tandis que d'autres furent émus du lit et commencèrent à se préparer à la bataille.
Les gardes de la porte est s'attendaient à ce que le combat vienne de l'extérieur. Ce qu'ils ne s'attendaient pas, c'était qu'une alicorne éclate à travers la porte autrefois solide de derrière eux. Plusieurs, qui étaient debout devant la porte extérieure, ont été mis de côté par la jument de chargement. Ils ont été stupéfaits comme l'alicorne chauve, avec un Earthpony sur son dos, trotté dans l'obscurité brumeuse. Ils étaient encore plus confus à la porte ruinée - le chêne fort et l'acier a été coupé si proprement en petits morceaux. Comment cela a été fait n'était pas connu - car la défense n'était entière que quelques instants avant sa destruction.
Name:Crashing Wave ( The Unbreakable)
Species: Alicorn
Gender: Male
Appearance: Crashing is heavily built with sleek serpentine quality to it. His fur is silky smooth and incredibly short to reduce friction between him and the water. His fur is white and darkens to azure at his hooves. Crashing's wings are sleek and waterproof from an oil his feathers produce. His eyes are striking bright green. His mane is cobalt blue and cut short . His tail is long and set into three braids, each set with a silver harpoon hook at the end. Crashing's cutie mark is the black silhouette of a roaring sea dragon around dark blue tidal waves. Crashing also has a tattoo of twin coiled dragons around his neck. His only form of clothing is series of belts made from enchanted leather to hold his weapons.
Spheres of Influence: The Sea and Tide, Freedom, and the Leviathans of the Deep.
Abilities:
-Crashing is able to turn his body into water at any given point in time. He can also summon large amounts of water and use them for an array of spells. He can create constructs from the water that are copies of predatory creatures of the sea.
-The Leviathans, ancient monsters of the deep answer to Crashing's beck and call when he is in the Sea.
-Despite his use of his magic Crashing is adept with a blade. He wields a pair of twin scimitars he has dubbed Theras and Artesc, named after the demon dragon's he had slain in an age long since passed. These intricate blades were forged from their bones and are a trophy that Crashing Wave sports. As well he also finds that he enjoys using an arquebus, a weapon of Whitegold make that his followers had 'acquired', and after three months of practice he now holds a pair at his side at all times.
- Crashing Wave's most prominent spell is to run a current of pressurized water along his coat making an armor with the efficiency of steel.
Followers: Any that wish to shake off their shackles are welcome to join him. As well the sea ponies of the East sea look to himas their Patron God and gladly follow him His followers range in over two hundred.
Divine Blessing; The Sea's Embrace is the blessing he give to his followers. It allows them to breath underwater as the sea ponies do and swim through the sea as if they were a fish.
Seat of Power: Crashing is not one to stay in one place but he is often seen in the company of the Kraken's Fleet. A group of free privateers that are loyal to him and just as rowdy. They take up coastal residence in the Moon and Stars marine territory. they work with him to free any slaves form the passing vessels and give the unicorns a good taste of free steel.
Divine Flaw: With his lax, easygoing and, more often than not, cocky attitude Crashing very rarely takes anything seriouysly. He is also prone to acting before thinking anything through. Crashing is very trusting and will give anypony a chance should they ask it. Finally any flame that touches his skin can cause extreme pain and damage to him.
Goal: Crashing has decided to enter the Mortal Realm because of the slave trade that is running rampant in Equestria. He seeks to see to it that this is corrected one way or another. His enemy resides in House's Earthborn, Moon and Stars and Stormwing. He also hopes to find out why The Royal Sister's disappeared.
Other:
-Crashing had a special connection to the Lunar Warden and even held romantic feelings for her. The last time he had entered the Mortal Realm he had professed his love to her by linking his Sea to her Moon thus giving her power over the tide of the shores of the world. But it was met with mixed results. Celestia was furious at this and Banished him to the Sea's bottom for a hundred years saying that it was an Abomination that he felt this for Luna. When he was released he had found out that Luna had become Nightmare Moon and had been banished by the Elements. Crashing Wave went back to the Eternal Plane after that with but said one thing to her. 'I hope the day you Banished her your heart shattered as mine has.' He never returned to the Mortal Plane after that, until now.
-Enjoys the company of others and strong drink. Is an amazing Soprano too (In his mind).
-He also wrote the book on pirating.
