Manehattan is an old city. There aren't many surprises or mysteries left in it, except for what mysteries the ponies that live there make.

It's been a month since Nightmare Moon's passing and Luna has retaken her rightful throne. Her transition is marred by a small problem: she's fallen in love with Celestia.

Lavender Staar spends her days trying to find a good job but hasn't had much luck yet. Fortunately, she gets called to Canterlot Castle for a job interview by Princess Celestia along with others to work as a janitor. It's not much, but it would help Lavender feed herself. The castle and the land surrounding it feel...off, however.
