Walking away from his old life in Ponyville, a distraught pony enters the Everfree forest and into Nightmare Moon’s web.
A low cast earth pony unwittingly trapped in an Alicorn game; the game of the gods that will bring the realm to the brink of destruction.
To survive is to win, but against an Alicorn…?
Will he be her pawn, or emerge her knight?
The Road; The Important Journey:
The stray wants to belong, he wants to stay
The Nightmare invites him to play
He has never won a game
Much to his shame
If he rejects fame
Who will remember his name?
He will stay, and play
To her, he is merely, the prey
To him, her affection, is an obligation
He can never repay
Friends, could he betray?
To live, simply walk away
Leave the fallen where they lay
He’ll never see another day
Poor little Grey
He came such a long way.
