One night at the Treehouse of Harmony, a changeling youngling appears. But not just any youngling. This was an unreformed changeling. That would mean that she wasn't around for the event now known as the Metamorphosis. But where had the egg been, and who was the mother? The possibilities are narrowed down to one changeling. And it has been over a decade since she was turned to stone. But how she only showed up now isn't the strangest thing about her.

This changeling youngling appears to have odd mutations, the most evident being that her appearance and magic bear a strong resemblance to Nightmare Moon. But something seems... off about that resemblance. But it was not unwelcome. Nightmare Moon's magic contained no Malice.

As more theories are made about the origin of this strange Nightmare Moon mutated changeling, the evidence simply doesn't seem to properly add up. There's still a piece of the puzzle missing. But what?

While Princess Twilight and King Thorax work together to find an explanation for the youngling's existence, she is put under the care of Ocellus. The first order of business was a name... Selene. As Ocellus and Selene bond over time, will Ocellus even be willing to part with Selene when the time comes? Or was her small taste of motherhood enough to make her feel the pain of losing a youngling?

Set roughly one year after the epilogue, which I have it taking place 10 years in the future.
