As the snow falls across the land in preparation of Heartswarming Eve, ponies went about their business. Buying presents, cooking delicious food, hanging decorations. It was all apart of the upcoming holiday season. Even so, there were still some problems that would inevitably slow things down. A celebration was to be held in the Crystal Empire for the 5th anniversary of the kingdom's return, but something stopped anypony from reaching the northern kingdom. Heavy snow blocked the tracks that lead north, causing delays to come to Equestria's railways. And for most, this would put a major damper on the party plans. But as the ruler of the Crystal Empire, Princess Cadence would not let this stop her kingdom from being celebrated. And so, with the help of a friend, she sets of in search of an answer. But the answer she gets, is not what she was thinking of.
