[i]Request for important item denied. Equestrian Empire shown as too untrustworthy to have an act of faith, as we did with the AIF. Your diplomats aboard our ship have hereby been taken under custody, and are being used for the beginning of the preservation process. Surrender arms or face another enemy on the field of battle, but this time to save your race, not destroy it, however untrustworthy or thoughtless your races are. 

Your safety is not priority in this operation. If we must do what we must with dead bodies, we will. We have before, and again, you are not the first or the last to do so. Surrender peacefully, as your Equestrian legacy so loves, or go down violently, and show to everyone that you have been liars and followers of a false doctrine.[/i]

Half of the Corvette formations, about 4,500 ships easily 5 times bigger than a traditional fighter, descend through the atmosphere to the Equestrian soil, ready to peacefully or violently preserve.
