Memoirs Of A Royal Guard
caligari87 for General Ironhoof
He's a warrior pony and a general, He's fought minor wars in the gryphon kingdom and he's a no-none-sense kind of general, he's wise beyond his years and takes action when called upon. He's served many years under Celestia's kingdom.
“You’re Stratus Knight’s boy? How about that! I’ll have had the pleasure
of serving with three generations of Knights. How’re you liking the
Guard?”“Oh, you’re most certainly a Knight. Good stallions, good soldiers. How
is your father? I know he hated to retire after that bad business with
the gryphons.”“That is the spirit! Well, son, you’re the Knight now. What did you say your name was?”
“Silent Knight. I like that. I’ll remember that, keep up the good work, son. Someday
Equestria is going to need the service of the Knight family again and
when it does, I’ll be asking for you.”
