Help was not as hard to find as she had expected, and to couple her new found lieutenants with a powerful artifact that may even be enough to keep the Elements of Harmony at bay, there was surely no way she could ever lose. But when her moment of triumph came, they were nowhere to be found.

Now, a thousand years later, she must come to face the monsters she herself had created.
