It has been a little over a year since the changeling Shade began living in the small town of Ponyville. Accepted by his neighbors, respected by his new friends, seeing his best friend happy, and, above all, loved by his special somepony, Shade's life has never been more enjoyable or comfortable.
Of course, that doesn't mean there aren't hardships ahead of him, and Shade and Winter are about to take on the greatest challenge of their lives.
But unbeknownst to them, rumblings within the Changeling Kingdom begin to stir...
There's only so much failure a changeling can tolerate. For Shade, once was enough. Years of training and preparation in the hopes of achieving a new life for himself and his colony wasted because of the negligence of their leader. It's time to try a different approach; if force won't work, then maybe peace and diplomacy will. What could go wrong?
A chance encounter in a creepy forest; A tree filled to the brim with books; A brief and sudden rain shower. These are all things that will change Shade's life forever.
