In this writing rehash of the Heralds of Valdemar series by Mercedes Lackey, Unice5656 attempts to introduce the idea of cool magical horses while Aetheo points out all the dystopian elements of the original story's system of governance and they end up with a story of creepy magical happy-land where magical horses subtly influence everyone to feel unnaturally positive about their country, and a main character who breaks through the rose tint.
