Except for the occasional adventure, the ponies' lead pretty dull lives. Luckily, a certain God of Chaos wants to change that. He's got a story planned out for each of them and knows exactly what he wants them to do, say, and feel. But ponies aren't always the most cooperative of creatures, are they? Sometimes they just insist on writing their own stories! How can Discord deal with a group of equines who, despite the author's plans, just won't stick to the script?

Note: Based on "The Stanley Parable", an ingenious adventure game. If you haven't at least seen a little footage of the game, you might not entirely understand this story. I suggest looking up the game (you don't have to buy it, just learn a little about it) before reading this. It isn't 100% necessary, but if you're confused about any parts of the story, I highly suggest finding out more about "The Stanley Parable".

Lyra thinks Discord is an idiot for not thinking to dodge when the Elements of Harmony were about to strike him. Discord thinks this is the perfect opportunity for a game.

Through an unfortunate series of events poor wittle Woona ends up sealed away inside a young boy living on an entirely different rock.
