So this RP is basically (I know how hard this will be) to come up with a story of what would happen in Anok if Star was killed before his first birthday.
Story: When Star died, Anok fell into a state of chaos. There had not been a black foal to survive this long since Nightwing, and everyone had a different version of the story, and a different attitude to what had happened. Needless to say there was a lot of unrest, and this led to the destruction of Anok as it was known. The five herds divided into 21 smaller herds, and there was war everywhere.
Now, over six years after the black foal's death, things are much better, but there is still a long way to go before this are as they were. Glacier Herd - led by a council constructed of many former over-stallions and lead mares - has set out to unite the divided continent. But despite the enormous progress they have made, challenges are revealing themselves in new and terrifying ways...
Herds of Alternative Anok:

Snow Herd- one of the original herds. They are a tough and hardy group that lives in the most northern tip of Anok.
Glacier Herd- made up of steeds from all over Anok. Their goal is to unite the herds by any means necessary.
Prairie Herd- a free and wild herd. They spend most of their days flying the skies above Sky Meadow.
Sun Herd- one of the original herds, but live in disgrace because they failed to kill the last black foal, almost allowing him to receive his starfire.
Feather Herd- is known for having steeds with the brightest most vibrant colored wings in all of Anok.
Jungle Herd- the only original herd to have completely reformed after having split, and because of this they are one of the strongest herds in Anok.
Night Herd- isn't really a herd because all pegasi live alone and have no formal leadership. But there are rumers that some of the steeds have started to group together as a herd once again.
Mountain Herd- one of the original herds in Anok, but managed to be a remain strong even after being divided.
Canyon Herd- they live among the canyons along the former Mountain Herd/Sun Herd border, and are very secretive.
Flame Herd Refugees- The last surviving members of Flame Herd - a group that apposed Glaicer Herd. They now live in hiding on Turtle Beach.

XDD. Never actually seen that, so I don't get the reference (sorry), but I'm sure it's a great one!
YAS! DO YOU SEE IT FLAMEFROST?!?!? DO YOU SEEEE THE MAGICS?!?!?!?
Wait, but Stormglade is a bully, and Canyongold is ... well, she's Canyongold. I just think of her as sweet and innocent, but with a distinct sense of right and wrong. I don't think she'd like a bully.
Of course, they're not my OCs. This is just my two cents.
XDD. Really?!
OMG. I JUST HAD A STUPID IDEA, HOPE YOU DON’T MIND RIVERBREEZE, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE STORMGLADE NEEDS SOME FRIENDSHIP x wink wink, nudge nudge x MAYBE, Canyonglade...?

Hmm. Since I was curious, I made this:
Wait, if Nightwing didn't capture them then would Frostfire and Larksong ever have had Starfrost?
Oh wait, I'm thinking of Starfrost, not Snowfrost.
Ooo, now Snowfrost has a cousin and an aunt
Oh, okay. Thanks!
Okay
No offence, but Shadowstar seem a little clueless about a lot of things
XDD. Canyongold doesn't really push things....She just waits for something to happen.
Don't drop out!! Things could get very interesting. Shadowstar will hardly even know that the fillies are fighting over him. He is a little clueless when around fillies.
Eh, me neither, I just want to see how this turns out

Goldenstream: "Aaannnd...ACTION!!!" -sits back and watches-
It'll be like Shadowstar is waging his silent war against Moonwing and Silverflame, wile the fillies are each trying to prove themselves to him, but Shadowstar is to busy being mad at his sire and brother to take a notice
This will be fun to see play out. I can only imagine the day they meet.
Oh, but I don't doubt that Ryefeather is more then a match forMoonstream's competitiveness
Moonstream is rather competitive, so tell Canyongold to beware xD
