As a reward the king of Equineland gave him his own kingdom to rule, and so Relnex but down his sword and picked up the quill. He would rule for 40 long peaceful years before his son Silverwing took the throne, but Siverwing wanted more power and more land for his kingdom so he made war on equineland and conquered it in only 6 months.

He then made war on many other kingdoms conquering them and enslaving them over the years Siverwing's bloodlust only grew stronger and stronger until he made a grave mistake he killed the mother of a young but powerful unicorn and was defeated in a duel by him, and banished forever. He was never heard from again but his son Goldclaw proved to be a benolent ruler who freed all the slaves and brought about a 100 year peace that would help give the world a chance to recover from the devastation wrought by Siverwing The Merciless this was known as the golden age of the imperium.

But when his grandson Blitswave took throne war began once again Blitswave would conquer countless nations all up until be came to the small fledgling nation of equestrian the horrors he wrought on the poor ponies of equestria would eventually clame his life. A small foal servant who watched his family be behead one by one before become Blitswaves personal slave killed him by slitting his throught while he slept . With no heir to throne the many lords and generals waged war on one another to get the throne, in the end the empires once invincible army was crippled and nation after nation freed its self from the Imperium's age old rule forcing it back over the ever free forest and for another 1000 years war was the way of life until finally one unicorn Red Blade destroyed all his rivals in one glorious fell swoop uniting the shattered land under one banner at last this stallion was once like any other young foal full of life and happiness as he grew up the world around him became darker crueler but he sought out to fix it make it better, rebuild the old imperium and return it to its golden age a age of peace and happiness.
