It started with the Cutie Mark Crusaders. They got lost in the Everfree Forest, but that was the least of their problems. As the night set in they encountered a strange pony, a cannibal. As Luna comes in to help she realizes that this is only the beginning. The Mare's Tales are coming to life again, bringing about all the horrors that go along with them. The ponies all know that, soon, there will be a war to fix this, for if there is not one, the world will cease to exist.
