A being named Eclipsal Shade arrives in Equestria after a horrible storm. He finds himself in the care of Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, with no memories prior to the storm. So he departs on a search to find his memories with the Mane 6, but pretty soon they find just how deep of a hole Eclipsal's old life had brought upon him. At the very end of the day, it will leave everypony wondering: What is darkness?

Set after Discord's reformation, but before Twilight becomes an Alicorn.
