Great job on the new lore content, Red. It's all really awesome, and I especially like the Battle of the Red Plains narrative. Love all the new stuff about diamond dogs and their part in the war.

It's like reading a novel, then being able to roleplay a character in said novel. Awesomely awesome! Also, more lore for me!  |

It seems that you have accomplished something well worth the effort and came out with an equally proportionate product. The lot of the lore itself serves as a motivation for our characters and although there's only a couple of plot threads going on at a time, it shows that anticipation can build, making way for these stories to unfold in due time, but let the imagination flare on how everything is going to be affected by everypony and creature alike all over Equestria.
The Battle of the Red Plains was very engaging to read, giving insight to information that alluded to events of the current age in Celestial Divide, not to mention it seems like the individual who is speaking sounds rather familiar, but I won't post any guesses, but that will be revealed when the time comes. I also like how much detail was put into it, I could envision the entire battle in my head, the dragon getting torn apart, the march of those powerful canine warriors, the decree of no bloodshed between ponykind or griffons -- it was all descriptive and VERY clear in my mind.
The Shield Walls are simply fantastic. Who ever thought of the strongest Earth Ponies to form a dangerous, immovable wall? YOU! That's who! ...and you also did it well. I wonder if one of those earth ponies from The Shield Walls would have strength similar to that of Iron Shoes? Just an amusing thought, to say the least. Overall, loving they're design.
and as far as the Prism War goes and the Prismatic Dragons...wow. Wouldn't want to get near one of those. Reminds me of the Weapons from FFVII....made to restore harmony if things got out of hand...well, hoof. That being said, I can only imagine only those who have enough strength to combat one, preferably a group of seasoned warriors...but I doubt it. I'm guessing Ouroboros himself could take one on, but he's busy being King of his own domain.
But seriously, FANTASTIC job! I really like it whenever you update the lore, and it constantly serves as a reminder of why I joined CD in the first place: the complex story.
