Leaf Blade wakes up in the Everfree Forest as a statue with a manacle covering his neck, a strange hunger and no memory of how he ended up there in the first place to a zebra and her earth pony apprentice.
A hundred years into the present day, Apple Bloom is sent into the Everfree Forest for some reagents but is ambushed by timberwolves and survives the encounter because of a magic necklace from Zecora. She eventually meets a hungry, furless minotaur wearing a heavy manacle on his neck.
