Princess Twilight Sparkle went to bed one ordinary Ponyville night.

She woke up in the barren desert of Saddle Arabia, with no idea how she got there.

Twilight Sparkle lost the war with the sun. But once she is saved from the brink of death, she is caught up in an entirely different war more ancient than the princesses themselves, and one where picking a side is not quite as easy as it seems...

It's good she'll have a friend.

Rated T for fantasy violence and sexual references.
