(Inspired by the premise of Samurai Jack. Updates every Thursday.)

Not everything went as planned when saving the Crystal Empire. Applejack finds herself thrusted three hundred and two years into the future, where King Sombra has seized back the throne and his evil is law. The humble farmpony is now tasked with navigating through a futuristic world of automatons, biodiversity, deception and general darkness, her only sidekick a sword made of the purest love and kindness.  

If she ever wants to return home, that is.

Not nearly as easy as it sounds, and it does not sound easy.

But Applejack wasn't raised to be weak.

Vinyl Scratch is becoming a pioneer of the underground Canterlot music scene, so a "brilliant" idea from her manager sends her to Ponyville to reach even higher levels in her industry - by creating folktronica. Despite the sheer stupidity (in her opinion) of such a task, however, it isn't the only one - she must also figure out new feelings she's started to have about the pony she now pays rent to: Applejack.

But, where exactly does the line between true desires and false dreams lie?

Scootaloo is called into the office for the fourth time in half as many weeks. Miss Cheerilee's student has, out of nowhere, become something of a minor delinquent, and the teacher knows there's something wrong - but, unless Scootaloo decides to cooperate, she may find out that some ponies really do want to "take care of themselves."

Connection is not only a way to come together - it is also a way to increase the distance.

An old man hears a strange noise on the marshland point, that very same point where he kneeled in tears almost thirty years ago. Could it be that the wait - his wait - is finally over?
