Set six years after season 6, Occupied Equestria presents an alternative history where the Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while a former Equestrian colony - soured to Princess Twilight's notion of harmony with all creatures because of their encounters with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestrian Southeast, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and corrupt creepy politicians threaten the city. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.

Silver laughs a little. "Not really, no."
He looks over at how Skies is still only half-laying down on the bed. One of his ears falls to the side of his head in confusion. "Do you not want to lay down on bed? I imagine it would be more comfortable for you."

She pushes her legs onto the bed, and pulls herself with her forelegs into the bed, presumably closer to Silver

Silver takes another sip of his wine before scooting a little closer to Skies in turn. He seems to enjoy the close company. "What other great leaders did Nimbusia have?"

“Well... let’s see. There was Strategos Manetiades who defeated an invading army of Griffins at Maresthon. There was the heroic defense against a huge invading army of Griffins by king Leoneighdas at Thermoponylae. He and his 300 Hippeis died, but it gave time for them to regroup. Much later, Lysimanechus led an army into Zaphzia, but that was defeated. There was even a philosopher and historian, Xenohoof, who lead a large group of Nimbusian Mercaneries to Katerenburg to fight in a civil war for a claimant there”

Silver once again is enraptured by her glorious wingspan and her beautiful wings. He reaches out to feel along her marginal coverts of her left wing with the soft frog of his hoof. "You do your warrior-philosopher ancestors proud, I would imagine."

I mean, she seems to be a family outcast as far as she knows. I'd believe she needs some more warrior-like wins over her enemies to get that.

And thus Skies' wings were touched by a rather fluffy pickle-skull, who finds the soft feeling of the feathers on his frog pleasant. Silver's horn alights in its characteristic blue glow, and forms a magic field around the length of the feathery appendage he is currently in the process of admiring the hell out of. It feels rather tingly.
Silver, meanwhile, still desires to learn a little more about Skies' home. "What about your people's philosophers, then? Do you remember any words of wisdom that have been passed down by them?"

"Oh yes, there were many, even in the time I was alive there. There is Heraclopus, who emphasizes the duality of the world. Demarecritus, who proposes that all is made up of atoms. There was Hippocrates, who deconstructed arguments. But the greatest of them all is Aristrotle, who recently died, who taught of the order in Nature, and how it can be followed by means of virtue."

His ears perk up at the mention of each pony. He clearly wishes to hear more, but he doesn't seem like he knows who to ask about first.

She smiles
"Aristrotle was himself the student of the great Hippo, who had his own ideas about how we come to know things and metaphysics, but it most well known for his ideas about society. His nephew, Speushippos, is still alive and is a good and loyal follower of his. Basically they explain why the caste system is, was anyways, essential to operation of society"

Here's another one: Specify what kind of legends you want to know. Be it gunslingers, buff lance ponies or even the best mare warriors if you want to stroke her ego.

"Hard to Decide huh? Any about Dashing Rangers saving maidens?"

Skies responds like Richard Dawkins when asked to give the full 21 word title of Charles Darwin's "On the Origins of Species by means of Natural Selection, or the survival of favored races in the Struggle for Life."

I'll take this downtime to say keep your current plans for Iron if you had them. I really don't know what I want from this tbh so I can't really comment on what to add or remove.
Just in case you were straining your head trying to provide something you haven't thought thoroughly.

"Well... there is the myth of Marecles, who had to complete a number of tasks to redeem herself for killing family members in a rage. It is said that she first had to kill the Manticore of Cleon. It bit off part of her hoof, but she strangled it with her bare hooves. She did so, and wore it's hide. Then, she had to slay the nine headed hydra. No easy feat, but she was no ordinary mare. The Oracle next directed her to to kill the golden king of New Cervus. The Golden King was a viking raider over much of south Ioneighda. She chased him for a year, and eventually was able to lame him, then kill him. The next task was to kill a dangerous magical boar, With the advice of a centaur to trap it in snow, she was able to do so. The next task was to clean the stables of Airopoli - no easy task. She diverted the river to do so. Next, she had to kill the Skarmori - a group of parrot raiders. She frightened them with a rattle, then shot them with arrows covered in poison from the hydra. The next task was to capture a prince of Asterion, who was causing unrest in that kingdom. The next was to track down a group of cannibalistic mares lead by Queen Diomares. She was able to capture them, then goad them into killing and eating Diomares, which freed them from their lust for equine flesh. In another task, she stole a saddle from a queen named Hippoly. In another task, she stole the cattle of an Arimaspi, a fierce giant. The last two tasks involved stealing apples from a group of powerful unicorns, and finally, none other than taking Cerberus from the gates of Tartarus."

Silver chuckles to himself. "I can see why you particularly view him as greatest.
"You mentioned Demarecritus and atoms. How long ago were they born?"

Silver looks...impressed? Astonished? It's hard to place exactly what he looks like he's feeling, but it's something along those lines. "And hundreds of years later, we would start to split atoms for...something. Amazing..."

I wonder if Nimbusian soldiers educate themselves in such things and if they work like city states like in Ancient Greece.

"To Prove myself and to Say that i was able to do it."
The Pinkness of Dark Stars Cheeks shines through his fur, he looks like he has had a lot to drink.

Silver takes a full-on drink of his wine. It's a fair enough answer for him. "It is such weird idea, splitting atoms. They are supposed to be building blocks of universe, right? What everything is made out of? What happens when you split them? Do we even want to know?" He takes another drink, finishing off his second glass. His alcohol blush has intensified quite a bit, covering a wide band across his snout cheeks. He looks down into the wine bottle to see how much is left.
