During a trip to Las Haygas, Twilight meets a unique stranger and discovers a long-forgotten form of magic that may prove to be more trouble than it's worth.

When you have no one else to turn to, when all Fillydelphia PD can turn up is dead-ends, when it’s eleven ’o clock and you don’t know where your foals are, who do you turn to? Ragged Wings Detective agency, that’s who. Don’t let the smell of burnt coffee fool you, when it’s all on the line there and there is no one else to turn to, you can count on Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy, private eyes.

For a fee of course. What? Don’t look at me like that, Flutters! Want to find out if we can still work if our power gets shut off?!

Dashie, please... I’m, uh…sure we can work something out if they can't pay…if that’s okay…

After months of pleading and begging, Rainbow Dash finally relents and agrees to go with Fluttershy to see the next Butterfly Migration - This time near the eastern oversea town of Canterbury. The shy Pegasus could never be happier.

Setting forth on a train, across the wild and rolling hills of Equestria on their journey over the sea
But as it turns out, the Migration becomes the last thing to cross their mind as the two pegasi are thrown astray into a dangerous land. And one small yellow Pegasus finds herself quickly out of her element.

When Rarity has Twilight over for tea, she learns her friend has a big confession to make. But what is really going on here?

When sorting through a horde of ancient artefacts Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash accidentally activate the magical powers of a pair of bracelets which force the wearers to be in constant physical contact with one another. Stuck together until Twilight manages to find a way to remove the bracelets, the shy and timid pegasus must cope with re-emerging feelings, while the athletic and rash pegasus must cope with the various antics of a bunny rabbit out to get her.

Twilight looked over to her dear mentor, Princess Celestia, and found she had once again fallen asleep mid-lesson. Her intense debate on awakening the princess was cut short when the decision was taken out of her hooves.

“Huh? Oh. Twilight, I am so sorry for falling asleep again. I think we need to reschedule this for tomorrow morning.”

Twilight nodded. After all, Princess Celestia was obviously overworked. If only there was something she could do to help.

Up at the top of the sky, where the air is thin and the mares' tails clouds drift, a pegasus can find peace. It’s a place every pegasus should visit, but a place Rainbow knows the earthbound Fluttershy has never been. A tale of adventure down a path paved with the very best of intentions...

A year is made up of four seasons, each with its own identity and experiences. These same four seasons can be said to describe the life of a relationship. The relationship between Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash rises and falls with time, but through sadness, hardship, joy, and laughter, they both love each other with a depth that cannot be fathomed.

This is but a glimpse into the life of that love, told over the course of a year – a year of four very different seasons that span a lifetime.
